Gaps in the Glycation Gap Hypothesis [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry, 2011
Patients with diabetes mellitus are at risk for developing severe debilitating complications, including retinopathy, nephropathy, neuropathy, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Randomized trials have documented that lowering hemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c)4 concentrations significantly reduces the onset and rate of progression of microvascular complications (1,

Training Deep Networks with Synthetic Data: Bridging the Reality Gap by Domain Randomization [PDF]

2018 IEEE/CVF Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops (CVPRW), 2018
We present a system for training deep neural networks for object detection using synthetic images. To handle the variability in real-world data, the system relies upon the technique of domain randomization, in which the parameters of the simulator-such ...

Ge pMOSFETs with GeO x Passivation Formed by Ozone and Plasma Post Oxidation

Nanoscale Research Letters, 2019
A comparison study on electrical performance of Ge pMOSFETs with a GeO x passivation layer formed by ozone post oxidation (OPO) and plasma post oxidation (PPO) is performed. PPO and OPO were carried out on an Al2O3/n-Ge (001) substrate followed by a 5-nm

Bulk motion for ultrasonic-assisted microforming using Terfenol-D [PDF]

, 2010
Microforming requires high-precision motion due to scaling issues. A Terfenol-D transducer was considered to provide bulk motion for micro-extrusion. Because Terfenol-D cannot practically produce the necessary 2.5 mm displacement for this micro-extrusion

A Quality Improvement Initiative to Standardize Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia Prophylaxis in Pediatric Patients With Solid Tumors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with extracranial solid tumors (ST) receiving chemotherapy are at an increased risk for Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP). However, evidence guiding prophylaxis practices in this population is limited. A PJP‐related fatality at our institution highlighted inconsistent prescribing approaches and concerns about
