The Implementation of a Performance Management System in the Italian Army
Venue: DSS 2012
Year: 2011

The last reform program in the Italian public sector was realized by legislative decree 150/2009 that introduced the performance cycle, to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the public organizations. The performance and its evaluation is one of new public management (NPM) pillars  Control and accountability play an invaluable role in the institutional and organizational change  The Italian Army is involved in this changing process, as well as the other public organizations, by implementing a performance management system (PMS) in order "to do more with less"  By now, the army is in the middle of this process, several steps have been made, but furthers and more critics are going to be done to implement an effective Decision Support System (DSS) This article aims to respond to the following question: How is the Italian Army implementing PMS and what is its impact on the organization?
Hyaluronic acid functionalized nanoparticles loaded with IR780 and DOX for cancer chemo photothermal therapy
Venue: European journal of pharmaceutics and biopharmaceutics official journal of Arbeitsgemeinschaft fur Pharmazeutische Verfahrenstechnik e.V
Year: 2019

&NA; IR780 is a near infrared (NIR) dye with a huge potential to be applied in cancer phototherapy and imaging. However, IR780 poor water solubility and acute cytotoxicity limit its direct use in cancer theragnostic. Herein, a novel Hyaluronic acid (HA) based amphiphilic polymer was used, for the first time, in the preparation of polymeric nanoparticles (HPN) encapsulating IR780 aimed to be applied in breast cancer therapy. Furthermore, HPN co encapsulating IR780 and Doxorubicin (DOX) were also produced in order to further enhance the therapeutic effectiveness of this nanoformulation. The results revealed that HPN were able to successfully encapsulate IR780 (IR HPN) and the IR780 DOX combination (IR/DOX HPN) Furthermore, the encapsulation of IR780 in HPN improved its absorption at 808 nm by about 2.2 fold, thereby enhancing its photothermal potential, as well as its cytocompatibility. The 2D in vitro cell uptake studies demonstrated that the nanostructures displayed a higher internalization by breast cancer cells than by normal cells. In addition, the assays performed in 3D in vitro models of breast cancer revealed that HPN can penetrate into spheroids. Furthermore, the 3D in vitro studies also demonstrated that the combined application of IR HPN and NIR light was unable to induce cytotoxicity on spheroids. In contrast, IR/DOX HPN produced a decrease on spheroids cells' viability, and their combination with NIR light induced an even stronger therapeutic effect, thus revealing the potential of these nanoparticles for cancer chemo phototherapy.

The Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative: Progress report and future plans
Venue: Alzheimer's Dementia
Year: 2010

The Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) beginning in October 2004, is a 6 year research project that studies changes of cognition, function, brain structure and function, and biomarkers in elderly controls, subjects with mild cognitive impairment, and subjects with Alzheimer's disease (AD) A major goal is to determine and validate MRI, PET images, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)/blood biomarkers as predictors and outcomes for use in clinical trials of AD treatments. Structural MRI, FDG PET, C 11 Pittsburgh compound B (PIB) PET, CSF measurements of amyloid b (Ab) and species of tau, with clinical/cognitive measurements were performed on elderly controls, subjects with mild cognitive impairment, and subjects with AD. Structural MRI shows high rates of brain atrophy, and has high statistical power for determining treatment effects. FDG PET, C 11 Pittsburgh compound B PET, and CSF measurements of Ab and tau were significant predictors of cognitive decline and brain atrophy. All data are available at UCLA/LONI/ADNI, without embargo. ADNI like projects started in Australia, Europe, Japan, and Korea. ADNI provides significant new information concerning the progression of AD.
Automatization of Universal Cellular Automaton Discoveries: A New Approach to Stream Duplication
Venue: Complex Syst.
Year: 2020

A crucial step toward an automatization of the demonstration of the universality of cellular automata is studied here. Inspired by Conway's work on the universality of the Game of Life, we propose a new approach of the duplication of streams of information in two dimensional cellular automata. This approach is based on specific collisions of streams and is illustrated with the example of an automaton that is already able to simulate logical gates. This duplication system could be used with new automata for the simulation of a Turing machine.

