Radix Bupleuri (Chaihu) has been used as a traditional medicine for more than 2000 years in China, Japan, Korea, and other Asian countries. Phytochemical studies demonstrated that this plant contains essential oils, triterpenoid saponins, polyacetylenes, flavonoids, lignans, fatty acids, and sterols. Crude extracts and pure compounds isolated from Radix Bupleuri exhibited various biological act...

background in rhinoplasty, functional and cosmetic problems of the nose are corrected. these problems cause imbalance between the nasal subunit and face. throughout these deformities, there are 4 variants, so there is a need for careful preoperative evaluation either for treatment or prevention of the occurrence. according to functional and aesthetic effects of these variables in rhinoplasty, e...

In long-point fast Fourier transform (FFT) processing, the table size is large enough to occupy significant area and power consumption. The proposed algorithm can reduce the required table size to half, compared to the radix-2 algorithm, while retaining the simple structure. To verify the proposed algorithm, a 2048-point pipelined FFT processor is designed using a 0.13 μm CMOS process. By combi...

Abstract Bupleuri Herba is widely distributed and traditionally used for the similar clinical application of Bupleuri Radix in Jiangsu and Anhui province in China. To elucidate the difference of material basis between Bupliuri Radix and Bupleuri Herba, a HPLC fingerprint method combined with DAD detection was developed for effective components analysis of these two herb medicines. Both flavonoi...

The radix-22 was a milestone in the design of pipelined FFT hardware architectures. Later, radix-2 extended to radix2.However, radix-2 was only proposed for single path delay feedback (SFD) architectures, but not for feedforward, and also it called multi path delay commutator (MDC) .The radix-216 feedforward Fast Fourier Transform architecture (FFT). In feedforward architectures radix-2 can be ...

We describe a high radix integer division algorithm where the divisor is prescaled and the quotient is postscaled without modifying the dividend to obtain an identity with the quotient differing from the desired integer quotient only in its lowest order high radix digit. Here the “oversized” partial remainder is bounded by the scaled divisor with at most one additional high radix digit selectio...

OBJECTIVE Oxidative damage is a critical role which involves hearing loss induced by impulse noise. That exogenous antioxidant agents reduce noise induced hearing loss (NIHL) has been well demonstrated in both animal studies and clinical practices. Choosing a stronger and more effective antioxidant is very important for treatment of NIHL. Vitamin E, α-lipoic acid, and radix astragali are the mo...

Radix Sophorae Tonkinensis (S. tonkinensis) is the processed lateral root of Sophora subprostrata (Leguminosae) that widely distributed over the southwest China. Radix Sophorae Tonkinensis has been widely used as a Chinese medicinal herb for the treatment of disease such as jaundice, inflammation, and aches. Herein, in order to investigate the effects of Radix Sophorae Tonkinensis on the metabo...

The Radix-4 Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is widely accepted for signal processing applications in wireless communication system. Here, we present a new Radix-4 FFT which reduces the operational count by 6% lesser than standard Radix-4 FFT without losing any arithmetic accuracy. Simulation results are also given for the verification of the algorithm.

The development of a new general radix-b division algorithm, based on the Svoboda-Tung division, suitable for VLSI implementation is presented. The new algorithm overcomes the drawbacks of the Svoboda-Tung techniques that have prevented the VLSI implementation. First of all, the proposed algorithm is valid for any radix b ≥ 2; and next, it avoids the possible compensation due to overflow on the...
