Dual-frequency annular-ring slot antennas fed by CPW feed and microstrip line feed (2005)

The dual-frequency properties of a dual annular-ring slot antenna fed by coplanar waveguide (CPW) and microstrip feedline are presented and experimentally studied. The proposed antenna is constructed by dual concentric annular-ring slots fabricated on FR4 substrate with single feed. The proposed slot antennas have good impedance matching for the two operating frequencies with a frequency ratio ranging about 1.34/spl sim/3.11 and 1.4/spl sim/1.74 can be achieved for CPW-fed and microstrip-fed.

Drug-induced melanonychia usually affects numerous nails and appears as light brown to black pigmentation on the deck or nail bed with longitudinal, transverse or diffuse distribution. In previous cases, a number of chemotherapeutic agents such as azathioprine, bleomycin sulfate, cyclophosphamide, hydroxyurea and methotrexate were usually linked to melanonychia. Citri reticulatae pericarpium (CRP) is a traditional Chinese herb which is widely used in many foods and health care products in China. Up till now, there were no adverse reactions of CRP reported throughout the literature. Herein, we firstly reported a case of melanonychia in a 67-year-old man caused by CRP for external use.Keywords: traditional Chinese herb, citri reticulatae pericarpium, melanonychia
The Binding of Complement by Complexes Formed Between a Rabbit Antibody and Oligosaccharides of Increasing Size (1976)

Abstract Immune complexes formed between a homogeneous rabbit antibody to type III pneumococcal polysaccharide and a series of oligosaccharides of varying size derived from it were prepared and tested for their ability to fix guinea pig hemolytic complement. Antibody and either tetra-, hexa-, or octasaccharide formed only monomeric antibody-hapten complexes and did not show any complement binding. A dodecasaccharide and a 16-sugar residues oligomer formed dimer and trimer immune complexes. These complexes were also unable to fix complement. However, as the size of the sugar oligomers was increased to about 21 sugar residues per oligosaccharide molecule or more, the resulting complexes exhibited substantial complement binding, concomitant with the formation of antigen-antibody aggregates higher than trimers. On the other hand, an independent study carried out with the same material suggested changes in the conformation of the Fc moiety in the antibody molecule upon addition of oligosaccharide ligands as small as a 16-residue unit. Since the resulting complexes hardly exhibited any complement binding, ligand-induced conformational changes in the Fc part of the antibody molecule appears to be an insufficient condition per se for triggering complement fixation.
Prevention of superantigen induced down-regulation of T cell mediated cytotoxic activity by IL-2 in vivo. 1996 Accepted for publication in Immunology (1997)

Administration of staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) to mice induces profound activation, cytokine production and cytotoxic activity of both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, but subsequently activated cells are deleted or become anergic. This study demonstrates that administration of interleukin-2 (IL-2) can prevent sea-induced hyporesponsiveness in CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). Repeated injections with sea every fourth day resulted in severely reduced cytotoxic activity in the spleen, which correlated with a reduced number of sea-responsive T-cell receptor (TCR)-V beta 11+ CD8+ cells. Studies of purified TCR-V beta 11+ CD8+ cells showed that they possessed intact cytotoxic activity per cell compared with cells from mice given a single injection of SEA, indicating that deletion was the main mechanism for the reduced cytotoxic activity. Combined treatment with SEA and IL-2 increased the number of cytotoxic cells in the spleen after each SEA injection and prevented the down-regulation of cytotoxic activity. Increased cytotoxic activity could be related to increased number and proliferation of CD8+ IL-2R alpha + cells, suggesting that administration of IL-2 maintained IL-2 responsiveness among CD8+ cells. Studies of sorted TCR-V beta 11+ CD8+ cells demonstrated that combined treatment with SEA and IL-2 also increased cytotoxic activity per cell compared with treatment with SEA alone. Taken together, IL-2 administration in vivo augmented SEA-induced expansion of T cells as well as the cytotoxic activity per CTL, and prevented SEA-induced cell deletion.
Isolation and sequence analysis of the fatty acid synthetase <i>FAS2</i> gene from <i>Penicillium patulum</i> (1988)

