Why it's quick to be square (2010)

We consider different hierarchical menu and toolbar-like interface designs from a theoretical perspective and show how a model based on visual search time, pointing time, decision time and expertise development can assist in understanding and predicting interaction performance. Three hierarchical menus designs are modelled -- a traditional pull-down menu, a pie menu and a novel Square Menu with its items arranged in a grid -- and the predictions are validated in an empirical study. The model correctly predicts the relative performance of the designs -- both the eventual dominance of Square Menus compared to traditional and pie designs and a performance crossover as users gain experience. Our work shows the value of modelling in HCI design, provides new insights about performance with different hierarchical menu designs, and demonstrates a new high-performance menu type.
In vitro measurement and characterization of current density profiles produced by nonrecessed, simple recessed, and radially varying recessed stimulating electrodes (1991)

Potential fields induced by nonrecessed, simple recessed, and radially varying recessed electrode designs were measured in vitro. Comparison of experimental results with theoretical analyses substantiated the experimental measurement technique and emphasized the importance of considering both nonuniform charge injection and surface electrochemistry when designing implantable stimulating electrodes. Radially varying recesses produced uniform charge injection at the electrode surface and at the aperture-tissue interface. In general, the radially varying recessed electrodes provided a combination of uniform charge injection and flexibility in design and fabrication that warrants their incorporation into all appropriate planar stimulating electrode designs.

Lumbar Muscles: Structure and Function (1989)

We review new data derived from careful dissection studies on the macroscopic anatomy, innervation and function of the lumbar muscles, as well as information on the fibres in these muscles. The new findings correct previous misconceptions of the functional anatomy of the lumbar muscles. The innervation and function of the erector spinae and multifidus muscles are so different that they cannot be classified as a single unit. The new interpretation of the innervation of multifidus muscle is of importance, for example, for the neurophysiological examination of the lumbar muscles. The relative number of the slow and fast type of muscle fibres in lumbar muscles varies considerably, and selective atrophy of the fast fibres seems to ensue from inactivity, not only in patients with back pain but also in sedentary controls. The atrophy may be corrected by adequate exercise. Both the fibre type composition and degree of atrophy may well influence a person's susceptibility to low back pain arising from the muscles.
Gene transfer of calcitonin gene-related peptide to cerebral arteries (2000)

Overexpression of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), an extremely potent vasodilator, to blood vessels is a possible strategy for prevention of vasospasm. We constructed an adenoviral vector that encodes prepro-CGRP (Adprepro-CGRP) and examined the effects of gene transfer on cultured cells and cerebral arteries. Transfection of Adprepro-CGRP to Cos-7 and NIH-3T3 cells increased CGRP-like immunoreactivity in media and produced an increase in cAMP in recipient cells. Five days after injection of Adprepro-CGRP into the cisterna magna of rabbits, the concentration of CGRP-like immunoreactivity increased by 93-fold in cerebrospinal fluid. In basilar artery, cAMP increased by 2.3-fold after Adprepro-CGRP compared with a control adenovirus. After transfection of Adprepro-CGRP, contraction of basilar artery in vitro to histamine and serotonin was attenuated, and relaxation to an inhibitor of cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine was augmented compared with nontransduced arteries or arteries transfected with a control gene. Altered vascular responses were restored to normal by pretreatment with a CGRP(1) receptor antagonist CGRP-(8-37). Thus gene transfer of prepro-CGRP in vivo overexpresses CGRP in cerebrospinal fluid and perivascular tissues and modulates vascular tone. We speculate that this approach may be useful in prevention of vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage.
FABRICATION AND WETTABILITY OF ZNO NANOROD ARRAY (2009)

