Road irregularities are a source of structure-borne noise in a car cabin. An active suspension using an Hinfinity robust feedback controller is designed to reduce this vibration-induced noise. To define the control law on this suspension, a quarter-car suspension is first modeled through its resonance modes. Frequency responses are extracted from experimental measurements which are then curve-fitted to obtain the nominal model of the suspension and its parametric uncertainty. The vibration-induced noise in the frequency range 60-250 Hz is then reduced using robust feedback controllers. An Hinfinity controller and two mu-synthesis controllers are designed and compared. Simulation of these controllers using Simulink result in a reduction in vibration at resonance peaks of up to 31 dB.

Les récepteurs nucléaires humains PXR (Pregnane X Receptor, NR1I2) et CAR (Constitutive Androstane Receptor, NR1I3) modulent l'expression de plusieurs familles de gènes impliquées dans des voies de détoxification de l'organisme. Ainsi, des agonistes affins et spécifiques de ces deux récepteurs pourraient être utilisés pour protéger l’organisme des effets néfastes dus à l’accumulation d’agents toxiques endogènes et exogènes. Par ailleurs, des antagonistes de PXR et CAR permettraient de traiter certains cancers ou d’éviter des interactions médicamenteuses. Ce projet a donc consisté à mettre en place une stratégie allant de l’identification de ces ligands par une méthode de conception rationnelle basée sur la structure 3D de PXR et CAR, à leur caractérisation biologique, voire à leur optimisation moléculaire pour améliorer leur activité. Ce travail a ainsi permis l’identification d’un agoniste et de 9 antagonistes pour CAR. Pour PXR, un agoniste doté d’une forte activité a été identifié.

Risk management in company AT CAR, s.r.o. with focus on its branch Brno is the main topic of this thesis. As for the risk management itself, the most important tasks are identification, analysis and reducing the possible risks. These processes are described and discussed in the theoretical part of the thesis, while it also introduces all important terms related to this topic. In the analytical part, the risks are identified using appropriate methods such as SLEPTE analysis, Porter’s Five Forces and 7S model. The risks identified are thereafter evaluated using the scoring method. In the last part, recommendations and measures for reducing the risk are presented.

For controller design, design of experiments, and other dynamic simulation purposes there is a need to be able to predict the dynamic response and joint reaction forces of a quarter-car suspension. This need is addressed by this study through development and system identification of both a linear and a non-linear multibody dynamics McPherson strut quarter-car suspension model.
Both models are developed using a method customary to multibody dynamics so that the same numerical integrator can be used to compare their respective performances. This method involves using the Lagrange multiplier form of the constrained equations of motion to assemble a set of differential algebraic equations that characterize each modelâ s dynamic response. The response of these models to a band-limited random tire displacement time array is then simulated using a Hilber-Hughes-Taylor integrator.
The models are constructed to match the dynamic response of a state-of-the-art quarter-car test rig that was designed, constructed, and installed at the Institute for Advanced Learning and Research (IALR) for the Performance Engineering Research Lab (PERL). Attached to the experimental quarter-car rig was the front left McPherson strut suspension from a 2004 Porsche 996 Grand American Cup GS Class race car. This quarter-car rig facilitated acquisition of the experimental reference data to which the simulated data is compared.
After developing these models their optimal parameters are obtained by performing system identification. The performance of both models using their respective optimal parameters is presented and discussed in the context of the basic linearity of the experimental suspension.
Additionally, a method for estimating the loads applied to the experimental quarter-car rig bearings is developed. Finally, conclusions and recommendations for future research and applications are presented.Master of Science

This report presents a method for estimating the presence and duration of preceding and lead vehicle in front of a motorcycle using an object detection algorithm guided by radar data. The video and radar data were collected as part of a large transportation project. The data are recorded by the ego vehicle during a trip while in a naturalistic research study. The goal is to validate objects detected by radar using vision, to identify moving preceding vehicles and the lead vehicle. The proposed approach takes advantage of radar data in locating the vehicles and other targets and then validates the targets as vehicles using Dual-Tree Branch-and-Bound (Kokkinos, 2011) object detection algorithm. Localization, detection and tracking took 0.0385 seconds per frame on average. Precision and recall of lead vehicle detection is 98.61% and 90.53% respectively.
The algorithm presents a comprehensive approach to localize target vehicles in video. The radar object coordinates are mapped on the video frame using perspective projection map- ping. Then persistent radar objects are determined by analyzing their trajectory on video frames. When a radar object appears for three consecutive frames, its called a persistent object. A region of interest (ROI) around the persistent radar object is cropped from the frame, and passed to the object detection algorithm to determine if the persistent object is a car. Once a car is detected the validation of the radar object is complete. We track the detected car in the following frames and refresh the detection after every fourteen frames. The car detection algorithm runs whenever a new persistent radar object is introduced. After validating radar objects, at each timestamp, the lead vehicle is determined using radar object's forward and lateral distance. The time from detecting a lead vehicle to the time when the vehicle disappears or another vehicle becomes lead vehicle, is recorded to get the epochs of following driving mode for that lead vehicle. Finally, the detection result is integrated with MATLAB lane detection system to make a complete system for lead vehicle detection and tracking.
The video of interest has 240x720 resolution and approximately 15 frames per second. The car detection algorithm takes 0.1960 seconds on average to detect one car in a machine with Windows operating system and 4GB RAM. But as the detection algorithm is not run for each frame it saves time. Since no annotated motorcycle video dataset is publicly available, two videos of 52 seconds and 26 seconds were manually annotated to test the performance of the approach. The current approach works almost at real time. The algorithm has been tested and results have been reported on 1 video.Master of Science

