The Possible Role of LENR in Dentistry (Reasons, Effects and Prevention)

The possibility of the influence of nuclear effects on the destruction of the tooth surface using dental implants made of titanium is considered. It has been shown for the first time that this process is associated with LENR occurring between selective titanium and calcium isotopes and leading to the formation of a molybdenum isotope. This reaction is stimulated by the growth of natural microbiological cultures located in the oral cavity. The mechanism of such reactions is associated with the formation of coherent correlated states, which are formed due to the topological features of growing microcultures.

A deterministic non-linear model for rainfall-runoff relation

A non-linear model for the rainfall run-off relation is discussed by using the Laplace’s transform in the equation of continuity and storage. The equation of continuity has been converted into a nth order algebraic equation. A simple integration method has also been indicated for the constant input function. Some particular cases are also discussed as a verification of the result, and lastly the linear modern has been deduced as a special case from the non-linear model. The results are in close agreement with that of observed hydrograph.&#x0D;

Online identification and adaptation of LNT models for improved emission control in lean burn automotive engines

In the absence of online emission measurements, the control of lean burn engine after treatment system is often done in a feedforward fashion based on models of feed gas emissions and the after-treatment subsystems. When the ambient conditions (such as humidity) change or the engine components age, these models are no longer accurate, and the performance of the control system that relies on these models may deteriorate. In this paper, we show how the parameters of a lean NOx trap (LNT) model can be identified online using a conventional switching exhaust gas oxygen sensor to improve robustness of the after treatment control system.

Interpretability, aspectual coercion, and event structure in Object-Experiencer verbs: An acceptability study

In this paper, we discuss an experimental, processing-based approach to English Object-Experiencer verbs. We argue that any investigation of the event structure properties of these verbs must crucially take into account not only considerations on the level of the verb, but also the influence of processes which take place when a verb is interpreted in context. We pay particular attention to the role of aspectual coercion, and its interaction with processing in judgments of acceptability. Our results support an analysis of Object-Experiencer verbs as comprising two sub-classes which differ in their event structure: one consisting of verbs which readily allow eventive and/or agentive readings, and the other containing essentially stative verbs, which may be more or less coerced into such readings. However, this latter group of states also behave differently from stative Subject-Experiencer verbs, in line with the causative nature of the former

[Relation between lipid-bound sialic acid in blood serum and plasma andin human tumors].

Athymic mice with transplanted osteosarcoma and carcinoma of the rectum were found to have increased blood plasma levels of lipid-bound sialic acid (LSA). To verify the applicability of the method of LSA determination, patients with cancer of the mammary gland, rectum, and colon were examined for their LSA level. The serum LSA level was significantly increased in patients with cancer of the mammary gland and rectum, compared to levels determined in the serum of healthy volunteers. The serum LSA level elevation was even more pronounced in patients with carcinoma of the colon. In patients with carcinoma of the colon who were in remission at the time of blood collection the serum LSA level was found to be reduced to control values.

Scientific Metaphysics and Ontology

Abstract The phrase scientific metaphysics is controversial and reveals some of the key developments in twentieth‐century analytic philosophy and philosophy of science. This entry reviews some of the major arguments concerning scientific metaphysics in the twentieth century. The logical positivists thought that metaphysics was meaningless and, as such, could have only a pernicious role in science. However, with the demise of logical positivism, other philosophers—that is, Karl Popper (1902–94), Imre Lakatos (1922–74), and W. V. O. Quine (1908–2000)—had much more positive conceptions of the role of metaphysics in science. Other scholars have explicated the more specific roles of metaphysical statements in science.

The Influence of Dissolved Oxygen Concentrations on Three Species of Water Mites (Hydracarina)

The influence of various concentrations of dissolved oxygen on the metabolic rate, survival, accumulation of lactic acid and rate of movement of Hydryphantes tenuabilis from a pond and Lebertia quinquemaculosa and Limnesia undulata from a constant-temperature spring run was investigated. H. tenuabilis proved to be an oxygen regu- lator which reached a maximum oxygen consumption of 483 mm3/g wet wt/hr at about 30% oxygen saturation. L. quinquemaculosa and L. undulata had maximum oxygen consumptions of 568 and 732 mm3/g wet wt/hr, respectively, at the highest oxygen concentration tested, 5.8 mg/l, and appear to be oxygen conformers. H. tenuabilis showed a more variable and higher rate of survival at dissolved oxygen concentrations less than 0.1 mg/l than did either L. quinquemaculosa or L. undulata. None of the three species showed significant accumulation of lactic acid in reduced oxygen concentrations. The rate of movement of L. quinque- maculosa was greatly influenced by the dissolved oxygen concentration, with activity being reduced at low oxygen levels; L. undulata was influ- enced to a lesser degree; and H. tenuabilis was virtually unaffected. The difference in responses of H. tenuabilis to various dissolved oxygen con- centrations as compared to L. undulata and L. quinquemaculosa may result from its evolution in ponds which experience radical changes in oxygen concentrations as opposed to the more uniform conditions of streams inhabited by the other two species.

