Effect of proline-rich polypeptide on donor cells in graft-versus-host reaction.

The effect of a proline-rich polypeptide (PRP) isolated from early sheep colostrum on the graft-versus-host (GvH) reaction was studied. Unfractionated thymocytes, treated with PRP in vivo or in vitro, acquired the ability to elicit the GvH reaction. In fact PRP elicited GvH reactivity in cortisone-sensitive thymocytes and cortisone-sensitive thymocytes become cortisone-resistant after incubation with PRP. On the other hand, some of the cortisone-resistant thymocytes become cortisone-sensitive when treated with PRP and the ability to induce the GvH reaction was reduced.

A REVIEW ON NUTRITIONAL AND HEALTH BENEFITS OF SOYBEAN

Asia is the origin of soybean, a crop that is significant both economically and nutritionally. Soybeans are rich in folic acid and iso-flavonoids; used in healthy diets all over the world. Because of their possible positive effects on human health, dietary soy products are attracting more and more scientific attention. Protease inhibitors, isoflavones, proteins or peptides, and saponins are the significant soy components that demonstrate biological activity. Soybean and its constituents have anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-diabetic, and anti-proliferative qualities. The eating of these foods has been linked to a number of potential health benefits, including the prevention of immune system diseases, obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and certain types of cancer. Numerous studies have demonstrated that high-protein soy products contribute to cholesterol lowering. The topic of this review article is soybeans, their products, and their possible use in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of a range of chronic illnesses. Research on new bioactive components of soybeans that are beneficial to health may eventually lead to their use in pharmaceutical development and functional foods, which may eventually replace synthetic medications with a variety of negative side effects.

DYNAMICS OF PULMONARY VENTILATION INDICATORS IN ANNUAL CYCLE IN CHILDREN OF PRIMARY SCHOOL AGE, RESIDENTS OF THE EUROPEAN NORTH

During a year (in winter, spring, summer and autumn) the spirographic survey of one and the same group of healthy children (33 boys and 32 girls of primary school age, natives of the Arkhangelsk) was conducted. It has been detected that the increased utmost and reserve functional abilities of external respiration in children aged 8-9 years in the transition period from the warm season to the cold season (autumn) are observed. The increased minute pulmonary ventilation in the surveyed children is connected mostly with the increased respiratory volume rather than with respiration rate.

Productivity of multiple-branched horizontal wells

To make the function of multi-branched horizontal well productivity match with reality perfectly,in this paper,a threedimensional steady flow velocity potential function for a horizontal well with multiple-branched is derived under unbounded formation. Imaging and superposition principle are applied to derive three-dimensional steady flow velocity potential distribution for a horizontal well with multiple-branched under bounded formation.In 3D steady state potential distribution in a horizontal well from bottom water drive reservoirs,a new formula for calculating the productivity of multiple branched horizontal well is developed.The effects of the horizontal well position relative to water-oil contact and permeability anisotropy on productivity are considered.A modified factor of flow resistance is introduced into the formula.It makes the formula simpler and more practical.An example of calculation shows that the new formula is stricter and quicker and its results match well with practical data.

Kansei Analysis of Pattern Design

Patterns are exhibited via different media in our daily life. People can see patterns from clothes, bags, wallpapers and even the facade of architectures. Pattern design can beautify and characterize the products. Some patterns have become the representation of a brand, such as the checkered patterns on the products of Burberry. Designers create patterns by using units along with grid or frame systems. Hence, patterns can vary in thousands of visual forms and convey various images. People tend to evoke different emotions while perceiving different style of patterns. The main purpose of this study was set to figure out the relationships between pattern design and people’s Kansei evaluation. Kansei analysis was used in the study. A construction framework for patterns generation was defined and then, the test samples were created. 30 subjects were asked to estimate the 81 pattern samples with 6 Kansei adjectives which were picked out via KJ method. The 6 phrases are glorious, natural, classical, modest, rhythmic and joyful. 9- level Likert scale was adopted to record the evaluation. Then, the data were analyzed by Quantification Theory Type I. The results included a formula for pattern design to designers. Designers can follow the rules to create new patterns. We hope they can help designers to create patterns more effectively in products or graphic design. And consumers can also grasp the features of the products via the pattern style exhibited on the packaging easier.