The fatty acid synthetase complex of Penicillium patulum was isolated and shown to be structurally similar to other known fungal fatty acid synthetases. It is composed of two subunit, alpha and beta, each with a molecular mass of about 200 kDa. P. patulum genomic and cDNA libraries were constructed in lambda gt11 and EMBL3 vectors. From these libraries, the P. patulum FAS2 gene together with its flanking DNA was isolated. The cloned genomic DNA was sequenced over a length of 6357 base pairs. The coding sequence of fatty acid synthetase subunit alpha, being 5571 nucleotides long, was identified within this DNA segment. The FAS2 gene is a mosaic of three exons (514, 4949 and 108 base pairs) and two introns, each of 54 base pairs in length. Both introns were absent in the corresponding cDNA sequences. Like other fungal introns both contain an internal CTAAC sequence, located 10 base pairs upstream of their 3'-exon/intron boundaries. In addition, they have, at their ends, the GTCAAGT and TAG consensus sequences characteristic of all eucaryotic introns. Furthermore, two pairs of direct repeats, of as yet unknown significance, were found in the two P. patulum introns. The P. patulum FAS2 gene encodes a protein of 1857 amino acids and 204.5 kDa molecular mass. It is 90 nucleotides shorter than the corresponding S. cerevisiae gene. In both organisms, the FAS2 genes and their products exhibit a high degree of overall sequence similarity at both the DNA (63%) and protein (68%) levels. Therefore, the fatty acid synthetase alpha subunits of P. patulum and S. cerevisiae obviously contain the same catalytic domains in an identical sequential order.
Self-Assembled Monolayers of Eicosanethiol on Palladium and Their Use in Microcontact Printing (2002)

We investigate self-assembled monolayers on polycrystalline Pd composed of eicosanethiol (ECT). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveals a composition and structure of the ECT monolayer on Pd similar to those on Au: the sulfurs are close to the Pd and underneath the alkyl chains. Monolayers formed from a 0.4 mM solution of ECT in ethanol are 2.8 nm thick and have advancing and receding contact angles with water of ∼115° and ∼90°, respectively. They are 0.3 nm thicker than those on Au and have a surprisingly low receding contact angle. Monolayers of ECT microcontact printed onto 100-nm-thick evaporated Pd films confer good protection of the Pd in a ferrichloride wet etch. It is therefore possible to create Pd patterns with high contrast and with lateral dimensions smaller than 200 nm. The Pd patterns can initiate electroless deposition of NiB, NiP, or Cu but are difficult to use as a mask for etching a less noble metal such as Cu due to the formation of a galvanic cell during etching. Instead, this galvanic cell is helpful to accelerate strongly the etch of Cu underneath Pd to produce suspended, deformable Pd structures.

Enabling a Humanoid Robot to Interact with Multiple Persons (2005)

Showing attentiveness to people is an essential capability for a robot designed to interact with humans. Involving several persons into an interaction requires that the robot knows where the persons are relatively to its current location. Therefore, we propose an approach that maintains a probabilistic belief about people in the surroundings of the robot which is updated based on sensory information. Using this belief the robot is able to memorize people even if they are currently outside its limited field of view. Furthermore, we use a technique to localize a speaker in the environment. In this way, even people who are currently not stored in the belief of the robot can attract its attention. As we show in practical experiments, our humanoid robot is able to shift its attention between different persons. Even people who are not the primary conversational partner are included into the interaction. 1
AMYLOID PLAQUES IN THE BRAINS OF MICE INFECTED WITH SCRAPIE: MORPHOLOGICAL VARIATION AND STAINING PROPERTIES (1975)

Amyloid plaques in the brains of mice infected with scrapie: morphological variation and staining properties Cerebral amyloid deposits predominantly in the form of plaques are associated with experimental scrapie produced by particular agents in inbred mice. In this paper the staining properties and variation in the morphology of these deposits are described. At the light microscope level a discretionary classification into six types is made: shadowy plaques; amorphous plaques; stellate plaques; giant plaques; diffuse amyloid deposits; and perivascular amyloid deposits. It is shown that Masson's trichrome technique provides the most efficient staining method for identifying cerebral amyloid of all these types. A preliminary ultrastructural examination of stellate plaques confirms the presence of amyloid on the basis of characteristic fibrils and demonstrates that microglia and distended neurites are involved in the structure of the plaques. The similarities and differences between cerebral amyloid in scrapie and other forms of amyloid deposits in the brain, particularly kuru plaques and senile plaques, are discussed.
New physics-based analytic approach to the thin-oxide breakdown statistics (2001)

A new analytic cell-based approach to the modeling of the oxide breakdown statistics is presented. The new model has the same predictive power as the standard percolation approach and the advantage of providing simple analytic results. The scaling with oxide thickness of the Weibull slope and the mean critical density of defects at breakdown are accounted for correctly.