CAR (Constitutive Androstane Receptor, NR1I3) et PXR (Pregnane X Receptor, NR1I2) sont deux récepteurs nucléaires dédiés à la reconna issance et à l'élimination de molécules lipophiles potentiellement toxiques pour l'organisme. Ces facteurs de transcription peuvent être activés par des ligands d'origines et de structures diverses (médicaments, polluants environnementaux, produits de l'alimentation et de phytothérapies). L'activation de ces récepteurs entraîne l'expression des gènes majeurs de la fonction de détoxication entéro-hépatique (CYP450, transférases, transporteurs) permettant l'élimination de ces toxiques. Dans ce travail, nous avons dans un premier temps 1) montré que CAR contrôle l'expression de Spot14, une protéine pro-lipogénique, et 2) nous avons identifié une nouvelle isoforme de PXR (PXR-small) codant uniquement pour le domaine de liaison des ligands de PXR. Nous avons pu déterminer les origines de transcription par 5'-RACE PCR et montrer que PXR-small représente environ 10% de l'ensemble des transcrits de PXR dans le tissu hépatique sain par une approche de PCR qua ntitative. Nous avons pu détecter sa présence par western-blot sur des extraits de protéines nucléaires issus de tissus hépatiques et de lignées cellulaires hépatiques. Par des expériences de gel retard, nous avons observé que cette nouvelle isoforme tronquée, qui ne code que pour le LBD de PXR, ne peut pas se lier à l'ADN. Des expériences de gènes rapporteurs suggèrent que cette isoforme se comporte comme un dominant négatif de PXR. Enfin, la présence d'un ilot CpG situé juste en amont de PXR-small suggère que cette nouvelle isoforme pourrait être régulée épigénétiquement par méthylation, notamment dans les cellules tumoralesCAR (Constitutive Androstane Receptor, NR1I3) and PXR (Pregnane X Receptor, NR1I2) are two nuclear receptors devoted to the recognition and elimination of lipohilic molecules potentially toxic to the body.These transcription factors can be activated by ligands of different origins and structures (drugs, environmental pollutants, food products and herbal medicine...). The activation of these receptors leads to the expression of major genes of the detoxification process (CYP450, transferases, transporters) leading to the elimination of these toxics. In this work, we 1) showed that Spot14, a pro-lipogenic protein, is a target gene of CAR, then 2) we identified a novel isoform of PXR (PXR-small), coding only the ligand binding domain of PXR. By using 5'-RACE PXR, we established the origins of transcription of PXR-small and by quantitative PCR we observed that PXR-small represents about 10% of all PXR transcripts in human liver. By using western blo t, we detect its presence on nuclear protein extracts from liver tissues and hepatic cell lines. In Electromobility shift essays experiments, we observed that PXR-small cannot bind to DNA, while reporter essay experiments suggest that this isoform acts as a dominant negative of PXR. Finally, the presence of a CpG island just upstream of PXR-small suggests that this novel isoform might be regulated epigenetically by methylation, more particularly in tumor cells

Active transport contributes to increased daily physical activity (PA). Car ownership is associated with less frequent active transport and less PA. For business car ownership this relation is unknown. Therefore, we explored whether business car owners and their adult household members comply less with the Dutch moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) guideline and are more sedentary than private car owners and persons without a car.
From October 2011 to September 2012 questions about use and availability of cars in the household were included in the survey Injuries and Physical Activity in the Netherlands. Multiple linear regression was used to compare six mutual exclusive groups of ownership and availability of (business and/or private) cars in the household.
Business car owners complied less (15.8 percent points) with the MVPA guideline than the other respondents. They also reported 1.5 h more sitting time during workdays than the other respondents, but after adjusting for covariates, this difference was no longer significant.
We concluded that owners of a business car in the Netherlands are at higher risk of not complying with the MVPA guideline and tend to spend more hours sitting during workdays than other adults. Further research in this group, e.g. with objective instruments to measure physical activity and sedentary behavior, is recommended. Policy makers on transport and fiscal arrangements, employers, employees, occupational health professionals and car lease companies should be aware of this possible health risk.

The purpose of this study has two parts directed toward a common goal. First, a state-ofthe-art quarter-car test platform has been designed and constructed to offer increased testing flexibility at a reasonable cost not found commercially. With this new test rig completed, the second objective is a proof-of-concept evaluation of a well known adaptive control algorithm applied to this new quarter-car test rig for the purpose of replicating the dynamic suspension response, such as a response that was recorded during a road test. A successful application of this control algorithm on the quarter-car rig is the necessary first step toward its application on an 8-post test rig for a direct comparison to current practices.
Before developing a new test rig, the current state-of-the-art in quarter-car rigs was first evaluated as well as indoor vehicle testing in general. Based on these findings, a list of desired functional requirements was defined for this new design to achieve. The new test rig was built and evaluated to determine how these goals were met and what the next steps would be to improve the rig. The study then focused on evaluating control policies used for reproducing dynamic responses on vehicle road simulators such as 4- post and 7-post shaker rigs. A least-mean squares (LMS) adaptive algorithm is introduced and applied first in software using a linear two-mass quarter-car model, and then to the actual hardware-in-the-loop quarter-car rig.
The results of the study show that the resulting quarter-car test rig design is quite flexible in its ability to test a multitude of suspension designs and also its ability to accommodate new hardware in the future such as a body loaders. The study confirms that this particular implementation of the LMS algorithm is a viable option for replicating test vehicle response on an indoor quarter-car test rig. Thus, a future study to compare the use of this algorithm to the current industry standard batch processing method is possible.Master of Science