Carbon‐coated Vanadium Oxide Nanoflowers with K<sup>+</sup> Ions Pre‐embedment as a High‐rate Cathode for Zinc‐Ion Batteries

Abstract Recently, aqueous zinc‐ion batteries have become a promising candidate for energy storage devices due to their low cost, high capacity, and environmental friendliness. However, the low electrical conductivity and irreversible Zn 2+ intercalation/extraction of cathode materials limit the rate performance and cycling stability of Zn‐ion batteries. Herein, carbon‐coated V 2 O 5 nanoflowers with K + pre‐embedment (KVO‐C) were synthesized by hydrothermal and high‐temperature annealing methods, showing enhanced electrical conductivity and crystallinity. Assembled with Zn anode and 2 M Zn(CF 3 SO 3 ) 2 electrolyte, the optimized KVO‐C3 battery achieves a high specific capacity of 389.2 mAh g −1 at a current density of 0.1 A g −1 and retains 85% even with a 50‐fold increase in current density and cycling back to 0.1 A g −1 . KVO‐C3 also shows excellent capacity retention of 77% and coulomb efficiency of nearly 100% after 2000 cycles and delivers a high energy density of 209 Wh kg −1 at a power density of 3500 W kg −1 .

Human capital reporting: Should it be industry specific?

Boards are exploring ways to report the value of intangible assets to investors. This paper explores human capital reporting and notes human capital is not reported within or between industry sectors in a standardised way. As a further development in a suite of models, we propose a framework, the Star Model, as a step in the standardisation of interpreting and reporting on human capital to investors. In developing this model, the authors question whether human capital reports should be industry specific, given that the human capital drivers of value vary across industry groups. For the knowledge-intensive biotechnology industry in particular, there may be a case for parallel forms of news flow from Boards to markets: technical news, financial news and human capital news. We conclude that more empirical research into human capital analysis and reporting in other industry sectors will be needed.

A Literature Review on the Culture of Cheating in Undergraduate Engineering Programs

Anecdotally, cheating is perceived to happen in all Canadian engineering programs in varying degrees. The authors of this study want to understand the cultures of cheating in the Engineering Colleges at the Universities of Saskatchewan and Regina, to inform efforts to reduce the prevalence of cheating. The first step that has been undertaken in this process is a literature review of previous studies on the general topic of cheating in undergraduate engineering programs.As it happens, virtually all of these studies have taken place in the United States, further motivating parallel work here in Canada. Surveys have recently been distributed to students and faculty at the Universities of Saskatchewan and Regina, where the content of those surveys has been strongly influenced by high-quality work carried out by American researchers of this topic.In this paper, we will describe the research work that has been performed previously, and the survey and measurement tools that have been utilized in past studies e.g. PACES-1, PACES-2 and SEED. The general and specific methods that have been employed will be described, and the results will be summarized. For example, it is known that faculty and students often have very different definitions of, and beliefs around, cheating. In practical terms, this manifests itself in the differing attributions of responsibility for cheating.We conclude our paper by constructing a concise framework that summarizes the current understandings of how cheating is defined in an academic context for engineering, the most common ethical footings that underlie those definitions, and the conditional behaviours that result from them. Finally, we speculate on the potential differences that may arise in a Canadian context, and we describe the approach that we have taken to studying cheating at our own institutions using surveys and other evaluative processes.

Comparison of 5-Hour ENERGY and Caffeine on Cognitive Performance and Subjective Feelings in Young Men and Women

Background: Perhaps the most ubiquitous example of energy shots is the product known as 5-Hour ENERGY. With caffeine being the primary ingredient, it has been hypothesized that the claimed effects of this product are due in most part to the caffeine content, estimated to be ∼200 mg. Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of 5-Hour ENERGY to caffeine only, as well as to a placebo, on subjective feelings of energy and mood, objective measures of cognitive performance, heart rate, and blood pressure in men and women. Methods: Ten healthy men (Mage=22.7±1.1 years) and 10 healthy women (Mage=22.1±0.4 years) ingested either 5-Hour ENERGY, caffeine only (200 mg), or a placebo on three different days, separated by ∼1 week using a randomized design. Before and at 1, 3, and 5 h following ingestion of the assigned condition, subjects completed a subjective assessment of energy and mood, as well as tests of cognitive performance (Trail Making Test, Digit Symbol Substitution Test). Heart rate and blood pressure were measured. Results: Neither caffeine nor 5-Hour ENERGY resulted in an improvement in subjective feelings or in objective cognitive performance. Heart rate was not impacted by treatment, but blood pressure (diastolic in particular) was elevated (∼4–10 mmHg) with caffeine and 5-Hour ENERGY. Conclusion: These data indicate that in a controlled laboratory environment, subjective feelings and cognitive performance are not impacted by caffeine or 5-Hour ENERGY. Heart rate is unaffected by treatment, and blood pressure increases in a minor and similar manner with both 5-Hour ENERGY and caffeine.

