479 Symons, John DavidInfluence of folate on arterial permeability and stiffness in the absence or presence of hyperhomocysteinemiaElevation of plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, but the underlying mechanisms are not well understood.1 Worldwide, the most common cause of mild hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) is deficiency of folate.2,3 Some4-8 but not all9,10 studies sugg...Cystathionine B-synthase; Carotid artery; Aorta; Cardiovascular risk factors; Folate; Hyperhomocysteinemia; Arterial permeability; Arterial stiffness2006
480 Bruderlin, BeatInteraction with constraints in 3D modelingInteractive geometric modeling is an important part of the industrial product design process.

482 Kestle, John R. W.; Brockmeyer, Douglas LeeOutcomes after decompressive craniectomy for severe traumatic brain injury in childrenObject. Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is often accompanied by early death due to transtentorial herniation. Decompressive craniectomy, performed alone or in conjunction with evacuation of the mass lesion, can reduce the incidence of raised intracranial pressure (ICP). In this paper the authors...Traumatic brain injury; Decompressive craniectomy; Pediatric neurosurgery2006
483 Mitchell, Joyce A.Predicting phenotypic severity of uncertain gene variants in the RET Proto-OncogeneAlthough reported gene variants in the RET oncogene have been directly associated with multiple endocrine neoplasia type 2 and hereditary medullary thyroid carcinoma, other mutations are classified as variants of uncertain significance (VUS) until the associated clinical phenotype is made clear. Cur...2011-01-01
484 Couldwell, William T.Protein kinase C inhibitors suppress cell growth in established and low-passage glioma cell lines. a comparison between staurosporine and tamoxifenWE HAVE PREVIOUSLY demonstrated that the proliferation of established human glioma cell lines correlated with protein kinase C (PKC) activity and that a relatively selective PKC inhibitor, staurosporine, inhibits glioma cell proliferation. The purpose of this study was to determine whether low-passa...Staurosporin; Tamoxifen; Protein kinase C; Glioma; Brain neoplasm; Glioma cell lines1993
485 Henderson, Thomas C.Received signal strength based bearing-only robot navigation in a sensor network fieldThis paper presents a low-complexity, novel approach to wireless sensor network (WSN) assisted autonomous mobile robot (AMR) navigation. The goal is to have an AMR navigate to a target location using only the information inherent to WSNs, i.e., topology of the WSN and received signal strength (RSS) ...2014-01-01
486 Vardeny, Zeev ValentineTransient photomodulation spectroscopy of nanocrystalline hydrogenated siliconTransient photomodulation spectra were measured on nanocrystalline Si:H films in the time domain from 10-7 to 10-2 s, spectral range from 0.25 to 1.25 eV, and temperature range from 80 to 300 K. The properties of the spectra are compatible with the presence of two phases, amorphous and crystalline. ...Transient photomodulation spectroscopy; Nanocrystalline silicon1989-03
487 Van Uitert, Robert; Weinstein, David; Johnson, Christopher R.Volume currents in forward and inverse MEG simulations using realistic head modelsMany magnetoencephalography (MEG) forward and inverse simulation models employ spheres, a singular shape which does not require consideration of volume currents. With more realistic, inhomogenous, anisotropic, non-spherical head models, volume currents cannot be ignored. We verify the accuracy of ...Forward MEG, Inverse MEG, Source localization, Volume currents, Finite element method2001
488 Ailion, David CharlesDetection of slow modulation wave diffusion in incommensurate barium sodium niobate by 93Nb 2D exchange NMR93Nb two-dimensional (2D) exchange NMR was used to study ultraslow motions in incommensurate barium sodium niobate (BSN) in the temperature range 500 - 560 K. These 2D exchange data provide strong evidence for diffusionlike motion of the modulation wave in BSN. Such motions in BSN had been previousl...NMR; Hahn spin-echo decay; Incommensurate systems.2001