Kernel of the Kernel, Concerning the Wayfaring and Spiritual Journey of the People of Intellect, A Shi`i Approach to Sufism

Kernel of the Kernel is a recension by Ayatullah Sayyid Muhammad HusyanHusayni Tihrani (d. 1995) of the oral teachings of Allamah MuhammadHusayn Tabatabai (d. 1982), one of the most prominent Iranian ‘ulama of thetwentieth century. The main text has chapters entitled “Kernel of the Kernel,”“Description of the Realms Preceding the Realm of Khulus,” “UndifferentiatedDescription of the Path and Methods of Wayfaring toward God,” and “Differentiated Description of the Path and Methods of Wayfaring towardGod.” Kernel of the Kernel concludes with a general index, an index ofQur’anic verses and ahadith, an index of the sayings of the Shi`i Imams, andan appendix of notes on saints and scholars cited in the text that contains briefbiographies of 37 people.The book consists of Allamah Tabatabai’s teachings, which are augmentedby an interesting commentary/introduction by the editor, AllamahTihrani. Its core part is further prefaced by the translator’s (Muhammad H.Faghfoory) introduction and informative notes on Allamah Tihrani’s life andwork. Seyyed Hossein Nasr’s foreword is the external shell that puts the text’sgeneral esoteric trajectory and the characters involved in composing it in context.Nasr’s foreword, the translator’s notes, and the editor’s introduction areinterspersed with teachings and stories of the lives of the Shi`i sages and scholarsof the past several centuries. This makes the text of interest to students ofSufi hagiography in general, and of Shi`i intellectual life in particular.Kernel of the Kernel is in the genre of the Shi`i tradition of explicatingthe stages of the spiritual path and the doctrinal foundations of wayfaring.Allamah Tihrani begins by discussing the complementary relationshipbetween Islam’s exoteric and esoteric aspects, and argues that the straightpath means combining both of these aspects. As much as contemplation,intellection, logic, reason, and rational argumentation are praised, it is bysubmitting the heart that inward witnessing is achieved. This complementaryrelationship is the book’s underlying theme. Thus, the discussions on“the spiritual traveler” and “immersion in the Divine essence of the Lord,”for example, are balanced with such topics as “the station of being presentin the world of multiplicity while simultaneously witnessing and experiencingthe realms of Divine Lordship.” The text follows with a descriptionof the inner meanings of Islam, faith, migration, spiritual struggle, submission,and ritual practices. At every step of the spiritual path, the authoraffirms the complementary nature of the relationship between wayfaring inthe spiritual realm and being in this world. The last chapter is a condenseddescription of the path and the methods of wayfaring ...

Vowel reduction and perceptual recovery in casual speech.

A pervasive characteristic of casual (normal conversation) English is the apparent deletion of unstressed vowels like the first vowel in the word ‘‘support.’’ One might suppose that if the first vowel in ‘‘support’’ were deleted, ‘‘support’’ would become homophonous with ‘‘sport.’’ Acoustic and physiological data are reported which suggest that in fact when speakers appear to be deleting an unstressed schwa, they are often actually omitting only the oral gestures for the vowel. The glottal gestures stay much as they are in careful speech and are tied to the remaining oral gestures much as they are in careful speech. Also reported are perceptual data which suggest that listeners are sensitive to the acoustic consequences of these residual patterns, and can use this information to distinguish between ‘‘sport’’ and reduced versions of ‘‘support’’ [see also J. Fokes and Z. S. Bond, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. Suppl. 1 85, S85 (1989); J. Fokes and Z. Bond, Proc. XII Int. Congr. Phon. Sci. 4, 58–61 (1991)]. These results will be discussed in terms of the more general issue of deletion and recovery of phonetic information. [Work supported by NSF.]

