A RESEARCH OF SEISMICALLY ISOLATED BUILDINGS IN THE EXPECTED FLOODED AREA BY A TSUNAMI DUE TO NANKAI TROUGH EARTHQUAKE

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

The purpose of this research is to grasp the number and information of seismically isolated buildings (SIBs) that are expected flooded by a tsunami that is generated due to the Nankai Trough earthquake and to show the relation between the expected flooded area and SIBs. We gather information about SIBs in Japan and research the expectation of tsunami inundation in the Nankai Trough earthquake. In addition, we research the SIBs that are expected flooded by a tsunami due to this earthquake based on those results and compile these information.
Heterogeneity of transport systems for L-glutamine in mouse mammary gland.

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

The characteristics of the transport systems of L-glutamine in lactating mouse mammary gland have been studied. L-glutamine uptake was mediated by three Na+-dependent and one Na+-independent systems. The 2-(methylamino)isobutyric acid-sensitive component of Na+-dependent uptake exhibited the usual characteristics of system A. The other two Na+-dependent systems, which we have named BCI(-)-dependent and BCl(-)-independent, are the new systems identified. These are broad specificity systems and were discriminated on the basis of inhibition analysis, Cl- dependency and the effect of preloading mammary tissue with amino acids. While L-aspargine inhibited the uptake of L-glutamine via both these broad specificity systems, L-homoserine inhibited the uptake of L-glutamine via only BCl(-)-dependent system. The uptake of L-glutamine via the BCl(-)-independent system was upregulated by preloading mammary tissue with L-serine, while BCl(-)-dependent system was unaffected. The Na+-independent uptake of L-glutamine was inhibited by 2-aminobicyclo-(2,2,1)heptane carboxylic acid and other neutral amino acids, and identified as the system L.
An Analysis of Sailors Academic Success in the Navy College Program Distance Learning Partner (NCPDLP) Schools

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This thesis analyzes the Sailors academic success in the TA-funded courses taken in the Navy College Program Distance Learning Partnership (NCPDLP) Program partner institutions. This study also investigates the effect of institutional characteristics on the academic success of students. The data files obtained from Navy Education and Training Command (NETC) and Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System are merged to generate the data set used in the analysis. The analysis suggests that Sailors who take courses via Distance Learning (DL) methods in the NCPDLP partner schools have lower course completion rates and lower grade point averages than Sailors who take DL courses in other types of schools. The analysis also indicates that Sailors who enroll in private for-profit schools receive higher grades in TA-funded courses than Sailors who enroll in public or private nonprofit schools.
Some protein, lipoprotein and lipid alterations in serum of show jumping horses during different phases of training

Field: Veterinary (Health Sciences)

The serum total protein, lipoprotein and lipid content, together with the relative contribution of their separate fractions was evaluated in six healthy show jumping horses. The blood was sampled in the pre-jumping period, after the first (100cm) and second (120cm) jump, and again in the rest period 60 minutes after the end of the event. A significant increase of total protein level was found in the post-jumping serum sampls. The relative contribution of the protein fractions separated by paper electrophoresis was changed during the exercise. An increas in the relative amount of albumins was accompanied by a decrease in the relative amount of alpha globulins in post-jumping borse sera. The total lipoprotein, beta lipoprotein and cholesterol levels increased significantly in the samples obtained 60 minute after the jumpings. Serum lipoproteins were separated into four fractions: pre-alpha, pre-beta and beta lipoproteins, by agarose gel electrophoresis. In the rest period and during the event the alpha lipoproteins were the major fraction although in the serum samples obtained 60 minutes after the jumping, their relative amount significantly decreased, while the beta lipoprotein increased, due to the increasing needs of muscle tissue for energy.
Identification and sequence analysis of a dreb subfamily transcription factor involved in drought stress tolerance from rice

