Nursing diagnoses and construct validity of pain, self-care deficit and impaired mobility

Construct validity of the concepts of pain, self-care deficit and impaired mobility was examined in a study of 120 medical-surgical patients. Factors derived from a factor analysis of the empirical signs and symptoms were: pain-factor and self-care deficit/impaired mobility-factor. The pain-factor clearly showed discriminant validity by differentiating between those with and without Clinical Nurse Specialist (CNS)-identified diagnosis of pain. An overlap between the defining characteristics of the diagnoses of self-care deficit and impaired mobility has been suggested in the present sample of patients. Limitations of the study and recommendations for further research are described.     

Statistical computer-aided design for microwave circuits

A useful methodology for microwave circuit design is presented. A statistical technique known as Design of Experiments is used in conjunction with computer-aided design (CAD) tools to obtain simple mathematical expressions for circuit responses. The response models can then be used to quantify response trade-offs, optimize designs, and minimize circuit variations. The use of this methodology puts the designer's intelligence back into design optimization while making “designing for circuit manufacturability” a more systematic and straightforward process. The method improves the design process, circuit performance, and manufacturability. Two design examples are presented in context to the new design methodology

Substrate-connected high voltage pumping circuits for low supplyvoltages

Novel high voltage pumping circuits for low supply voltages are proposed. Utilising a small pumping circuit and the new substrate-connected techniques can enhance charge transfer efficiency and eliminate the body effect at low supply voltages. Furthermore, a diode-connected transistor technique can improve the reverse charge sharing phenomenon when the output has a load current. With this technique high boosted voltages can be obtained at low supply voltages

Highly compact AC-AC converter achieving a high voltage transferratio

This paper reports a new, highly integrated modular design approach for pulsewidth-modulation AC-AC converters based on a modular phase-bank structure. Novel high-power 3-in-1 integrated bi-directional power modules (IBPM) rated at 1200-V AC and 150 A and the 3-to-1 phase bank circuits have been successfully developed, fabricated and tested. This enables the modularity design of the multiphase converter systems and reduces the critical parasitic inductance. A theoretical analysis of the IBPM's silicon utilization for this new breed of direct power converters has been outlined. A lab prototype at medium power level has been successfully designed, implemented, and tested with good results. A nearly 460-VRMS out voltage at a 1:0.955 voltage transfer ratio, which, perhaps, is the highest performance reported so far in the literature, has been achieved by the novel two-side modulation control system. The converter-fed AC motor system is able to operate over the 0-240 Hz range with inherent regenerative capability and four-quadrant operation. Potential industrial applications are also briefly highlighted in this paper     

Molecular cloning and nucleotide sequencing of a novel aminoglycoside 6'-N-acetyltransferase gene from an R-plasmid of Salmonella typhimurium S24 isolated in Taiwan

A conjugative aminoglycoside resistance plasmid pST2 has been isolated from Escherichia coli K-12 14R525, which was mated with a clinical isolate of Salmonella typhimurium S24. A novel resistance gene of aminoglycoside 6'-N-acetyltransferase[AAC(6')] was cloned from plasmid pST2 on a 1,393 kilobase (kb) of SphI-SalI fragment into vector pACYC184 and pUC18. This novel AAC(6') gene in plasmid pST2 acetylated kanamycin, amikacin, dibekacin, tobramycin, gentamicin, netilmicin, and sisomicin. The complete nucleotide sequence of the novel AAC(6') gene and its neighboring sequences were also determined. Minicell experiments detected only one protein of 24.7 kilodaltons (kDa) translated from an open reading frame of the 618 base pairs (bp) gene.