Quantification of retinal nerve fiber layer changes in optical coherence tomography images reveals differential progression of glaucomas

BACKGROUND: For monitoring the progression of glaucoma, a major cause of irreversible blindness, clinicians measure retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) changes in the eye. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Based on a clinical cohort of patients, we computed the temporal differences in the RNFL patterns in their glaucomatous eyes using optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. To gain insights into disease progression, we quantified the precise changes in the RNFL clock-hour sector phenotypes in each glaucomatous eye between the first and second clinical visits. CONCLUSION: Further, we identified 2 groups of patients using unsupervised clustering based only on their initial RNFL phenotypes, which may be investigated further to develop clinically useful models for prediction of glaucoma progression.

Introduction: Livelihood options for the poor in the changing environment

Abstract Environmental variability and climate change has become an enormous challenge of our time. Policy approaches to find sustainable strategies and interventions have become more and more important by the day. Whilst it is difficult to predict the current and future impacts of a phenomenon with such diverse impact streams, it is evident that the livelihood options of the poor and marginal societies in the global south are more likely to experience a significant shift. Again, their environment and the availability of the resources they depend on for their sustenance are predicted to be dwindling. This editorial seeks to bring together diverse approaches and experience from some of the different geographical regions in the global south identified to be most likely to be affected by environmental variability and to examine the various policy options that could facilitate the livelihood options of the poor, enhance their adaptation and reduce poverty.

Savings Groups, Risk Coping, and Financial Inclusion in Rural Areas

This paper evaluates the impact of the introduction of savings groups on poverty, vulnerability, and financial inclusion outcomes in rural Peru. Using a cluster randomized control trial and relying on both survey and administrative records, we investigate the impact of savings groups after more than two years of exposure. We find t hat savings groups channel expensive investments such as housing improvements and reduce households' vulnerability to idiosyncratic shocks, particularly among households in poorer districts. The treatment also induces changes in households labor allocation choices: access to savings groups increases female labor market participation and, in poorer areas, it fosters greater specialization in agricultural activities. Access to savings groups also leads to a four-percentage point increase in access to credit among women, mainly driven by access to the groups loans. However, the introduction of savings groups has no impact on the likelihood of using formal financial services.On the contrary, it discourages access to loans from formal financial institutions and microfinance lenders among the unbanked.

Herbal compound Teng‑Long‑Bu‑Zhong‑Tang inhibits metastasis in human RKO colon carcinoma

Metastasis is one of the primary obstacles to the successful treatment of colorectal cancer. Teng-Long-Bu-Zhong-Tang (TLBZT) is a modern Chinese herbal formula that may be useful in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer. The present study evaluated the effects of TLBZT on lung metastasis in human RKO colon carcinoma cells injected into mice via the tail vein. The results demonstrated that TLBZT inhibited the metastasis of human RKO colon carcinoma cells to the lungs. TLBZT downregulated the expression of LOX and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α. TLBZT also inhibited the expression of integrins αV and β3 and the phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase. These results indicate that TLBZT inhibits the lung metastasis of RKO colon carcinoma by regulating the expression of multiple genes. The results of the present study provide a new basis for the management of colorectal cancer metastasis using treatments derived from Chinese herbs.

GAMIFICATION PRACTICE WITHIN THE NEW HEDONIC CONSUMPTION PERSPECTIVE: INVESTIGATION OF THE PRODUCT CONSUMPTION EXPERIENCE IN THE DORITOS RISK # risevarmisin AD SERIES