L’aléa moral est une source de distorsion économique. La prédiction classique dans un cadre simple est qu’une meilleure couverture conduit à un effort moindre. Cette thèse étudie dans quelle mesure cette prédiction est ou non vérifiée empiriquement dans des cadres plus complexes. Le premier chapitre s’intéresse aux absences pour raison de santé. La politique étudiée est le jour de carence pour arrêt maladie dans la fonction publique de l’Etat en France. Cette politique de remboursement moins généreuse a notamment pour but de réduire l’absentéisme. Elle conduit à une baisse de la prévalence des absences de courte durée. Mais elle conduit aussi à une hausse de la prévalence des absences de longue durée. En conséquence, la prévalence de l’ensemble des absences pour raison de santé reste inchangée. Les deux chapitres suivants s’intéressent aux systèmes de bonus-malus d’un assureur automobile irlandais. Le deuxième chapitre s’intéresse à l’introduction d’un état très protecteur : la protection à vie du bonus. Cette protection est octroyée automatiquement et gratuitement aux assurés sous des conditions restrictives d’historique de sinistre et d’ancienneté. Comparé à la situation dans laquelle cet état protecteur n’existe pas, le taux de sinistre des assurés protégés augmente, tandis que le taux de sinistre des agents non protégés diminue, dans l’espoir d’être récompensés par la protection. L’existence de la protection est à l’origine d’un transfert intertemporel. Les assurés renoncent à de l’utilité présente en exerçant un effort supérieur, afin d’être récompensés par la protection et de profiter d’une utilité future plus élevée due à un effort moindre. Le troisième chapitre étudie la réaction juste après que l’assuré est récompensé par la protection à vie du bonus. Le taux de sinistre augmente immédiatement, mais seulement quand la protection existe depuis quelque temps. Cela suggère que l'effet d'un changement incitatif dépend de sa nature, mais aussi de son contexteMoral hazard is a source of economic distortion. The classical prediction in a simple framework is that a better coverage leads to a lower effort. This thesis studies the extent to which this prediction is empirically verified in more complex settings. The first chapter focuses on health-related absences. The policy under study is the one-day waiting period for sick leave in the French central civil service. This less generous reimbursement policy notably aims at reducing absenteeism. It leads to a decrease in the prevalence of short-term absences. But it also leads to an increase in the prevalence of long-term absences. As a result, the prevalence of all health-related absences stay unchanged. The two following chapters focus on bonus-malus systems used by an Irish car insurer. The second chapter focuses of the introduction on a highly protecting state: the lifetime bonus protection. This protection is granted automatically and freely to insurees under restrictive conditions on past claims and seniority. Compared to the situation in which this protecting state does not exist, the claims rate of protected insurees increases, but the claims rate of unprotected insurees decreases, in the hope of being rewarded with the protection. The existence of the protection induces an intertemporal transfer. Insurees waive present utility by exerting more effort, so as to be rewarded with the protection and to enjoy more future utility due to lower future effort. The third chapter studies the reaction just after the insuree is rewarded with the lifetime bonus protection. The claims rate increases immediately, but only when the protection exists for some time. This suggests that the effect of an incentive change depends on its nature, but also on its context

Current systems for counting cars on parking lots usually use specialized equipment, such as barriers at the parking lot entrance. Usage of such equipment is not suitable for free or residential parking areas. However, even in these car parks, it can help keep track of their occupancy and other data. The system designed in this thesis uses the YOLOv4 model for visual detection of cars in photos. It then calculates an embedding vector for each vehicle, which is used to describe cars and compare whether the car has changed over time at the same parking spot. This information is stored in the database and used to calculate various statistical values like total cars count, average occupancy, or average stay time. These values can be retrieved using REST API or be viewed in the web application.

