CARE3MENU- A CARE III USER FRIENDLY INTERFACE

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

CARE3MENU generates an input file for the CARE III program. CARE III is used for reliability prediction of complex, redundant, fault-tolerant systems including digital computers, aircraft, nuclear and chemical control systems. The CARE III input file often becomes complicated and is not easily formatted with a text editor. CARE3MENU provides an easy, interactive method of creating an input file by automatically formatting a set of user-supplied inputs for the CARE III system. CARE3MENU provides detailed on-line help for most of its screen formats. The reliability model input process is divided into sections using menu-driven screen displays. Each stage, or set of identical modules comprising the model, must be identified and described in terms of number of modules, minimum number of modules for stage operation, and critical fault threshold. The fault handling and fault occurence models are detailed in several screens by parameters such as transition rates, propagation and detection densities, Weibull or exponential characteristics, and model accuracy. The system fault tree and critical pairs fault tree screens are used to define the governing logic and to identify modules affected by component failures. Additional CARE3MENU screens prompt the user for output options and run time control values such as mission time and truncation values. There are fourteen major screens, many with default values and HELP options. The documentation includes: 1) a users guide with several examples of CARE III models, the dialog required to input them to CARE3MENU, and the output files created; and 2) a maintenance manual for assistance in changing the HELP files and modifying any of the menu formats or contents. CARE3MENU is written in FORTRAN 77 for interactive execution and has been implemented on a DEC VAX series computer operating under VMS. This program was developed in 1985.

Nonenzymatic and Enzymatic Functions of the Skp1 αGalactosyltransferase in Dictyostelium Oxygen‐Sensing

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

In the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum the SCF E3 adaptor protein Skp1 is modified by a prolyl hydroxylase and three glycosyltransferases. Aberrant expression of these enzyme proteins has been shown to affect development of Dictyostelium in response to environmental O 2 levels. The final enzyme in the pathway, AgtA (α3‐galactosyltransferase), modifies the core trisaccharide with 2 αGal residues. AgtA is unique being the only enzyme possessing a non‐catalytic domain. The C‐terminal domain contains 7 WD40‐repeats predicted to fold into a β‐propeller. in vitro activity studies comparing Skp1 glycoforms and free sugars implicate this domain in binding to Skp1 and allosteric modulation of the AgtA active site. Furthermore, biochemical and cell biological studies with single and double enzyme knockouts and overexpression strains suggest the WD40 domain may mediate a more complex role played by AgtA in the Skp1‐modification pathway via interference with other Skp1‐interacting proteins. From these data is emerging a model in which non‐enzymatic functions of AgtA serve to regulate the modification status and activity of Skp1 in a fashion unique among glycosyltransferases, with corresponding impact on O 2 ‐sensing in Dictyostelium and possibly other protists that share pathway genes.

The Igliniit project: Inuit hunters document life on the trail to map and monitor arctic change

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

The Igliniit Project brought together Inuit hunters and geomatics engineering students during the International Polar Year (IPY) to collaborate on the development and testing of a new integrated GPS/PDA/mobile weather station technology for observing and monitoring the environment. Part of the larger Inuit Sea Ice Use and Occupancy Project (ISIUOP), the Igliniit Project culminated in a tangible product that is the direct result of combined scientific and Inuit knowledge, ingenuity, and engineering. This paper describes the Igliniit Project and examines the resulting technology as (i) an artifact of Inuit knowledge, science and engineering collaboration; (ii) a tool for meaningful engagement of Inuit in environmental science and community‐based monitoring; (iii) a new approach and tool in the field of indigenous mapping; and (iv) an example of one technology in the expanding ecology of technologies in everyday Inuit life. The technology requires improvements in hardware and further development of supporting systems such as data management and mapping capability, but there is potential for the Igliniit Project approach and system to have wide appeal across the North for a variety of applications including environmental monitoring, wildlife studies, land use mapping, hazards research, place names research, archaeological and cultural inventories, and search and rescue operations .
The Association of HLA-B5 Antigen with Specific Manifestations of Behçet’s Disease

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The HLA-B5 phenotype was investigated in 235 patients with Behçet's disease and in 100 healthy persons. HLA-B5 was more frequent in the patients (77 vs. 30% p < 0.001, relative risk = 7.8). The frequency of HLA-B5 was higher in patients with genital ulceration than without (82.3 vs. 63%, p < 0.01). Patients with thrombophlebitis showed a less frequent positivity of HLA-B5 antigen than the patients without thrombophlebitis (50 vs. 79.2%, p < 0.02). These results suggest that HLA-B5-related genes not only affect the development of Behçet's disease but also the occurrence of its clinical manifestations.

