CONTROLLING OF MEASUREMENT PROCESS OF STRONG GROUND MOTION USING MOBILE TECHNOLOGIES IN SEJS-NET SYSTEM

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

The SEJS-NET system is based on Internet technology and is designed for monitoring of strong ground motion and building vibration. The system, making use of present feasibilities of telecommunication, conducts automatically, practically without maintenance, recording of seismic vibrations at any number of measurement points. The access through a WWW browser to a recording database, equipment with handy and flexible functions for visualization, selecting, editing, and maintained in the Measurement Central Base – the system’s server, is independent of mutual location of Recording Stations, the Central Base and user’s workstation. Thanks to implemented solution, SEJS-NET system, supporting routine processing of collected data, builds at the same time a simple and flexible basis for advanced processing. Designers of sophisticated measuring systems try to use high telecommunication technology, which gives possibility to make easier controlling of measurement process and data distribution. The work presents practical application of WAP technology in SEJS-NET system. Implemented WMOBILE module gives access to system resources via WAP browser from mobile phones and palmtop browsers.
Postural stability and fall risk in adult patients with familial mediterranean fever

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

INTRODUCTION: In this study, our purpose was to determine the postural stability and fall risk by an objective computerized technique in patients with Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF), together with their relevant potential risk factors for falls. METHODS: 45 patients diagnosed with FMF (mean age 31+-10 years; range 17 to 53 years) and 40 healthy controls (mean age 31+-9 years; range 18 to 50 years) were included in the study. We used the Falls Efficacy Scale (FES-I) for assessment of fall efficacy. The disease severity score was assessed. Stability Index (SI), Weight Distribution Index (WDI), and fall risk analysis were performed by the computerized posturography device. RESULTS: The rate of falls in the last year was higher in the patient group (p<0.05). Significant differences were found between groups regarding SI and WDI values (p<0.05). A higher fall risk was determined in the patient group (p<0.05). However, except female gender, no significant relationships were found between SI, WDI, and fall risk and disease-related factors such as age, body mass index, duration and severity of the disease, the last 1-year fall history, and FES-I (r<0.3, p>0.05). Moreover, while significant positive correlations were determined between all parameters of SI and fall risk (r>0.3, p<0.001), no relationship was found between WDI and fall risk (r<0.3, p>0.05) except close eyes-head extended (HB-WDI) (r= 0.003, p<0.001). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: Postural stability was impaired and fall risk increased in FMF. This result might result from FMF disease or many other factors being capable of affecting the balance.
Antinomies of representation

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

This article addresses a profound anthropological issue: how do representation and the\nrepresented relate? What motivates or warrants the inevitable disconnection? It is a mistake\nto dismiss representation as misguided, oppressive, or misleading. Representation is part of\ncognition generally and natural language in particular. As such it is inescapable and part of\nhow we think and talk about the world. Moving between visual and linguistic anthropology\nI suggest that photographs and portraits provide a rich basis for thinking about the\nparticular sorts of warrants for anthropological representations. The general conclusion is\nthat anthropological representation may be conceived of as a form of ekphrasis (a verbal\naccount or evocation of a typically non-present image or object) providing the indexical\nor deictic bridge between representation and the object represented. As “similarity implies\ndifference” so “representation implies ekphrasis.”
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES TO INCREASE THE QUALITY OF READING LITERACY

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

An elementary school is a learning environment that serves as a springboard for kids' development into Pancasila-like individuals. Because the only source of revenue is school operational aid, students have difficulty finding other sources of income. It is impossible to optimize the financing components to improve reading literacy. This occurs as a result of the fact that educational policies influence school financial policies. The dualism of rules, notably the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Ministry of Education and Culture, must also be considered when discussing financing. As a result, determining the efficacy of reading literacy development programs is difficult. Based on this description, a Financial Management Strategy for Improving the Quality of Reading Literacy is required. This research aims to show how strategic planning is employed, how the strategy is implemented, and what the results of the financial management strategy are. This study takes a qualitative approach and uses the case study method. The research found that the school, in collaboration with the parents' association, conducts strategic planning, and the committee is planning the optimization of the school library, which is managed by teachers and associations, as well as the activation of book maintenance, which is charged to the borrower. During the implementation of this technique, the parents' association takes turns as a library manager, manages the agreement's results on maintenance fees, and teachers merely assist with reading and writing activities, as well as school literacy competitions. As a result of this technique, pupils are more familiar with reading literacy exercises, and libraries that were previously unaccredited are now accredited.
Spatio‐temporal regulation of the formation of the somatosensory system