The importance of perceived quality within the automotive industry has been rapidly increasing these years. Since judgmentsconcerning perceived quality is a highly subjective process, eye-tracking technology is one of the best approaches to extractcustomers’ subconscious visual activity during interaction with the product. This thesis aims to find an appropriate solution forrepresenting 3D eye-tracking data for further improvements in the validity and verification efficiency of perceived qualityanalysis, attempting to answer the question:How can eye-tracking data be presented and integrated into 3D automobile design workflow as a material that allows designersto understand their customers better?In the study, a prototype system was built for car-interior inspection in the virtual reality (VR) showroom through an explorativeresearch process including investigations in the acquisition of gaze data in VR, classification of eye movement from thecollected gaze data, and the visualizations for the classified eye movements. The prototype system was then evaluated throughcomparisons between algorithms and feedbacks from the engineers who participated in the pilot study.As a result, a method combining I-VT (identification with velocity threshold) and DBSCAN (density-based spatial clusteringof application with noise) was implemented as the optimum algorithm for eye movement classification. A modified heat map,a cluster plot, a convex hull plot, together with textual information, were used to construct the complete visualization of theeye-tracking data. The prototype system has enabled car designers and engineers to examine both the customers’ and their ownvisual behavior in the 3D virtual showroom during a car inspection, followed by the extraction and visualization of the collectedgaze data. This paper presents the research process, including the introduction to relevant theory, the implementation of theprototype system, and its results. Eventually, strengths and weaknesses, as well as the future work in both the prototype solutionitself and potential experimental use cases, are discussed.Betydelsen av upplevd kvalitet inom bilindustrin har ökat kraftigt dessa år. Eftersom uppfattningar om upplevd kvalitet är en mycket subjektivt är ögonspårningsteknik en av de bästa metoderna för att extrahera kundernas undermedvetna visuella aktivitet under interaktion med produkten. Denna avhandling syftar till att hitta en lämplig lösning för att representera 3Dögonspårningsdata för ytterligare förbättringar av validitets- och verifieringseffektiviteten hos upplevd kvalitetsanalys, och försöker svara på frågan: Hur kan ögonspårningsdata presenteras och integreras i 3D-arbetsflödet för bildesign som ett material som gör det möjligt för designers att bättre förstå sina kunder? I studien byggdes ett prototypsystem för bilinteriörinspektion i showroomet för virtuell verklighet (VR) genom en explorativ forskningsprocess inklusive undersökningar i förvärv av blickdata i VR, klassificering av ögonrörelse från insamlad blicksdata och visualiseringar för de klassificerade ögonrörelserna. Prototypsystemet utvärderades sedan genom jämförelser mellan algoritmer och återkopplingar från ingenjörerna som deltog i pilotstudien. Följaktligen implementerades en metod som kombinerar I-VT (identifiering med hastighetströskel) och DBSCAN (densitetsbaserad spatial gruppering av applikation med brus) som den optimala algoritmen för ögonrörelseklassificering. En modifierad värmekarta, ett klusterdiagram, en konvex skrovdiagram, tillsammans med textinformation, användes för att konstruera den fullständiga visualiseringen av ögonspårningsdata. Prototypsystemet har gjort det möjligt för bilkonstruktörer och ingenjörer att undersöka både kundernas och deras visuella beteende i det virtuella 3D-utställningsrummet under en bilinspektion, följt av utvinning och visualisering av den insamlade blicken. Denna uppsats presenterar forskningsprocessen, inklusive introduktion till relevant teori, implementeringen av prototypsystemet och dess resultat. Så småningom diskuteras styrkor och svagheter, liksom det framtida arbetet i både prototyplösningen och potentiella experimentella användningsfall.

Hospital readmissions related to chronic heart failure (CHF) are costly, widespread, and often avoidable. Patient education that includes diagnosis, causes, medications, diet, exercise, and exacerbation warning signs has been shown to reduce the number of CHF readmissions. The purpose of this study was to use risk stratification to identify CHF patients at high risk for 30-day readmission. Once a high-risk CHF patient was identified, nursing interventions would be triggered to reduce readmissions and close the gaps in the continuum of care following acute care admission. Transitions of care theory was used as the framework for this project. The methodology had a quality improvement focus. The patient population consisted of high-risk CHF patients (n = 25) with NYHA classification of II-IV using the risk identification tool. Patients were identified using the tool, were followed for 30 days, and received nursing interventions to reduce the possibility of readmission. Only one of the identified patients was readmitted within 30 days for a diagnosis unrelated to CHF, resulting in no readmissions within this sub group. This study suggests that risk stratification can identify and direct resources to CHF patients, decreasing their likelihood for readmission. Nurse leaders can use standardized tools such as the risk identification tool, thereby reducing readmissions along with associated costs for readmissions.

Chan, Nelson Lap Shun. „IDENTIFICATION OF ACTIVITIES INVOLVED IN CAG/CTG REPEAT INSTABILITY“. UKnowledge, 2011. http://uknowledge.uky.edu/gradschool_diss/832.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
CAG/CTG repeat instability is associated with at least 14 neurological disorders, including Huntington’s disease and Myotonic dystrophy type 1. In vitro and in vivo studies have showed that CAG/CTG repeats form a stable hairpin that is believed to be the intermediate for repeat expansion and contraction.
Addition of extra DNA is essential for repeat expansion, so DNA synthesis is one of the keys for repeat expansion. In vivo studies reveal that 3’ CTG slippage with subsequent hairpin formation (henceforth called the 3’ CTG slippage hairpin) occurs during DNA synthesis. It is proposed that hairpin tolerance machinery is activated because prolonged stalling of DNA polymerase triggers severe DNA damage. As a means toward studying the hairpin-mediated expansion, we created a special hairpin substrate, mimicking the 3’ CTG slippage hairpin, to determine which polymerase promotes hairpin bypass. Our studies reveal polymerase β (pol β) is involved in the initial hairpin synthesis while polymerase δ (pol δ) is responsible for the resumption of DNA synthesis beyond the hairpin (extension step). Surprisingly, we also found that the pol δ can remove the short CTG hairpin by excision of the hairpin with its 3’ to 5’ exonuclease activity.
Besides repairing the hairpin directly, resolving the hairpin is an alternative pathway to maintain CAG/CTG repeat stability. With limited understanding of which human helicase is responsible for resolving CAG/CTG hairpins, we conducted a screening approach to identify the human helicase involved. Werner Syndrome Protein (WRN) induces the hairpin repair activity when (CTG)35 hairpin is formed on the template strand. Primer extension assay reveals that WRN stimulates pol δ synthesis on (CAG)35/(CTG)35 template and such induction was still found in the presence of accessory factors. Helicase assay confirms that WRN unwinds CTG hairpin structures.
Our studies provide a better understanding of how polymerases and helicases play a role in CAG/CTG repeat instability. Considering CAG/CTG repeat instability associated disorders are still incurable, our studies can provide several potential therapeutic targets for treating and/or preventing CAG/CTG repeat associated disorders.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
All eukaryotic cellular mRNAs (except for organelle mRNAs) are blocked at their 5$ sp prime$ end by the cap structure m$ sp7$GpppX (where X = any nucleotide). The cap structure plays a multifunctional role in both the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Two polypeptides of molecular mass of 20 and 115 kDa in HeLa nuclear extracts were shown to recognize and be crosslinked to the cap structure of eukaryotic mRNAs in a cap-dependent fashion. Their cap binding properties have been characterized, although their function in the nucleus is unknown. Previous studies have shown that cap function in the cytoplasm is mediated by eukaryotic initiation factors (eIF)-4A, -4B and -4F (termed cap binding proteins) which interact with the cap structure and are involved in 40S ribosomal subunit binding to mRNA during translation initiation. eIF-4A contains an ATP binding consensus sequence AXXGXGKT, consistent with its ATP binding and hydrolyzing activity. The amino proximal glycine and lysine were mutated to isoleucine and asparagine, respectively, in order to determine the importance of these amino acids in ATP binding as examined by UV-induced crosslinking to ($ alpha sp{32}$P) dATP. Mutation of the lysine, but not the glycine, abolished ($ alpha sp{32}$P) dATP crosslinking to eIF-4A. There has been indirect evidence to suggest that eIF-4A, -4B and -4F interact with the cap structure and use the energy derived from ATP hydrolysis to unwind 5$ sp prime$ proximal secondary structure in mRNA, to facilitate ribosome binding. Using a novel RNA unwinding assay, direct evidence was obtained indicating that combinations of eIF-4A and eIF-4B, or eIF-4F and eIF-4B, exhibit helicase activity. A unique aspect of this activity is that it functions in a bidirectional fashion. The data indicate that cap binding proteins in the cytoplasm, and possibly the nucleus, play a key role in the regulation of gene expression.