ZnO nanorod arrays were prepared in an open system by using a simple aqueous solution method. Spindlelike, wimble-like, tower-like and hexagonal rod-like ZnO rods were obtained under different conditions. ZnO nanorod arrays with different morphology and size were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and contact angle measurement (CAM). The size of ordered zinc oxide rods can be controlled by temperature of water bath, because this temperature can influences growing speeds in different crystal directions. Some additives, such as urea and thiourea, were introduced into reaction solution to improve quality of arrays. Surface character of ZnO nanorod arrays can be changed from hydrophilic to hydrophobic, which was proved to be dependence on size of air grooves on surface.
Simulation-Extrapolation: The Measurement Error Jackknife (1995)

Abstract This article provides theoretical support for our simulation-based estimation procedure, SIMEX, for measurement error models. We do so by establishing a strong relationship between SIMEX estimation and jackknife estimation. A result of our investigation is the identification of a variance estimation method for SIMEX that parallels jackknife variance estimation. Data from the Framingham Heart Study are used to illustrate the variance estimation procedure in logistic regression measurement error models.
Drilling Rigs: Offshore and Land-Based Fire Protection (2014)

Fires aboard oil and gas drilling rigs may have serious consequences including loss of life. Fire hazards are slightly different between locations, and fire protection varies substantially between offshore and land-based drilling rigs. This entry compares the differences in fire protection typically found between these two types of drilling rigs, along with guidelines and regulations pertaining to fire protection issues.
Efficacy of Listerine antiseptic in inhibiting the development of plaque and gingivitis (1985)

A 9-month double-blind controlled clinical study was conducted on adult subjects using either Listerine antiseptic, its vehicle control, or a water control in order to determine the efficacy of the antiseptic mouthrinse in inhibiting the development of plaque and gingivitis. Following screening examinations for minimal entry levels of plaque and gingivitis, all subjects received a complete prophylaxis. Subjects then continued their usual oral hygiene habits for a 3-week normalization period and were examined for soft tissue abnormalities and baseline measurements of plaque, gingivitis, and tooth stain. 2 additional prophylaxes were then performed, followed by a second baseline gingival examination. Zero plaque was re-established by rubber cup polishing and twice daily rinsing was begun. Soft tissue, plaque, gingivitis, and extrinsic tooth stain were evaluated after 1, 3, 6 and 9 months of rinsing with the randomly assigned mouthrinses. Results demonstrated that Listerine antiseptic significantly reduced the development of plaque at 1, 3, 6 and 9 months and the development of gingivitis at 9 months, as compared to its vehicle control or water control.

Ariadne: Architecture of a Portable Threads System Supporting Thread Migration (1996)

Threads exhibit a simply expressed and powerful form of concurrency, easily exploitable in applications that run on both uni- and multi-processors, shared- and distributed-memory systems. This paper presents the design and implementation of Ariadne: a layered, C-based software architecture for multi-threaded distributed computing on a variety of platforms. Ariadne is a portable user-space threads system that runs on shared- and distributed-memory multiprocessors. Thread-migration is supported at the application level in homogeneous environments (e.g., networks of SPARCs and Sequent Symmetrys, Intel hypercubes). Threads may migrate between processes to access remote data, preserving locality of reference for computations with a dynamic data space. Ariadne can be tuned to specific applications through a customization layer. Support is provided for scheduling via a built-in or application-specific scheduler, and interfacing with any communications library. Ariadne currently runs on the SPARC (SunOS 4.x and SunOS 5.x), Sequent Symmetry, Intel i860, Silicon Graphics workstation (IRIX), and IBM RS/6000 environments. We present simple performance benchmarks comparing Ariadne to threads libraries in the SunOS 4.x and SunOS 5.x systems.
Structural analysis of recombinant protein prepared by semi‐dry electroblotting after sodium dodecyl sulfate‐polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (1991)