Tüketici davranışlarını konu alan çalışmaların temel gayesi bireyin hangi motivasyon ile tüketim eylemini gerçekleştirdiğini anlamaktır. Tüketici davranışlarını anlamaya yönelik ilk çalışmalarda tüketme eyleminin bilişsel bir sürecin çıktısı olduğu kabul etmektedir. Lakin söz konusu ön kabul günümüz postmodern öznelerin tüketim pratiklerini açıklamak adına yetersiz kalmaktadır. Bu çerçevede rasyonel olmayan tüketim davranışlarını zevk ve haz merkezinde açıklaması ile hedonik tüketim kavramı popülerleşmiştir. Hedonik tüketim ile faydacı tüketim genellikle literatürde birbirine zıt ve birbirini yadsıyan tüketim edimleri olarak ele alınmaktadır. Ancak tüketimin araçsal bir eylemden ziyade amaçsal bir deneyim haline gelmesi sonucu hedonik ve faydacı değerler arasındaki ayrımı muğlaklaşmaktadır. Bu çerçevede Horiuchi (2003) Yeni Hedonik Tüketim Perspektifini (YHTP) geliştirmiş ve “zevk” kavramını yeniden konumlandırmıştır. Faydacı ve hedonik tüketimi bir model altında birleştirmeyi amaçlayan YHTP, zevk tanımını irdelemekte ve “rasyonel zevk” kavramını vurgulamaktadır. Söz konusu rasyonel zevk kapsamında ele alınabilecek ürün tüketim deneyimlerinden biri de postmodern pazarlama stratejileri arasında yer alan oyunlaştırmadır. Deneyim tüketiminin ön plana çıktığı ürün ve hizmet piyasasında oyunlaştırma, pazarlama karmasının her elemanında karşımıza çıkabilmektedir. Çalışma kapsamında ele alınan Doritos Risk ürününün “Doritos Risk #riskevarmısın” reklam serisinde vaat edilen oyunlaştırılmış tüketim deneyiminin bileşenleri içerik analizi yöntemi ile irdelenecek ve YHTP merkezinde ele alınacaktır.

Vaginal Laceration in an Open Pelvic Fracture Case Report: A Novel, Prophylactic Antibiotic Delivery Mechanism

Introduction. Rotational displaced pelvic ring injuries are associated with internal injuries to both the gastrointestinal and genitourinary viscera and anatomic structures. Vaginal lacerations and open genitourinary-associated injuries are at increased risk of mortality due to sepsis. Case Presentation. This case presents a 65-year-old female status post-pedestrian-vehicle struck diagnosed with an open pelvic fracture with extension into the outer one-third of the vaginal wall. The patient was successfully treated with emergent surgical debridement, pelvic stabilization, and internal placement of a novel combination of metronidazole antibiotic gel and vancomycin/tobramycin Polymethyl methacrylate beads. Conclusion. No evidence of infection was observed with the use of topical metronidazole-coated vancomycin/tobramycin Polymethyl methacrylate beads for contaminated open pelvic fracture injury involving the vaginal wall. Further research on antibiotic gels for use in high-risk open fractures is required.

Homoplasmic and exclusive ND4 gene mutation in Japanese pedigrees with Leber's disease.

Neither heteroplasmy of the ND4 11778 mutation nor simultaneous mutations reported in the different complex I genes can account for the variation in the clinical phenotype in our series. Taken together with the sex bias in symptom manifestation, the results indirectly suggest that an extramitochondrial factor, such as an X-chromosome-linked gene, possibly contributes to the development of optic atrophy in the Japanese LHON pedigrees tested.

STUDIES OF CONGENITALLY IMMUNOLOGICALLY MUTANT NEW ZEALAND MICE: VIII. CELL‐SURFACE PHENOTYPE OF SPLEEN CELLS OF <i>Xid</i> AND <i>NUDE</i> MICE

SUMMARY Surface immunoglobulin on spleen cells from NZB and NZB/W mice and congenic mice bearing the nude or X‐linked immune defective ( X id ) gene was examined by flow microfluorometry with regard to both the frequency of positive cells and density expressed on the cell. These data indicate that although the frequency of unseparated sIg + B lymphocytes is equivalent among all of these groups of mice, the densities of sIgM and sIgD are different. Spleen cells from these mice were also separated by free‐flow electrophoresis and analyzed in a similar manner. This analysis demonstrated the absence of a subpopulation of B lymphocytes with a low electrophoretic mobility and low expression of sIgM. These studies suggest that maturational and/or activation states of the B cells in mice bearing the X id or nude genes are different from those seen in the parent strains of mice. Such alterations in cell‐surface antigens correlate with differences in the natural history of immunopathology of the autoimmune disease in these congenic colonies of New Zealand mice.