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

The somatosensory system in the brain has been widely used for investigating the mechanisms underlying neural circuit formation and developmental neural plasticity. In the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) of rodents, there are discrete cytoarchitectonic units called barrels. Reverse genetic analyses using knockout mice have revealed molecules that control spatial pattern formation of barrels in S1. Glutamatergic receptors such as the NMDA receptor and m G luR5, and molecules related to serotonin such as serotonin transporter and monoamine oxidase A are essential for the formation of barrels. In addition to the mechanisms of spatial pattern formation, those regulating the timing of developmental processes were uncovered recently. Barrels are formed soon after the birth of newborn mouse pups from their mothers, and it was shown that the timing of barrel formation was determined by the timing of the birth of mouse pups. The mechanisms downstream of birth were also examined. It would be intriguing to examine if the mechanisms found using the somatosensory system are applicable to other brain regions.
Variability of the IL-10 Gene and Susceptibility to PulmonaryTuberculosis in Venezuelan Patients

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

Background: Interleukin 10 (IL-10) has been implicated in the
protective immunity and pathophysiology of tuberculosis (TB). Based on
the hypothesis that genes which regulate IL-10 may influence TB
susceptibility, we investigated IL-10 (1082 A/G, -819 C/T and
–592 A/C) polymorphisms in Venezuelan population. Methods:
Genomic DNA from peripheral blood leukocytes was obtained from 118
unrelated Venezuelan individuals (Pulmonary TB=50, healthy controls =
68). The regions of the IL-10 gene polymorphisms were amplified by
PCR-SSP, using a commercial kit. Genotype frequencies were determined
by direct counting. Results: IL10 -1082 A/A (p< 0.05) were
positively associated with TB, while protective association was
identified for IL-10 -1082 A/G (p<0.05). The comparison of the
genotype frequencies for the -819 C/T and –592 A/C did not show
significant differences between TB patients and controls (p > 0.05).
Conclusion: Our findings suggest that -1082 IL-10 gene polymorphisms
may play a role in susceptibility or resistance to TB in Venezuelan
population.
Emotion and the popularization of anti-Jewish discourse in early modern Europe

Field: Arts and Humanities (Social Sciences)

The work argues that we need to nuance the perception of the early modern period as one of bland continuity in European anti-Jewish and anti-Semitic thought and discourse by closely examining early modern printed works of anti-Jewish propaganda created for a 'popular' readership and their 'emotional' dimension. There are discernible trends in some early modern polemics and their anti-Jewish discourse that the study of emotions can help us understand why the notion that the Talmud taught the Jews to hate and want to kill Gentiles became a perennial and dominant feature of anti-Jewish propaganda produced in the West in the early modern period. Authors seeking to create a sense of collective 'self' needed a fear- and horror-inducing Jewish 'other'. The traditional image of the obdurate, pitiful but essentially helpless Jew of Augustinian theology was, accordingly, discarded by such authors. In its place, Rabbinic Judaism became caricatured as a death cult whose leaders the Rabbis – or rather 'Talmudists' as they were derisively called – inspired hatred of Christians from one generation of Jews to another; a hatred supposedly enacted not only in supposed economic parasitism but in the systematical and ritualized murder of innocent Christian men, women, and children.
Oscillatory Neural Networks

Field: Neuroscience (Life Sciences)

Despite the fact that a large number of neuronal oscillators have been described, there are only a few good examples that illustrate how they operate at the cellular level. For most, there is some isolated information about different aspects of the oscillator network, but too little to explain the whole mechanism. Two quite remarkable features do seem to be emerging from ongoing studies, however. One is that there are very few generalizable features common to neural oscillators. Many utilize reciprocal inhibitory circuits and endogenous burst-generating currents to some extent. All that have been well worked out utilize a combination of both cellular and network properties, but little else in the way of common mechanism is noteworthy. Perhaps the most interesting aspect of recent work is the ability of a particular oscillator to produce a large repertoire of different outputs. This is separate and in addition to changes occurring via phasic sensory feedback. It is in fact a radical functional "rewiring" of the network in response to neuromodulators. The CPG circuits represent only the most basic form of a given pattern. Finally, concerning the role of sensory feedback in generating oscillatory patterns, the concept of the CPG as a group of neurons able to produce oscillatory patterns without any sensory feedback is, in our opinion, still valid. There is no doubt that some oscillators may be quite weak when isolated, but they can still produce bursts with firing sequences similar to those seen in vivo. The fact that sensory feedback can both control and enhance the oscillations has never been in doubt. Similarly, entrainment of the pattern by sensory feedback does not mean that the receptor is part of the generator, only that it has access to it (as do command and coordinating fibers). The real question remains: Can a group of cells produce an oscillatory pattern without phasic sensory input? We must answer this affirmatively even for the insect-flight motor CPG, while emphasizing the fact that for this system sensory feedback plays a larger role than in most other CPGs. Most neural oscillators will probably fall on some continuum between those like insect flight, which need and use a large amount of phasic feedback, and those that can oscillate in a near-normal manner without it.
Breeding-Season Diet of Northern Saw-Whet Owls in Southwestern Idaho