The Application of the Big Data Medical Imaging System in Improving the Medical and Health Examination

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

To explore the application effect of the big data medical imaging tertiary diagnostic system in improving the medical and health examination, cases in township health centers were collected by the medical imaging tertiary diagnosis system. Clinical cases examined by the tertiary diagnostic system of big data medical imaging will be set as the observation group. Clinical cases not involved in the tertiary diagnostic system of big data medical imaging were set as the control group. The qualified rate, film positive rate, and film diagnosis accuracy between the two groups are compared, and X-ray perspective, X-ray examination, and CT multiple medical imaging examinations are used in two groups. The experimental results showed that the pass rate was 86.57%, positive rate was 72.32%, and diagnosis rate was 80.17%. Pass rate, positive rate, and diagnostic accuracy were higher than the control group ( P < 0.05 ). X-line film is the most cost effective. CT examination has a high diagnostic sensitivity and can achieve a clear diagnosis of the benign and malignant diseases. The three-level diagnosis system of medical imaging has significantly improved and improved the technical level in the medical and health examination, which has good practical value.
Nutritional Value of the Larvae of the Alien Invasive Wasp Vespa velutina nigrithorax and Amino Acid Composition of the Larval Saliva

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The systematic investigations on the value of social wasps as a food resource are deficient, in spite of the long history of the utilization of social wasps as food and pharmaceutical bioresources. Vespa velutina nigrithorax is an invasive alien wasp species that is currently dominating in East Asia and Europe, bringing huge economic damages. As a control over alien species is made when the valuable utilization of the invasive species as a potential resource are discovered, investigations on the potential of V. v. nigrithorax as a useful bioresource are also in demand. Nutritional and heavy metal analyses of the larvae revealed their balanced and rich nutritional value and safety as a food resource. The larval saliva amino acid composition was investigated for further study on amino acid supplementation and exercise enhancement.
Texture Segmentation by Grouping Ellipse Ensembles via Active Contours

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

We address the problem of unsupervised segmentation of textural images by relying on morphological image representations and active contours. More precisely, starting with the assumption that textures are statistical ensembles of local image structures, known as textons, we first suggest to represent a texture image through a tree of ellipses, which are derived from the level lines of the image; we then investigate the statistical properties on the tree of ellipses and finally achieve a segmentation of the texture image by grouping all the ellipses into several subsets according to some statistical measurements. The grouping process is formulated as an energy minimizing problem and the solution is obtained by evolving an active contour based on Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence through a fast global minimization method. Thanks to the proposed ellipse-based features, the segmentation method can integrate local and global information in the image. The experiments on both synthesized and natural texture images validate the approach.
Robust Watermarking using Arnold and Hybrid Transform in Medical Images

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

The number of medical digital images continues to grow, thus requiring the protection of patient privacy. It is the reason watermarking on medical images has received special attention. This study proposes a watermarking scheme on the image using the Arnold cat map and hybrid transform (Fast Discrete Curvelet Transforms (FDCuT), Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT), Singular Value Decomposition (SVD)). The Arnold Cat Map technique is applied to pre-processing to increase security and reduce the likelihood of targeted attacks. Experiments were carried out on six modalities: MRI image, x-Ray, CT scan, ultrasound, eye image, and fundus scan. The experimental results show that the watermarked image produces excellent imperceptibility with a peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) above 50 dB, and the structural similarity index (SSIM) is close to 1. The value of bit error rate (BER) 0 and normalized correlation (NC) 1 are obtained in conditions without attack. This technique is resistant to various attacks, namely JPEG compression, adding noise, and filtering. Therefore, the proposed watermarking scheme has good imperceptibility and robustness to be applied in e-health applications.

Influence of lime type, additives and application tehniques on limerenders characteristics

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The diploma thesis deals with different facade systems with lime binder. The lime facade
consists of rough coating, fine coating and protective lime wash.
For the elaboration of mortar for rough coating limes of six different Slovenian producers
were chosen, mainly those produced in the traditional way. Mortar for rough coating was
evaluated regarding its consistency (in fresh) and compressive stress - strain relationship and
absorption of water (in hardened state).
Fine mortar, as the second coating of the facade system, was chosen based on practical
testing, with bigger or smaller deviations from different recipes of old masters. Fine mortar
surface was smooth or rough.
As the third layer different lime washes with different additives (casein or varnish) and
pigments were applied using different techniques (fresco or secco). I assessed the influence
of the base (fine mortar) surface structure, the technique of application and the additives on
the complexity of applying washes, on the appearance of dried lime washes, intensity of
colour nuances, the strength of binding of the washes as well as the absorption of water of the
facade system.

