This paper considers the use of a tuned inerter damper (TID) system for suppressing unwanted cable vibrations. The TID consists of an inerter, a device that exerts a force proportional to relative acceleration, coupled with a parallel spring and damper. It may be thought of as similar to a tuned-mass-damper, but requiring two terminals. As a two terminal device, the performance of the TID is co...

In this paper, a brief overview of TID effect in SOI technology is presented. The introduction of buried oxide(BOX) adds vulnerability to TID effect in SOI transistors because of its large thickness. Also the BOX introduces special charge traps, the delocalized spin centers, which in most cases are positive. The charge buildup in BOX could increase the leakage current in front gate transistor i...

Background: Transient arrhythmias can affect transient ischemic dilation (TID) ratios. This study was initiated to evaluate the frequency and effect of normal heart rate change on TID measures in routine clinical practice. Methods: Consecutive patients undergoing stress/rest sestamibi gated myocardial perfusion scintigraphy were studied (N = 407). Heart rate at the time of stress and rest imagi...

Patients were 18-55 years old and were considered ambulatory (EDSS [Expanded Disability Status Scale] score ≤5). Patients were excluded if they had a progressive form of MS, another major disease, abnormal lab tests, or a recent exposure to contraindicated medication. The patients were randomly given either dimethyl fumarate 240 mg twice daily (BID), dimethyl fumarate 240 mg three times daily (...

The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and the effect of D-tagatose on the glycemic control of subjects with type 2 diabetes as determined by HbA1c levels at the end of 6 months of therapy using the subject's own baseline HbA1c level as a comparator. The determination of the minimal dose required to cause a statistically significant reduction in HbA1c was of particular i...

A total of 75 lactating sows were used in a study to determine whether the ratio of total sulfur amino acid (TSAA) to lysine calculated from the NRC (1998) is adequate for lactating sows. Low and high sulfur amino acid diets were formulated to contain a (true ileal digestible (TID) TSAA content of 0.44 or 0.57%, respectively. Both experimental diets were based on corn and soybean meal and were ...

OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy and safety of twice- and thrice-daily biphasic insulin aspart 30 (BIAsp 30) in Chinese subjects with type 2 diabetes inadequately controlled with oral antidiabetes drugs (OADs). RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS In this 24-week, multicenter, parallel-group, randomized, treat-to-target study, 321 Chinese insulin-naïve subjects with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes (...

INTRODUCTION In a preceding trial comparing two different titration schemes, insulin degludec/insulin aspart (IDegAsp) showed good efficacy for achieving HbA1c <7% when administered twice daily (BID) in patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (T2D). However, poor glycemic control persisted in a minority of patients. The current exploratory trial investigated the efficacy and safety of intens...