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

DRE (dehydration responsive element)/CRT (C-repeat) is a cis-acting element that involves in gene expression responsive to abiotic stress in higher plants. To date, all well known DREBP transcription factors in Arabidopsis, rice, maize and other plants regulate gene expression in response to drought, high-salt and cold stresses by binding specifically to DRE/CRT. Using a target sequence of 50 nucleotides on Glutamate dehydrogenase-like protein (JRC2606) promoter containing the core sequence of DRE cis-acting element (A/GCCGAC) for yeast one-hybrid screening, we have identified two transcription factors: a completely homology of OsRAP2.4A gene and another is a new sequence. The new sequence contained an ORF (Open Reading Frame) of 1017-bp and 5’ non-coding area of 35-bp and 3’ non-coding area of 341-bp. The deduced amino acid sequence contains an AP2 domain and belongs to the subgroup A6 of DREB subfamily, temporarily named OsRAP2.4B. Sequence alignment showed that OsRap2.4B had homology with ZmDBF, a maize transcription factor involved in drought stress tolerance.
Epidemiology and Treatment of Patients With Primary Open Angle Glaucoma in Germany: A Health Claims Data Analysis

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Précis: Based on a large administrative database of German claims data, our study provides current estimates of the prevalence and incidence of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) in Germany and describes selected outcomes for prevalent patients with POAG. Purpose: To estimate the prevalence and incidence of POAG in Germany, to describe the patient population in terms of comorbidity burden, routine care, and overall healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) and associated costs, and to describe treatment patterns over time in patients undergoing relevant laser procedures. Materials and Methods: Based on anonymized German claims data, we carried out a retrospective, noninterventional study covering calendar years 2016–2021. Results: For the adult German population (≥18 y), we estimated a POAG 1-year prevalence of 1.70% and a 1-year incidence of 0.17% in 2018; both increased with age, peaking in 80- to 89-year-olds. Prevalence and incidence were lower in 2020 (1.65% and 0.16%, respectively), the first year of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Most patients solely received topical treatment. Most surgically treated patients underwent laser trabeculoplasty, followed by laser iridotomy, trabeculectomy, and filtration operations with implant. In patients undergoing laser trabeculoplasty, the treatment regimen was nearly unchanged in the second year after, compared with 2 years before the procedure. Multimorbidity was commonly observed; 75.5% of patients had arterial hypertension and 50.0% had disorders of lipoprotein metabolism and other lipidemias, compared with 60.1% and 39.2%, respectively, in an age- and sex-matched control sample. Conclusions: Our study provides insights into epidemiology and routine care of POAG in Germany and HCRU in prevalent patients. There was little change in treatment regimens in patients who underwent laser trabeculoplasty, 2 years after the procedure. Most patients were multimorbid highlighting the need for comprehensive care.
Comments On The Proposed Conservation Of Cryptus Fabricius 1804 Insecta Hymenoptera

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

It is depressing to see a proposal to deviate from the normal method of deciding zoological names by the Principle of Priority.I protest against this deviation.As to usage, the preoccupied name Cryptus Fabricius, 1804 was much used in older literature, but as a vaguely understood taxon for species now distributed in about 60 genera and several subtribes.In the last 40 years there have been some 14 nomenclaturally influential publications which either accepted usage of the preoccupied name Cryptus in the ICHNEUMONIDAE or rejected it; two of these accepted it and 12 did not (see the references listed below).I know from personal experience that in most major collections in the Nearctic, Neotropic, Ethiopian and Oriental regions the name Cryptus is not used in labeling specimens.European museums are divided (or confused), which might lend support to van Rossem's application, but the rest of the world has adopted the correct nomenclature and this should not be ignored.

A Case-Based Approach to Interventional Pulmonology: A Focus on Asian Perspectives

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

A Case-Based Approach to Interventional Pulmonology: A Focus on Asian Perspectives focuses on various aspects of Interventional Pulmonology (IP) based on clinical case scenarios. Today, evidence-based medicine and statistics are ruling our daily practice. Thus, each case is unique regardless of what the theory predicts. This asian perspective of Interventional Pulmonology (IP) is also of great importance, given the differences in the etiologies compared to other regions of the world. Asia being the leading region in terms of population and the high incidence of certain airway and lung diseases, is an amazing source for fundamental and clinical research. The contents of the book have been divided into four different sections with a primary aim of case-based scenarios and solutions. Section A consists of diagnostic IP procedures like linear and radial EBUS, navigation bronchoscopy, bronchoscopic lung cryobiopsy (BLC) and cone beam CT. Section B focuses on therapeutic rigid bronchoscopic procedures. Besides airway stenting and laser bronchoscopy, this discusses recent interventions such as bronchial thermoplasty, bronchoscopic lung volume reduction, 3D printing and microwave ablation. Section C is dedicated to pleural procedures focusing on indwelling pleural catheters (IPC) and fibrinolytics. Section D is dedicated to common paediatric IP procedures. Each case is presented with the history, including clinical, radiological, bronchoscopic/pleuroscopic findings and final outcomes. Many of these cases also have video illustrations.
A nomogram for predicting metabolic steatohepatitis: The combination of NAMPT, RALGDS, GADD45B, FOSL2, RTP3, and RASD1

