The Jugular Venous Pressure and Pulse Contour (1990)

Information that can be derived from an assessment of the jugular venous pulse includes determination of the mean venous pressure, venous pulse contour, and presence and type of cardiac dysrhythmias . The jugular venous pressure is usually assessed by observing the right side of the patient's neck. The normal mean jugular venous pressure, determined as the vertical distance above the midpoint of the right atrium, is 6 to 8 cm H 2O . Deviations from this normal range reflect either hypovolemia (i .e ., mean venous pressure less than 5 cm H 2O) or impaired cardiac filling (i .e ., mean venous pressure greater than 9 cm H 2O). The normal jugular venous pulse contains three positive waves . By convention these are labeled a, c, and (Figure 19 .1) . These positive deflections occur, respectively, before the carotid upstroke and just after the P wave of the ECG (a wave) ; simultaneous with the upstroke of the carotid pulse (c wave) ; and during ventricular systole until the tricuspid valve opens (v wave) . The wave is generated by atrial contraction, which actively fills the right ventricle in end-diastole . The wave is caused either by transmission of the carotid arterial impulse through the external and internal jugular veins or by the bulging of the tricuspid valve into the right atrium in early systole . The v wave reflects the passive increase in pressure and volume of the right atrium as it fills in late systole and early diastole . Normally the crests of the and v waves are approximately equal in amplitude. The descents or troughs (Figure 19 .1) of the jugular venous pulse occur between the a and c wave (x descent), between the c and wave (x` descent), and between the and a wave (y descent). The x and x' descents reflect movement of the lower portion of the right atrium toward the right ventricle during the final phases of ventricular systole . The y descent represents the abrupt termination of the downstroke of the v wave during early diastole after the tricuspid valve opens and the right ventricle begins to fill passively. Normally the y descent is neither as brisk nor as deep as the x descent. Abnormalities in the jugular venous pulse may be reflected in either the mean pressure, amplitude, or configuration of the positive waves or negative troughs, or in the sequence or absence of the positive waves . In this chapter emphasis is placed on measurement of the jugular venous pressure, use of the venous pulse to determine cardiac rhythm, and the more common cardiac problems of pulmonary hypertension, tricuspid regurgitation, and constrictive pericarditis .
CONSTITUTION OF ZIRCONIUM-PALLADIUM ALLOYS (1959)

Small additions of palladium increase the corrosion resistance of arc- melted sponge zirconium in pressurized water and steam. The phase diagram of the zirconiumpalladium system was established in the range 0 to 50 at.% Pd by means of thermal, microscopic, resistometric, and roentgenographic analysis and was investigated in a cursory manner in the range 50 to 100 at.% Pd. The following intermediate phases were observed: Zr/sub 2/Pd, ZrPd, ZrPd/sub 2/, and ZrPd/sub 3/ . The solubility of palladium in alpha zirconium lies below 0.1 at.%, that in 4bb-zirconium amounts to 11.5 at.%. The metastable omega phase occurs as a transitton phase in the decomposition of the BETA -Zr phase. (auth)
Are Injuries From Terror and War Similar? (2010)

This study provides evidence that substantial differences exist in injury characteristics and hospital resources required to treat civilians and soldiers injured in terror and war. Hospital preparedness and management should focus on treating combat injuries that result from specific causes-terror or war.

Action of low-intensity laser radiation on Escherichia coli. (1991)

The review deals with quantitative laws of monochromatic visible light action on the cellular level, as well as with the primary photoacceptors and possible light signal transduction chains in bacterial cell Escherichia coli WP2 trp-. Experiments described in this paper are a part of experimental work performed for explaining the molecular mechanism of low-intensity laser therapy. The existence of certain parameters of light (dose, intensity, pulse repetition rate, monochromaticity within the absorbtion bandwidth of biomolecules) for stimulation of E. coli WP2 metabolism has been established. The necessity for a certain physiological state of bacteria cells sensitive to irradiation has been shown. The sensitivity of bacteria to irradiation with monochromatic visible light has been proposed to be a delta pH-dependent genetic process.