Clinical characteristics of coronary artery disease in adults with congenital heart defects.
Venue: International journal of cardiology
Year: 2013

There are now more adults with congenital heart disease than children. This aging cohort is at risk for acquired heart diseases such as coronary artery disease (CAD) The purpose of the study was to examine the clinical features of the CAD in adults with congenital heart disease.  A retrospective chart review was performed. The clinical characteristics of adults with congenital heart disease and angiographically confirmed atherosclerotic CAD were examined.  One hundred and forty one adults with CAD (69% male) were identified from a total of 12,124 patients (1% seen in our congenital cardiac clinic. The most common cardiac diagnoses were atrial septal defect, bicuspid aortic valve disease, tetralogy of Fallot and coarctation of the aorta. We identified 7 adults with Eisenmenger physiology and CAD. The mean age of diagnosis of CAD was 56 13years. Twenty patients had premature CAD (14% presenting before age 40years. Traditional risk factors of patients with CAD were common and were present in the majority (82% of patients. While many adults had symptoms of angina or myocardial infarction, a significant proportion (38% were asymptomatic. The age at diagnosis in patients with coarctation of the aorta was younger than other subgroups (48+ 13years) Seventy seven percent (109/141) underwent percutaneous or surgical coronary interventions.  Atherosclerotic coronary artery disease may coexist with congenital heart disease. Coronary artery disease in adults with congenital heart disease typically occurs later in adulthood and in patients with traditional cardiovascular risk factors. This study highlights the need for cardiovascular risk factor screening and therapy when indicated.
Chases and escapes by Paul J. Nahin
Venue: SIGA
Year: 2009

A Coriolis flowmeter is operated to generate accurate output material flow information over a wide temperature range that includes cryogenic temperatures. Heretofore, temperature compensation was provided using linear expressions that erroneously assumed the value of Young's Modulus E varied linearly with temperature. This resulted in unacceptable output information errors. The Coriolis flowmeter of the present invention uses non linear compensation information stored in memory to generate accurate non linear temperature compensated material flow output information at all temperatures including cryogenic temperatures. In one embodiment, the stored non linear information represents measured values of Young's Modulus E that are used to generate accurate temperature compensated material flow output information. In another embodiment, the measured values of Young's Modulus E are curve fitted to derive non linear expressions that are stored for use in generating the accurate non linear temperature compensated output information.
A Review of Insider Threat Detection: Classification, Machine Learning Techniques, Datasets, Open Challenges, and Recommendations
Venue: Applied Sciences
Year: 2020

Insider threat has become a widely accepted issue and one of the major challenges in cybersecurity. This phenomenon indicates that threats require special detection systems, methods, and tools, which entail the ability to facilitate accurate and fast detection of a malicious insider. Several studies on insider threat detection and related areas in dealing with this issue have been proposed. Various studies aimed to deepen the conceptual understanding of insider threats. However, there are many limitations, such as a lack of real cases, biases in making conclusions, which are a major concern and remain unclear, and the lack of a study that surveys insider threats from many different perspectives and focuses on the theoretical, technical, and statistical aspects of insider threats. The survey aims to present a taxonomy of contemporary insider types, access, level, motivation, insider profiling, effect security property, and methods used by attackers to conduct attacks and a review of notable recent works on insider threat detection, which covers the analyzed behaviors, machine learning techniques, dataset, detection methodology, and evaluation metrics. Several real cases of insider threats have been analyzed to provide statistical information about insiders. In addition, this survey highlights the challenges faced by other researchers and provides recommendations to minimize obstacles.

The Behavior of Thrust Washer Bearings Considering Mixed Lubrication and Asperity Contact
Year: 2006

The behavior and life of a tilted flat thrust washer bearing is modeled by a comprehensive numerical code. The goal is to investigate the conditions that distress thrust washer bearings through numerical techniques. The thrust washer bearing supports non axisymmetric loads within the planetary gear sets of automatic transmissions and consists of flat faced washers placed between an idle helical gear and its contacting face. Because of non axisymmetric loading, the gears and washers tilt in relation to the carrier, forming a converging gap that may produce hydrodynamic lift. Various coupled numerical schemes model sliding friction, boundary lubrication, asperity contact, thermo viscous effects, and full film lubrication. The model provides predictions of frictional torque, bearing temperature, hydrodynamic lift, and other indicators of bearing performance. The results show that the bearing operates in the regimes of boundary lubrication, mixed lubrication, and full film lubrication, and that the bearing can distress at high loads and speeds.

