Some experiences of radar observation of cyclonic storms in the southern Bay of Bengal

From a study of eight cyclonic storms observed with the Cyclone Warning Radar, Madras from 1972 to 1977 an assessment of the information obtainable by radar on cyclones in the Indian seas is attempted.&#x0D; Storms in this part of the Bay may be divided broadly into two categories: (i) well developed ones exhibiting a distinct eye and other features generally associated with hurricanes and typhoons and (ii) immature ones which do not have well developed banding. The latter are difficult to track by radar though useful information can be obtained regarding their structure. Cyclones in the former category can usually be tracked from a range of about 300 to 350 km. Fixes in initial stages have to be co-ordinated very closely with satellite and synoptic evidence, and may have a wide margin of error. Usual radar predictors of storm motion such as echo concentration etc are not reliable for any individual storm. Extrapolation of radar track is usually successful except in cases of recurvature. Radar gives considerable operationally useful information on size and shape of the eye, areal extent of precipitation, location of sectors of intense precipitation and structure of clouds in different sectors. Shrinkage of the eye usually indicates intensification. Persistent changes in degree of organisation over long periods appear to be a sign of change in, storm intensity; changes with time in heights and intensities of individual clouds of the eyewall of a given storm appear correlated with storm intensity. Information on areal distribution of echoes can probably be used in realtime while issuing warnings.

South‐South dialogue

Since feminism is an ongoing process of practices and theorizing that unveils the complexity of the “subject” of feminism, in this essay I focus on Latin American genealogies and legacies. In the first part, I follow the anarchist, socialist and liberal roots of Latin American feminism. The 70s and 80s are marked by the processes of the radical left and repressive dictatorships. In the 90s we follow democratization with ONGisation, and what I call the de-centering of “illustrated” Latin American feminism and its process of multiethnic feminisms.

Fluvoxamine effectiveness in patients with various atrial fibrillations forms

Aim. To assess the effectiveness of depressive disorder (DD) treatment with fluvoxamine in patients with various forms of atrial fibrillation (AF), as well as to investigate fluvoxamine effects on AF clinical course. Material and methods. Group I included 51 patients with various forms of AF and DD, receiving fluvoxamine (50 mg once a day) for 6 months. Group II included 49 patients with AF and non-treated DD (comparison group). All participants received standard antiarrythmic therapy. At 6 months, the incidence of AF attacks and transition from tachycardic to normocardic AF, blood levels of fibrinogen, and depression severity (CES-D questionnaire) were assessed. Results. Three AF patients were withdrawn from fluvoxamine therapy at Week 1, due to adverse effects. In the other Group I patients (n=48), fluvoxamine reduced DD severity by 2,8 points on average (p&lt;0,01). Fluvoxamine treatment was also associated with reduced AF attack incidence in 48,3±9,3 % of the patients with paroxysmal and persistent AF (p&lt;0,01), and transition from tachycardic to normocardic AF in 47,4±11,5 % of the patients with permanent AF (p&lt;0,05). The beneficial clinical effect (reduced DD severity, decreased AF attack incidence, reduced fibrinogen levels) was maximal in patients with paroxysmal and persistent AF, and minimal in patients with permanent AF, possibly due to more advanced heart failure and more severe clinical course of the disease. Conclusion. An antidepressant fluvoxamine reduces DD severity in AF patients and improves the clinical course of various AF forms.

[Relationship between the structure and estroginic activity of bromine- and silyl-substitutes of estradiol].

Comparative study of the estrogen properties of 2- and 4-brom and silyl-substituted estradiol administered subcutaneously and orally was carried out on sexually immature female rats. In comparison with initial estrogen, estradiol, silyl-group (SiMe3) substituted in the 4th position diminished the estrogen activity after subcutaneous injection but improved it considerably when given orally. Introduction of silyl radical in the 2nd position or of bromine in the 2nd and 4th positions of the estradiol molecule led to practically complete loss of the estrogenic activity irrespective of the method of administration of these compounds.

Designing a Better Business School: Channelling Herbert Simon, Addressing the Critics, and Developing Actionable Knowledge for Professionalizing Managers

abstract Herbert Simon's 1967 article ‘The business school: a problem in organizational design’ anticipated many of the challenges business schools face today. Critics charge business schools with failing to realize their primary purpose, that is, to produce professional managers. This article revisits what Simon advocated with regard to a core feature of this professionalism, the production of essential management knowledge, and the process of educating people in applying it. With Simon as a guide, this article outlines educational and research interventions to help business schools realize their founding purpose. In doing so, it addresses the distinctive knowledge products that business school research can contribute to the management profession. This article also highlights the key role that evidence‐based management and the related practices of design science play in providing a more complete solution to the design problem Simon identified.

Feasibility study of mixed reality on education of design and planning students based on Bloom taxonomy

Head mounted display is considered useful for designing process. This research aims at investigating how the interactivity of functions and parts in mixed reality (MR) device can support the students' designing process and confirm the possibility of MR as sustainable technology. Students create 3D model using SketchUp, configure the scene in Unity, export Unity file to Visual Studio, build and deploy into MR, and confirm on the site. The result shows that although it is difficult for some students to operate MR, most of them could reach the manipulation and precision stage. MR also accelerates the prototyping of new design. It determines the feasibility of MR on design and planning education. At present, MR can only provide students with more realistic vision and basic operations but cannot significantly improve students' design. This research can be a reference for educators to support students in developing their design ideas.

