[New treatments for atopic dermatitis].

New treatments for atopic dermatitis Atopic dermatitis is one of the most common skin disorders in Sweden. The pathogenesis is a complex counterplay between a defect skin barrier and an abnormal immune response that can be caused by genetic and/or environmental factors. Atopic dermatitis has a huge negative impact on quality of life. New and more specific treatments are under way and hopefully we will, in the near future, better treat even the more severe cases of atopic dermatitis.

Evaluation of sustainable development in Europe: context and introduction

In this volume a glance at the current state of the art of evaluating sustainable development policies, programmes and projects (PPP) in Europe is presented. The aim is not to offer an encompassing overview of all the efforts undertaken in this respect, which even within the comparatively short historical time span of these activities would involve screening and analysing a rather sizeable volume of literature. The attempt made and reported here is rather to raise the most significant issues involved when an evaluation project is planned and carried out. The list of such issues to be considered is by no means complete, but only the result of analysing the contributions presented in this volume and the impression gained from the pertinent literature. In the Chapters to follow, these topics are discussed with varying intensity and emphasis depending on the specific focus of the individual contributions.&lt;br /&gt;This introductory chapter aims at providing context and a brief overview. In terms of broad categories of issues discussed these were identified as the concept of sustainable development (SD) itself and its operationalization and specification, the role of evaluation in the political processes involved, the referential frame (time, space and so on) as well as the methodological approaches to be considered.

A DirectFET based high-frequency fuel-cell inverter

In this paper, the design guideline for a high-power-density inverter for fuel-cell applications is presented. Such an inverter can lead to savings in volume and weight due to high-frequency operation. Also, we present a guideline to determine the optimal size of the input filter. It is also illustrated that, for such a topology, an optimal choice of transformer leakage inductance is necessary to achieve low power loss and to establish a balance between efficiency and reliability. Transient load condition, which may degrade fuel-cell-stack reliability, is handled through a battery-sourced energy-buffering unit. Experimental results demonstrating the nominal operations of inverter and energy buffering unit are presented.

Development of The New Regression Analysis Method Using Independent Component Analysis and Genetic Algorithm

本論文では、独立成分分析(ICA)を応用した新たな回帰分析手法を提案し、シンプルで予測精度の高いモデルの構築を目指す。本手法は、前処理として説明変数にICAを適用し独立成分を得た後、PLSにより独立成分と目的変数の間で回帰モデルを構築する手法である。この手法をICA-PLSと呼ぶ。さらに、遺伝的アルゴリズム(GA)を用いてQ2値が最大になるように独立成分を選択し回帰する手法(ICA-GAPLS)を提案する。ICAは、信号処理の分野などで用いられる手法である。複数の音声信号が混合された信号を、複数のセンサーで観測する状況でICAを適用することにより、混合される前の音声信号を精度良く復元することが可能となる。つまりICAとは、複数の説明変数を統計的に独立な成分に分解する手法である。このICAをPLSの前処理として用いることで、PLSと比較して予測精度が向上することがサンプルデータによって確認された。本手法の適用例として、1023個の化合物に関する水溶解度データの解析を行った。PLS、GAPLS、ICA-PLS、ICA-GAPLSを用いてモデルを構築し、それらのモデルの予測性を比較した。PLS、ICA-PLSはともに最適成分数が2であり、それぞれQ2値は0.821、0.854であった。Rpred2値はPLSで0.790、ICA-PLSで0.881となり、前処理としてICAを用いることにより、予測精度の向上が見られた。さらにICA-GAPLSによって得られたモデルの最適成分数は2であり、Rpred2値は0.889であった。ICA-PLSと比較して、より少ない数の独立成分で同程度の予測精度を持つモデルが構築された。

The Impact Of Customer Relationship Marketing On Customer Loyalty In Banking Industry, The Case Of Dashen Bank

The purpose of this study is to provide an insight into the impact of relationship marketing strategy on customer loyalty of retail banking industry particularly in Dashen bank and to examines whether these relationship strengthen through improvements in banking relationship. A questionnaire derived from previous studies. Multiple regression analysis assessed the impact on customer loyalty of four key construct of customer relationship marketing (Trust, Commitment, empathy and conflict handling). Results indicate that four variables have significant effect and predict good proportion of variance in customer loyalty.There are many different relationship marketing dimensions implemented for retaining customers. Therefore, this study is aimed to explore the impact of relationship marketing dimensions (trust, commitment, conflict handling, and empathy) on customer loyalty, by focusing on the Dashen bank. A theoretical framework was used as a guideline to test the relationships between relationship marketing dimensions and customer loyalty.A quantitative method which is cross-sectional study with deductive approach is chosen in this research. In order to collect primary data, a self-completed questionnaire is designed and was randomly given to the customers of Dashen bank. In addition to questionnaire, semi structured interview questions are prepared to get information from the organization which is analysed qualitatively.It is reasonable to conclude, on this evidence, that customer loyalty can be created, reinforced and retained by marketing plans aimed at building trust, demonstrating commitment to service ,have empathy on customers feelings and proactive fashion, and handling conflict efficiently. Furthermore, they are significantly related to one another. The relationship investigated in this study deserves further research. Because the data analyzed were collected from one sector of the service industry in one country, more studies are required before general conclusions can be drawn

