Small ruminant lentiviruses (SRLV) are members of the Retrovirus family comprising the closely related Visna/Maedi Virus (VMV) and the Caprine Arthritis-Encephalitis Virus (CAEV), which infect sheep and goats. Both infect cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage and cause lifelong infections. Infection by VMV and CAEV can lead to Visna/Maedi (VM) and Caprine Arthritis-Encephalitis (CAE) respect...

 Sorting is the process of arranging the data into a meaningful order so that we can analyze it more effectively. Sorting is a key requirement in many applications like digital signal processing, scientific computing, network processing etc. This paper presents an area efficient technique for designing high throughput and low latency sorting units. Two popular parallel sorting algorithms are u...

Coronary artery ectasia (CAE) is an uncommon anomaly, usually found in 1.2-2% of patients undergoing coronary angiography, defined as a segment of the coronary artery that has a diameter of more than 1.5 times the normal adjacent segments. Atherosclerosis is considered as the cause of half of the CAE cases. We herein present a 65-year-old Asian male with past medical history of Kawasaki disease...

Idiopathic Absence Epilepsies (IAE) are complex syndromes with a strong genetic component. Childhood absence Epilepsy (CAE) is a common form of IAE, affecting children between the age of 3 and 8 years old and that has been associated with mutations in the GABAA receptor. Particularly, a R43Q mutation on the 2 subunit, which impairs GABAA receptor function, has been clearly linked to CAE in ani...

This paper focuses on a strategic improving quality of “high quality assurance CAE (computer aided engineering) analysis model” to be used in development design. The authors present a case of transaxle oil seal leakage in automotive drive trains, a technical reliability problem that generates bottlenecks for auto manufacturers around the world. The application of this model is used to analyze c...

CAMeL is an environment for the simulation of mechatronical devices developed at the Mechatronic Laboratory Paderborn. In this paper we present a parallelization of this toolset using a general environment for con guring and coordinating coarse grained parallel applications on workstation clusters. This environment, named CoPA, is based on PVM and allows an automatic distribution of functional ...

Commentary The study by Dlugos et al. adds to the important information on impaired attention, measured with the Continuous Performance task (CPT), in childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) that has emanated from the large multisite treatment study CAE by Glauser and colleagues (1–3). About 36% of CAE have impaired attention with errors of omission rather than of commission before treatment that impr...

This paper deals with the optimization analysis of Steering Rack. Steering Rack Bending CAE analysis technology is indispensable for developing and mass-producing the Steering Gear assembly. By using Finite Element method, a stress analysis has been carried out. Steering Rack Deflection and Bending stresses are found. Various CAE iterations shows rack weight reduction by keeping Stress constant...

AIM The present study was designed to investigate mean platelet volume (MPV) values in coronary artery ectasia (CAE) patients in comparison with individuals with coronary artery disease and normal coronary angiograms. MATERIAL AND METHODS Patients with stable angina pectoris and scheduled for angiography were included in the study. Those with isolated coronary ectasia were evaluated in the co...
