Serum LDH values in childhood acute leukemias and non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Abstract Serum lactate dehydrogenase activity (LDH) was examined in 66 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), 26 with acute non‐lymphocytic leukemia (ANLL), and 116 with non‐Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). The mean serum LDH value for the ALL and ANLL groups was not significantly different: 970 ± 105 units/L (mean ± standard error of the mean) and 817 ± 161 units/L, respectively. The difference between the LDH values in patients with ALL (970 ± 105 units/L) and NHL (551 ± 51 units/L) was significant ( P = .001). In 32% of the patients with ALL and 23% of the patients with ANLL, serum LDH values were above 1000 units/L, whereas only 13% of the cases with NHL had values above 1000 units/L. In patients with ALL the LDH levels were correlated with white blood cell counts at the time of diagnosis. In NHL, there was no difference in serum LDH levels among the various histologic subtypes. Values of LDH in stage IV NHL and in ALL were similar.

Those yields were the highest at the same condition as above except preheating time shortened to 1 hour at . Steaming time had little effect on the yield of water and 60% alcohol extract. The content of starch in red ginseng was reduced effectively by preheating of raw ginseng at . The brown color intensity of red ginseng increased in proportion to preheating temperature in the range of . However, there was no increase in the color intensity at .
A Control Strategy for Passing and Receiving in Virtual Human Soccer

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Virtual human soccer is the concentrated embodiment of virtual human technology and kinematics. In order to realize the nature and reality of controlling the passing and receiving of the ball, the passing and receiving control of the virtual human and the movement track of the soccer ball is studied, and a message mechanism combined with inverse dynamics control strategy is proposed. The interaction of virtual human passing and receiving the ball is divided into execution behavior and contact ball effect. The execution behavior is controlled by the message mechanism to inform and receive the message, which is transmitted to the virtual human. The contact ball effect is in the charge of inverse dynamics, which adjusts the contact part when passing and receiving the ball. Finally, the simulation of football passing and receiving is realized, and the screen is smooth and natural. The experimental results verify the feasibility of this method.

Fiber Optic Internal Thread Probe

Field: Engineering (Physical Sciences)

A feasibility study to develop a fiber-optic probe for measuring features of an internal thread has been carried out. The principle used in this study is the optical triangulation mapping technique. A design of the gage including the optical system is discussed. The design of the optical components is evaluated by use of a computer ray-tracing pogram. In addition, signal detection error analysis is performed to estimate the accuracy of the measurement. Results indicate that the gage accuracy is well within ±2.5 um, which is the desired goal that is meaningful for applications in quality control, quality assurance, and metrology. This accuracy includes the effect of surface roughness, which is minimized by selecting an appropriate diameter of the probing light spot.
Modulation of tk Expression in Mouse Pericentromeric Heterochromatin

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

We have obtained a mouse transformant cell line containing two herpes viral thymidine kinase (tk) genes integrated in pericentromeric heterochromatin. Restriction analysis of tk- revertant and tk+ rerevertant derivatives suggest that one of the two tk genes is repressed in tk- cells, but is reactivated in tk+ rerevertants. The results of Northern analysis indicated that repression-activation is probably controlled at the transcriptional level. To examine the molecular basis for this repression, we cloned the tk gene from a tk- revertant cell line. Then, using the cloned tk gene as donor DNA to select for tk+ transformants, we found that it has a transfection efficiency indistinguishable from the viral tk gene. This indicates that repression is probably not mediated via any DNA sequence changes within the tk gene. The results of further studies by restriction analysis, azacytidine treatments, and secondary DNA transfection assays demonstrated that tk repression is associated with changes in DNA methylation. Surprisingly, derepression of the tk gene was accompanied by rearrangements in the flanking DNA. The latter result suggests that the flanking DNA may exert cis effects on tk gene expression. Additional studies with this system may provide insights into the molecular basis underlying position effects in heterochromatin.
Main Factors Helping India Become the “Wind Eagle” to Attract FDI Amid the Trend of Production Shift from China

Field: Economics, Econometrics and Finance (Social Sciences)

