We experimentally demonstrate improved intra-channel nonlinearity tolerance of the root M-shaped pulse (RMP) with respect to the root raised cosine (RRC) pulse in spectrally efficient 128 Gbit/s PDM-16QAM coherent transmission systems. In addition we evaluate the impact of dispersion map and fiber dispersion parameter on the intra-channel nonlinearity tolerance of the RRC pulse and the RMP via ...

Drawing on the emerging area of workplace sustainability, this study sought to measure effects multimodal physical and cognitive fitness training sustaining mental health job readiness via impacts subjective burnout, wellbeing, resilience in a military cohort. Volunteer participants were block randomised into either standard 4-week resilient mind program (RMP) intervention or an RMP combined wi...

The effects of Range Management Plans (RMP) on soil and vegetationcharacteristics were studied in Eshtehard rangelands at Alborz province. The parameters ofyield, canopy cover, range condition and trend, bulk density, Organic Matter (OM%),Nitrogen (N), Phosphorous (P) and Potassium (K) were estimated on soil samples in sitesof Ghenzel Cheshmeh as RMP and sanctum of Rahmanyeh village. The data w...

Treatment guidance for non-multidrug-resistant (MDR) rifampicin-resistant (RMP-R) tuberculosis (TB) is variable. We aimed to undertake a systematic review and meta-analysis of the randomised controlled trial (RCT) data behind such guidelines to identify the most efficacious treatment regimens. Ovid MEDLINE, the Web of Science and EMBASE were mined using search terms for TB, drug therapy and RCT...

The nucleotide composition of the light (L-) and heavy (H-) strands of animal mitochondrial genomes is known to exhibit strand-biased compositional asymmetry (SCA). One of the possibilities is the existence of a replication-associated mutational pressure (RMP) that may introduce characteristic nucleotide changes among mitochondrial genomes of different animal lineages. Here, we discuss the infl...

About this Report This publication represents a new style of reporting for the San Francisco Estuary Regional Monitoring Program (RMP). The fundamental purpose of the RMP is to provide information to improve the management of the San Francisco Estuary and protect what we value about the Estuary (SFEI 1998a). The intent of The Pulse of the Estuary (hereafter referred to as The Pulse) is to help ...

The plasma response to resonant magnetic perturbation RMP and nonresonant perturbation fields is computed within a linear, full toroidal, single-fluid resistive magnetohydrodynamic framework. The response of resonant harmonics depends sensitively on the plasma resistivity and on the toroidal rotation. The response of nonresonant harmonics is not sensitive to most of the plasma parameters, excep...

A possible mechanism of edge localized modes (ELMs) mitigation by resonant magnetic perturbations (RMPs) is proposed based on the results of nonlinear resistive magnetohydrodynamic modeling using the jorek code, realistic JET-like plasma parameters and an RMP spectrum of JET error-field correction coils (EFCC) with a main toroidal number n=2 were used in the simulations. Without RMPs, a large E...

Rats implanted with RG-2 gliomas were administered i.v. RMP-7 and [†̃4C]carboplatin. Changes in the permeabifity of the blood-brain barrier to carboplatin were determined using quantitative autoradiography. i.v. infusions of RMP-7 induced an increase in the permeability of the vascu lar barrier within the tumor to carboplatin. Additionally, permeability of brain tissue proximal to, but clearly...

Nucleotide changes in catalase peroxidase (Kat G) gene and gene encoding the beta subunit of RNA polymerase (rpo B), responsible for isoniazid and rifampicin drug resistance were determined in the clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis by PCR-RFLP, Line probe assay and DNA sequencing. PCR-RFLP test was performed by HapII cleavage of an amplified fragment of Kat G gene to detect the tra...
