 | LaStayo, Paul C. | Resistance exercise with older fallers: Its impact on intermuscular adipose tissue | Objective. Greater skeletal muscle fat infiltration occurs with age and contributes to numerous negative health outcomes. The primary purpose was to determine whether intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) can be influenced by an exercise intervention and if a greater reduction in IMAT occurs with ecce... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Light, Alan R. | Response to Letter by Dr. Smirmaul Group III/IV muscle afferents contribute to both perception of effort and fatigue | We thank Dr. Smirmaul for his interest in our findings, but advise caution not to over-interpret the data to address a question which would have required an entirely different study design. Specifically, the letter to the editor is strongly focused on effort perception, a variable which was, as expe... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Balasubramonian, Rajeev | Sandbox prefetching: safe run-time evaluation of aggressive prefetchers | Memory latency is a major factor in limiting CPU per- formance, and prefetching is a well-known method for hiding memory latency. Overly aggressive prefetching can waste scarce resources such as memory bandwidth and cache capacity, limiting or even hurting performance. It is therefore important to e... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Furse, Cynthia M. | Scaling the response of nanocrescent antennas into the ultraviolet | We investigate the scaling of nanocrescent antennas for applications at UV wavelengths. These antennas have been extensively studied at infrared wavelengths due to their relative ease of fabrication [1] and tunability [2] via nanosphere template lithography. Their response at UV wavelengths, however... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Kasera, Sneha K. | Secret key extraction using Bluetooth wireless signal strength measurements | Bluetooth has found widespread adoption in phones, wireless headsets, stethoscopes, glucose monitors, and oximeters for communication of, at times, very critical information. However, the link keys and encryption keys in Bluetooth are ultimately generated from a short 4 digit PIN, which can be crack... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Wambaugh, Julie L. | Semantic feature analysis: Application to confrontation naming of actions in aphasia | Background: Despite advances in the development and testing of therapies for verb retrieval impairments in aphasia, generalization effects of treatment remain a challenge. Semantic Feature Analysis (SFA) is a word retrieval treatment that has been reported to result in generalized responding to untr... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Gerig, Guido | Semi-automated application for kidney motion correction and filtration analysis in MR renography | Altered renal function commonly affects patients with cirrhosis, a consequence of chronic liver disease. From lowdose contrast material-enhanced magnetic resonance (MR) renography, we can estimate the Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR), an important parameter to assess renal function. Two-dimensional ... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Macleod, Robert S. | Sensitivity and specificity of substrate mapping: An in silico framework for the evaluation of electroanatomical substrate mapping strategies | Background - Voltage mapping is an important tool for characterizing proarrhythmic electrophysiological substrate, yet it is subject to geometric factors that influence bipolar amplitudes and thus compromise performance. The aim of this study was to characterize the impact of catheter orientation on... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Macleod, Robert S. | Sensitivity of epicardial electrical markers to acute ischemia detection | Introduction: We hypothesize that electrocardiographic measurements from the intramyocardial space contain more sensitive markers of ischemia than those detectable on the epicardium. The goal of this study was to evaluate different electrical markers for their potential to detect the earliest phases... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Capecchi, Mario R. | Sepp1UF forms are N-terminal selenoprotein P truncations that have peroxidase activity when coupled with thioredoxin reductase-1 | Mouse selenoprotein P (Sepp1) consists of an N-terminal domain (residues 1-239) that contains 1 selenocysteine (U) as residue 40 in a proposed redox-active motif (-UYLC-) and a Cterminal domain (residues 240-361) that contains 9 selenocysteines. Sepp1 transports selenium from the liver to other tiss... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Tiwari, Ashutosh | Shape of the Hanle curve in spin-transport structures in the presence of an ac drive | Resistance between two ferromagnetic electrodes coupled to a normal channel depends on their relative magnetizations. The spin-dependent component, R, of the resistance changes with magnetic field, B, normal to the directions of magnetizations. In the field of spin transport, this change, R(B), orig... | 2014-01-01 | |

 | Bargteil, Adam Wade | Strain limiting for clustered shape matching | In this paper, we advocate explicit symplectic Euler integration and strain limiting in a shape matching simulation framework. The resulting approach resembles not only previous work on shape matching and strain limiting, but also the recently popular position-based dynamics. However, unlike this pr... | 2014-01-01 | |
