Erythroderma may be secondary to a cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) and various other erythrodermic inflammatory dermatoses (EID), and their histopathologic distinction is often difficult. The aim of this study was to determine if morphological parameters, namely: the presence of b-catenin, and JunB (previously shown to be expressed by CTCL cells), the epidermal CD8:CD3 ratio, and CD30 expressi...

Control of proliferation and differentiation by the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor protein (pRB) and related family members depends upon their interactions with key cellular substrates. Efforts to identify such cellular targets led to the isolation of a novel protein, EID-1 (for E1A-like inhibitor of differentiation 1). Here, we show that EID-1 is a potent inhibitor of differentiation and link...

BACKGROUND To characterize ease in discussing death (EID) and its influence on health valuation in a multi-ethnic Asian population and to determine the acceptability of various descriptors of death and "pits"/"all-worst" in health valuation. METHODS In-depth interviews (English or mother-tongue) among adult Chinese, Malay and Indian Singaporeans selected to represent both genders and a wide r...

Ecological interface design (EID) is a theoretical framework for designing human-computer interfaces for complex sociotechnical systems. Its primary aim is to support knowledge workers in adapting to change and novelty. This literature review shows that in situations requiring problem solving, EID improves performance when compared with current design approaches in industry. EID has been applie...

A major challenge encountered in mass spectrometric metabolite analysis is the identification and structural characterization of metabolites. Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry is a valuable technique for metabolite structural determination because it provides accurate masses and allows for multiple MS/MS fragmentation strategies, including infrared multiphoton dissocia...

This paper proposes a robust tracking control method for swing-up and stabilization of rotational inverted pendulum system by applying equivalent input disturbance (EID) rejection. The mathematical model the was developed using Lagrangian equation. Then, EID, including external disturbances parameter uncertainties, defined; EID observer designed to estimate state dynamics low-pass filter. For r...

The ability to use electronic identities (eID) anytime and anywhere is a prerequisite for a dynamic information society. However, there are still many obstacles which prevent the secure, privacy-friendly and ubiquitous use of electronic identities in an interoperable manner. This paper introduces the vision of global eIDInteroperability, describes the state of the art for electronic identities,...

The European Campus Card Association (ECCA)1 recently completed a research project on the development of ‘Proposal for Trusted Student Identification Framework’2. This involved collaboration with relevant stakeholders including: HEIs, Students and Service Providers. purpose was to engage in process dialogue seek out their views opinions needs requirements trusted eID Credential that supports cr...
