We present multi-frequency VLBA observations of two polarized Compact Symmetric Objects (CSOs), J0000+4054 and J1826+1831, and a polarized CSO candidate, J1915+6548. Using the wavelength-squared dependence of Fara-day rotation, we obtained rotation measures (RMs) of −180±10 rad m −2 and 1540±7 rad m −2 for the latter two sources. These are lower than what is expected of CSOs (several 1000 rad m...

Catlin et al. [1, Corollary 9A] characterised the graphs G with the property that ham(G) > rad(G) + 1 where ham(G) and rad(G) stand for the hamiltonian index and the radius of G, respectively. Here a slightly stronger result is presented. In effect, the graphs for which ham(G) > rad(G) holds are characterised in a similar way.

As a systems development approach, RAD has both critics and supporters whose opinions have led to considerable debate about its application for large, complex information systems (IS) development. Literature supports the view that RAD is not suitable for all types of project but that is generally associated with small/medium projects that have low levels of complexity. Contrary to these publish...

p53 tumor suppressor gene therapy has been proposed for cancers characterized by inactivation of p53 function, and successful therapy will require efficient strategies for gene delivery. To maximize transgene expression in tumors, a clinical strategy has been proposed to treat neoplasms in the liver via hepatic artery administration of a recombinant adenovirus encoding wild-type p53 (rAd-p53). ...

BACKGROUND Child maltreatment is a major risk factor for psychopathology, including reactive attachment disorder (RAD). AIMS To examine whether neural activity during reward processing was altered in children and adolescents with RAD. METHOD Sixteen children and adolescents with RAD and 20 typically developing (TD) individuals performed tasks with high and low monetary rewards while undergo...

BACKGROUND Lower cranial neuropathies are a late effect of radiotherapy (RT), typically reported in nasopharyngeal cancer survivors. Limited data examine these neuropathies after oropharyngeal cancer, particularly as it relates to late radiation-associated dysphagia (late-RAD). METHODS Two cases were examined over 4 to 6 years. Late-RAD was assessed per MBS impairment profile (MBSImP™©), Pene...

Massively parallel sequencing has revolutionized many areas of biology, but sequencing large amounts of DNA in many individuals is cost-prohibitive and unnecessary for many studies. Genomic complexity reduction techniques such as sequence capture and restriction enzyme-based methods enable the analysis of many more individuals per unit cost. Despite their utility, current complexity reduction m...

We revealed the cytotoxic effect of the flavonoid, fisetin (FIS), on human COLO205 colon cancer cells in the presence and absence of the HSP90 inhibitors, geldanamycin (GA) and radicicol (RAD). Compared to FIS treatment alone of COLO205 cells, GA and RAD significantly enhanced FIS-induced cytotoxicity, increased expression of cleaved caspase-3 and the PAPR protein, and produced a greater densit...

This paper presents an FPGA-based Solid State Drive (SSD) architecture for data-intensive applications called Reconfigurable Active Drive (RAD). In the RAD architecture, an FPGA utilizes parallel data transfer of flash memory to improve the data throughput for streaming applications. The storage architecture is designed to match the I/O bandwidth of the FPGA and is capable of fully parallelizin...