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

The Northern Saw-whet Owl (Aegolius acadicus) is common inhabitant of forested lands from central Canada south to the central United Stated (Godfrey 1986). Despite its wide range, very little is known of its breeding biology (Cannings 1987). Catling (1972) noted that food habits data from the breeding season are "very meagre." Indeed, we know of only one large sample of Northern Saw-whet Owl food habits from the breeding season (Cannings 1987).
Model Uncertainty in Cloud–Circulation Coupling, and Cloud-Radiative Response to Increasing CO2, Linked to Biases in Climatological Circulation

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Recent analyses of global climate models suggest that uncertainty in the coupling between midlatitude clouds and the atmospheric circulation contributes to uncertainty in climate sensitivity. However, the reasons behind model differences in the cloud–circulation coupling have remained unclear. Here, we use a global climate model in an idealized aquaplanet setup to show that the Southern Hemisphere climatological circulation, which in many models is biased equatorward, contributes to the model differences in the cloud–circulation coupling. For the same poleward shift of the Hadley cell (HC) edge, models with narrower climatological HCs exhibit stronger midlatitude cloud-induced shortwave warming than models with wider climatological HCs. This cloud-induced radiative warming results predominantly from a subsidence warming that decreases cloud fraction and is stronger for narrower HCs because of a larger meridional gradient in the vertical velocity. A comparison of our aquaplanet results with comprehensive climate models suggests that about half of the model uncertainty in the midlatitude cloud–circulation coupling stems from this impact of the circulation on the large-scale temperature structure of the atmosphere, and thus could be removed by improving the climatological circulation in models. This illustrates how understanding of large-scale dynamics can help reduce uncertainty in clouds and their response to climate change.
P0464 TABLE TO TOILET (T.T.T ) PROGRAM FOR MANAGEMENT OF CRONIC CONSTIPATION AND ENCOPRESIS

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Introduction: Chronic constipation and encopresis is one of the most common problems in Pediatrics. About 30–35 percent of daily clinic visits of Pediatric Gastroenterology consist of this problem. Most children have a history of taking multiple medications without improvement. The TTT program (Table To Toilet) was designed in our clinic with excellent results. Methods: This program includes that the patient go from the table to the toilet after meals and sit ten to twelve minutes. For children that have not been toilet trained, parents were instructed to hold the child in knee chest position while sitting on a chair. They were treated with a one-time enema if they had impaction followed by a stool softener (Polyethylene Glycol, Mineral oil, Lactulose) plus Senna extract. The stool softener and Senna were given together. This combination helps to maintain softness of stool while also helping with evacuation. The TTT program was instructed as mentioned above and each child was given a diary to record daily toileting. They were told that they might require hospitalization the next visit if they did not follow the instruction. This was mentioned so each would understand the seriousness of the problem and importance of treatment. All patients agreed to try their best. The medication was continued for at least one month regardless of improvement and continued even if the child was having regular bowel movements. Results: From January 1999 to September 2003, 689 patients were seen with constipation and encopresis at our clinic. Of these, 492 had constipation and 197 with encopresis. These included 430 males and 259 females with the age range of 3 to 16 years. Ninety percent improved remarkably after 2 monthly visits when they followed the medications and instructions. The others needed more visits for control of their problem. Recurrences happened if stopped medication early or refused to continue toileting. Conclusion: Behavior modification as TTT program will be helpful in the management of most patients with constipation and encopresis. Medication alone will result in temporary improvement while bowel-training results in complete resolution without recurrence, if continued toileting and without need of medications.
Efficient Planar Surface-Based 3D Mapping Method for Mobile Robots Using Stereo Vision

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Environmental mapping plays an important role in the field of robotics. Conventional voxel-based occupancy grid models largely reduce system mapping efficiency for huge quantities of grid cells. This paper presents an efficient method of 3D grid modeling using stereo vision based on planar surfaces. This method first uses matching key feature points with a multi-random sample consensus algorithm to estimate plane parameters and then clusters pre-processed point cloud data located on the same plane. Next, a split and combining algorithm is used to generate 3D planar grid approximation representations of the environment. The occupancy probabilities of grid cells are estimated and updated by using the Kullback-Leibler divergence. Finally, a series of experiments including map qualitative analysis and performance tests, are adopted to evaluate the presented method in indoor and outdoor environments. The results of the experiments and performance evaluation illustrate the capabilities of our approach in generating efficient 3D maps.
Common elements in interleukin 4 and insulin signaling pathways in factor-dependent hematopoietic cells.

