A simple surface-mounted tapered tab has recently attracted uids research both for its ability to enhance mixing and heat transfer (for which it is known as high-e ciency vortab mixer) and for its generation of coherent structures that are topologically similar to those found in natural turbulent boundary layers. Two types of structures, namely pressure-driven counter-rotating vortex pair (CVP)...

An account is given of a theoretical flutter investigation in connection with an accident to a Sea Venom aircraft. The investigation covers both symmetric and antisymmetric flutter of the tailplane-elevator-tab system. The main (symmetric) calculations include six degrees of freedom, comprising three structural modes and movements of elevator, spring-tab and trim-tab respectively. The parameter...

OBJECTIVE Aberrant rho kinase (ROCK) activity is implicated in the pathogenesis of several vascular diseases and is associated with Th17 differentiation. Th17 immune response is recognized in the pathogenesis of GCA. The aim of this study was to assess ROCK activity in GCA. METHODS All patients who underwent temporal artery biopsy (TAB) at a tertiary care centre over 5 years were identified a...

Prostate cancer is the most common malignancy among North American men, and radiation and total androgen blockade (tab) are commonly used treatment options. In metastatic prostate cancer, tab is considered first-line treatment; it is also used in the treatment of both locally advanced and recurrent prostate cancer1,2. Although not routinely recommended as first-line therapy for the management o...

— Random device mismatch that arises as a result of scaling of the CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) technology into the deep submicron regime degrades the accuracy of analogue circuits. Methods to combat this increase the complexity of design. We have developed a novel neuromorphic system called a Trainable Analogue Block (TAB), which exploits device mismatch as a means for random...

We describe large-sample research using the Infant Laboratory Temperament Assessment Battery (Lab-TAB; Goldsmith and Rothbart, 1996) in 1,076 infants at 6 and 12 months of age. The Lab-TAB was designed to assess temperament dimensions through a series of episodes that mimic everyday situations. Our goal is to provide guidelines for scoring Lab-TAB episodes to derive temperament composites. We a...

PURPOSE To describe the anatomical course of the intralaryngeal portion of the inferior laryngeal nerve (ILN) and to standardize the surgical access to its thyroarytenoid branch (TAb) through the thyroid cartilage. METHODS Under surgical microscopy, 33 adult human excised larynges were dissected, to expose the intralaryngeal portion of ILN. The point of entry of TAb, ILN's terminal branch, in...

Nuclear-encoded cytoplasmic tRNAs are imported into the mitochondria of kinetoplastid protozoa by an unknown mechanism. In a Leishmania in organello system, ATP-dependent import of a cloned, unspliced tRNATyr(GUA) transcript was demonstrated by protection from ribonuclease, whereas import of a tRNAGln(CUG) transcript was much less efficient. Specific binding of tRNATyr to two mitochondrial surf...
