The Effect of Chlortetracycline on the Incidence of Enterotoxemia and Weight Gains in Lambs Maintained under Commercial Feed-Lot Conditions (1956)

Studies were conducted with 798 lambs to determine the effect of chlortetracycline fed under feed-lot conditions. Lambs were divided randomly into 8 equal lots assigned to 4 feeding groups. The basal ration was fed to Group I. Group II received basal plus chlortetracycline at a level of 25 mg. per pound of feed for 21 days, followed by 10 mg. per pound of feed continuously. Group III received basal plus chlortetracycline at a level of 10 mg. per pound of feed continuously. Group IV received basal plus 25 mg. chlortetracycline per pound of feed for 21 days. The feeding period for all groups was 48 days. Significantly fewer carcasses of sheep in Group IV were graded “choicel” than in Groups I, II and III, the shift being generally to the “good” classification. Under the conditions of this trial, supplementation during the entire feeding period proved to be highly effective in the control of enterotoxemia since no deaths occurred in four pens fed in this manner. In contrast, death did occur in both control pens and in both pens which had received chlortetracycline for 21 days followed by no antibiotic. All deaths in this latter group occurred after the discontinuance of chlortetracycline supplementation. Average final weights and average daily gains for the group receiving 10 mg. of chlortetracycline per pound of feed continuously throughout the experiment were significantly higher than the controls or other treatment groups.
Algorithms That Learn to Extract Information BBN: Description of the Sift System as Used for MUC-7 (1998)

All of BBN&apos;s research under the TIPSTER III program has focused on doing extraction by applying statistical models trained on annotated data, rather than by using programs that execute hand-written rules. Within the context of MUC-7, the SIFT system for extraction of template entities (TE) and template relations (TR) used a novel, integrated syntactic/semantic language model to extract sentence level information, and then synthesized information across sentences using in part a trained model for cross-sentence relations. At the named entity (NE) level as well, in both MET-1 and MUC-7, BBN employed a trained, HMM-based model. The results in these TIPSTER evaluations are evidence that such trained systems, even at their current level of development, can perform roughly on a par with those based on rules hand-tailored by experts. In addition, such trained systems have some significant advantages: • They can be easily ported to new domains by simply annotating fresh data. • The complex interactions that make rule-based systems difficult to develop and maintain can here be learned automatically from the training data. We believe that improved and extended versions of such trained models have the potential for significant further progress toward practical systems for information extraction.
A flexible sealed tube transverse radio frequency excited carbon dioxide laser for dermatologic surgery (1983)

A new CO2 laser system, of special characteristics, has been found to be effective for CO2 laser dermatological surgery. The unit is compact, freely movable, and suitable for office practice. A highly flexible operating probe makes for precision surgery. The initial investigative clinical series included resistant warts in many areas including extensive plantar warts, oral lesions, and condylomata. There were also excisions of broad base granuloma pyogenicum, large seborrheic warty lesions, thermal photocoagulation of rhinophyma, and laser dermabrasion of tattoos. Flaps were done in animals.

Isolation of two novel ras genes in Dictyostelium discoideum; evidence for a complex, developmentally regulated ras gene subfamily. (1994)