Since Prime Minister Narendra Modi took office in 2014, India has emerged as one of the world’s top destinations for foreign direct investment (FDI). Currently, the impact of the US-China power competition in the Indo-Pacific region is becoming increasingly unpredictable and complex, and multinational investors and companies are tending to shift their production chains out of China, in which India is the country that benefits the most from this process. This study aims to explore and analyze the key factors that have helped India generate strong attraction for foreign investors in the context of the current superpower competition. The article uses a qualitative analysis method through the analysis of secondary data sources, which shows that there are four main factors contributing to India’s current success: (1) abundant and cheap young workforce, especially in the information technology sector; (2) large consumer market with a rapidly growing middle class; (3) India has a stable political and macroeconomic environment; (4) economic reforms and infrastructure efforts by the Indian government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The research results have significance in identifying India’s key competitive advantages that make it an attractive destination for foreign investors; providing practical evidence on the key factors determining India’s FDI attraction; and providing useful information about the business environment, market potential and competitive advantages of India in the current context.

Acute Myeloid Leukemia Presenting as Subcutaneous and Epidural Granulocytic Sarcoma Inside and Outside of the Frontal Bone

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

An 18 year-old male was admitted to our hospital suffering from a large tumor which was located at the right frontal bone. He was diagnosed to have acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with granulocytic sarcoma (GS). A chromosomal analysis showed t (8 ; 21), and a flow cytometric analysis demonstrated the leukemic cells to be positive for CD56. Systemic chemotherapy and radiation therapy to the GS, but the patient experienced a relapse in the lumbar vertebrae. He underwent an umbilical-cord blood stem cell transplantation, however, he died 7 months thereafter. GS is a localized tumor consisting of leukemic myelolasts, which is generally observed as a complication of either AML, myelodysplastic syndrome, or myelobproliferative disorders. We herein report this case due to its rarity, even though various sites of GS have been reported.
Leukemic Transformation in Essential Thrombocythemia

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Essential thrombocythemia patients develop acute myeloid leukemia (AML) at a rate of 1-4% during a median follow-up of 7-10 years. The risk increases with advanced age, anemia, platelet count ≥ 1000 × 10(9)/l, the presence of ≥ 2 somatic mutations and after the first decade of diagnosis. The use of alkylating agents and (32)radiophosphorus, particularly in higher doses, but not hydroxyurea and anagrelide, increases the risk. AML in essential thrombocythemia patients is frequently associated with unfavorable cytogenetics and poor prognosis. In young and fit patients, AML-type induction chemotherapy followed by allogeneic stem cell transplantation may offer the best chance of long-term disease control. In select elderly patients with poor performance status, hypomethylating agent such as azacytidine may prolong survival.
Assessment of radar interferometry performance for ground subsidence monitoring due to underground mining

Field: Earth and Planetary Sciences (Physical Sciences)

Abstract This paper describes the results from the recently launched SAR satellites for the purpose of subsidence monitoring over underground coal mine sites in the state of New South Wales, Australia, using differential interferometric synthetic aperture radar (DInSAR) technique. The quality of the mine subsidence monitoring results is mainly constrained by noise due to the spatial and temporal decorrelation between the interferometric pair and the phase discontinuities in the interferogram. This paper reports on the analysis of the impact of these two factors on the performance of DInSAR for monitoring ground deformation. Simulations were carried out prior to real data analyses. SAR data acquired using different operating frequencies, for example, X-, C- and L-band, from the TerraSAR-X, ERS-1/2, ENVISAT, JERS-1 and ALOS satellite missions, were examined. The simulation results showed that the new satellites ALOS, TerraSAR-X and COSMO-SkyMed perform much better than the satellites launched before 2006. ALOS and ENVISAT satellite SAR images with similar temporal coverage were searched for the test site. The ALOS PALSAR DInSAR results have been compared to DInSAR results obtained from ENVISAT ASAR data to investigate the performance of both satellites for ground subsidence monitoring. Strong phase discontinuities and decorrelation have been observed in almost all ENVISAT interferograms and hence it is not possible to generate the displacement maps without errors. However these problems are minimal in ALOS PALSAR interferograms due to its spatial resolution and longer wavelength. Hence ALOS PALSAR is preferred for ground subsidence monitoring in areas covered by vegetation and where there is a high rate ground deformation.

