µ-ARGUS (4.2) user's manual-3-Preface This is the users manual of version 4.1 of µ-ARGUS, a software package to assist in producing safe microdata. The package has been developed under Windows 2000 and runs under Windows versions from Windows 2000 and later. This version is an update of the final version of µ-ARGUS that has been produced in the fifth Framework CASC (Computational Aspects of Sta...

A haemorrhagic protein toxin (SA-HT) was isolated and purified from the spine extract of the Indian venomous butterfish, S. argus Linn, by two step ion exchange chromatography. The toxin was homogeneous in native and SDS-PAGE gel. SDS-molecular weight of the toxin was found to be 18.1 +/- 0.09 kDa. SA-HT produced severe haemorrhage on stomach wall but devoid of cutaneous haemorrhage. UV, EDTA, ...

Post-prostatectomy incontinence (PPI) is a main complication of radical prostatectomy. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of the Argus male sling (Argus) with that of artificial urinary sphincters (AUS) in patients with moderate PPI. A total of 33 moderate PPI patients underwent AUS or Argus implantation from January 2009 to June 2013 (13 AUS, 20 Argus). We defined...

In recent years Statistics Netherlands has developed a prototype version of a software package, ARGUS, to protect microdata files against statistical disclosure. In 1995 the present prototype version of ARGUS, namely version 1.1, has been released. In this paper both the rules, based on checking low-dimensional combinations of values of so-called identifying variables, and the techniques, globa...

Argus simulates a radar-like target classification task. It was developed to support research in measuring and modeling cognitive work load. Argus is used in both single-subject and team modes. However, the Argus system is more than just a simulated task environment. Argus features flexible experimenter control over cognitive work load, as well as extensive data collection and data playback fac...

OBJECTIVE To compare the results of two slings, Argus T® and Advance®, for the treatment of postprostatectomy urinary incontinence (PPUI). MATERIAL AND METHODS From December 2010 to December 2011, 22 patients with PPUI were randomized as follows: 11 (mean age 62.09(±5.30)) underwent treatment with Advance® and 11 (mean age 62.55(±8.54)) with Argus T®. All patients were evaluated preoperativel...
