چکیده
A stumbling point for many learning to fly fish is being able to fly cast well enough to ‘present’ a fly to a feeding fish. Even among more skilled fly fishers, learning to fly cast better is often a bottleneck towards advancement in the sport. Fly casting instruction today relies on the visual inspection of the fly casting stroke and the resulting ‘loop’ of fly line. These qualitative visual cues help fly casting instructors spot the strengths and weakness in a student’s casting stroke. We introduce two novel technologies for fly casting instruction that result in a quantitative understanding of the fly casting stroke. In particular, we describe a novel robot that is able to replicate standard overhead casts. This achievement is made possible by measuring the casting stroke using a small (MEMS) rate gyro to record the angular velocity of the fly rod in the casting plane. The robot is then programmed to replicate this angular velocity history. Potential uses of this robot include an objective means to assess fly rod, fly line and leader designs, as well as new methods for fly casting instruction.

Metastatic Meningioma Presenting as Cancer of Unknown Primary
We describe a case of anaplastic meningioma presenting in an extracranial osseous location, initially diagnosed as cancer of unknown primary. Although anaplastic meningioma comprise 3% of all meningiomas, this subtype is more likely to be associated with metastases. The increased degree of dedifferentiation in anaplastic meningioma makes diagnosis difficult, especially if characteristic imaging...

متن کاملCorrection: Correction: H. pylori CagL-Y58/E59 Prime Higher Integrin α5β1 in Adverse pH Condition to Enhance Hypochlorhydria Vicious Cycle for Gastric Carcinogenesis
BACKGROUND/AIMS H. pylori CagL amino acid polymorphisms such as Y58/E59 can increase integrin α5β1 expression and gastric cancer risk. Hypochlorhydria during chronic H. pylori infection promotes gastric carcinogenesis. The study test whether CagL-Y58/E59 isolates may regulate integrin α5β1 to translocate CagA via the type IV secretory system even under adverse pH conditions, and whether the int...
متن کاملHelicobacter pylori CagL Y58/E59 Mutation Turns-Off Type IV Secretion-Dependent Delivery of CagA into Host Cells
The type IV secretion system (T4SS) is a major virulence determinant of the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori. The CagL protein is a specialized adhesin of the corresponding T4SS pilus, which establishes initial contact with the integrin β1 receptor on host target cells. Recent studies proposed that Y58 and E59 amino acid polymorphisms in CagL increase the virulence of H. pylori strains by e...
