    Measurement of Congestion in the Simultaneous Presence of Desirable and Undesirable Outputs (2014)
    Hindawi
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-04-16
    Description: The concept of congestion, which is mainly applied in economics, refers to a situation where inputs are overinvested. Many studies have focused on congestion measurement by means of data envelopment analysis (DEA). However, most of the previous investigations only considered the framework of desirable outputs. In fact, firms in the real world unavoidably generate undesirable outputs (such as pollutants or wastes) along with desirable outputs. Therefore, a new scheme is required for measuring congestion in the simultaneous presence of both desirable and undesirable outputs. This paper develops a nonradial efficiency measure for including undesirable outputs into the environmental performance. Based on the proposed model, a new definition and a new approach are presented to deal with congestion in the simultaneous presence of desirable and undesirable outputs. Then, this paper uses the presented method to study the pollutants (waste gas emission and waste discharge) of 31 administrative regions of China. The finding indicates that 7 industries pay attention to the reduction of their pollutants accompanying improvement of their commercial targets. Consequently, they do not show congestion in any input.

    BACH2 represses effector programs to stabilize T(reg)-mediated immune homeostasis (2013)
    Nature Publishing Group (NPG)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-06-04
    Description: Through their functional diversification, distinct lineages of CD4(+) T cells can act to either drive or constrain immune-mediated pathology. Transcription factors are critical in the generation of cellular diversity, and negative regulators antagonistic to alternate fates often act in conjunction with positive regulators to stabilize lineage commitment. Genetic polymorphisms within a single locus encoding the transcription factor BACH2 are associated with numerous autoimmune and allergic diseases including asthma, Crohn's disease, coeliac disease, vitiligo, multiple sclerosis and type 1 diabetes. Although these associations point to a shared mechanism underlying susceptibility to diverse immune-mediated diseases, a function for BACH2 in the maintenance of immune homeostasis has not been established. Here, by studying mice in which the Bach2 gene is disrupted, we define BACH2 as a broad regulator of immune activation that stabilizes immunoregulatory capacity while repressing the differentiation programs of multiple effector lineages in CD4(+) T cells. BACH2 was required for efficient formation of regulatory (Treg) cells and consequently for suppression of lethal inflammation in a manner that was Treg-cell-dependent. Assessment of the genome-wide function of BACH2, however, revealed that it represses genes associated with effector cell differentiation. Consequently, its absence during Treg polarization resulted in inappropriate diversion to effector lineages. In addition, BACH2 constrained full effector differentiation within TH1, TH2 and TH17 cell lineages. These findings identify BACH2 as a key regulator of CD4(+) T-cell differentiation that prevents inflammatory disease by controlling the balance between tolerance and immunity.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3710737/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3710737/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Roychoudhuri, Rahul -- Hirahara, Kiyoshi -- Mousavi, Kambiz -- Clever, David -- Klebanoff, Christopher A -- Bonelli, Michael -- Sciume, Giuseppe -- Zare, Hossein -- Vahedi, Golnaz -- Dema, Barbara -- Yu, Zhiya -- Liu, Hui -- Takahashi, Hayato -- Rao, Mahadev -- Muranski, Pawel -- Crompton, Joseph G -- Punkosdy, George -- Bedognetti, Davide -- Wang, Ena -- Hoffmann, Victoria -- Rivera, Juan -- Marincola, Francesco M -- Nakamura, Atsushi -- Sartorelli, Vittorio -- Kanno, Yuka -- Gattinoni, Luca -- Muto, Akihiko -- Igarashi, Kazuhiko -- O'Shea, John J -- Restifo, Nicholas P -- Z01 BC011037-01/Intramural NIH HHS/ -- Z99 CA999999/Intramural NIH HHS/ -- ZIA BC011037-02/Intramural NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2013 Jun 27;498(7455):506-10. doi: 10.1038/nature12199.