In Dictyostelium discoideum, three ras genes (rasD, rasG and rasB) and one ras-related gene (rap1) have been previously isolated and characterized, and the deduced amino acid sequence of their predicted protein products share at least 50% sequence identity with the human H-Ras protein. We have now cloned and characterized two additional members of the ras gene subfamily in Dictyostelium, rasC and rasS. These genes are developmentally regulated and unlike the previously isolated Dictyostelium ras genes, maximum levels of their transcripts were detected during aggregation, suggesting that the encoded proteins have distinct functions during aggregation. The rasC cDNA encodes a 189 amino acid protein that is 65% identical to the Dictyostelium RasD and RasG proteins and 56% identical to the human H-Ras protein. The predicted 194 amino acid gene product encoded by rasS is 60% identical to the Dictyostelium RasD and RasG proteins and 54% identical to the human H-Ras protein. Whereas RasD, RasG, RasB and Rap1 are totally conserved in their putative effector domains relative to H-Ras, RasC and RasS have single amino acid substitutions in their effector domains, consistent with the idea that they have unique functions. In RasC, aspartic acid-38 has been replaced by asparagine (D38N), and in RasS, isoleucine-36 has been replaced by leucine (I36L). In addition, both proteins have several differences in the effector-proximal domain, a domain which is believed to play a role in Ras target activation. In RasC, there is a single conservative amino acid change in the canonical sequence of the binding site for the Ras-specific monoclonal antibody Y13-259, and consequently, RasC is less immunoreactive with the antibody than either of the Dictyostelium RasD or RasG proteins. In contrast, RasS, which has three substitutions in the Y13-259 binding site, does not react with the Y13-259 antibody.
A Prebuffer Algorithm For Instant Display Of Volume Data (1986)

Standard Image Processing and Computer Graphics hardware and software seem inadequate to analyze and display the 3-d information of discrete volume data efficiently. Instant display is indispensable as a diagnostic tool and for the interactive development of automated analysis methods. A fast direct display algorithm has been defined and successfully implemented on available 2-d Image Processing equipment; a dedicated hardware realization should provide real-time display capabilities.

Optical properties of aggregated metal systems: Interband transitions (1977)

In previous publications we reported on the optical properties of aggregated metal systems, where the metal particles were assumed to be free-electron type with damping, and where they were assumed to be dispersed in a dielectric medium with a varying index of refraction. The main results were the shift of bulk and surface plasma frequencies with aggregation density and the appearance of an extra resonance, called the optical conduction resonance (OCR), on the low-energy side of the plasma frequency. The OCR was shown to be a transverse collective mode of the free electrons in the aggregates which could be excited by incident light. In the present work the effects of electronic interband transitions on the free-electron OCR and the free-electron plasma frequencies are examined. Important new results are obtained including frequency shifts and splitting of the OCR absorption peak and the loss function by interband transitions. These results are used in the analysis of the dielectric functions of some real metals in aggregated form.
[Immune and microcirculatory disorders in patients with a protracted course of viral hepatitis B and their correction]. (1995)

Immunity status and that of microhemodynamics were evaluated in 85 patients with a protracted course of viral hepatitis B (VHB). Clearcut correlation was found between the values for immunity and microcirculation. Use of parmidine and quercetin in a combined treatment of patients makes for rapid clearing of the disturbances revealed, promoting reconvalescence, reducing the frequency of VHB recurrences and chronization of pathological processes in the liver.
Bluetooth Low Energy‐Based Washable Wearable Activity Motion and Electrocardiogram Textronic Monitoring and Communicating System (2018)

Abstract The miniaturized, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) encapsulated, reliable, and fully washable system composed of three textile stretchable electrodes and connected electronic module is designed, realized, and integrated to a sportswear. The electronic module is specifically developed and made on a flexible print circuit board in order to facilitate its integration. The software developed enables the recording of the electrocardiogram (ECG) high quality signs together with the skin temperature, the breathing rate, and acceleration outputs that are used for an activity monitoring. The electronic module transmits all the data to a smart phone via low energy Bluetooth. The specific dedicated application displays the ECG signal, the respiration rate, and the activity performed in a real time. This information is sent to a cloud. The system is tested in real conditions of utilization and washed following standards to test its reliability and verify its readiness for the market. The system is a next step in the instrumentation of clothing, comparing to existing heart rate monitoring modules, having a capacity to monitor the activities in real time and being fully washable without mechanical disconnecting of the electronic module as it is a case for almost all existing monitoring devices.