Proteins that were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis were electroblotted onto polyvinylidene difluoride membranes in procedures to prepare homogeneous recombinant proteins for direct N-terminal sequence analysis. A semi-dry blotting procedure was employed to immobilize protein bands on the membranes for subsequent sequence analysis. This method has been used routinely to evaluate the quality of recombinant proteins, which are present in crude cell extracts produced by different expression systems or under different expression conditions. N-Terminal processing, amino acid misincorporation, as well as the inefficient secretion of recombinant proteins can be detected by direct N-terminal sequence analysis of the purified electroblotted samples. Consequently, time-consuming chromatographic procedures can be eliminated. These procedures are also especially valuable for determining degradation sites of a purified recombinant protein, as well as evaluating multiple gene products expressed by isolated cluster genes.
Sita, Surpanakha and Kaikeyi as political bodies: representations of female sexuality in idealised culture (2013)

For 40 years, Amar Chitra Katha (ACK) comics have been synonymous with the Indian comic book industry, and as such have garnered critical attention, including three books and numerous articles. In contrast, other English comics, especially those published since ACK stopped releasing new books in 1990, are the subjects of significantly less discussion. New publishers are now continuing and expanding the ACK tradition in significant ways. One major contribution to the industry is new comics based on the Ramayana, which has spawned six series/graphic novels in the last 5 years. In this essay, I will focus on Liquid (previously Virgin) Comic’s series, Ramayan 3392 AD, as one of the heirs to the ACK tradition, specifically one which maintains a perspective sympathetic to Rama. I will discuss how 3392 AD perpetuates ACK’s use of the feminine Vedic ideal while expanding into diasporic and non-Indian audiences. This expansion allows the series to capitalise on the fear of cultural loss to proscribe gendered normative behaviour. 3392 AD creates a new female archetype, the prodigal woman, and uses this category along with existing archetypes to embody a strict feminine social code and to proscribe bodily consequences for women who reject or transgress this code.

Relationship between hepatic phenotype and changes in gene expression in cytochrome P450 reductase (POR) null mice (2005)

Cytochrome P450 reductase is the unique electron donor for microsomal cytochrome P450s; these enzymes play a major role in the metabolism of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds. In mice with a liver-specific deletion of cytochrome P450 reductase, hepatic cytochrome P450 activity is ablated, with consequent changes in bile acid and lipid homoeostasis. In order to gain insights into the metabolic changes resulting from this phenotype, we have analysed changes in hepatic mRNA expression using microarray analysis and real-time PCR. In parallel with the perturbations in bile acid levels, changes in the expression of key enzymes involved in cholesterol and lipid homoeostasis were observed in hepatic cytochrome P450 reductase null mice. This was characterized by a reduced expression of Cyp7b1, and elevation of Cyp7a1 and Cyp8b1 expression. The levels of mRNAs for other cytochrome P450 genes, including Cyp2b10, Cyp2c29, Cyp3a11 and Cyp3a16, were increased, demonstrating that endogenous factors play a role in regulating the expression of these proteins and that the increases are due, at least in part, to altered levels of transcripts. In addition, levels of mRNAs encoding genes involved in glycolysis and lipid transport were also increased; the latter may provide an explanation for the increased hepatic lipid content observed in the hepatic null mice. Serum testosterone and oestradiol levels were lowered, accompanied by significantly decreased expression of Hsd3b2 (3beta-hydroxy-Delta5-steroid dehydrogenase-2), Hsd3b5 (3beta-hydroxy-Delta5-steroid dehydrogenase-5) and Hsd11b1 (11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1), key enzymes in steroid hormone metabolism. These microarray data provide important insights into the control of metabolic pathways by the cytochrome system.
TEM horn circular array for wide band pattern notch reconfigurable antenna system (2010)

This paper presents a wideband circular antenna array with a reconfigurable radiation pattern. The array consists of eight TEM horn antennas. The antenna array exhibits an omni-directional azimuthal radiation pattern when all eight ports are excited with signals of the same magnitude and phase. The antenna array is fed through eight reconfigurable bandstop filters and a power splitter. This enables it to provide an omnidirectional azimuthal pattern along with a single directional pattern null in a given spatial direction and at a certain frequency. Both the special direction and the frequency can be altered. The antenna works from 0.8GHz to 3.0GHz. The array will be useful in combating interference in wideband communication systems or spectrum search in cognitive radio systems.
A Metallic Hemiarthroplasty Resurfacing Prosthesis for the Hallux Metatarsophalangeal Joint (1994)