Myofibrillar and Mitochondrial Protein Synthesis Rates Do Not Differ in Young Men Following the Ingestion of Carbohydrate with Milk Protein, Whey, or Micellar Casein after Concurrent Resistance and Endurance Type Exercise
Venue: The Journal of nutrition
Year: 2019

Whey and micellar casein are high quality dairy proteins that can stimulate postprandial muscle protein synthesis rates. How whey and casein compare with milk protein in their capacity to stimulate postprandial myofibrillar (MyoPS) and mitochondrial (MitoPS) protein synthesis rates during postexercise recovery is currently unknown.  The objective of this study was to compare postprandial MyoPS and MitoPS rates after protein carbohydrate co ingestion with milk protein, whey, or micellar casein during recovery from a single bout of concurrent resistance and endurance type exercise in young healthy men.  In a randomized, double blind, parallel group design, 48 healthy, young, recreationally active men (mean SEM age: 23 0.3 y) received a primed continuous infusion of L [ring 13C6] phenylalanine and L [ring 3,5 2H2] tyrosine and ingested 45 g carbohydrate with 0 g protein (CHO) 20 g milk protein (MILK) 20 g whey protein (WHEY) or 20 g micellar casein protein (CASEIN) after a sequential bout of resistance and endurance type exercise (i.e. concurrent exercise) Blood and muscle biopsies were collected over 360 min during recovery from exercise to assess MyoPS and MitoPS rates and signaling through mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) Results Despite temporal differences in postprandial plasma leucine concentrations between treatments (P 0.001) MyoPS rates over 360 min of recovery did not differ between treatments (CHO: 0.049% 0.003%/h; MILK: 0.059% 0.003%/h; WHEY: 0.054% 0.002%/h; CASEIN: 0.059% 0.005%/h; P 0.11) When MILK, WHEY, and CASEIN were pooled into a single group (PROTEIN) protein co ingestion resulted in greater MyoPS rates compared with CHO (PROTEIN: 0.057% 0.002%/h; CHO: 0.049% 0.003%/h; P 0.04) MitoPS rates and signaling through the mTORC1 pathway were similar between treatments.  and MitoPS rates do not differ after co ingestion of either milk protein, whey protein, or micellar casein protein with carbohydrate during recovery from a single bout of concurrent resistance and endurance type exercise in recreationally active young men. Co ingestion of protein with carbohydrate results in greater MyoPS, but not MitoPS rates, when compared with the ingestion of carbohydrate only during recovery from concurrent exercise.
Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting Using Recurrent Neural Networks
Venue: 2019 IEEE 16th International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging (ISBI 2019)
Year: 2019

Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) is a new approach to quantitative magnetic resonance imaging that allows simultaneous measurement of multiple tissue properties in a single, time efficient acquisition. Standard MRF reconstructs parametric maps using dictionary matching and requires high computational time. We propose to perform MRF map reconstruction using a recurrent neural network, which exploits the time dependent information of the MRF signal evolution. We evaluate our method on multiparametric synthetic signals and compare it to existing MRF map reconstruction approaches, including those based on neural networks. Our method achieves state of the art estimates of T1 and T2 values. In addition, the reconstruction time is reduced compared to dictionary matching based approach.

Year: 2020

Since electronic business is ending up being well known reliably, the amount of customer analysis that things get increases at a faster rate considering the way that the web has gotten conventional in each home. For standard things, overviews can show up at an enormous number of people. For producers, there are additional issues considering the way that various broker destinations may sell comparable things and generally creators will make various things. We intend to abbreviate all reviews of things that customers get. Condensing objective,fuses including little anyway unequivocal nuances, for instance, features, points and words that portray the thing. Right now, work is one of a kind according to standard substance overviews since we are simply motivated by the specific pieces of things that customers have commented. Besides, we similarly separate nuances, for instance, positive or negative comments. This assessment will allow producers to adjust things and dispatch new things with better buying possibilities. We don't condense suppositions by picking or making a subset out of the principal sentences from reviews to get the focal issues as in the extraordinary substance outline. Our rule place is to inspect the evaluations of the thing incorporates that the expert has commented on. There are various frameworks to present such features. At the present time, plan to tunnel and abbreviate all customer reviews of the thing. We proposed to develop a mutt approach that will allow creators to utilize the studies and appraisal sof the customer and help in analyzing and improving the thing. We will use unmistakable evaluative assessments, for instance, precision, audit,f measure to perceive the key document parameters and capability of our system.

Beneficial effects on host energy metabolism of short chain fatty acids and vitamins produced by commensal and probiotic bacteria
Venue: Microbial Cell Factories
Year: 2017

The aim of this review is to summarize the effect in host energy metabolism of the production of B group vitamins and short chain fatty acids (SCFA) by commensal, food grade and probiotic bacteria, which are also actors of the mammalian nutrition. The mechanisms of how these microbial end products, produced by these bacterial strains, act on energy metabolism will be discussed. We will show that these vitamins and SCFA producing bacteria could be used as tools to recover energy intakes by either optimizing ATP production from foods or by the fermentation of certain fibers in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) Original data are also presented in this work where SCFA (acetate, butyrate and propionate) and B group vitamins (riboflavin, folate and thiamine) production was determined for selected probiotic bacteria.