Decoupled Hepta-Band Antenna Array for WWAN/LTE Smartphone Applications (2014)

A wideband antenna array incorporating a neutralization line (NL) for port decoupling for smartphone applications is proposed. The U-shape NL is employed to achieve enhanced isolations for the lower band, which are better than 10 dB for 824-960 MHz. The mechanism of the NL is explained based on the S-parameters and the surface current distributions. In addition, the incorporated NL has acceptable effects on the bandwidth, while a bandstop filter and on-ground slots are utilized to realize the hepta-band coverage, covering the GSM850/900/1800/1900/UMTS/LTE2300/2500 operation. A prototype is fabricated and tested, with S-parameters, radiation efficiencies, radiation patterns, envelope correlation coefficient (ECC), and mean effective gain (MEG) presented.
Humoral hyporesponsiveness to a conjugate contraceptive vaccine and its bypass by diverse carriers using permissible adjuvant (2000)

A contraceptive vaccine directed against human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) has previously undergone clinical testing that demonstrated the feasibility of the approach in preventing pregnancy in women. Some immunized volunteers however, did not respond with an adequate anti-hCG antibody response despite employing highly immunogenic bacterial toxoids as carriers. Since there is some evidence that T cell responses to a complex protein typically focus on a few immunodominant epitopes, we investigated the responsiveness to hCG in mice of different haplotypes using the protein carrier diphtheria toxoid (DT). Our data showed a differential carrier effect of DT. With the aim of making a more potent immunogen employing promiscuous pathogen-derived Th peptides as carriers, peptide:antigen stoichiometric ratios were optimized. When tested individually using alum as the adjuvant, three such peptide conjugates improved the anti-hCG response, though not consistently to levels higher than the DT conjugate. Immunization with a combination of these synthetic epitopes generated anti-hCG responses higher than those achieved with DT or with the individual peptides. Antibodies were of high affinity and capable of neutralizing the bioactivity of hCG, but were devoid of anti-peptide reactivity. These results support our view that differential hyporesponsiveness in a diverse population may arise from inadequate carrier effect and that it can be overcome by use of pathogen-derived broadly reactive non-B Th epitopes employing only alum, a permissible adjuvant.
Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription-5 Activation and Breast Cancer Prognosis (2004)

Iterative Hard Thresholding for Compressed Sensing (2008)

Compressed sensing is a technique to sample compressible signals below the Nyquist rate, whilst still allowing near optimal reconstruction of the signal. In this paper we present a theoretical analysis of the iterative hard thresholding algorithm when applied to the compressed sensing recovery problem. We show that the algorithm has the following properties (made more precise in the main text of the paper) - It gives near-optimal error guarantees. - It is robust to observation noise. - It succeeds with a minimum number of observations. - It can be used with any sampling operator for which the operator and its adjoint can be computed. - The memory requirement is linear in the problem size. - Its computational complexity per iteration is of the same order as the application of the measurement operator or its adjoint. - It requires a fixed number of iterations depending only on the logarithm of a form of signal to noise ratio of the signal. - Its performance guarantees are uniform in that they only depend on properties of the sampling operator and signal sparsity.

Gold(I)‐Catalyzed Intermolecular Hydroarylation of Alkenes with Indoles under Thermal and Microwave‐Assisted Conditions (2008)

An efficient method for intermolecular hydroarylation of aryl and aliphatic alkenes with indoles using a combination of [(PR(3))AuCl]/AgOTf as catalyst under thermal and microwave-assisted conditions has been developed. The gold(I)-catalyzed reactions of indoles with aryl alkenes were achieved in toluene at 85 degrees C over a reaction time of 1-3 h with 2 mol% of [(PR(3))AuCl]/AgOTf as catalyst. This method works for a variety of styrenes bearing electron-deficient, electron-rich, and sterically bulky substituents to give the corresponding products in good to high yields (60-95%). Under microwave irradiation, coupling of unactivated aliphatic alkenes with indoles gave the corresponding adducts in up to 90% yield. Selective hydroarylation of terminal C=C bond of conjugated dienes with indoles gave good product yields (62-81%). On the basis of deuterium-labeling experiments, a reaction mechanism involving nucleophilic attack of Au(I)-coordinated alkenes by indoles is proposed.
Minitact gyroscope-the low cost alternative (2002)