On-line 3<i>D</i>motion estimation using low resolution MRI (2015)

Image processing such as deformable image registration finds its way into radiotherapy as a means to track non-rigid anatomy. With the advent of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guided radiotherapy, intrafraction anatomy snapshots become technically feasible. MRI provides the needed tissue signal for high-fidelity image registration. However, acquisitions, especially in 3D, take a considerable amount of time. Pushing towards real-time adaptive radiotherapy, MRI needs to be accelerated without degrading the quality of information. In this paper, we investigate the impact of image resolution on the quality of motion estimations. Potentially, spatially undersampled images yield comparable motion estimations. At the same time, their acquisition times would reduce greatly due to the sparser sampling. In order to substantiate this hypothesis, exemplary 4D datasets of the abdomen were downsampled gradually. Subsequently, spatiotemporal deformations are extracted consistently using the same motion estimation for each downsampled dataset. Errors between the original and the respectively downsampled version of the dataset are then evaluated. Compared to ground-truth, results show high similarity of deformations estimated from downsampled image data. Using a dataset with (2.5 mm)3 voxel size, deformation fields could be recovered well up to a downsampling factor of 2, i.e. (5 mm)3. In a therapy guidance scenario MRI, imaging speed could accordingly increase approximately fourfold, with acceptable loss of estimated motion quality.
Study of Formulation Variables on Properties of Drug-Gellan Beads by Factorial Design (2006)

The aim of the present study was to obtain cross-linked calcium-gellan beads containing diclofenac sodium as model drug, using full 3(3) factorial design. Drug quantity, pH of cross-linking solution, and speed of agitation were selected as variables for factorial design. The resultant beads were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), percent yield, entrapment efficiency, micromeritic properties, swelling and drug release studies. The drug-loaded beads were spherical with size range of 0.85-1.8 mm. Percent yield and entrapment efficiency of various batches were in the range of 86.48-98.28% w/w and 72.52-92.74% w/w, respectively. Calcium-gellan beads containing diclofenac sodium showed pH-dependent swelling and drug release properties. Swelling and drug release were significantly higher in pH 7.4 phosphate buffer than 0.1N HCl. The swelling ratio for beads was up to 22 and 3 for phosphate buffer and 0.1N HCl, respectively. Cumulative diclofenac sodium release from calcium-gellan beads was 12-35% in 0.1N HCl within 2 h, whereas complete drug release was observed within 3-4 h in pH 7.4 phosphate buffer.
New switch fabric architecture for bursty traffic (2003)

A new switch fabric architecture, the Data Vortex, is designed with bufferless operation and minimum routing logic aiming for large-scale, low-latency optical implementations a fabric can be arranged as a collection of routing nodes on multiple fiber cylinders. Each routing node is labeled uniquely by coordinates. As each packet is self routed in the fashion of binary-tree decoding when it propagates from the outer cylinder towards the inner cylinder, each cylinder progress fixes a specific bit within the binary header address. Within each clock cycle, every packet propagates one angle forward along either the solid or the dashed line. To avoid packet contention, the switch architecture employs a synchronous and distributed control mechanism to properly schedule the neighboring packet flow.
Accurate, low-energy trajectory mapping for mobile devices (2011)

CTrack is an energy-efficient system for trajectory mapping using raw position tracks obtained largely from cellular base station fingerprints. Trajectory mapping, which involves taking a sequence of raw position samples and producing the most likely path followed by the user, is an important component in many location-based services including crowd-sourced traffic monitoring, navigation and routing, and personalized trip management. Using only cellular (GSM) fingerprints instead of power-hungry GPS and WiFi radios, the marginal energy consumed for trajectory mapping is zero. This approach is non-trivial because we need to process streams of highly inaccurate GSM localization samples (average error of over 175 meters) and produce an accurate trajectory. CTrack meets this challenge using a novel two-pass Hidden Markov Model that sequences cellular GSM fingerprints directly without converting them to geographic coordinates, and fuses data from low-energy sensors available on most commodity smart-phones, including accelerometers (to detect movement) and magnetic compasses (to detect turns). We have implemented CTrack on the Android platform, and evaluated it on 126 hours (1,074 miles) of real driving traces in an urban environment. We find that CTrack can retrieve over 75% of a user's drive accurately in the median. An important by-product of CTrack is that even devices with no GPS or WiFi (constituting a significant fraction of today's phones) can contribute and benefit from accurate position data.