Depression is poorly recognised, under-assessed and under-treated in patients receiving palliative care for a life-limiting illness. There are barriers to assessment and diagnosis, and limited access to specialist clinicians who might assist in these complex assessments and who could provide options for treatment.
The three studies presented, using different research methodologies, and using both qualitative and quantitative analysis, seek to clarify these issues and to provide some solutions. A questionnaire was sent to all Palliative Care Services (PCS) in Australia. Questions included what part specialist psychological clinicians played in multi-disciplinary team meetings and in the treatment or coordination of patient care. Very few PCS used a valid screening instrument for psychological distress and very few had regular support from a psychiatrist or psychologist. Many did not have access to social work support.
There are two competing issues with regard to recognising and assessing depression in palliative populations. A rapid reliable screen that points to a likely problem would be useful, but also there is a need to understand something of the patient experience of depression.
In the second study, the one- and two-item screening instruments widely used in palliative care are examined and limitations that have been found in other settings are confirmed. A new novel screening tool is developed from this data and tested empirically. This algorithm is short, has good psychometric properties and is validated for an Australian palliative care population. Depending on the response pattern it is possible to identify that a particular patient has significant symptoms of depression by asking between one and four questions. Professional carer and patient acceptability of the questions is high.
The understanding of the experience and symptom profile of depression in Australian palliative care patients is addressed in the third study. Patients and family carers were recruited prospectively from palliative care and oncology ambulatory clinics of two teaching hospitals in an Australian capital city. The Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) was administered to the patient and the Collateral Source version of this instrument was asked of the carer. A subset of this sample completed the measures twice. The results using this 30-item scale were then compared with all the known previously published short versions of this scale. Two short forms met as many psychometric criteria as the longer forms. None of the versions of the GDS showed sufficiently high correlations between carer-completed and patient-completed forms. The frequency of symptoms was also assessed. Patients more frequently reported fatigue and anhedonia than depressed affect.
Despite many screening instruments being available for depression, their use is limited in Palliative Care Services. Although these studies have validated several options for Australian palliative care patients, the issues behind the low uptake rates for screening have not been resolved. The final chapter of this thesis constructs known and potential barriers into a logical structure and then offers some solutions to improve access to mental health professionals by considering service models and applying this theory to the problem of depression and its assessment in palliative care populations.

Interest in facial recognition has increased rapidly during the past decade. Increased computational power and huge amounts of available data have made facial recognition both possible and useful. Bio-metrical identification is one of the common applications for facial recognition.The population in Sweden is aging. Moreover, many people remain living on their own until old age. This introduces new challenges to society. How do we maintain the autonomy of elderly, and support their well-being despite of the challenges introduced by aging?This thesis presents a study of the potential of facial recognition in elderly care. In the thesis work a need for facial recognition system in elderly care is identified, a system architecture to meet the need is presented, the implementation process of such system’s prototype is described, and the feasibility of the prototype is evaluated.One of the results of the study indicates that there is a need in elderly care to help seniors to verify and identify caregivers who visit them. The study shows that a facial recognition system which presents information about the visiting caregiver to the elderly would support them in their daily life. The user interface of the developed prototype is feasible, but as it is now, the facial recognition part of the program is not accurate enough to be used in a real life context. Ways of improving the facial recognition functionality of such a system should be studied in future research.Intresset för ansiktsigenkänning har ökat snabbt under det senaste decenniet. Detta har gjort ansiktsigenkänning både möjlig och användbar. Biometri och identifiering är vanliga användningssätt för ansiktsigenkänning.Sverige befolkning åldras. De äldre fortsätter dessutom att i hög grad bo ensamma. Detta introducerar nya utmaningar för samhället. Hur kan vi bibehålla de äldres autonomi and stötta deras välmående, trots ålderns krämpor?Denna uppsats presenterar en studie om potentialen för att använda ansiktsigenkänning inom äldrevården. I arbetet identifieras behovet av ett ansiktsigenkänningssystem inom äldrevården, en systemarkitektur för att tillgodose detta behov presenteras, implementeringsprocessen av en prototyp av ett sådant system beskrivs samt genomförbarheten av ett sådant system utvärderas. Ett av studiens resultat indikerar att det finns ett behov inom äldreomsorgen att hjälpa seniorer att identifiera och verifiera den personal som besöker dem. Studien visar att ett ansiktsigenkänningssystem som visar information om besökande personal till seniorerna skulle kunna hjälpa dem i deras dagliga liv.Användargränssnittet i den utvecklade prototypen är användbar, men i dess nuvarande stadie är ansiktsigenkänningsdelen av programmet inte exakt nog för att kunna användas i verkligheten. Metoder för att förbättra ansiktsigenkänningsfunktionen i ett sådant system är ett uppslag för framtida forskning.