Performance Characteristics of Cluster –Based Multicast Key Distribution Scheme for Mobile Adhoc Networks Volume 1 – No. 23

Many emerging commercial and military applications require secure multicast communication in adhoc environments. Secure multicast communication in mobile adhoc networks is challenging due to its inherent characteristics of infrastructureless architecture with lack of central authority, high packet loss rates and limited resources such as bandwidth, time and power. Hence key management is the fundamental challenge in achieving reliable secure communication using multicast key distribution for mobile adhoc networks. This paper proposes and evaluates the performance of an new cluster-based multicast tree algorithm with destination sequenced distance vector routing protocol to provide efficient and reliable multicast key distribution. Simulation results in NS2 accurately predict the performance of proposed scheme in terms of energy, latency, key delivery ratio and packet drop rate under varying network conditions. This proposed scheme achieves reliability, while exhibiting low packet loss rate with high key delivery ratio compared with the existing scheme.

Employing atomic force microscopy technique and X-ray diffraction analysis to examine nanostructure and phase of glass concrete

The effect of waste glass as fine aggregate in concrete mixes was investigated at nano-level by using atomic force microscopy (AFM) technique. In this technique, cantilever arm was operated in tapping mode on concrete samples to classify different phases such as CSH gel, un-hydrated cement particles and voids. The present study also examines the roughness at ITZ (interfacial transition zone) between aggregate and cement matrix. The images obtained through this technique showed dense formation of CSH gel with reduced roughness at 20% substitution level. In addition, hydration products were also studied by performing X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses which showed the enhanced formation of hydration products and ITZ at 20% replacement level.

Strong coupling constant from moments of quarkonium correlators revisited

We revisit previous determination of the strong coupling constant from moments of quarkonium correlators in (2+1)-flavor QCD. We use previously calculated moments obtained with Highly Improved Staggered Quark (HISQ) action for five different quark masses and several lattice spacings. We perform a careful continuum extrapolations of the moments and from the comparison of these to the perturbative result we determine the QCD Lambda parameter, $Λ_{\overline{MS}}^{n_f=3}=332 \pm 17 \pm 2(scale)$ MeV. This corresponds to $α_s^{n_f=5}(μ=M_Z)=0.1177(12)$.

[Anesthetic management of a patient with suspected pseudothrombocytopenia].

A 74-year-old male was operated for sigmoid colon cancer. Because of an agglutination of the patient's platelet, it was difficult to measure his platelet count under ethylene diamine tetra acetate (EDTA), heparin or citrate as anticoagulants with an automated cell counter. Even though there was a strong possibility of pseudothrombocytopenia, anesthetic management for the patient was safely conducted. His condition was stable throughout the perioperative course and no bleeding tendency was observed. Nitrous oxide, oxygen, sevoflurane, propofol and pancuronium were useful in this case.

The E2E Dataset: New Challenges For End-to-End Generation

This paper describes the E2E data, a new dataset for training end-to-end, data-driven natural language generation systems in the restaurant domain, which is ten times bigger than existing, frequently used datasets in this area. The E2E dataset poses new challenges: (1) its human reference texts show more lexical richness and syntactic variation, including discourse phenomena; (2) generating from this set requires content selection. As such, learning from this dataset promises more natural, varied and less template-like system utterances. We also establish a baseline on this dataset, which illustrates some of the difficulties associated with this data.

Epidemiology of Human Immunodeficiency Virus in the United States

SUMMARY The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic emerged in the early 1980s with HIV infection as a highly lethal disease among men who have sex with men and among frequent recipients of blood product transfusions. Advances in the treatment of HIV infection have resulted in a fundamental shift in its epidemiology, to a potentially chronic and manageable condition. However, challenges in the prevention of this infection remain. In particular, increasing evidence suggests that transmission of drug-resistant virus is becoming more common and that the epidemic is having a profound impact on morbidity and mortality in ethnic and racial minority subgroups in the United States. New population-based data collection systems designed to describe trends in behaviors associated with HIV transmission and better methods for measuring the true incidence of transmission will better elucidate the characteristics of HIV infection in the United States and inform future public health policies.

Product identity and its impact on discrete event observability

Sensing of the specific identity of products moving through the manufacturing supply chain is typically indirect. Usually, such information is inferred from local proximity data coupled with appropriate computer based tracking models which align this data to the last known point of identity recognition. So-called Automated Identification systems promise to address some of the limitations of these approaches by providing automated, ubiquitous, item level product identity information at any point in the supply chain. One interpretation of the impact of such a facility is in terms of the enhanced observability of the (discrete-event) state space which represents the production, storage, transportation and retail processes to which a product is subject during its life cycle. This paper examines this extended notion of observability and illustrates its impact on physical systems represented by such discrete event systems via a materials handling example. Practical implications for industrial control are also considered.