Characterization and Biological Activities of Essential Oils of Some Species of Lamiaceae

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Essential oils are complex mixtures of biologically active substances used since a long time as flavouring agents and constituents of number of commercial products. Currently, their importance is more highlighted due to their increasing demand for food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. Recent scientific literature revealed the antimicrobial, antifungal and antioxidant potential of essential oils. In view of the multiple applications of essential oils, their characterization based on their chemical profiles, is of great importance.In the present study, some indigenous species of Lamiaceae family were screened for the isolation of essential oils. The hydro-distilled essential oils were characterized for their physico-chemical and biological activities. . GC and GC-MS analysis of the chemical constituents of the isolated oils mainly revealed the presence of monoterpene hydrocarbons, sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, oxygenated monoterpenes, and oxygenated sesquiterpenes. The investigated essential oils exhibited good antioxidant, cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities as measured by different in-vitro assays and experimental models. The variations in the yield, chemical composition and biological activities of most of the essential oils investigated in the present study, with respect to species and harvesting season, were significant.

Gender-concerns: do they matter in smallholder dairy groups in Kenya?

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Smallholder dairy farming is a key economic activity for improving rural livelihoods. This paper reports a study on six smallholder dairy groups that evaluated the importance of gender-concerns in the dairy value-chain towards improved livelihoods. Longitudinal study design was applied for two years from April 2012. Purposive and multistage sampling techniques were used. Data collection was through focus group discussions and evaluations. Data analyses encompassed descriptive statistics, value-scale ranking and gender-analyses. Men dominated decision-making and resource-control, indicating gender-inequality. Women performed all the nine activities in the three counties, over 70% while men and youths shared about 30%. Percentage change in milk handled and incomes generated ranged from 15.3 to 100 and 13.3 to 102 respectively after intervention (especially training on gender issues) within the groups. Hence, gender-concerns indeed mattered.
Spanish Curriculum in Cariology for undergraduate dental students: Proceedings and consensus

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Abstract Introduction Cariology is today a broad‐based discipline and in the Spanish university teaching field, all this knowledge is not unified in a curriculum. Therefore, the aim was to develop a consensus text based on the European Core Curriculum, updated, and adapted to the characteristics of the Spanish university environment. Materials and Methods A Spanish Cariology Curriculum Group (SCCG) was set up with members of the Spanish Society of Epidemiology and Oral Public Health (SESPO), Spanish Society of Conservative and Aesthetic Dentistry (SEOC) and Spanish Society of Paediatric Dentistry (SEOP) and university experts to adapt the European Core Curriculum in Cariology for undergraduate dental students (ECCC) for Spain. The work was carried out online during 2018 and 2019, and also face‐to‐face meetings took place to obtain a draft curriculum open for discussion that was presented to all the Spanish universities. The final modifications to the document were specified in a Consensus Conference of Spanish universities offering a Degree in Dentistry that took place in Madrid on 19 November 2019. Results Thirty‐eight university experts, under SCCG supervision, participated in the elaboration of the new framework document. A total of 16 universities, from 23 invited, reached a consensus as to the contents of the Spanish Curriculum in Cariology for undergraduate dental students. This new Curriculum emphasises learning outcomes, uses a consensus‐based terminology pertaining to caries and other hard‐tissue conditions, and introduces a new domain of competence in Domain III of ECCC. Conclusion This new Cariology Curriculum is the result of a very broad‐based consensus of university experts in Spain and lays the foundation for the implementation of an integrated teaching of Cariology in Spain in adherence to Alliance for a Caries Free Future (ACFF) objectives.
cAMP response element‐binding protein 1 is required for hydroxyurea‐mediated induction of γ‐globin expression in K562 cells

Field: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology (Life Sciences)

Summary Hydroxyurea ( HU ) is a drug used for the treatment of haemoglobinopathies. Hydroxyurea functions by upregulating γ‐globin transcription and fetal haemoglobin ( H b F ) production in erythroid cells. The K 562 erythroleukaemia cell line is widely used as a model system in which to study the mechanism of γ‐globin induction by HU . However, the transcription factors required for the upregulation of γ‐globin expression by HU in K 562 cells have not been identified. Similarities between the HU and sodium butyrate ( SB ) pathways suggest cAMP response element‐binding protein ( CREB ) 1 as a potential candidate. Thus, the aim of the present study was to investigate the possible role of CREB 1 in the HU pathway. Experiments were performed using transient and stable RNA interference ( RNA i) to show that CREB1 is necessary for HU ‐mediated induction of γ‐globin expression and haemoglobin production in K 562 cells. Furthermore, western blot analyses demonstrated that CREB 1 becomes phosphorylated in a dose‐dependent manner after HU (100–400 µmol/ L ) treatment of K 562 cells for 72 h. We also investigated role of a G γ promoter CREB 1 response element ( G ‐ CRE ) in this pathway. Quantitative amplification refractory mutation system–polymerase chain reaction experiments were performed to demonstrate that HU induces the expression of both G γ and A γ in this cell line. In addition, electrophoretic mobility shift assays were used to show that levels of CREB 1 complexes binding to the G ‐ CRE site are increased following HU treatment and are decreased in CREB 1‐knockdown cells. The results suggest that CREB 1 is necessary for γ‐globin induction by HU in K 562 cells, a role that may be mediated, in part, through the G ‐ CRE element.