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Objective To identify differentially expressed and clinically significant mRNAs and construct a potential prediction model for metabolic steatohepatitis (MASH). Method We downloaded four microarray datasets, GSE89632, GSE24807, GSE63067, and GSE48452, from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) analysis and weighted gene co-expression network analysis were performed to screen significant genes. Finally, we constructed a nomogram of six hub genes in predicting MASH and assessed it through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration plot, and decision curve analysis (DCA). In addition, qRT-PCR was used for relative quantitative detection of RNA in QSG-7011 cells to further verify the expression of the selected mRNA in fatty liver cells. Results Based on common DEGs and brown and yellow modules, seven hub genes were identified, which were NAMPT, PHLDA1, RALGDS, GADD45B, FOSL2, RTP3, and RASD1. After logistic regression analysis, six hub genes were used to establish the nomogram, which were NAMPT, RALGDS, GADD45B, FOSL2, RTP3, and RASD1. The area under the ROC of the nomogram was 0.897. The DCA showed that when the threshold probability of MASH was 0–0.8, the prediction model was valuable to GSE48452. In QSG-7011 fatty liver model cells, the relative expression levels of NAMPT, GADD45B, FOSL2, RTP3, RASD1 and RALGDS were lower than the control group. Conclusion We identified seven hub genes NAMPT, PHLDA1, RALGDS, GADD45B, FOSL2, RTP3, and RASD1. The nomogram showed good performance in the prediction of MASH and it had clinical utility in distinguishing MASH from simple steatosis.

A pulse width modulation controlled bistable microelectromechanical system

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

This paper describes a pulse width modulation controlled bistable microelectromechanical system (MEMS). A bistable mechanism offers two distinct equilibrium states without requiring input power to stay in either of the stable states. The state of the single digital input bistable MEMS device described in this paper is determined by the duration of the input pulse to the actuators. Applications of bistable mechanisms include MEMS relays and optical switches. By using a single digital input and pulse width modulation control, this design allows for easier integration with digital drive circuitry. This mechanism is able to use a single digital input because it utilizes the difference in time constants between two perpendicular actuators. The design consists of two actuators situated perpendicularly to each other, which are both connected to a hook shape. This hook latches with an opposing hook, which anchored to the substrate, when an input pulse of sufficient duration is applied to the actuators. The hooks will disengage when an input pulse of appropriate duration is applied to the actuators. Operating principles and physical theory behind the actuation technique is discussed in detail. As well, the current state of this research and an analysis of a prototype device fabricated using MUMPs/spl reg/ are discussed.
Brand Placement Recognition

Field: Business, Management and Accounting (Social Sciences)

Abstract This study examines the impact of adding an audible reference to a visually prominent brand placement on recognition of the brand placed. Facilitated recognition scores were used to control for the effects of brand familiarity on brand placement recognition. Subjects exposed to one of two complete movies were asked to indicate recognition of brands that were or were not placed in their movie. Results indicate that brand placement recognition levels achieved by audio-visual prominent placements exceed the recognition rates achieved by visual-only prominent placements. Additionally, familiar brands achieve higher levels of recognition than unfamiliar brands, even when the recognition scores for familiar brands are adjusted for the guessing and constructive recognition that may result from inferences associated with familiar brands.
Effects of vacuolization in aleurone layers on PCD during germinating rice seeds

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

This study explored the vacuolization morphological variation of aleurone cells in germinating rice(Oryza sativa L.)varieties ‘II 128' seeds during the process of PCD,and revealed the effect of vacuolization on the progress of PCD,by using confocal laser scanning microscopy and fluorescent labeling. The results showed that the morphological structure of vacuole changed a lot in the PCD of aleurone layers,the initial small protein-storage merging to a large vacuole,finally vacuoles brokening and disappearing. The vacuolization was a remarkable feature of PCD in aleurone layers. And its process would directly affect the PCD process of aleurone layer. Therefore,the inhibited vacuoles fusion delayed the course of aleurone layers PCD,thus affecting the germination of rice seeds.
Properties of scalable distance minimization problems using the Manhattan metric