Dye Sensitization of Nanocrystalline Titanium Dioxide with Osmium and Ruthenium Polypyridyl Complexes (2000)

A series of osmium polypyridyl complexes having various ground-state reduction potentials has been synthesized and used to sensitize nanoporous titanium dioxide electrodes to solar illumination. The spectral response and current vs potential properties of electrodes modified with these dyes have been compared with the behavior of their ruthenium analogues. The trends can be explained by the differences in absorption spectra and ground-state redox potentials. The osmium complexes appear to be promising candidates for further optimization in operating photoelectrochemical cells for solar energy conversion applications. Of the materials studied, all complexes having ground-state redox potentials in methanol more positive than ∼0.4 V vs aqueous SCE were able to sustain oxidation of I-/I3- with a high steady-state quantum yield. For electrodes with very low dye coverages, the open-circuit voltage was mainly determined by the rate of reduction of I2, whereas for high dye coverages, the open-circuit voltage depended on the nature of the complex and on the dye loading level.
Orbital, rotational, and climatic interactions: Lessons from Earth and Mars (1992)

Though variations in orbital and rotational parameters of the Earth and Mars are widely recognized as plausible sources of significant climatic variation on 10(exp 3) to 10(exp 8) yr timescales, many aspects of the connection between orbital, rotational, and climatic variations remain poorly understood. In general, the orbital histories are very well known, the rotational histories (especially for Mars) are very poorly known. A brief review is given of recent progress in computing orbital and rotational secular variations, and in connecting them to climatic change. The emphasis is on highlighting those areas that limit the present understanding. It is obvious that mass redistributions associated with climatic change (glaciation) are a source of crustal deformation and geodynamic change on the Earth, and may have played similar roles on Mars. It is much less appreciated, that rates, phases, and amplitudes of deformation of the deep interior of the planet can influence climate. The mantle and core, if decoupled, would precess at different rates, and even with plausible coupling strengths, some degree of differential precession is possible.
Introduction: advances in plant diagnostics - historical perspectives and future directions. (2016)

In 2006, the editors of this book co-authored a review entitled 'Advances in molecular phytodiagnostics - new solutions for old problems'. In this, they summarized the progress made during the first three decades of plant molecular diagnostics - since nucleic acid-based methods first started being used for the detection and identification of plant pathogens in the 1970s. In this introduction, the state-of-the-art in the mid-2000s (as identified in the aforementioned review) is compared with the current situation, assessing how this whole field of science has developed in the subsequent 9 years and where plant molecular diagnostics might be heading in the future. It has highlighted the rapid progression made during the last decade or so in turning these methods from being specialist applications, carried out by experts in centralized laboratories, into routine methods that are everyday tools for diagnosticians and, increasingly, for non-specialists.
Reducing the harmful effects of last-level cache polluters with an OS-level, software-only pollute buffer (2008)

It is well recognized that LRU cache-line replacement can be ineffective for applications with large working sets or non-localized memory access patterns. Specifically, in last-level processor caches, LRU can cause cache pollution by inserting non-reuseable elements into the cache while evicting reusable ones. The work presented in this paper addresses last-level cache pollution through a dynamic operating system mechanism, called ROCS, requiring no change to underlying hardware and no change to applications. ROCS employs hardware performance counters on a commodity processor to characterize application cache behavior at run-time. Using this online profiling, cache unfriendly pages are dynamically mapped to a pollute buffer in the cache, eliminating competition between reusable and non-reusable cache lines. The operating system implements the pollute buffer through a page-coloring based technique, by dedicating a small slice of the last-level cache to store non-reusable pages. Measurements show that ROCS, implemented in the Linux 2.6.24 kernel and running on a 2.3 GHz PowerPC 970FX, improves performance of memory-intensive SPEC CPU 2000 and NAS benchmarks by up to 34%, and 16% on average.
Autologous marrow recovery and sensitization to non-HLA antigens after HLA-identical marrow transplantation for aplastic anemia. (1983)

One hundred seventy-five patients with severe aplastic anemia were treated by high-dose cyclophosphamide and HLA-A, -B, and -D-identical sibling marrow transplants. Thirty-eight patients rejected their grafts. Four of the 38 showed autologous marrow recovery as determined by blood genetic markers. The remarkable feature of one case following autologous marrow recovery was the presence of unidirectional proliferative and cytotoxic responses of circulating host lymphocytes to marrow donor lymphocytes in mixed lymphocyte culture and cell-mediated lympholysis. Presumably these responses were the result of in vivo sensitization to those non-HLA antigens for which donor and recipient differed.

