One-stage sternal stenting with homograft bone after cardiac operation in pediatric patients

Low cardiac output after open heart operations in neonates and infants carries a high mortality. Delayed sternal closure may be life-saving but may prolong hospital stay and increase costs. To circumvent these issues, we shaped homograft bone and interposed it between the sternal edges to allow primary wound closure in 2 pediatric patients. Midterm results are satisfactory.     

Sequencing of two alternatively spliced mRNAs corresponding to the extracellular domain of the rat receptor for advanced glycosylation end products (RAGE)

The phosphorylation of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate, catalyzed by hexokinase, is the first committed step in glucose uptake into skeletal muscle. Two isoforms of hexokinase, HKI and HKII, are expressed in human skeletal muscle, but only HKII expression is regulated by insulin. HKII messenger RNA, protein, and activity are increased after 4 h of insulin infusion; however, glucose uptake is stimulated much more rapidly, occurring within minutes. Studies in rat muscle suggest that changes in the subcellular distribution of HKII may be an important regulatory factor for glucose uptake. The present studies were undertaken to determine if insulin causes an acute redistribution of HKII activity in human skeletal muscle in vivo. Muscle biopsies (vastus lateralis muscle) were performed before and at the end of 30 min insulin infusion, performed using the euglycemic clamp technique. Muscle biopsies were subfractionated into soluble and particulate fractions to determine if insulin acutely changes the subcellular distribution of HKII. Insulin decreased HKII activity in the soluble fraction from 2.20 +/- 0.31 to 1.40 +/- 0.18 pmoles/(min[chempt]micrograms) and increased HKII activity in the particulate fraction from 3.02 +/- 0.46 to 3.45 +/- 0.46 pmoles/(min[chempt]micrograms) (P < 0.01 for both). These changes in HKII activity were correlated with changes in HKII protein, as determined by immunoblot analysis (r = 0.53, P = 0.05). Insulin had no effect on the subcellular distribution of HKII activity, which was primarily restricted to the soluble fraction. These studies are consistent with the conclusion that, in vivo in human skeletal muscle, insulin changes the subcellular distribution of HKII within 30 min.

Hybrid integrator backstepping control of robotic manipulators driven by brushless DC motors

In this paper, a hybrid integrator backstepping controller is proposed for robotic manipulators actuated with brushless DC motors in the presence of arbitrary uncertain inertia parameters of the manipulator and the electrical parameters of the actuators. The main features are: 1) the design, requiring at most the joint velocities and stator currents feedback; 2) the semiglobal asymptotic stability of the controller being established in the Lyapunov sense; and 3) suitability of the scheme for multijoint robots. Simulation results are included to demonstrate the tracking performance.

IRS-P6 LISS-3和Landsat-5 TM两种多光谱传感器影像数据的对比分析

随着载有各种新型传感器的卫星相继发射升空,不同传感器之间的相互比较成了一个研究热点。首先从传感器的轨道特征、光谱范围等方面对IRS-P6 LISS-3和Landsat-5 TM进行了机理方面的对比分析,选取3对同日过空的遥感影像,研究了IRS-P6 LISS-3和Landsat-5 TM遥感数据在可见光-近红外、短红外各对应光谱波段之间的关系,建立TM和LISS-3各波段之间的相互转换公式,与Chander等提出的转换公式进行对比分析。结果表明:实际TM和模拟TM多光谱数据之间具有较强的相关关系,决定系数R²均大于0.97;模拟TM与实际TM的水体指数(MNDWI)和归一化植被指数(NDVI)空间散点分布和实际LISS-3与实际TM的空间散点分布相比,具有更强的相关关系,其决定系数R²有一定提高,散点分布趋于对称。因此,所求的关系转换方程具有较高的精度和有效性,效果优于Chander等提出的转换公式。

Evaluating Particle Deposition in the Artificial Groundwater Recharge Process by Physical and CT Imaging Experiments

Particle clogging in the artificial groundwater recharge process is one of the main factors influencing the artificial groundwater recharge efficiency, and particle deposition is the microscopic mechanism of the occurrence and development of particle clogging. Particle deposition in porous media changes the pore structure. The computed tomography (CT) scanning technique is a nondestructive testing method and determines the spatial distribution of pores in porous media. This study combines physical and CT scanning experiments to identify the change process of the pore structure in the artificial groundwater recharge process and compares the pore changes during recharge experiments between two columns containing different media. Porous media changes are observed with the CT scanning technique. The fractal theory is applied in the analysis of CT scan images and physical experiment results. The results of this study indicate that particle deposition can be examined by using CT scan images to obtain pore-related parameters, the internal pore structure of porous media determined through CT scan images can be applied in numerical simulation, and a mathematical model for particle deposition calculation in porous media is established. Compared to the physical experiment measurements, the spatial particle deposition information acquired with the CT scanning technique exhibits a higher accuracy and contains much more relevant data. Not only does this research reveal more clearly the particle clogging mechanism which is based on particle deposition, but also characterize, simulate and predict more accurately the development tendency of particle clogging during artificial groundwater recharge.