Roel Meijer, (ed.), Global Salafism. Islam’s New Religious Movement

En juillet 2009, à l'Assemblée nationale, une Mission d'information sur la pratique du port du voile intégral sur le territoire national était initiée sous la présidence du député André Guérin.Elle aura auditionné deux cents personnes (universitaires, société civile, associatifs...) pour aboutir, le 26 janvier 2010, à un rapport qui préconise une loi d'interdiction de cette pratique dans l'espace public, à laquelle le Conseil d'État n'est pas favorable.Cette commission a mis au premier plan politico-médiatique une branche de l'islam traditionaliste généralement dénommée par le vocable «salafisme».À en juger par les contributions des personnes auditionnées dans le cadre de cette mission, on constate que les contours de cette mouvance protéiforme ne sont pas encore distinctement cernés (toutefois, voir les interventions de M. Doua et S. Amghar: http://www.assemblee-nationale.fr/13/rap-info/i2262.asp).Or, quelques mois après l'ouverture de cette mission paraissait en anglais un ouvrage qui représente la première tentative académique collective pour définir cette mouvance dans la pluralité théologique, juridique et politique de ses expressions transnationales.Global Salafism est une contribution très ambitieuse au champ de l'islamologie en particulier et de l'anthropologie des religions globalisées en général, tiré d'une conférence qui s'est déroulée du 28 au 30 septembre 2007 à l'Université Radboud de Nimègue (Pays-Bas) sous l'égide du regretté International Institute for the Study of Islam in the Modern World de Leyde (qui a fermé ses portes en 2008 après dix ans d'intense activité).Signe du caractère brûlant de la thématique, un essaim de représentants des renseignements

Expert comments on “Acute limb ischemia secondary to popliteal artery thrombosis following total knee arthroplasty – Limb salvage by endovascular therapy”

Authors describe a single case report of endovascular therapy for acute limb ischemia secondary to popliteal artery thrombosis.[1] Authors should be complemented for the technical success. Injuries to popliteal artery while not uncommon will carry devastating consequences if unattended. I have a few comments to be considered by the authors. Managing a class 2B ischemia will need a team-based approach. While one can understand the limitations of a health system, it would still be appropriate for this patient to have been cared at a higher level of care where all the resources are available for the best possible outcome for the patient. Authors make an argument for lack of resources as the reason to choose the endovascular therapy; however, if one were to consider the described angiographic findings, there is a likely possibility of an embolic event that may have occurred during the procedure. Recorded slow flow as well as enclosed angiographic images attest to the fact that there was likely distal embolization. I would also caution one regarding "Dottering the lesion" in an acute thrombotic lesion as described here, as there is a significant possibility of one having an embolic complication. I did not see any comments from the authors about the possibility of compartment syndrome as I suspect that the patient likely had this complication due to foot drop being mentioned in the manuscript. While authors have a limb salvage (with foot drop), this should not be considered as an alternative and should not be a standard of care unless resources exist to manage immediate complications resulting from endovascular therapy.

DOI: 10.1093/hmg/ddg261 R145–R152 Genomic microarrays in human genetic disease and cancer

Alterations in the genome that lead to changes in DNA sequence copy number are a characteristic of solid tumors and are found in association with developmental abnormalities and/or mental retardation. Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) can be used to detect and map these changes. Recent improvements in the resolution and sensitivity of CGH have been possible through implementation of microarray-based CGH (array CGH). Here we discuss the performance characteristics of different array platforms and review some of the recent applications of array CGH in cancer and medical genetics.

Memories lost: A history of accounting records as forms of projection

This paper develops a theoretical history of the intricate relationship between accounting as a recording technology and memory, arguing that accounting's influence extends beyond mere financial documentation to shape human memory and projections into the past and the future. Drawing on Stiegler's theory of transindividuation, understood as the trans-formation of individuals, groups and technologies, and his emphasis on technology-mediated memory, we propose that varying types of accounting records cultivate different memory forms by fostering spatiotemporal projections which reshape the societal perception and comprehension of accounting. Our analysis relies on a comparison between two decentralized transaction recording systems similar in their operations, but which emerged in two different eras: blockchain and early double-entry bookkeeping. Our approach draws from Haydu (1998) to identify similarities and contrasts between different periods which can emphasize the uniqueness of each, while conceptualizing long-term trends. By juxtaposing DEB and BC as instances of decentralized records, the study postulates a critical shift in accounting's transindividuation over time. We argue that while DEB's norms of recording aided in the formation of collective memory and long-term projections, turning records into objects of social investment, BC's recording, propelled by automation and an economic emphasis, manifests as an isolated numerical sequence hindering the scope of human projections. We posit that compared to early DEB, BC recording, although it holds the potential for democratization, may lead to divisions between users, among themselves, and with their records. We discuss the potential implications of this trans-dividuation process for notions of accountability, transparency, regulation, and the broader political role of accounting in society.