A community-based program to facilitate dental care for senior citizens. (1994)

This article presents findings of a one-year trial which examined a community-based program in Clinton County, Indiana, to help facilitate entry of senior citizens into the oral health care delivery system. A multifaceted approach addressed the senior citizens' limited knowledge of oral health care, personal barriers to obtaining dental services, and the community's concern for the health of older citizens. Program components included oral health education (newspaper articles, presentations, pamphlet distribution), personalized patient motivation ("Bring-a-Friend" campaign), and oral health screenings (public screenings and "Senior Day at the Dentist"). During the study year, 345 patients visited the dentist, compared to 179 in the baseline year. Ninety-three participated in the two "Senior Day" screenings, and 53 percent of the total 134 screening patients returned for follow-up care. Given its experimental nature, the program was a success.
Reducing System Artifacts in Hyperspectral Image Data Analysis with the Use of Estimates of the Error Covariance in the Data (2002)

Hyperspectral Fourier transform infrared images have been obtained from a neoprene sample aged in air at elevated temperatures. The massive amount of spectra available from this heterogeneous sample provides the opportunity to perform quantitative analysis of the spectral data without the need for calibration standards. Multivariate curve resolution (MCR) methods with non-negativity constraints applied to the iterative alternating least squares analysis of the spectral data has been shown to achieve the goal of quantitative image analysis without the use of standards. However, the pure-component spectra and the relative concentration maps were heavily contaminated by the presence of system artifacts in the spectral data. We have demonstrated that the detrimental effects of these artifacts can be minimized by adding an estimate of the error covariance structure of the spectral image data to the MCR algorithm. The estimate is added by augmenting the concentration and pure-component spectra matrices with scores and eigenvectors obtained from the mean-centered repeat image differences of the sample. The implementation of augmentation is accomplished by employing efficient equality constraints on the MCR analysis. Augmentation with the scores from the repeat images is found to primarily improve the pure-component spectral estimates while augmentation with the corresponding eigenvectors primarily improves the concentration maps. Augmentation with both scores and eigenvectors yielded the best result by generating less noisy pure-component spectral estimates and relative concentration maps that were largely free from a striping artifact that is present due to system errors in the FT-IR images. The MCR methods presented are general and can also be applied productively to non-image spectral data.
Evaluation of depression in infertile women using Beck and Hamilton test, Babol, 1999 (2000)

Objective: Infertility is one of the crises that can cause various mental problems such as depression that is stressful, but personal characteristics can influence the quality of response to infertility stress, which is important to be recognized in depressed infertile women. In order to study the incidence of depression in infertile women and comparing individual and socio-economic characteristics of depressed and undepressed infertile women who were referred to infertility center of Fatemeh Zahra (Peace upon her) of Babol in 1999, this study was conducted. Methods: This is a cross-sectional descriptive analytic study. 310 infertile women were selected from Jan. 1998 to Aug. 1999. We used questionnaires about personal characteristics, Beck and Hamilton depressive scales to obtain data. Findings: The incidence of depression in the infertile women was 50.6% (22.6% mild, 32.2% moderate and 4.8% severe). The average age of depressed infertile women was 26±6.1 and in undepressed group 27.1±6.1 years. The frequency of the following factors among severely depressed women has been higher comparing to other groups: Being a housewife, living in rural areas, low economic status, primary infertility and having the idea of considering infertility as a major problem in their family life. The severely depressed women were of lower educational level and have improper relationship with their husbands. 1% of infertile women had a history of suicide that was only observed in the depressed group. Conclusion: This study indicates that personal characteristics in the infertile women were different. Therefore, establishing counseling centers to identify them, to treat severe and moderate depressed women especially and providing a social support are important in physical and mental health.
Heterodimeric Bis(amino thiol) Complexes of Oxorhenium(V) That Mimic the Structure of Steroid Hormones. Synthesis and Stereochemical Issues (1996)

