Graphical techniques for modeling the dependencies of random variables have been explored in a variety of different areas, including statistics, statistical physics, artificial intelligence, speech recognition, image processing, and genetics. Formalisms for manipulating these models have been developed relatively independently in these research communities. In this paper we explore hidden Marko...

Drosophila GoLoco motif-containing protein Pins is unusual in its highly efficient interaction with both GDP- and the GTP-loaded forms of the α-subunit of the heterotrimeric Go protein. We analysed the interactions of Gαo in its two nucleotide forms with GoLoco1-the first of the three GoLoco domains of Pins-and the possible structures of the resulting complexes, through combination of conventio...

Proteins may not only perform a few of molecular functions, but it may also have many interactions with other proteins to accomplish a biological process successfully in cell [1]. These interactions could be defined as PINs (Protein Interaction Network). In general, researchers may adopt the yeast two-hybrid system for identifying protein interaction and it should be managed in database systema...

Supracondylar fractures of the humerus occur frequently in children and account for approximately 70% of all elbow fractures. The aim of this systematic review is to critically appraise randomized controlled trials in the literature comparing the outcome of surgical treatment of extension type Gartland III supracondylar fractures using either a cross pin configuration or lateral pins only for f...

PURPOSE To determine the safety, utility, and efficacy of pin removal prior to radiographs during the postoperative care of surgically treated displaced pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures. METHODS Retrospective review of 532 children with supracondylar humerus fractures treated with closed reduction and pinning from 2007 to 2012. Group 1: children who had their splint/cast removed and ...

Loss of function of pins (partner of inscuteable) partially disrupts neuroblast (NB) polarity and asymmetric division, results in fewer and smaller NBs and inhibits Drosophila larval brain growth. Food deprivation also inhibits growth. However, we find that the combination of loss of function of pins and dietary restriction results in loss of NB asymmetry, overproliferation of ...

The use of pin fixation for grafts in the femoral tunnel in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is becoming more popular. The transtibial stiff femoral guides are necessary to ensure that the pins fix the graft. However, the cross pins can sometimes miss the femoral tunnel. As a result of some technical problems that we encountered, we introduced an extra step in the technique of th...

This paper explores the impulsion and vibration properties of different tactile patterns (icons). These properties describe the unique movements of the pins with different values of staying raised or lowered. The tactile feedback is provided by Braille pins on a finger and is in the form of different patterns chosen for the experiments. We tested these features on the Braille display of dimensi...