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

In multi-objective optimization, scalable test problems are required to test and compare the search abilities of the algorithms in solving large and small-dimensional problems. In this paper, we analyze a generalized Distance Minimization Problem (DMP) that is scalable in the number of decision variables and objectives and can be used with any distance function. Since previous research mostly regarded the behaviour of algorithms for Euclidean distances, in this work, we propose to use the Manhattan metric to measure the distances of solutions towards a set of predefined locations in the decision space. The structure of the Pareto-fronts of this problem widely differ from those of the euclidean problem. We perform an analytical analysis exemplary for low-dimensional instances of the problem to provide an understanding of the general properties and structure, and the challenges that might arise in many-objective many-variable instances. The negative effects on the search behaviour of algorithms are theoretically described, and three different optimization methods (MOEA/D, NSGA-II, SMPSO) are tested to give an understanding of different instances of the problem. The experimental results support our expectations and show that the proposed Manhattan metric DMP is difficult to solve for optimization algorithms even in low-dimensional spaces.

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The article is based on an analysis of observation of 853 patients with complicated forms of cholelithiasis. The average age of patients was 73.5 years, two thirds of them had critical coexistent diseases. The system of treatment proposed by the authors allowed achievement of good results (lethality is less than 5%) while the methods of treatment generally accepted in surgical practice is followed by higher lethality achieving 40%. The work analyzes errors and complications of endoscopic decompressing operations and gives recommendations for their prevention.
Lexical encoding of second language tones in English learners of Mandarin

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

The study investigates how native and non-native differences in tone perception influence lexical encoding of second language (L2) tones. Previous work shows that tone language listeners perceived tones as phonemic categories while non-tone language listeners relied more on psychoacoustic cues such as pitch height to discriminate stimulus tones. However, little is known about the influence of such differences in perception on L2 tonal encoding. In the present study, two experiments were conducted with nineteen English learners of Mandarin and 20 Mandarin native speakers. Experiment 1 was an ABX task. Results showed that while native speakers’ overall performance was superior to L2 listeners’, both groups poorly discriminated tone pairs with shared tone contours (i.e., T2-T3). Experiment 2 was a medium-lag repetition priming task. In the repetition condition, significant facilitations were observed in both language groups. In the minimal-tone-pair condition, despite T2-T3 contrasts posing greater challenge for both groups to accurately distinguish than other tonal contrasts as shown in Experiment 1, positive priming was observed only in the L2 group. The findings from the two experiments suggest that the L2 listeners, although quite proficient in Mandarin, have yet to achieve native-like competence in regard to lexical tones.
Relationship between molecular structure and photoinduced surface relief grating formation using azobenzene-based photochromic amorphous molecular materials

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

The relationship between molecular structure and photoinduced surface relief grating (SRG) formation has been investigated by using azobenzene-based photochromic amorphous molecular materials. It was shown that modulation depth of SRG formed by irradiation with two coherent Ar+ laser beams (488 nm) becomes larger with increasing glass-transition temperature of the material. However, introduction of bulky substituents at both phenyl groups of the azobenzene moiety was undesirable for photoinduced SRG formation. These results were discussed from the viewpoints of frequency of trans–cis and cis–trans isomerization cycles and fluidity of the material upon irradiation.
The Impact of Genetic Testing and Genetic Information on Ethical, Legal and Social Issues in North America

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

This chapter discusses the impact of genetic testing and genetic information. It proposes a framework that facilitates a critical analysis of the ethical, legal, and social issues of genetic testing. The ethical effects include privacy infringement, genetic discrimination, misleading advertisement, psychological impact, and individual autonomy. The legal impacts embrace consistent terminology, referral guidelines, patent wars, and new legislations. The social effects pertain to inequality, higher insurance fees, tax burden, and fear of new eugenics. Information and communication technologies dramatically augment the effect of genetic testing on these outcomes. This chapter argues that information and communication technologies and rapid advances in genetics challenge the existing legislation systems in North America. Therefore, policy-makers need to address the tension between the potential benefits and harms of genetic testing and genetic information.
