A new structure for digitalk controlled oscillator (DCO) is presented in this paper. The proposed structure of DCO is implemented by standard cell libray, and with the help of C program and HSPICE simulator, the DCO can be designed in a systematic way. The DCO, which is realized on a lP4M 0.35-pm CMOS process, has a target jivquencjj at 250MHz, and it covers three process, voltage, and temperat...

Gorlin-Goltz syndrome is an infrequent multi-systemic disease which is characterized by multiple keratocysts in the jaws, calcification of falx cerebri, and basal cell carcinomas. We report a case of Gorlin-Goltz syndrome in a 23-year-old man with emphasis on image findings of keratocyctic odontogenic tumors (KCOTs) on panoramic radiograph, computed tomography, magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, ...

BACKGROUND The purpose of the FABO-study is to evaluate the effect of family-based behavioral social facilitation treatment (FBSFT), designed to target children's family and social support networks to enhance weight loss outcomes, compared to the standard treatment (treatment as usual, TAU) given to children and adolescents with obesity in a routine clinical practice. METHODS Randomized contr...

Purpose of the paper was to evaluate ocular optical components (OOC) interactions in a large number of emmetropes. A cross-sectional study of 1,000 emmetropes, aged from 18-40 years, has been conducted. Complete ophthalmological examination, corneal radius (CR) measurement, keratometry and echobiometry of both eyes were performed. The highest correlation of OOC was that of axial length (Ax) wit...

Epoxidized castor oil (ECO) has shown high potential for industrial applications as value-added products such polymer coating, plasticizer, and biolubricant. ricinoleic acid recovered from ECO usage. In this work, epoxidized (ERA) was synthesized through in situ generated performic epoxidation of (RA). The process optimized by several reaction parameters, the molar ratio formic to ethylenic uns...

Microperforated membranes are essential components of various organ-on-a-chip (OOC) barrier models developed to study transport molecular compounds and cells across cell layers in e.g. the intestine blood-brain barrier. These OOC have two functions: 1) support growth on one or both sides, 2) act as a filter-like separate adjacent compartments. Thin, microperforated poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS)...

Organ-on-a-chip (OOC) devices bring innovative disease modeling and drug discovery approaches by providing biomimetic models of tissues organs in vitro combined with biosensors. Miniaturized biosensor systems tissue biofabrication techniques allow to create multiple on a chip highly controlling the experimental variables for high-content screening applications. In this work, multi-OOC integrate...

The surface-active and emulsifying properties of crude aqueous ethanolic extracts from untreated olive oil cake (OOC) were investigated. OOC contained important concentrations components including proteins, saponins polyphenols (1.2–2.8%, 7.8–9.5% 0.7–4.5% (w/w), respectively) reduced the interfacial tension by up to 46% (14.0 ± 0.2 mN m?1) at oil–water interface. ability was not correlated, ho...

Guidance is needed to help clinicians decide which out-of-center (OOC) testing devices are appropriate for diagnosing obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). A new classification system that details the type of signals measured by these devices is presented. This proposed system categorizes OOC devices based on measurements of Sleep, Cardiovascular, Oximetry, Position, Effort, and Respiratory (SCOPER) p...