Integrating Biosignals Measurement in Virtual Reality Environments for Anxiety Detection

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

This paper proposes a protocol for the acquisition and processing of biophysical signals in virtual reality applications, particularly in phobia therapy experiments. This protocol aims to ensure that the measurement and processing phases are performed effectively, to obtain clean data that can be used to estimate the users’ anxiety levels. The protocol has been designed after analyzing the experimental data of seven subjects who have been exposed to heights in a virtual reality environment. The subjects’ level of anxiety has been estimated based on the real-time evaluation of a nonlinear function that has as parameters various features extracted from the biophysical signals. The highest classification accuracy was obtained using a combination of seven heart rate and electrodermal activity features in the time domain and frequency domain.
Effect of Regulatory Focus on Food Variety-Seeking Behavior of Chinese Tourists

Field: Psychology (Social Sciences)

While limited attention has been paid to personality traits that influence tourists’ variety-seeking behavior with respect to food, evidence shows that Chinese people choose less variety than their counterparts in Western countries. We propose that regulatory focus influences consumers’ food variety-seeking behavior. Building on the theoretical alignment between regulatory focus, food neophobia, and food variety-seeking tendency, this research examines the effect of regulatory focus on Chinese consumers’ food variety-seeking behavior through three studies. Study 1 indicates that prevention-focused consumers have lower food variety-seeking intention than promotion-focused consumers. Study 2 shows that the former have higher food neophobia, leading to lower intention to seek food variety. Food neophobia plays the mediating role. Study 3 examines the moderating role of psychological safety, which can decrease food neophobia’s negative influence on seeking food variety. The results and implications of our findings are presented in the discussion section.

Minimum Connected Dominating Set Under Routing Cost Constraint in Wireless Sensor Networks With Different Transmission Ranges

Field: Computer Science (Physical Sciences)

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are used to cover destination areas for a lot of practical applications. To enhance the performance of the WSN, the virtual backbone based on the connected dominating set is an efficient way with respect to the routing cost between sensors, lifetime of entire network, and so on. In this paper, especially for the WSN with different transmission radii among different sensors, we study the problem of constructing the minimum ρ-range connected dominating set under the constraint α-times of the minimum routing cost (αMOC-ρCDS), where α ) 5 and ρ is the ratio of the maximum-to-minimum transmission radius. Our contributions are three folds. First, we propose a polynomial time approximation scheme which generates the αMOC-ρCDS with the size of at most (1 + ϵ) times of the optimum solution, where ϵ is the error parameter. Second, we propose a polynomial time algorithm and prove that it has two approximation ratios (6ρ+1) 2 (2ρ+1) 2 and 10[(2π/θ)I[(ln 3ρ/(ln(1/ cos θ)))] [(ln ρ/(ln(2 cos(π/5))))], where θ <; arcsin(1/3ρ). Finally, we propose the distributed version of the constant approximation ratio algorithm which has both the time complexity and message complexity O(n3), where n is the number of sensor nodes. Besides, the simulation results demonstrate the efficiency of our algorithms.
On the Theory of the Optical Potential for Even‐Even Deformed Nuclei

Field: Physics and Astronomy (Physical Sciences)

Abstract Optical‐model potentials are constructed for nucleon‐nucleus scattering. The contribution of collective states to the imaginary part of the optical potential is investigated; the interaction between the incident nucleon and an even‐even deformed target nucleus is considered in the weak coupling scheme of the Semiphenomenological Model of the Nucleus. The potentials constructed are in good agreement with the phenomenological ones. Numerical estimates are given for the target nucleus 156 Gd at the incident energy 16 Mev.
Validation for the Diagnostic Use of the HEART Score in Patients With Acute Chest Pain in Japan

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

The HEART score was reliable for predicting MACE within 30 days in patients presenting to the ED with chest pain in this single center study in Japan. Low-risk patients with HEART scores ≤3 can be safely ruled out for ACS. Considering the highest troponin level for scoring improved its diagnostic utility.
Daylength and sexual maturation in female house mice