We have prepared a series of bis-bidentate complexes of rhenium that mimic the size, shape, and peripheral functionality of steroidal androgens. In a model system, we used 2D NMR and X-ray crystallographic analysis to show that adjacent N-methyl and oxo substitutents adopt an anti configuration during the coordination reaction. We have synthesized a bis-bidentate oxorhenium(V) complex whose structure and peripheral functionality mimic 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone. 2D-NMR analysis indicates that the N-methyl and oxo substituents are driven into the steroidal anti configuration (beta-N-methyl, alpha-oxo) by the beta-orientation of the methyl group equivalent to C-18. Thus, this metal complex provides a remarkable structural and stereochemical mimic of a steroid. Its in vivo stability, however, appears to be limited.
The effects of beta acids from hops (Humulus lupulus) on mortality of Varroa destructor (Acari: Varroidae) (2012)

Hop (Humulus lupulus L.) beta acids (HBA) were tested for miticidal effects on varroa destructor Anderson and Trueman, a parasitic mite of the honey bee (Apis mellifera L.). When varroa were placed on bees that had topical applications of 1 % HBA, there was 100 % mite mortality. Bee mortality was unaffected. Cardboard strips saturated with HBA and placed in colonies resulted in mite drop that was significantly greater than in untreated hives. HBA was detected on about 60 % of the bees in colonies during the first 48 h after application. Mite drop in colonies lasted for about 7 days with the highest drop occurring in the first 2-3 days after treatment. There was a reduction in the percentages of bees with HBA and in the amounts on their bodies after 7 days. Bee and queen mortality in the colonies were not affected by HBA treatments. When cardboard strips saturated with HBA were put in packages of bees, more than 90 % of the mites were killed without an increase in bee mortality. HBA might have potential to control varroa when establishing colonies from packages or during broodless periods.

Stability and Enhancement of Berry Juice Color (2004)

Attractive color is one of the main sensory characteristics of fruit and berry products. Unfortunately, the color of red juices is unstable and easily susceptible to degradation, leading to a dull and weak juice color. This study was designed to investigate the color stability and copigmentation of four different berry juices enhanced by phenolic acids and commercial color enhancers. Phenolic acid enrichment improved and stabilized the color of the berry juices during storage. The commercial color enhancers immediately produced an intensive color to the juices, which, however, was not very stable. The color enhancement was intensive in strawberry and raspberry juices and effective in lingonberry and cranberry juices. Sinapic acid induced the strongest color in strawberry juice. Ferulic and sinapic acids improved raspberry juice color equally. Rosmarinic acid enhanced the color of lingonberry and cranberry juices the most. The addition of the simple cinnamic acids produced novel peaks to the end of the high-performance liquid chromatography chromatogram, indicating a formation of new compounds. It can be assumed that sinapic and ferulic acids formed new intramolecular copigmentation compounds with berry anthocyanins whereas rosmarinic acid stabilized anthocyanins intermolecularly.
Development of a motion detecting system for respiratory-gated PET using laser optical displacement sensor (2003)

A respiratory motion during whole-body imaging has been recognized as a source of image degradation and induces distortions in positron emission tomography (PET) study. The aim of this study is to evaluate respiratory motion using lung simulator and to develop a respiratory motion detecting system using optical laser sensor. We utilized a commercially available laser optical sensor to detect respiratory motion during PET scanning. Each respiratory cycle is divided into 4 bins defined as average peak interval and irregular peak within the patient's breathing motion. The acquired data within the time bins correspond to different positions within the breathing cycle and stored for the post motion correction. Artifact of breathing motion was evaluated with the phantom study. In the images of a human subject, the blurring artifact due to breathing motion was divided by our detecting system. This technique improves the quantitative specific activity of the tracer which is distorted by the respiratory motion.

Short bowel syndrome and intestinal transplantation in children (2006)

The management should include therapies adapted to each stage of intestinal failure, based on a multidisciplinary approach in centers involving pediatric surgery, pediatric gastroenterology, parenteral nutrition expertise, home-parenteral nutrition program, and liver-intestinal transplantation experience. If managed appropriately, the prognosis of short bowel syndrome is excellent, with limited indications for intestinal and/or liver transplantation. Timing for patient referral in specialized centers remains an issue.
