    E-HARA - Erpenbach Human-AI Reasoning Architecture

    No full text
    E-HARA proposes a structural hypothesis architecture for analysing how human and AI reasoning processes may coexist within a shared cognitive environment. The framework distinguishes between the Human Cognitive Frame, the AI Reasoning Frame, a Shared Reasoning Space, and diverse integration patterns. It introduces hypotheses concerning representational depth, emergence, boundary dynamics, and reasoning modes. E-HARA remains non-final and provides conceptual foundations for interdisciplinary research on hybrid reasoning systems. License Notice This project is published under All rights reserved.

    Kenya Hara – wystawa jako nośnik wiedzy

    No full text
    This article describes a fragment of the work of Kenya Hara, a contemporary Japanese designer who focuses on the issue of communication and perceives design as universal wisdom accumulated by society. In the wide range of his projects, a special place is occupied by exhibitions, which he has been involved in since the beginning of his artistic activity. In the article, the author mentions the most important exhibition projects in which Hara combines various threads from the world of design, industry, technology and, above all, science. Most of Hara’s curatorial projects cover various spheres of his activity, from creating concepts, through selecting artists, designing visual identification, writing texts in the catalog, and preparing the visual design of the exhibition. An important aspect of Hara’s exhibition projects is engaging viewers by appealing to memory. Technology has given great opportunities in visuals and audible expression, but he argues that his exhibitions that involve physically going to the venue to experience the exhibits are richer media events, ones that can engage all senses. The most important value of his projects is enabling recipients to discover the unique values of Japanese culture. Each exhibition is a vehicle of knowledge relating to both history and the future and constitutes an important message as part of Hara’s philosophical design concept.This article describes a fragment of the work of Kenya Hara, a contemporary Japanese designer who focuses on the issue of communication and perceives design as universal wisdom accumulated by society.

    Relying on two volumes of Who’s Who published by ex-Malayan Chinese who were forced to come to China between 1948 and 1963, this author intends to investigate (1 ) where these deportees were born / originated and in which province they settled, (2) their occupations in Malaya and in China, (3) their political affiliations / activities both in Malaya and in China, (4) their educational background both in Malaya and China, (5) their condition in China, and (6) correlations among some of these factors

    Chemical specificity in short-chain fatty acids and their analogues in increasing osmotic fragility in rat erythrocytes in vitro.

    No full text
    We examined the role of the chemical specificity of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and their derivatives in increasing osmotic fragility (OF) in rat red blood cells (RBCs). Except for formic acid, normal SCFAs with 2 to 8 carbons increased the OF in rat RBCs with increasing number of hydrocarbons in a dose-dependent manner. Replacement of the carboxylic group with sulfonic group inhibited, but did not abolish, the SCFA-mediated increase in OF. Introduction of another carboxylic group (dicarboxylic acids) completely abolished the SCFA-mediated increase in OF. Transformation of the hydrocarbon chains in SCFAs from straight to branched or cyclic chains affected the degree of the OF-increasing effect. Introduction of double- or triple-carbon bonds to the hydrocarbon chain in parent SCFAs did not affect the increase in OF. Both hydrophilic (carboxylic group) and hydrophobic elements (hydrocarbons) at opposite sides of a molecule were required to affect the RBC membrane, and the size and form of hydrophobic element were important factors in determining the SCFA-mediated increase in OF. The hydrocarbon chains probably enter the plasma membrane, with the hydrophilic carboxylic base remaining outside of the membrane, and interact with phospholipid in cell membrane and disturb the structure of lipid layer resulting in the increase in OF in the rat RBCs

    Urinary Bladder Metastasis of Prostate Cancer : A Case Report

    No full text
    A 62-year-old man was referred to our outpatient clinic because of his elevated serum prostatic specific antigen level. The transrectal ultrasonography guided biopsy of the prostate revealed prostate cancer. Computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and bone scintigraphy showed multiple metastases to his bones and lymph nodes. The MRI incidentally revealed a solitary tumor at the right lateral wall of the urinary bladder. Transurethral resection of the bladder tumor was performed, and histopathological examination showed the bladder tumor composed of not urothelial carcinoma but metastatic adenocarcinoma from prostate cancer