Assessment of an Existing RC Building before and after Strengthening Using Nonlinear Static Procedure and Incremental Dynamic Analysis

Inadequate attention during design and construction of some of reinforced concrete (RC) buildings in Cyprus has raised questions about the performance level of these existing buildings under future earthquakes. This study aimed to assess the seismic structural response of a four story existing RC building. For this purpose, first, the weak structural elements (e.g.\ the not safety column-beam joints and weak columns) were detected using linear static procedure (LSP) analyses on the basis of Turkish earthquake code. Then, two different strengthening methods were examined. In the first method which is common in Cyprus, the existing building was strengthened based on LSP, using column jacketing to satisfy seismic code requirements to remove the weak elements. The second strengthening method was carried out using nonlinear static procedures (NSP) to achieve the basic safety objective (BSO) performance level described in FEMA 356. For existing and both strengthened structures, pushover curves were obtained and following FEMA 356, performance points were calculated and compared. The seismic responses of existing and strengthened buildings were also assessed using incremental dynamic analyses (IDA). Nonlinear dynamic time history analyses have been performed by using SDOF models of these buildings under action of different scales of 20 ground motion records. Then IDA curves for each earthquake have been constructed. Limit – states at each performance level have been defined and summarizing the multi – record IDA curves, 16%, 50% and 84% fractile curves were obtained. Since selected structure represents common existing buildings in Cyprus, probabilistic structural damage estimation fragility curves were also obtained in terms of peak ground acceleration (PGA) for each considered performance level. Results showed that the strengthening method based on the NSP to satisfy the BSO requirements is much more effective than the one based on the LSP to improve the building performance and to reduce the probability of exceeding of limit states IO, LS and CP at any seismic zone.

A Climate Treaty and the Norwegian Economy: A CGE Assessment

This paper examines the impact of an international climate treaty on a single country—Norway. A disaggregate computable general equilibrium (CGE) model is used. We discuss the treaty's effects on main macroeconomic indicators, economic growth, distributional impacts, the impact on pollutant emissions other than C02, and the secondary benefits of this reduction. The. results suggest that C02 emissions will decrease compared to the current level. The distributional impacts are modest. Increases in secondary benefits recoup almost one half of the loss in private consumption. We characterize the uncertainty of this estimate.

Gamma Knife Stereotactic Radiosurgery for Grade 2 Meningiomas

Purpose This study aims to report long-term clinical outcomes after Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) for intracranial grade 2 meningiomas. Methods In this Institutional Review Board approved study, we reviewed records of all patients with grade 2 meningiomas treated with GKRS between 1998 and 2014. Results A total of 97 postoperative histopathologically confirmed grade 2 meningiomas in 75 patients were treated and are included in this study. After a mean follow-up of 41 months, 28 meningiomas had local recurrence (29.79%). Median time to local recurrence was 89 months (mean: 69, range: 47–168). The 3- and 5-year actuarial local control (LC) rates were 68.9 and 55.7%, respectively. The 3- and 5-year overall survival rates were 88.6 and 81.1%, respectively. There was a trend toward worse LC with tumors treated with radiation doses ≤ 13 versus &gt; 13 Gy. There was no radiation necrosis or second malignant tumors noted in our series. Conclusion This report, one of the largest GKRS series for grade 2 meningiomas, demonstrates that GKRS is a safe and effective treatment modality for patients with grade 2 meningiomas with durable tumor control and minimal toxicity. Adjuvant GKRS could be considered as a reasonable treatment approach for patients with grade 2 meningiomas.

Non-Aqueous Based HPMC Transdermal Patch of Aceclofenac: In vitro characterization

Background: An effective substitution for conventional administration routes is transdermal medication delivery. The use of transdermal treatments to treat arthritis has increased significantly in recent years. There is a pressing need to develop a new aceclofenac transdermal medication delivery method. Objective: The current study intends to stop aceclofenac from degrading in an aqueous environment in an effort to increase the drug's stability and effectiveness when used therapeutically to treat arthritis. The goal of the current research is to create non-aqueous, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose-based transdermal patches for aceclofenac that will improve patient compliance, increase therapeutic efficacy, decrease gastrointestinal side effects, and prevent substantial first-pass metabolism. Method: By using a solvent evaporation approach, 18 different aceclofenac transdermal patch formulations, including HPMCK4M, HPMCK100M, and HPMCK15M, were created. The characterization of these prepared transdermal patches was done in vitro. Result: DSC thermograms concluded that there is no interaction between the API and excipients. The mass, weight variation, flatness, moisture content, moisture uptake, folding endurance, thickness, medication content, and swelling tests of these transdermal patches were all assessed. Good in-vitro physicochemical qualities could be seen in all of the improved formulations. The improved transdermal Patch (P13) was chosen for in-vivo investigations based on the findings. Conclusion: In order to increase the stability and effectiveness of aceclofenac during its therapeutic use for arthritis, it can therefore be reasonably inferred that it can be made into nonaqueous transdermal matrix type patches.
