We tested the hypothesis that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within genes of the NF-κB pathway are associated with altered clinical outcome of septic shock patients. We genotyped 59 SNPs in the NF-κB pathway in a discovery cohort of septic…

This paper presents the design of a two-stage pseudo- differential operational transconductance amplifier (OTA). The circuit was designed in a standard 0.18 m, 0.5 V VT digital CMOS process. An improved bulk-mode common-mode feedback (CMFB) circuit…

A 1.8 V integrated single-inductor dual-output boost converter is presented. This converter adopts a time-multiplexing control in providing two independent supply voltages using only one 1 μH off-chip inductor. The topology could easily be extended…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate A1C for screening and diagnosis of undiagnosed type 2 diabetes defined by oral glucose tolerance testing in clinical and general populations. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: A1C cut offs (5.5% to rule out diabetes; 7.0% to rule…

We consider a one-dimensional coupled stationary Schrodinger drift-diffusion model for quantum semiconductor device simulations. The device domain is decomposed into a part with large quantum effects (quantum zone) and a part where quantum effects…

We show that it is possible to measure the parallel and the perpendicular flow in a strongly magnetized plasma, using a probe with two current collecting surfaces, inclined with respect to the magnetic field. The method is based on a one-dimensional…

We hypothesized that adenosine, acting via the A1 receptor, is a key factor in the homeostatic control of sleep. The increase in extracellular levels of adenosine during prolonged wakefulness is thought to facilitate the transition to sleep by…

A large amount of wind power generation capacity is expected to be installed in Great Britain by 2020. A considerable amount of this capacity will be located in Scotland. This will require reinforcement of power transmission capacity between…

This paper presents a low power boost converter for thermoelectric energy harvesting that demonstrates an efficiency that is 15% higher than the state-of-the-art for voltage conversion ratios above 20. This is achieved by utilizing a technique…

A 2D fourth-order compact direct scheme projection decomposition method for solving incompressible viscous flows in multi-connected rectangular domains is devised. In each subdomain, the governing Navier-Stokes equations are discretized by using…

A nonlinear, fully implicit solver for a 2D high-beta (incompressible) Hall magnetohydrodynamics (HMHD) model is proposed. The task in non-trivial because HMHD supports the whistler wave. This wave is dispersive (omega~k2) and therefore results in…
