A Highway Intelligent Space System (HISS) is proposed to study vehicle environment perception in this paper. The nature of HISS is that a space sensors system using laser, ultrasonic or radar sensors are installed in a highway environment and communication technology is used to realize the information exchange between the HISS server and vehicles, which provides vehicles with the surrounding ro...

Meal-induced sensitization to the dynamic actions of insulin results from the peripheral actions of a hormone released by the liver (hepatic insulin sensitizing substance or HISS). Absence of meal-induced insulin sensitization results in the pathologies associated with cardiometabolic risk. Using three protocols that have previously demonstrated HISS metabolic action, we tested the hypothesis t...

Control of formation of the histidyl-transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) synthetase with an increased K(m) for histidine was studied in a hisS mutant of Salmonella typhimurium. Histidine restriction of both the hisS and hisS(+) strains resulted in a derepression of synthesis of histidyl-tRNA synthetase. When grown in a concentration less than the K(m) (100 mug/ml) of l-histidine, the hisS mutant m...

The current state of the HISS (hepatic insulin sensitizing substance) hypothesis is briefly outlined. In the postmeal absorptive state, 50-60% of the glucose storage action of insulin is accounted for by the actions of HISS released from the liver and acting on skeletal muscle. Hepatic parasympathetic nerves permissively regulate the ability of a pulse of insulin to release HISS, thereby potent...

introduction: hospital information systems (hiss) have positive effects on patients' treatment process and organizational function. therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the quality of services provided by such systems. the aim of this study was to assess and compare hiss in isfahan hospitals based on the delone and mclean model adjusted. methods: this was an applied, analytical-descriptive st...

We present a random forests machine learning model for prediction of plasmaspheric hiss spectral classes from the Van Allen Probes dataset. The provides accurate obtained by self organizing map (SOM) unsupervised classification technique. high predictive skill is largely determined distinct and different locations given class (“no hiss”, “regular “low-frequency hiss”) in (MLAT, MLT, L) coordina...

Strong variations of intensity and cutoff frequency of the auroral hiss were observed by INTERBALL-2 and POLAR satellites at high altitudes, poleward from the auroral oval. The hiss intensifications are correlated with the auroral activations during substorms and/or pseudo-breakups. The low cutoff frequency of auroral hiss increases with the distance between the aurora and the satellite footpri...

Health information systems (HISs) hold the promise to transform health care; however, their adoption is challenged. We have developed the Clinical Adoption Meta-Model (CAMM) to help describe processes and possible challenges with clinical adoption. The CAMM, developed through an action research study to evaluate a provincial HIS, is a temporal model with four dimensions: availability, use, beha...

With aging, there is a decrease in parasympathetic nervous activity. Since the hepatic parasympathetic nerves (HPNs) are essential to the disposal of nutrients, through the hepatic insulin sensitizing substance (HISS), we tested the hypothesis that aging leads to a lowering of postprandial glucose disposal by a decrease of the HISS-dependent component of insulin action. Insulin sensitivity was ...

User acceptance is a precondition for successful implementation of hospital information systems (HISs). Increasing investment in information technology by healthcare organisations internationally has made user acceptance an important issue in technology implementation and management. Despite the increased focus on hospital information systems, there continues to be user resistance. The present ...