    Caffeic acid modified glassy carbon electrode for electrocatalytic oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) (2000)
    Springer
    Journal of solid state electrochemistry 4 (2000), S. 87-94 
    Details
    ISSN: 1433-0768
    Keywords: Key words Caffeic acid ; NADH ; Modified electrodes ; Catalytic methods ; Electrocatalytic oxidation

    Notes: Abstract A new modified electrode was prepared by electrodeposition of caffeic acid (CFA) at the surface of an activated glassy carbon electrode. Cyclic voltammetry was used to investigate the redox properties of this electrode at various solution pH values and at various scan rates. The pH dependence of the electrode response was found to be 58.5 mV/pH, which is very close to the expected Nernstian value. The electrode was also employed to study electrocatalytic oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and rotating disk voltammetry as diagnostic techniques. It was found that the modified electrode exhibits potent and persistent electrocatalytic properties toward NADH oxidation in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0) with a diminution of the overpotential of about 450 mV compared to the process at an unmodified electrode. The electrocatalytic current increases linearly with NADH concentration in the range tested from 0.05 to 1.0 mM. The apparent charge transfer rate constant and transfer coefficient for electron transfer between the electrode surface and immobilized CFA were calculated as 11.2 s−1 and 0.43, respectively. The heterogeneous rate constant for oxidation of NADH at the CFA-modified electrode surface was also determined and found to be about 3 × 103 M−1 s−1. Finally, the diffusion coefficient of NADH was calculated as 3.24 × 10−6 cm2 s−1 for the experimental conditions, using chronoamperometric results.

    Early immunologic correlates of HIV protection can be identified from computational analysis of complex multivariate T-cell flow cytometry assays (2012)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2012-03-31
    Description: Motivation: Polychromatic flow cytometry (PFC), has enormous power as a tool to dissect complex immune responses (such as those observed in HIV disease) at a single cell level. However, analysis tools are severely lacking. Although high-throughput systems allow rapid data collection from large cohorts, manual data analysis can take months. Moreover, identification of cell populations can be subjective and analysts rarely examine the entirety of the multidimensional dataset (focusing instead on a limited number of subsets, the biology of which has usually already been well-described). Thus, the value of PFC as a discovery tool is largely wasted. Results: To address this problem, we developed a computational approach that automatically reveals all possible cell subsets. From tens of thousands of subsets, those that correlate strongly with clinical outcome are selected and grouped. Within each group, markers that have minimal relevance to the biological outcome are removed, thereby distilling the complex dataset into the simplest, most clinically relevant subsets. This allows complex information from PFC studies to be translated into clinical or resource-poor settings, where multiparametric analysis is less feasible. We demonstrate the utility of this approach in a large ( n =466), retrospective, 14-parameter PFC study of early HIV infection, where we identify three T-cell subsets that strongly predict progression to AIDS (only one of which was identified by an initial manual analysis).

    Exact Optimum Design of Segmented Thermoelectric Generators (2016)
    Hindawi
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-04-12
    Description: A considerable difference between experimental and theoretical results has been observed in the studies of segmented thermoelectric generators (STEGs). Because of simplicity, the approximate methods are widely used for design and optimization of the STEGs. This study is focused on employment of exact method for design and optimization of STEGs and comparison of exact and approximate results. Thus, using new highly efficient thermoelectric materials, four STEGs are proposed to operate in the temperature range of 300 to 1300 kelvins. The proposed STEGs are optimally designed to achieve maximum efficiency. Design and performance characteristics of the optimized generators including maximum conversion efficiency and length of elements are calculated through both exact and approximate methods. The comparison indicates that the approximate method can cause a difference up to 20% in calculation of some design characteristics despite its appropriate results in efficiency calculation. The results also show that the maximum theoretical efficiency of 23.08% is achievable using the new proposed STEGs. Compatibility factor of the selected materials for the proposed STEGs is also calculated using both exact and approximate methods. The comparison indicates a negligible difference in calculation of compatibility factor, despite the considerable difference in calculation of reduced efficiency (temperature independence efficiency).