The Cal Poly Spacecraft Simulator is currently being developed for future testing and verifying theoretical control applications. This paper details the effort to balance the platform and remove undesired external torque from the system using System Identification technique developed by Patrick Healy. Since the relationship between the input and output of the system is linear, the least square method is proposed to identify the mass properties and location of center of mass of the system. The tests use four sine wave generators that are out of phase with different amplitudes as the inputs to excite various structural modes of the system. The outputs, angular rates of the platform, are measured by the newly implemented LN-200 Inertial Measurement Unit that helps reducing the measurement noise. Two test cases of 90o yaw rotations with the identified inertia were performed and validated against the computer simulation model; and the result shows that the test cases trajectories followed closely with the computer simulation model.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
College and university campuses present an ideal environment for smart card systems and offer one of the best opportunities for the early adoption of smart card technology in the United States. This study investigated the design, development, and implementation of a smart card system in the university environment, specifically Nova Southeastern University. Additionally, this dissertation investigation developed a paradigm for a university-wide smart card student identification system capable of providing multiple applications such as portable identity, secure access, and electronic purse function. This dissertation investigation employed a Modern Systems Development Life Cycle (MSDLC) methodology along with a case study strategy. Through case study analysis, in concert with an MSDLC methodology, this researcher determined how other colleges and universities implemented smart card systems and examined smart card capabilities and constraints.
The proposed model is based on an analysis of 23 colleges and universities currently utilizing smart card technology as part of their campus card systems. In this multiple-case study, the goal was to build a general paradigm that fits each of the individual cases, even though the cases varied in their details. This paradigm documents the development and implementation of a smart card system in a university environment. As noted in this paradigm, the campus card combines magnetic strip and smart chip technology and is a managed card system. In addition, the campus card system includes strategic partnerships with merchants, banks and long distance carriers and is implemented in a phased process. The findings and conclusions of this dissertation inquiry can be generalized to other academic institutions investigating the viability of a smart card system.
It is important to note that this paradigm is based on an investigation of the small number of colleges currently utilizing smart card technology. However, this paradigm represents key considerations that should be addressed by academic institutions contemplating the installation of a multi-application smart card student identification system. The paradigm is subject to change as a consequence of innovations in the technological domain. Therefore, the smart card information system paradigm should be regularly reviewed and revised to reflect technological advancements.

INTRODUCTION. The perinatal mortality rate is of concern worldwide. In South Africa at the time of the study, 2000, it was estimated to be of the order of 40/1000 live births. However in the setting in which this study took place, namely Tembisa, (Ekhuruleni, Gauteng, South Africa) it was said to be 50/1000 live births. One of the patient- related avoidable factors that has been found to be associated with perinatal and to a lesser extent maternal mortality, is either no, or late initiation of antenatal care. It has been found in an area which, is in many respects similar to Tembisa that 50% of women go the private general practitioner (PGP) for confirmation of pregnancy but, due of lack of funds, do not continue care with the private practitioner but, initiate care in the public sector and in a proportion of these women, this is at an advanced gestational age, making it difficult to prevent or intervene if there are problems in the pregnancy. As (PGP’s) are well placed in the district to render antenatal care, it was decided to perform a study looking at the effect of involving them in the antenatal care of women who presented to them for confirmation of pregnancy. METHODS Sixteen general practitioners agreed to be part of the study. The women who confirmed their pregnancy and who were going to deliver in Tembisa hospital were included in the study after giving written informed consent. They comprised the intervention group, the first antenatal visit was performed, the findings were recorded on the antenatal card which is used in the public sector and which was introduced to the private practitioner at 2 workshops held by the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Pretoria prior to the study. The woman was then to attend antenatal care with the private practitioner until delivery. The private general practitioners waived the costs normally associated with this care for the period of the study. The control group consisted of the women who confirmed their pregnancies in the public health care sector known as the public service health care workers group (PSHCWG). Data collection took place in the postnatal ward of Tembisa hospital over the period of 3 months. By means of systematic sampling, 100 cards from the PGPG and 100 cards from the PSHCWG were obtained. The 2 groups were compared with respect to gestational age at initiation of care and a modified version of the Quality Check for Antenatal Records Score (MQCARS), an audit score which, when applied to the antenatal card, gives a measure of the effectiveness of record keeping, and whether problems in the antenatal period are detected and appropriately managed. RESULTS. There was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of gestational age at initiation of care [PGPG mean gestational age -19.96 (5.86), PSHCW 25.96(5.98,) p<0.0001]. The majority of women in the PGPG initiated care in the 2nd trimester (79%) while the majority of the women in the PSHCWG (53%) confirmed their pregnancies in the third trimester. Six per cent of PGPG confirmed their pregnancies in the first trimester compared to the PSHCWG (3%). The two groups differ significantly with respect to the total MQCARS with the PGPG group performing better [(8.16 (1.55) vs. 16.34(2.58), p<0.0001]. The associated sub- scores are statistically different [History score 5.99 (0.10) vs.7 (0.96), Examination score 9.59(1.29) vs.8.03 (1.85) Interpretation Score 2.55(0.50) vs.2.80 (0.49)]. CONCLUSION Despite the limitations of the study it is felt that if private general practitioners in Tembisa are involved in the antenatal care of those women who confirm their pregnancies with them, there is a reduction in the gestational age at initiation of care. There is a small difference between the two groups in record keeping, detection and management of problems.Dissertation (MCur)--University of Pretoria, 2011.

