This study investigates the law, distribution characteristics, and changing trend of coordinated development China’s aging industry regional economy, as well factors which influence degree coordination between economic on provincial level. In doing so, we construct a comprehensive evaluation index system economy development, introduce an entropy weight coupling model, measure level two systems ...

Design work and design knowledge in Information Systems (IS) is important for both research and practice. Yet there has been comparatively little critical attention paid to the problem of specifying design theory so that it can be communicated, justified, and developed cumulatively. In this essay we focus on the structural components or anatomy of design theories in IS as a special class of the...

A 47 year old male patient visited our hospital with the chief complaint of deterioration of the visual acuity in the left eye. The fundus examination revealed thick hard exudates, multiple aneurysms and telangiectasias of the retinal vessels in the posterior pole. Fluorescein angiography demonstrated massive leakage over an area of the aneurysms. Optical coherence tomography (Stratus OCT; Zeis...

Ram Vanam M.S., Indiana University, December 2004. Electrostatic modeling of protein aggregation. Research Advisor: Paul L. Dubin Electrostatic modeling was done with Delphi of insight II to explain and predict protein aggregation, measured here for β-lactoglobulin and insulin using turbidimetry and stopped flow spectrophotometry. The initial rate of aggregation of β-Lactoglobulin was studied b...

The ezrin-radixin-moesin (ERM) family of proteins crosslink actin filaments and integral membrane proteins. Radixin (encoded by Rdx) is the dominant ERM protein in the liver of wildtype mice and is concentrated at bile canalicular membranes (BCMs). Here we show that Rdx( / ) mice are normal at birth, but their serum concentrations of conjugated bilirubin begin to increase gradually around 4 wee...

Recurrent jaundice due to intrahepatic cholestasis is reported most often in adults. Some varieties are familial and are associated with failure of excretion of conjugated bilirubin by the liver cell. The original descriptions of these types given by Rotor, Manahan, and Florentin (1948) and Dubin and Johnson (1954) concerned patients with a benign recurrent jaundice. The diseases described by t...

PURPOSE. To determine the anatomic variations in the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness distribution and the relationship between these anatomic variations and other ocular variables. METHODS. A complete ophthalmic examination, including measurement of visual acuity, refraction, and axial length, was performed on 269 subjects with no ophthalmic abnormalities. Further, fund...

We have evaluated refractive index-matched anomalous defraction (RIMAD) (Dubin SB, Clin Chem 1988;34:938-43) as a potential method for assessment of fetal lung maturity (FLM). This method determines the total light scattered by the surfactant-containing lamellar bodies by subtraction of the A650 from amniotic fluid diluted in glycerol from that of amniotic fluid diluted in distilled water. It i...
