The purpose of this study was to compare hamstring musculo-articular stiffness (MAS) and lower extremity (LE) body composition in the dominant (D) and non-dominant (ND) legs of men and women, and then to examine relationships between MAS and LE body composition while controlling for sex. No differences in MAS or LE body composition were found between D and ND legs in either sex. Males demonstra...

With the advent of inexpensive 32 bit floating point digital signal processor’s availability in market, many computationally intensive algorithms such as Kalman filter becomes feasible to implement in real time. Dynamic simulation of a self excited DC motor using second order state variable model and implementation of Kalman Filter in a floating point DSP TMS320C6713 is presented in this paper ...

PURPOSE To evaluate tumor response, pharmacodynamic effects, and safety of a combination of lomeguatrib (LM), an O6-methylguanine DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) inactivator, and temozolomide (TMZ), TMZ alone, and LM/TMZ after disease progression on TMZ alone in patients with advanced melanoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS Patients with unresectable stage III or IV cutaneous melanoma who had no prior sy...

Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) of high grade gliomas (HGG) can lead to devastating disease courses. Understanding of risk factors for LM is important to identify patients at risk. We reviewed patient records and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of all patients with a first diagnosis of HGG who underwent surgery in our institution between 2008 and 2012. To assess the influence of potential risk ...

Lm-1 is an Igh-linked locus that codes for cell surface alloantigens (Lm-1 determinants) recognized by T lymphocytes. Using Lm-1 congenic strains and cold-target inhibition of anti-Lm-1-specific lysis by cytotoxic T lymphocytes, we were able to demonstrate differential expression of two distinct Lm-1 antigenic determinants. One determinant is expressed on the surface of T cell blasts, the other...