The design is described and performance data presented illustrating the capability of this low cost next generation rate gyroscope. The Minitact is the result of integrated product development (IPD) and design to unit production cost (DTUPC) design processes and is expected to become the tactical performance benchmark.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
Monitoring of gas diffusion in air using the TWI technique: Thermal diffusivity measurements made easy (2003)

The thermal wave interference technique (TWI) has been explored in recent years for the investigation of the thermal and transport properties of gases and liquids. In this article we address ourselves to the quantitative understanding of the transient thermal wave interference signal of air:hydrocarbon vapor mixtures. This is the situation one faces when placing a given portion of liquid hydrocarbon inside an initially air-filled thermal wave interference. What is observed in this case is the thermal wave interference signal decay as a function of the time as a result of the change of the gas thermal diffusivity with time due to the increase of the hydrocarbon vapor concentration in air. In this article we show that value of the thermal diffusivity of the saturated mixture is readily obtained from the saturation value of the normalized signal amplitude, without the need of performing the conventional L scan.
Perioperative Dextromethorphan Reduces Postoperative Pain After Hysterectomy (1999)

Patients given dextromethorphan before and after surgery had a significant reduction in some pain scores at rest, but not on movement. There was a trend to lower morphine requirements in the first 24 h. Over the next 48 h, oral analgesic usage was significantly reduced.
Factor-Covering Designs for Testing Software (1998)

Testing is a critical component of modern software development. The problem of designing a suite of test cases is superficially similar to that of designing an experiment to estimate main effects and interactions, but there are crucial differences. Additive models are unhelpful, and classical design criteria are also. We propose a new class of models and new measures of effectiveness. We compare several designs.

Proposal and Analysis of a Semiconductor Klystron Device Using Two-Dimensional Electron Gas for Terahertz Amplification and Oscillation (2004)

An amplifier device with two-dimensional electron gas, which has the possibility of operation in the THz range, is proposed and analyzed. In the operation principle, electrons traversing the input port emit and absorb THz photons, resulting in the splitting of the electron energy levels, and then, the beat of these splitting electron waves produces charge density modulation which emits an amplified output power at the output port. This operation principle is equivalent to that of the klystron tube in the low-frequency classical limit. Transconductance and power gain are analyzed quantum mechanically, taking into account the influence of electron scattering and electron energy distribution. Calculated results show that the transconductance has a peak in the sub-THz and THz ranges. An oscillator using this device integrated with a coplanar line and a slot antenna is proposed, and the possibility of THz oscillation is shown by analyzing the oscillation conditions.
Picosecond laser processing of semiconductor and thin film devices (2010)

Next generation semiconductor, photovoltaic and display devices require precise, highly reliable, and cost-effective laser processing system solutions capable of high average power output at pulse repetition frequencies substantially exceeding 100 KHz. Emerging 45 nm and 32 nm node logic devices contain increasingly complex stacks of difficult to process materials, such as copper and low K dielectrics, demanding precise laser micromachining with minimum heat affected zones and melt effects. Laser memory repair of 5x nm node DRAM memory devices requires fine control of the fuse stack removal to avoid damage to adjacent circuitry. Significant improvements to patterning processes essential to the production of thin film photovoltaic devices are necessary to drive increased device efficiency and reductions in module prices. Similar challenges are faced in devising laser process solutions for crystalline silicon photovoltaic and advanced display devices. Robust picosecond laser architectures, including diode-pumped solid state master oscillator power amplifier or regenerative amplifier, fiber master oscillator power amplifier and fiber-bulk hybrids are broadly employed in investigations to identify solutions for these important industrial thin film laser processing applications. The prospects for broader adoption of industrial picosecond laser processing systems will be addressed along with related implications for advanced picosecond laser and laser system design requirements.