Two-hundred seventy-nine arthritic hallux metatarsophalangeal joints treated surgically with a metallic resurfacing hemiarthroplasty over a 40-year period were reviewed. The implant, which is made available in three evenly graded sizes, is designed to replace only the articular surface of the proximal phalanx, with minimal resection of bone stock. The pathologic indications for surgery included classical hallux rigidus, rheumatoid arthritis, and degenerative changes associated with hallux valgus and bunion deformity. Follow-up at 8 months to 33 years after surgery revealed good or excellent clinical results in 95%. The time to follow-up was in excess of 5 years in 101 (36%) of the procedures, beyond 10 years in 62 (22%), and longer than 20 years in 23 (8%). Unlike other available surgical options for this debilitating condition, biomechanics of the hallux metatarsophalangeal joint remained unaffected and problems associated with prosthetic wear or mechanical failure were not encountered.
Exploring Implicit Feedback for Open Domain Conversation Generation (2018)

User feedback can be an effective indicator to the success of the human-robot conversation. However, to avoid to interrupt the online real-time conversation process, explicit feedback is usually gained at the end of a conversation. Alternatively, users' responses usually contain their implicit feedback, such as stance, sentiment, emotion, etc., towards the conversation content or the interlocutors. Therefore, exploring the implicit feedback is a natural way to optimize the conversation generation process. In this paper, we propose a novel reward function which explores the implicit feedback to optimize the future reward of a reinforcement learning based neural conversation model. A simulation strategy is applied to explore the state-action space in training and test. Experimental results show that the proposed approach outperforms the Seq2Seq model and the state-of-the-art reinforcement learning model for conversation generation on automatic and human evaluations on the OpenSubtitles and Twitter datasets.

Clinical and Chemical Studies with <i>α</i> -Methyl-Dopa in Patients with Hypertension (1962)

A series of observations in 52 hypertensive patients is presented indicating that α-methyl-dopa is an effective antihypertensive agent. The antihypertensive properties of the agent were discovered in the course of biochemical studies with the racemic compound the form used in initial therapeutic trials. Studies on metabolism of dl -α-methyl-dopa indicate incomplete intestinal absorption and rapid excretion in the urine as unchanged drug and as α-methyl-dopamine. The former finding does not seem to be a significant deterrent to its use orally. Comparisons of the d and l isomers of α-methyl-dopa in hypertensive patients showed that all the chemical and pharmacologic effects reside in the l -isomer (Aldomet). Thus, recent studies have been performed with Aldomet exclusively. From observations to date the impression has been gained that Aldomet has several advantages over other antihypertensive agents; these include effectiveness against all degrees of hypertension, frequent lowering of recumbent as well as standing blood pressure, smoothness of effect, and tranquilizing effects. Questions of toxicity and tolerance are not yet completely answered. Sympathetic blockade at a central or peripheral site is the probable basis of the drug's action. This effect may be unrelated to the biochemical property of inhibiting the decarboxylation of aromatic l -amino acids and is possibly due to depletion of tissue stores of norepinephrine by a mechanism not yet fully defined.
Semipolar Organoboron Surfactants. V. (1977)

X-ray diffraction of glycerol mono (12-hydroxystearoyl) glycerol borate (GHSGB) was measured and its two crystal forms were found. GHSGB from the melt (α-form) had a single strong short spacing line at 4.16Å, and the one from solvent crystallization (β-form) had three strong short spacing lines at 4.00, 4.17 and 4.53Å. Long spacings of α- and β-form were observed at 73Å and 70Å, respectively. DSC and IR spectra data of GHSGB were discussed in addition to those X-ray analyses.
