Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer death in the United States. Patients with cirrhosis are more likely to develop HCC. More than 80% of HCC patients are found have preexisting cirrhosis. The prevalence of cirrhosis increased from 0.26% to 0.3.% between 1999 to 2010 and...
While the performance gap between microprocessors and main memory is ever increasing each year, cache memory has been a bridge to alleviate this discrepancy. In this thesis proposal, we introduce three techniques to tolerate this processor and memory speed imbalance. First, we propose the bloom filter scheme to identify which...
Fully efficient systolic arrays for the solution of Toeplitz
matrices using Schur algorithm [1] have been obtained. By applying
clustering mapping method [2], the complexity of the algorithm is
0(n) and it requires n/2 processing elements as opposed to n
processing elements developed elsewhere [1].
The motivation of this thesis...
The major limiting factor of DRAM access time is the low transconductance of the
MOSFET's which have only limited current drive capability. The bipolar junction
transistor(BJT) has a collector current amplification factor, β, times base current and is
limited mostly by the willingness to supply this base current. This collector...
Pactamycin, although putatively touted as a potent antitumor agent, has never been used as an anticancer drug due to its high cytotoxicity. In this study, we characterized the effects of two novel biosynthetically engineered analogs of pactamycin, de-6MSA-7-demethyl-7- deoxypactamycin (TM-025) and 7-demethyl-7-deoxypactamycin (TM-026), in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma...
Abstract: Background: Chronic exposure to arsenic in drinking water is associated with increased risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) but the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear.
Objectives: This study evaluated the interaction between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes associated with diabetes and arsenic exposure in drinking water on...
Ageism in the context of global population aging could lead to increasing human and economic costs. Age stereotypes tend to be negative (Hummert, 1990) and ubiquitous (Nelson, 2002) there are a variety of well documented detrimental consequences of negative age stereotypes on older adults' physical, cognitive and psychological outcomes (Hummert,...
Abstract:
IODP 351 cruise to the back arc region of the Izu Bonin contained cores with tephra
layers intermitted within. These tephra layers under went electron micro probe
analysis to gather major earth element abundances in order to put a parameter of a.
where did the tephra originate from (volcanic...
