226 Brunvand, Erik L.Critical hazard free test generation for asynchronous circuitsWe describe a technique to generate critical hazard-free tests for self-timed control circuits build using a macromodule library, in a partial scan based DFT environment. We propose a 6 valued algebra to generate these tests which are guaranteed to be critical hazard free under an unbounded delay m...1997
227 Goller, FranzDynamical origin of spectrally rich vocalizations in birdsongBirdsong is a model system for learned vocal behavior with remarkable parallels to human vocal development and sound production mechanisms. Upper vocal tract filtering plays an important role in human speech, and its importance has recently also been recognized in birdsong. However, the mechanisms...Taeniopygia guttata; Labial oscillations; SNILC bifurcation2008-07
228 Liu, FengFirst-principles study of strain stabilization of Ge(105) facet on Si(001)Using the first-principles total energy method, we calculate surface energies, surface stresses, and their strain dependence of the Ge-covered Si (001) and (105) surfaces. The surface energy of the Si(105) surface is shown to be higher than that of Si(001), but it can be reduced by the Ge deposition...First-principles calculation; Strain stabilization; Ge(105); Si(001); Strained thin films; Epitaxial growth2005-09
229 Couldwell, William T.; Osborne, Anne G.Hypertrophic olivary degeneration after surgical removal of cavernous malformations of the brain stem: report of four cases and review of the literatureBackground: Hypertrophic olivary degeneration (HOD) is a pathological phenomenon that occurs after injury to the dentato-olivary pathway. Its hallmarks include hypertrophy of the olive with increased T2 signal intensity on magnetic resonance imaging, and often manifests with palatal tremor and osci...Hypertrophic olivary degeneration; Surgery; Cavernous malformation; Brainstem2008
230 Potts, Wayne K.Infection-dependent phenotypes in MHC-congenic mice are not due to MHC: can we trust congenic animals?Congenic strains of mice are assumed to differ only at a single gene or region of the genome. These mice have great importance in evaluating the function of genes. However, their utility depends on the maintenance of this true congenic nature. Although, accumulating evidence suggests that congenic ...Strains; Mutations; Pathogen2004
231 Weinstein, DavidLead field basis for FEM source localizationIn recent years, significant progress has been made in the area of EEG/MEG source imaging. source imaging on simple spherical models has become increasingly efficient, with consistently reported accuracy of within 5mm. In contrast, source localization on realistic head models remains slow, with sub-...FEM source localization; Source imaging; EEG; MEG1999
232 Couldwell, William T.Multifocal inflammatory leukoencephalopathy associated with levamisole and 5-fluorouracil: case reportLEVAMISOLE AND 5-FLUOROURACIL have now become the standard chemotherapeutic regimen for patients with Stage 111 colon carcinoma. A case of multifocal inflammatory leukoencephalopathy secondary to levamisole alone or combination of levamisole and 5-fluorouracil is reported. Magnetic resonance imaging...Autopsy; Levamisole; Multifocal inflammatory leukoencephalopathy1994
233 Weinstein, DavidStatistical analysis for FEM EEG source localization in realistic head modelsEstimating the location and distribution of electric current sources within the brain from electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings is an ill-posed inverse problem. The ill-posed nature of the inverse EEG problem is due to the lack of a unique solution such that different configurations of sources c...inverse EEG problem; FEM EEG; source localization2000
234 Pounder, Diana G.Theory to practice in administrator preparation: an evaluation studyThe purpose of this paper is to evaluate the effectiveness of a field-based doctoral program in educational administration on linking theory and research to the improvement of practice. Specifically, the study evaluates the degree and ways in which doctoral student field-based projects and studies c...Educational administration; Doctoral programs; Theory-practice programs1995
235 Smith, Ken R.Familial effects of BRCA1 genetic mutation testing: changes in perceived family functioningThis study expands recent research that examines how the receipt of BRCA1 genetic test results affects family adaptability and cohesion 1 year after genetic risknotification. Study participants were members of a large Utah-based kindred with an identified mutation at the BRCA1 locus. The final samp...Genetic testing; families; risk notification: BRCA12007
236 Jalili, ThunderMammalian target of rapamycin Is a critical regulator of cardiac hypertrophy in spontaneously hypertensive ratsEvidence exists that protein kinase C and the mammalian target of rapamycin are important regulators of cardiac hypertrophy. We examined the contribution of these signaling kinases to cardiac growth in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs). Systolic blood pressure was increased (P<0.001) at 10 wee...2009
237 Kerber, Richard A.Mitochondrial genomic analysis of late onset alzheimers disease reveals protective haplogroups H6A1A/H6A1B: the Cache County study on memory in agingBackground: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia and AD risk clusters within families. Part of the familial aggregation of AD is accounted for by excess maternal vs. paternal inheritance, a pattern consistent with mitochondrial inheritance. The role of specific mitochondrial...2012-01-01
238 Wolfinger, Nicholas H.Problems in the pipeline: gender, marriage, and fertility in the ivory towerWomen have traditionally fared worse than men in the workplace. In few places has this been more apparent than higher education (Jacobs, 1996). In 2003, women received 47% of PhDs awarded (National Center for Education Statistics [NCES], 2005a) but comprised only 35% of tenured or tenure-track fac...Family; Career; Marital Status2008
239 Zhdanov, Michael S.Quasi-linear approximation in 3-D electromagnetic modelingThe Born approximation in electromagnetic (EM) numerical modeling has limited application for solving 3-D electromagnetic induction problems, because in structures with high conductivity contrasts and at high frequencies, this approximation is inaccurate. In this paper, we develop a new and rel...1996-01-01

241 Armentrout, Peter B.Statistical modeling of sequential collision-induced dissociation thresholdsThermochemistry determined from careful analysis of the energy dependence of cross sections for collision-induced dissociation (CID) reactions has primarily come from the primary dissociation channel. Higher order dissociations generally have thresholds measured to be higher than the thermodynamic ...Collision-induced dissociation; Endothermic reactions2007
242 Zimmer, ZacharyLiving arrangements of older adults in sub-Saharan Africa in a time of HIV/AIDSThe detrimental consequences of the AIDS epidemic for older adults in sub-Saharan Africa suggest the need to investigate their characteristics, living situations, and well-being.

244 Kriesel, John D.; Baringer, J R; Spruance, Spotswood L.Correlation between detection of herpes simplex virus in oral secretions by PCR and susceptibility to experimental UV radiation-induced herpes labialis.We examined the oral secretions of 25 patients for herpes simplex virus (HSV) at the time of and following experimental UV radiation (UVR). HSV was detected in one or more oral secretion specimens in 5 of 12 (42%) cases by cell culture and in 8 of 12 (67%) cases by PCR. On the day of UVR, HSV was de...Polymerase Chain Reaction; Ultraviolet Rays; Simplexvirus1994
245 Miller, Jan D.Experimental evaluation of a mineral exposure model for crushed copper oresCopper mineral inclusions dispersed in crushed ore particles have a certain size distribution (grain-size distribution).