Erythrozyten zählen zu den am häufigsten vorkommenden terminal differenzierten Zelltypen des menschlichen Körpers. Durchschnittlich werden täglich ca. 2 x 1011 von ihnen im Körper eines erwachsenen Menschen produziert. Die reifen Erythrozyten entstehen aus multipotenten hämatopoetischen Stammzellen, die über Stadien von erythroiden Vorläuferzellen, erst den sogenannten burst forming units-erythroid (BFU-E) und später den colony forming units-erythroid (CFU-E), zu kernlosen hämoglobinisierten Zellen differenzieren. Für die Untersuchung der molekularen Mechanismen der humanen Erythropoese ist die effektive in vitro Amplifizierung einer weitgehend homogenen Population der Vorläuferzellen der einzelnen Entwicklungsstadien notwendig. Den Wachstumsfaktoren stem cell factor (SCF) und Erythropoietin (Epo) fällt dabei eine entscheidende Rolle zu. Unter ihrem synergistischen Einfluß lassen sich Epo-abhängige Zellpopulationen, die sich aus BFU-E und CFU-E Typ Zellen zusammensetzen, ausreichend amplifizieren (Panzenböck et al., 1998). Freyssinier et al., 1999 beschrieb erstmals die Isolierung einer Epo-unabhängigen Population von Vorläuferzellen (CD36+ Vorläuferzellen), die ebenfalls erythroide Eigenschaften aufweisen.
Ziel dieser Arbeit war die Isolierung und Charakterisierung von Epo-unabhängigen Vorläuferzellen, die eine frühe erythroide und möglichst homogene Vorläuferzellpopulation darstellen und möglicherweise ein höheres Proliferationspotential aufweisen.
Für die Identifizierung der Epo-unabhängigen Vorläuferzellen, wurden CD34+ Zellen aus Nabelschnurblut aufgereinigt und unter serumfreien Kulturbedingungen und unter Zusatz der Wachstumsfaktoren SCF, Interleukin 3 (IL-3) und eines Fusionsproteins aus IL-6 und löslichem IL-6 Rezeptor (hyper-IL-6) über einen Zeitraum von 8 Tagen kultiviert. Anschließend wurde eine Population von E-cadherin positiven (E-cad+) Zellen über immunomagnetische Selektion isoliert. Diese neu gewonnenen Epo-unabhängigen E-cad+ Vorläuferzellen wurden hinsichtlich ihres proliferativen Potentials und ihrer Differenzierungseigenschaften mit SCF/Epo-Vorläuferzellen und CD36+ Vorläuferzellen verglichen. Von allen drei Zelltypen wurden des weiteren detailierte molekulargenetische Analysen mittels DNA microarray Technologie durchgeführt und die resultierenden Genexpressionsmuster miteinander verglichen.
Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die E-cad+ Vorläuferzellen eine frühe, weitgehend homogene Epo-unabhängige Population vom BFU-E Typ darstellen und durch entsprechende Änderungen der Kulturbedingungen zu einer in vitro Differenzierung angeregt werden können. Die E-cad+ Vorläuferzellen sind hinsichtlich ihres proliferativen Potentials, ihrer Reaktion auf verschiedene Wachstumsfaktoren, der Expression spezifischer Oberflächenmoleküle und ihrer Genexpressionsmuster mit SCF/Epo-Vorläuferzellen und CD36+ Vorläuferzellen vergleichbar.
Aufgrund der Identifizierung unterschiedlich exprimierter Gene zwischen den Epo-unabhängigen E-cad+ und den Epo-abhängigen SCF/Epo Vorläuferzellen konnten Kanditatengene wie Galectin-3, Cyclin D1, der Anti-Müllerian Hormonrezeptor, Prostata-Differenzierungsfaktor und insulin-like growth factor binding protein 4 identifiziert werden, die als potentielle Regulatoren der Erythropoese in Betracht kommen könnten. Es konnte weiterhin gezeigt werden, dass CD36+ Vorläuferzellen, die aus der selben Zellpopulation wie die E-cad+ Vorläuferzellen immunomagnetisch selektioniert wurden, eine heterogene Population darstellen, die sowohl E-cadherin positive als auch negative Zellen enthält. Die Analyse der Genexpressionsmuster zeigte, dass in den CD36+ Vorläuferzellen zwar auch die Expression erythroid-spezifischen Gene nachgewiesen werden kann, hier aber im Gegensatz zu den E-cad+ Vorläuferzellen auch für Megakaryozyten spezifische Gene stark exprimiert sind.
Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit tragen zu einem neuen Modell der in vivo Abläufe der Entwicklung roter Blutzellen bei und werden der weiteren Untersuchung der molekularen Mechanismen der Erythropoese dienen.
Red cell development in adult humans results in the mean daily production of 2x1011 erythrocytes. Mature hemoglobinized and enucleated erythrocytes develop from multipotent hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells through more committed progenitor cell types such as BFU-E and CFU-E. The studies on the molecular mechanisms of erythropoiesis in the human system require a sufficient number of purified erythroid progenitors of the different stages of erythropoiesis. Primary human erythroid progenitors are difficult to obtain as a homogenous population in sufficiently high cell numbers. Various culture conditions for the in vitro cell culture of primary human erythroid progenitors have been previously described. Mainly, the culture resulted in the generation of rather mature stages of Epo-dependent erythroid progenitors. In this study our efforts were directed towards the isolation and characterization of more early red cell progenitors that are Epo-independent.
To identify such progenitors, CD34+ cells were purified from cord blood and cultured under serum free conditions in the presence of the growth factors SCF, IL-3 and hyper-IL-6, referred to as SI2 culture conditions. By immunomagnetic bead selection of E-cadherin (E-cad) positive cells, E-cad+ progenitors were isolated. These Epo-independent E-cad+ progenitors have been amplified under SI2 conditions to large cell numbers. The E-cad+ progenitors were characterized for surface antigen expression by flow cytometry, response to growth factors in proliferation assay and for their differentiation potential into mature red cells. Additionally, the properties of E-cad+ progenitors were compared to those of two other erythroid progenitors: Epo-dependent progenitors described by Panzenböck et al. (referred to as SCF/Epo progenitor), and CD36+ progenitors described by Freyssinier et al. (Panzenböck et al., 1998; Freyssinier et al., 1999). Finally, the gene expression profile of E-cad+ progenitors was compared to the profiles of SCF/Epo progenitors and CD36+ progenitors using the DNA microarray technique.
Based on our studies we propose that Epo-independent E-cad+ progenitors are early stage, BFU-E like progenitors. They respond to Epo, despite the fact that they were generated in the absence of Epo, and can completely undergo erythroid differentiation. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the growth properties, the growth factor response and the surface marker expression of E-cad+ progenitors are similar to those of the SCF/Epo progenitors and the CD36+ progenitors. By the comparison of gene profiles, we were also able to demonstrate that the Epo-dependent and Epo-independent red cell progenitors are very similar. Analyzing the molecular differences between E-cad+ and SCF/Epo progenitors revealed several candidate genes such as galectin-3, cyclin D1, AMHR, PDF and IGFBP4, which are potential regulators involved in red cell development. We also demonstrate that the CD36+ progenitors, isolated by immunomagentic bead selection, are a heterogeneous progenitor population containing an E-cad+ and an E-cad- subpopulation. Based on their gene expression profile, CD36+ progenitors seem to exhibit both erythroid and megakaryocytic features.
These studies led to a more updated model of erythroid cell development that should pave the way for further studies on molecular mechanisms of erythropoiesis.

