The author examined the effects of human responses to automation alerts and nonalerts. Previous research has shown that automation false alarms and misses have differential effects on human trust (i.e., automation false alarms tend to affect operator compliance, whereas automation misses tend to affect operator reliance). Participants performed a simulated combat task, whereby they examined aer...

Inflammation is the body's normal self-protection mechanism to eliminate pathogens and resist pathogen invasion. The excessive inflammatory response may lead to inflammatory lesions. The mechanisms accounting for inflammation remain hazy. miRNAs have been proposed to have crucial effects on inflammation. In the present study, we reported that lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulation increased the e...

We report on a campaign of X-ray and soft γ-ray observations of the black hole candidate H 1743-322 (also named IGR J17464-3213), performed with the RXTE, INTEGRAL and Swift satellites. The source was observed during a short outburst between 2008 October 03 and 2008 November 16. The evolution of the hardness-intensity diagram throughout the outburst is peculiar, in that it does not follow the c...

Inorganic compounds in biomass, often referred to as ash, are known to be problematic in the thermochemical conversion of biomass to bio-oil or syngas and, ultimately, hydrocarbon fuels because they negatively influence reaction pathways, contribute to fouling and corrosion, poison catalysts, and impact waste streams. The most common ash-analysis methods, such as inductively coupled plasma-opti...

BACKGROUND β-blockers prevent cardiac arrhythmias in patients with chronic heart failure and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction, including ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF). We hypothesized that prevention of ventricular arrhythmias by the β-blocker/sympatholytic agent bucindolol is influenced by genetic variation in adrenergic receptors. METHODS AND RESULTS Fro...

INTEGRAL made 3 observations in 2003 April of the black hole candidate H 1743−322 during the rising part, and close to the maximum, of an outburst. H 1743−322 was previously observed in outburst in 1977–1978. The source is located in a crowded region of the sky (l = 357, b = −2) and at least 18 sources are clearly detected in the field of view of the ISGRI gamma-ray imager during a 277 ks expos...