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

Interleukin 4 (IL-4), insulin, and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) efficiently induced DNA synthesis in the IL-3-dependent murine myeloid cell lines FDC-P1 and FDC-P2. Although these factors could not individually sustain long-term growth of these lines, a combination of IL-4 with either insulin or IGF-I did support continuous growth. The principal tyrosine-phosphorylated substrate observed in FDC cells stimulated with IL-4, previously designated 4PS, was of the same size (170 kDa) as the major substrate phosphorylated in response to insulin or IGF-I. These substrates had phosphopeptides of the same size when analyzed by digestion with Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease, and each tightly associated with the 85-kDa component of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase after factor stimulation. IRS-1, the principal substrate phosphorylated in response to insulin or IGF-I stimulation in nonhematopoietic cells, is similar in size to 4PS. However, anti-IRS-1 antibodies failed to efficiently precipitate 4PS, and some phosphopeptides generated by V8 protease digestion of IRS-1 were distinct in size from the phosphopeptides of 4PS. Nevertheless, IL-4, insulin, and IGF-I were capable of stimulating tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 in FDC cells that expressed this substrate as a result of transfection. These findings indicate that (i) IL-4, insulin, and IGF-I use signal transduction pathways in FDC lines that have at least one major feature in common, the rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of 4PS, and (ii) insulin and IGF-I stimulation of hematopoietic cell lines leads to the phosphorylation of a substrate that may be related to but is not identical to IRS-1.
An Evaluation of the Applicability of A.N.S.I. Standard PH-2.9 to Contemporary Medical X-Ray Films Designated for Automated Processing

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Three medium speed screen-type medical x-ray films were exposed and manually processed in accordance with the procedures outlined in A.N.S.I. Standard PH-2.9, "Sensitometry of Medical X-Ray Films". Subsequent to processing, all samples were evaluated upon the response variables of base plus fog density, maximum density, A.N.S.I. speed, and A.N.S.I. contrast. A second set of film samples, exposed identically to the manually processed samples, were processed in a ninety-second cycle automated system. After sensitometric evaluation of the automated samples, a statistical comparison of the results obtained by both processing procedures was executed. In the second phase of the investigation, a factorial experiment was executed in an attempt to generate a mathematical model for the sensitometric responses of the films under test to manual processing with metol - hydroquinone developer formulations. Based upon the data yielded from the factorial experiment, several optimized developer formulas and manual processing procedures were devised in an attempt to more closely approximate the results achieved with automated processing of the films utilized in the experiment.
Fish Consumption by Vietnamese Women Immigrants: A Comparison of Methods

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

In this study, the measurement properties of an interview-administered fish consumption frequency questionnaire, used with a pilot study of 20 Vietnamese immigrant women, were described. Reproducibility across two summer interviews and one winter interview for estimates of seasonal and yearly intake of Great Lakes fish was moderate (intraclass correlation coefficients: .51-.61). Detailed questioning, by species, resulted in higher estimates of mean overall consumption (44.6-57.8 meals/y) than did asking about any fresh-water fish consumed (33.5-46.1; differences 5.1-15.7). Estimates based on the fish consumption frequency questionnaire (i.e., 6.2+/-2.0 meals per winter season) were comparable with those based on extrapolation from a 1-mo calendar (5.8+/-5.6); however, both estimates of consumption were far less than a weighed record (29.1+/-22.2). The results of this study suggest that measurement variation in fish consumption estimates should be detailed in research reports and should be discussed with respect to risk assessments.
THE EXPERIMENTAL STUDY 0N CHOLESTEROL-REDUCING EFFECTS AND TOLERANCE PROPERTY OF LACTOBACTERIA ISOLATED FROM KEFIR GRAIN

Field: Pharmacology, Toxicology and Pharmaceutics (Life Sciences)

Objective To investigate the cholesterol-reducing effects and tolerance property of Lactobacteria isolated from Kefir grain in vitro. Method In imitating gastroenteric environments,such as low pH (2.0～4.0) and high bile salt concentration (0.2%-0.4%),the survival counts of Lactobacteria was carried out and cholesterol-reducing effects were studied. Results The strains of KTX,KS4 and KL1 had more survival counts in eaperimental condition and KTX. KS4 were isolated as more tolerant strains to gastro-enteric environments and could reduce cholesterol in vitro. Conclusion Lactobacteria isolated from Kefir grain had tolerant properties and cholesterol-reducing effects in vitro.
Management of non-successful treatment outcome

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

Many patients who fail temporomandibular joint surgery are left with conditions that are more severe than those that prompted the treatment. The rate of success of repeat surgeries decreases with each additional surgery performed. A careful diagnosis after surgical failure is necessary to discover prior incomplete or inappropriate diagnoses, and misdiagnosis. A concerted effort to treat a patient with failed surgery by non-surgical methods is necessary before proceeding with another surgery. The most conservative, individualized surgical approach should be used when repeat surgery is needed.