Rural children have less access to mental health services and more health disparities than their urban counterparts. Additionally, pediatricians rank psychosocial problems as a top presenting concern in child care visits, making recognition and appropriate management of behavioral health problems an important aspect to primary care. Few studies, however, have examined the prevalence of childhood psychosocial concerns in rural Appalachia. This paper describes the results of a larger study that examined prevalence rates of parent-reported psychosocial concerns and parental help-seeking behavior. Research Assistants recruited parents of children (N= 2672) scheduled to see physicians from 8 regional primary care clinics, to fill out a demographic/help-seeking questionnaire and the Pediatric Symptom Checklist (PSC), a parent- report screening measure to help identify psychosocial problems. Consistent with national averages, the current study showed overall, 13.70% of children had clinically significant PSC scores. Furthermore, 62.4% of parents reported speaking to their child’s physician about psychosocial concerns. Given the high prevalence rate of psychosocial dysfunction, lack of services in rural areas and a majority of parents seeking help from their child’s physician for emotional and behavioral concerns, the results of this study seem to support integration of mental health professionals into primary care, as a way to help identify and treat psychosocial dysfunction.

The purposes of this secondary study were to explore the case detection phenomena of elder abuse by determining the congruence between nurses' assessments of abuse and elders' self-reports of abuse; to identify factors that may account for differences between abusive situations and nonabusive situations; then to describe differences between abused elders correctly identified and abused elders incorrectly identified by nurses. Both quantitative and qualitative data were used. The theory of attribution directed this research. The conceptual framework consisted of four concepts: structural factors, relationship factors, elder factors, and caregiver factors. A descriptive-comparison design was used to address the research questions. The sample included 48 elder-caregiver dyads, of whom 24 were self-reported abused elders and 24 self-reported nonabused elders. Descriptive analysis was used, including chi-square and t-tests. Results indicated that the nurses' assessments of elder abuse and elders' self reports of abuse were congruent in only one-fifth (N = 5) of the abused cases (N = 24). The findings confirmed allegations that nurses have difficulty identifying elder abuse unless outright battering is observed. Five variables were significant between abused and nonabused elders, and 10 variables were significant between abused elders correctly identified by nurses and abused elders incorrectly identified by nurses.