Field: Agricultural and Biological Sciences (Life Sciences)

Abstract A series of 4 experiments investigated the relationship between daylength and sexual maturation in female house mice. Mice reared in constant light matured significantly later than mice maintained under photoperiods involving 0, 6, 12, or 18 hr of light/day. Results of an experiment involving cross‐classified combinations of pre‐ and postweaning photoperiods revealed that only the postweaning photoperiod treatment was a significant factor influencing the attainment of puberty. Studies of body growth, food consumption, and wheel‐running activity in young females housed under different photoperiods indicated that mice kept in constant light grew more slowly during the first 10 days after weaning, generally consumed more food than mice at other photoperiod conditions, and failed to exhibit regular daily activity patterns like those of mice maintained under photoperiods of 0 or 12 hr of Night/day. Constant illumination apparently disrupts the normal physiological and behavioral activity rhythms and delays the attainment of sexual maturity.
[Treatment of fractures of the orbital floor].

Field: Medicine (Health Sciences)

Extensive fractures of the orbital floor are often combined with other fractures of the facial skeleton, and require surgical treatment and reconstruction. In some cases the reconstructed orbital floor needs temporary support from the maxillary sinus to facilitate healing in the correct position. Over a period of 18 months a new low-pressure balloon, made from silicon with a tetrahedron shape, was used in 24 of 47 patients with lateral midface fractures. The post-operative results are presented and the treatment regimen is discussed.
Successes and Challenges in Patient Care Transition Programming: One Hospital’s Journey

Field: Health Professions (Health Sciences)

The 2013 addition of the Care Transition Measures to the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) survey; enactment of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (2010); and a greater focus on population health have brought a heightened awareness and need for action with patient transitions. Data are emerging from the additional Care Transition Measures and benchmarks have been developed. This article briefly describes the context of care transition. We describe the journey of Indiana University Health North Hospital to overcome patient care transition obstacles, ultimately achieving designation as a top performer. We will discuss our efforts to personalize patient outcomes and transition through activation and improve transitions for vulnerable populations, specifically in the bariatric and orthopedic patient populations. The article concludes with discussion of overcoming obstacles and future directions with continued focus on collaboration and improvement.

Synthesis, hydrolysis reactions and conformational study of 2-substituted 3,5-diamino-4-nitroso-2H-1,2,6-thiadiazine 1,1-dioxides

Field: Chemistry (Physical Sciences)

The 2-substituted 3,5-diamino-4-nitroso-2H-1,2,6-thiadiazine 1,1-dioxides are present in solution as a mixture of two rotational conformers of the nitroso group that are stabilized by hydrogen bonds with the amino groups in positions 3 and 5. The stability of these conformations has been studied using 1H, 13C and 15N NMR spectroscopy, as well as molecular orbital ab initio calculations. In addition, hydrolysis reactions of these compounds have been carried out affording 5-amino-4-hydroxyimino-3-oxo-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,2,6-thiadiazine 1,1-dioxides and 4-amino-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1,2,5-thiadiazole 1,1-dioxides.
Personalization at different levels: Intra-party competition and preference voting in local elections

Field: Social Sciences (Social Sciences)

Personalization refers to a shift over time in attention and/or power from collective actors to individuals. I focus on personalization in voting behavior, measured by the use of preference voting in flexible list-PR systems. I will argue that in a multi-level context this kind of personalization can take place at different policy levels, which could influence each other. In local elections, voters can be attracted by the mayor and/or other local figureheads, but also by the national party leader and/or national politicians figuring on the local list. Therefore, scholars should not only focus on the number and importance of people to which personalization applies (‘person level’ of personalization), but also on how processes at one policy level impact on other policy levels (‘territorial level’ of personalization). By combining literature on intra-party competition and personalization on the one hand, and on electoral patterns in multi-level states on the other, I engage in a conceptual discussion about the nature of personalization. I add empirical evidence to this conceptual discussion by analyzing preference voting patterns in local elections in Flanders (Belgium). As such, we gain more insights in the remarkable decline of preference voting that took place there.