Non-rotation of Colon

This condition is not frequent. Smith1 found five in 1,050 autopsies. Its clinical importance is the possibilityof left-sided appendicitis and consequent non-recognition before rupture occurs. Mayo2 reported six cases of non-rotation discovered at operation. Kantor3, in a study of 4,000 cases, found non-rotation in 0·2 per cent. He stated there were no cases of partial rotation, and that in these eight cases the ileum entered the colon from the right. There are abnormities of the colon such as those of length or fixation in which the cecum may vary in position, being either higher or lower than normal, but these abnormities are not those of rotation. Ludington4 reported two cases.

3‐Iodo‐2‐Propynyl Butylcarbamate 55406‐53‐6

Iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC) is an internationally recognized chemical that has been used for years because of its wide field of application. Initially used as a water-based paint and wood preservative and then in metalworking fluids, its role has expanded into the more recent uses in cosmetic products. The need for a potent, broad-spectrum, and safe preservative system in cosmetics allowed for the discovery of several combinations of IPBC effective against a wide variety of organisms. Although IPBC has claimed to be safe when used at concentrations less than 0.1%, the introduction of IPBC into cosmetics has led to several reports labeling IPBC as a potential new contact allergen. As the use of this seemingly safe preservative becomes vast, an increased number of cases of IPBC-induced contact allergy is likely.

The Effect of Posttraumatic Stress and Trauma-Focused Disclosure on Experimental Pain Sensitivity Among Trauma-Exposed Women

Previous studies evaluating the impact of trauma history and PTSD on pain sensitivity yield inconsistent findings; the presence of trauma-related negative affective states may account for these discrepancies. Therefore, the proposed study aimed to evaluate the effect of trauma-related negative affect and PTSD symptoms on sensory and affective components of pain sensitivity among trauma-exposed women. Adult women (N = 87) with low and high PTSD symptoms underwent an emotional disclosure paradigm, during which they wrote about a traumatic event or a neutral topic. Participants then completed a pain induction procedure. Compared to women with low PTSD symptoms, women with high PTSD symptoms demonstrated increased time to pain detection (e.g., threshold) and ability to withstand pain (e.g., tolerance), as well as increased pain intensity and when accounting for relevant covariates. Women with high PTSD symptoms who wrote about their worst traumatic experience reported higher pain unpleasantness relative to women with high PTSD symptoms who wrote about the neutral topic and women with low PTSD symptoms who wrote about either topic. Results suggest that PTSD symptoms and trauma-related negative affect may facilitate alterations in pain sensitivity in trauma-exposed women, but this relationship is complex and requires further exploration.

Our findings indicate that a past or present history of allergic rhinitis and high serum IgE level are significant risk factors for childhood-onset persistent asthma, and that female sex and a history of smoking are risk factors for relapse of childhood-onset asthma. Fortunately, exposure to tobacco smoke is a controllable risk factor.

Catalog of first motion focal mechanisms 1981-1983; Volume 2

because the either the quality and/or quantity of first motions was not sufficient to control the nodal planes of the focal mechanism. COMPUTATIONS:The focal mechanism solutions for this catalog were computed interactively rather than by a program that produces automatic solutions.Tables 91,107, 125, 135, 150, 157 and 169shows the focal mechanism parameters for each of the geographic subdivisions of volume 2. The focal angles which are listed in this catalog and plotted on lower hemisphere focal sphere projections in figures 36-39, 41-45, 47-49, 51, 54, 56, 57, 59,and 61 were derived from the Earth model of Jeffreys and Bullen (1958).[41][42][43][44][45] 47, 49,[51][52][53][54][56][57] and 59,61 , ordered by event number (table 91), show the nodal plane configuration; the P, T, and B axes of the focal mechanism; and the the station data used.The size of the symbols on these focal sphere solutions depend on the source of the first motions.The large symbols denote long-period P phase first motions and the small symbols denote the short-period P phase first motions. DATA SOURCES:The first motion data were obtained from the following three sources: (l) The first motions determined by the on-site station analysts that are reported to the National Earthquake Information Center (NEIC) ; (2) first motions determined by U.S. Gelogical Syrvey personnel from seismograms of the World-Wide Standardized Seismograph Network (WWSSN); (3) first motions obtained from the Global Digital Seismograph Network (GDSN).Individual station data, ordered by distance from the event, are shown as tables 92-106, 108-124, 126-134,136-148, 149-156, 158-168 and 170. .The codes and locations for the stations used in these tables are listed in the abbreviation table (table 92), Presgrave,needham and Minsch (1985).These station data tables also show: distance in degrees; azimuth in degrees from the event to the station; dt/dA in seconds/degree; focal angles in degrees; and the quality,direction and source of the first motions.
