We report on the experimental and theoretical studies of cooling field (HFC) and temperature (T) dependent exchange bias (EB) in FexAu1-x/Fe19Ni81 spin glass (SG)/ferromagnet (FM) bilayers. When x varies from 8% to 14% in the FexAu1-x SG alloys, with increasing T, a sign-changeable exchange bias field (HE) together with a unimodal distribution of coercivity (HC) are observed. Significantly, inc...

Epidermal lineage commitment occurs when multipotent stem cells are specified to three lineages: the epidermis, the hair follicle, and the sebaceous gland (SG). How and when a lineage becomes specified remains unknown. Here, we report the existence of a population of unipotent progenitor cells that reside in the SG and express the transcriptional repressor Blimp1. Using cell-culture studies and...

A STEWART GOUGH (SG) manipulator, where the platform is similar to the base, is called equiform SG manipulator. It is well known that these SG manipulators with planar platform and planar base only have self-motions, if they are architecturally singular; i.e. the anchor points are located on a conic section. Therefore this study focuses on the non-planar case. We prove that an equiform SG manip...

OBJECTIVE Finger extensor tenosynovitis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may lead to partial and eventually to complete tendon tears. The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic value of sonography (SG) and/or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to visualize partial tendon tears. METHODS Twenty-one RA patients with finger extensor tenosynovitis for more than 12 months underwent SG, MRI a...

Increasing concerns regarding carbon emissions and climate change are prompting a shift toward the use of sustainable materials in construction industry. Engineered timber products gaining attention industry due to advancements lamination techniques adhesives as well renewable characteristics wood. Bond properties play significant role engineered products. In Australia, Radiata Pine (RP, softwo...

We could observe the endoluminal stent graft (SG) following thoracic endovascular aneurysm repair (TEVAR) by a coronary artery angioscope and establish intravascular visualization of SG. The patient was a 70-year-old woman with the distal aortic arch aneurysm and the descending aortic aneurysm, and debranching TEVAR were performed. After 12 months follow up, urgent hospitalization was required ...

80 nonorganic psychiatric patients dichotomized on both manifest anxiety-ego strength (MA-Es) level and sex were given a visual spatial stimulus generalization (SG) task within 4 days after admission and 9-15 days later. 2 SG measures and 2 measures of response latency were recorded at each time. Results showed that SG was not related to race, age, education, or admission status. Only time of t...

The effect of orally administered sun ginseng (SG), which is a ginseng processed by steaming, was examined in adenine-induced chronic renal failure rat. SG significantly decreased both blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine levels, indicating an improvement of renal function. Also, SG significantly increased the urinary excretion of both urea and creatinine. Furthermore it lowered the blood p...

The stability of the random field Ising model (RFIM) against spin glass (SG) fluctuations, as investigated by Mézard and Young, is naturally expressed via Legendre transforms, stability being then associated with the non-negativeness of eigenvalues of the inverse of a generalized SG susceptibility matrix. It is found that the signal for the occurrence of the SG transition will manifest itself i...

Stress granules (SG) are translationally silent sites of RNA triage induced by environmental stresses including viral infection. Here we show that HIV-1 Gag blocks SG assembly irrespective of eIF2α phosphorylation and even when SG assembly is forced by overexpression of Ras-GAP SH3 domain-binding protein (G3BP1) or TIAR. The overexposed loops in the amino-terminal capsid domain of Gag and host ...