Polyphase induction motors

It has been shown in chapter 1 that the polyphase induction motor can be considered as a polyphase transformer with variable frequency in the short-circuited secondary winding and an equivalent circuit can be derived per phase of the motor in the same general way as that of a transformer. It is apparent that each winding will have resistance and leakage inductance. The leakage reactance of the rotor will, however, be dependent on the frequency of the rotor current and, since the rotor frequency is Sf, the slip frequency, where S=(N S −N)/N S is the slip and f is the supply frequency, the rotor leakage reactance is given by SX2 where X2 is the standstill value of the rotor leakage reactance. Thus an equivalent circuit for the rotor can be drawn as shown in Fig. 5.1.

Influence of Hematocrit and Total-Spot Volume on Performance Characteristics of Dried Blood Spots for Newborn Screening

Dried blood spots (DBS) have been used in newborn screening (NBS) tests for over 50 years. The Newborn Screening Quality Assurance Program (NSQAP) at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) conducted studies to assess the individual impacts of hematocrit and total-spot volume on characteristics of DBS samples. Per-punch serum volumes decreased 27%, RBC volumes more than doubled, absorption times increased over 300%, and spot diameters decreased marginally between the hematocrits of 40% to 65%. Per-punch serum and RBC volumes decreased logarithmically with lowering total-spot volumes. Patient hematocrit is an uncontrollable variable and inevitably affects the resulting punch from a DBS sample. It may be possible, though, to identify samples that fall outside of an acceptable range by noting certain physical characteristics of the DBS.

Laser Doppler for Accurate Diagnosis of Oehler’s Type III Dens Invaginatus: A Case Report

In vital pulp therapy, pulp testing aids in the differential diagnosis and influences the treatment plan. Different from previous doppler flowmetry studies that only recorded waves and data, we report the first time, the use of a laser doppler blood flow monitor and imager with a colored image to present pulp vitality information in the dental field. We report here a case of Oehlers type IIIa dens invaginatus of the right upper lateral incisor in a 31-year-old girl, with the opening of the invagination near CDJ and a peri-invagination lesion sized 8 × 9 mm2. Cone beam computed tomography was used to verify specific spatial and stereoscopic data. After removing the source of infection, mineral trioxide aggregate was selected to fill the invagination. Laser doppler was scheduled for further assessment. After three years of regular follow-up, the patient’s clinical condition improved, the peri-invagination lesion healed, and the laser doppler and electric pulp test both showed a positive reaction. Laser doppler has successfully improved the diagnostic accuracy Thus, unnecessary interventions can be avoided while reducing the treatment time by preserving the vitality. However, further work is needed to resolve the limitations of laser doppler.

Health literacy: New developments and research

AbstractA substantial body of literature in public health and medical journals indicates that illness and premature death may be the result of a mismatch between the demands of health information and care systems and the literacy skills of vulnerable population groups. This paper offers an overview of published research to highlight new developments in the field of health literacy — an area of inquiry focused on the links between health outcomes and literacy skills. This overview focuses on literacy-related issues in the clinical encounter. Of particular importance to the clinical encounter are three literacy skills not fully examined in earlier publications: speaking, listening and calculating. The discussion highlights new areas of study such as examinations of the oral exchange, numeracy challenges and the literacy environment of health settings that are garnering interest among researchers and practitioners. The review includes attention to lessons learned gleaned from a variety of studies, mostly focused on chronic disease management, which are yielding best practice guidelines.Keywords: HEALTH COMMUNICATIONHEALTH LITERACYNUMERACYDOCTOR–PATIENT COMMUNICATION

[Role of sodium-calcium exchanger in the myocardial protection against ischemia-reperfusion injury].

Present study was aimed at investigation into the role of sodium-calcium exchanger (NCX) in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and ischemic preconditioning (IPC). Experiments were performed in vivo rat model of regional myocardial ischemia-reperfusion. It was shown that inhibition of reverse mode of NCX with selective blocker KB-R7943 at a dose of 10 mg/kg resulted in significant decrease in occurrence and severity of ischemic ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Furthermore, administration of KB-R7943 caused potentiation of the antiarrhythmic effect exerted by single episode of IPC. However, KB-R7943 exerted no effect on myocardial infarction size nor affected infarction size limitation by IPC. In conclusion, inhibition of reverse mode of NCX conferred significant antiarrhythmic effect against ischemic rhythm disorders but it was ineffective in terms of infarction size limitation.

Magnon Bose condensation in a symmetry breaking magnetic field

Magnon Bose condensation (BC)in the symmetry breaking magnetic field is a result of unusual form of the Zeeman energy, which has terms linear in the spin-wave operators and terms mixing excitations differ in the Wave-vector of the magnetic structure. The following examples are considered: simple easy-plane tetragonal antiferromagnets (AF), frustrated AF family$R_2Cu O_4$ where $R=Pr,Nd$ etc. and cubic magnets with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction ($Mn Si$ etc.). In all cases the BC becomes important when the magnetic field becomes comparable with the spin-wave gap. The theory is illustrated by existing experimental results.
