This paper shows an efficient adaptation of a polarization diversity optical front-end, commonly used in high-speed fiber-optic communications, in a coherent Doppler lidar (CDL). The adopted architecture can be employed in a modified transceiver design for an all-fiber micropulsed coherent Doppler wind lidar where the performance limits of such systems are pushed beyond the conventionally avail...

Introduction. The objective is to report a case of Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS) diagnosed by detailed observations using three-dimensional sonography. Case Report. A 33-year-old healthy multipara was referred to our hospital at 34-week gestation after severe fetal growth restriction, congenital heart anomaly, and antebrachium abnormality were diagnosed during the third trimester. Further s...

Cohesin pathway makes the necessar y arrangements C ohesin proteins arrange chromatin within the nucleus, and defects in this organizational role may underlie two human diseases, suggest Gard et al. The cohesin complex and its accessory factors are best known for holding sister chro-matids together before their separation in mitosis, but the cohesin pathway may have other functions , too. Corne...

Coherent Doppler Lidars (CDLs), operating at an eye-safe 1.5-micron wavelength, have found promising applications in the optimization of wind-power production. To meet the wind-energy sector's impending demand for more cost-efficient industrial sensors, we have focused on the development of continuous-wave CDL systems using compact, inexpensive semiconductor laser (SL) sources. As a preliminary...

Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS) is an uncommon multiple congenital anomaly with unknown cause and recurrent risk and may be the result of an inheritance metabolic error. In classical form of the syndrome there is a recognizable facial appearance at birth although in children with mild disease this may be less obvious at birth but become more noticeable over the first three years of life. In t...

The class I receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) HER2 is an oncoprotein that is frequently involved in the pathogenesis of tumors of epithelial origin. Here we report mRNA expression in peripheral blood and bone marrow cells from healthy donors in hematopoietic cell lines and leukemic blasts from patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML), chronic lymphoblasti...