Different rates and amounts of vision function recovery during orthoptic therapy in an older strabismic amblyope (1986)

Abstracts— Orthoptic therapy was instituted in an 11-year-old patient having deep amblyopia, constant small-angle esotropia with anomalous retinal correspondence, and a past history of minimal success with such therapy. This combination of factors pointed toward a poor prognosis for substantial recovery of vision function. Rate of recovery of several monocular and binocular vision functions was monitored during the course of 18 months of intensive orthoptic therapy. Results showed marked improvement in several monocular vision functions, suggesting presence of considerable residual neural plasticity of multiple sites in the visual pathways of this older amblyope.
Post‐traumatic fibromyalgia: A case report narrated by the patient (1994)

This report describes a case of fibromyalgia developing following a workplace injury, but in which the issues of compensation and work disability were not relevant. A previously healthy 37-year-old woman developed back and groin pain after lifting a heavy box. Over the next months, pain and allodynia gradually spread over her body, and headaches, sleep disturbance, paresthesias, and bowel symptoms developed for the first time. The pain was constant and severe, invading and interfering with every area of daily function. Surprisingly, no previous case reports or definition of post-traumatic fibromyalgia could be found. This case report, narrated by the patient, suggests that there is such an entity as post-traumatic fibromyalgia, and that central nervous system plasticity plays a central role.
Optimized Tersoff and Brenner empirical potential parameters for lattice dynamics and phonon thermal transport in carbon nanotubes and graphene (2010)

We have examined the commonly used Tersoff and Brenner empirical interatomic potentials in the context of the phonon dispersions in graphene. We have found a parameter set for each empirical potential that provides improved fits to some structural data and to the in-plane phonon-dispersion data for graphite. These optimized parameter sets yield values of the acoustic-phonon velocities that are in better agreement with measured data. They also provide lattice thermal conductivity values in single-walled carbon nanotubes and graphene that are considerably improved compared to those obtained from the original parameter sets.
Magnetic bubble collapse in the presence of a microwave field (1988)

A bubble collapse experiment has been done on a garnet sample with the composition Y1.92Sm0.1Ca0.98Fe4.02Ge0.98O12 both with and without an applied local microwave field. To explain the experimental results, the analysis of bubble domain wall motion by Callen and Josephs has been modified by introducing a nonlinear velocity-drive characteristic. In the case of no microwave excitation, a good fit between the theory and the experimental data is then obtained. A bubble collapse model in the presence of a microwave field which includes contributions from microwave-produced ‘‘dipolar pressure’’ and ‘‘intrinsic pressure’’ has been made. While some discrepancies exist between theory and experiment, nevertheless these results may be helpful in understanding the observations of microwave bubble generation reported by a number of research groups.
Silylative Dieckmann-Like Cyclizations of Ester-Imides (and Diesters) (2006)

[Structure: see text] Trialkylsilyl triflates effect cyclization of ester-imides such as 2 to produce adducts such as 4a. Trapping of the in situ generated, nucleophilic ketene acetal (cf. 5a) is a key aspect of the transformation. A range of substrates amenable to this operationally simple reaction is reported. In many instances the levels of diastereoselectivity are very high. Mechanistic points are inferred from spectroscopic observations.
Recent Advances in Biomechanics of Brain Injury Research: A Review (1995)

Biomechanics of cerebral trauma attempts to delineate the dynamic response of the cranial vault contents to a direct or indirect impact to the head. Consequently, brain injury mechanisms and associated tolerance to impact can be deduced by establishing a relationship between neurological deficit and mechanical dosage. The resulting information is invaluable to brain injury prevention and diagnosis. This paper presents an overview of our recent research on head injury focusing on establishing brain injury biomechanics by developing a comprehensive and validated mathematical model. To achieve our goal, we developed a comprehensive three-dimensional finite element human head model, finite element porcine head models, and sensors to monitor head kinematics and brain strains by neutral density accelerometers. The information obtained from this research thus far provided a predictive and somewhat validated mathematical model of the head, which clearly shows a correspondence between brain mechanical response and experimentally observed injuries.
