Effect of annealing temperature on the electrical transport properties of CaRuO3-delta thin films directly deposited on the Si substrate
No full textWe investigate the effect of annealing temperature on the preferentially (110)-oriented CaRuO3-delta, (CRO) thin films directly prepared on Si(100) substrate by rf magnetron sputtering. Crystalline quality and electrical transport properties of the CRO thin films were modified by post-annealing treatment. It was obvious that 700 degrees C post-annealing brought about excellent metallic characteristics with the elevation of carrier concentration and mobility. From this result, we suggested that enhanced (110) orientation, and the ratio of chemical composition Ru4+/Ca2+ ion were responsible for the transport properties of CRO thin film.

5,7-dihydroxy-3,4,6-trimethoxyflavone inhibits the inflammatory effects induced by Bacteroides fragilis enterotoxin via dissociating the complex of heat shock protein 90 and I kappa B alpha and I kappa B kinase-gamma in intestinal epithelial cell culture
No full textEnterotoxin produced by enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis (BFT) has been associated with mucosal inflammation and diarrhoeal diseases. In this study, the anti-inflammatory molecular mechanism of 5,7-dihydroxy-3,4,6-trimethoxyflavone (eupatilin) was characterized in an HT-29 intestinal epithelial cell line stimulated with BFT. Pre-treatment of HT-29 cells with eupatilin decreased the production significantly of both interleukin (IL)-8 and prostaglandin E(2) induced by BFT in a dose-dependent manner. BFT-activated nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappa B) signals in HT-29 cells and pretreatment with eupatilin suppressed NF-kappa B activation that resulted in the significant inhibition of IL-8 and cyclo-oxygenase-2 expression. BFT-induced phosphorylation of both I kappa B alpha and I kappa B kinase (IKK) signals was prevented in eupatilin-pretreated HT-29 cells. Transfection of siRNA for IKK-alpha and IKK-beta decreased the production of IL-8 and prostaglandin E(2); however, the transfection of IKK-beta siRNA showed a more significant reduction of BFT-induced I kappa B alpha phosphorylation compared with that of IKK-alpha siRNA. In addition, herbimycin A, a specific inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), decreased the BFT-induced activation of IKK and NF-kappa B, suggesting that Hsp90 is associated with a pathway of IKK-NF-kappa B-IL-8/cyclo-oxygenase-2 gene signalling. Furthermore, eupatilin dissociated the complex between Hsp90 and IKK-gamma in BFT-stimulated HT-29 cells. These results suggest that eupatilin can suppress the NF-kappa B signalling pathway by targeting the Hsp90-IKK-gamma complex in intestinal epithelial cells and may attenuate BFT-induced inflammatory responses.J.

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Patterns of Regional Failure after Pancreaticoduodenectomy in Patients with Distal Extrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma: Suggestion of the Clinical Target Volume for Elective Nodal Irradiation
No full textAims: To evaluate the pattern of locoregional recurrence (LRR) after pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with distal extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (DEHC) and to identify an optimal target volume for elective nodal irradiation. Materials and methods: We analysed the medical records of DEHC patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and had LRR between 1991 and 2015. Among these patients, 30 received adjuvant chemotherapy alone, 14 underwent radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy and 28 received no treatment. After reviewing computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging scans, the sites of LRR were identified and mapped to the corresponding locations on the representative computed tomography images. Results: In total, 136 LRRs were identified in 72 patients from four institutions. Local recurrences were observed at 44 sites (32.4%): tumour bed in 15, choledochojejunostomy in 25 and pancreaticojejunostomy in four. Regional recurrences were observed at 92 sites (67.6%); the most common site was the portal vein area (n = 18), followed by the para-aortic area (n = 17). Based on the mapped plots of regional recurrence, a clinical target volume covering 90% of regional recurrences was generated using the appropriate margin for the vascular structures of the portal vein, celiac axis, superior mesenteric artery, left gastric artery and aorta. Conclusions: Given the pattern of LRR, we showed that the nodal clinical target volume based on vascular structures could appropriately cover high-risk regions of nodal involvement. These findings may help physicians construct a target volume in postoperative radiotherapy for DEHC patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy. (C) 2021 The Royal College of Radiologists.

PACS: 03.67.Hk, 03.65.Ud, 42.50.-pThe four Bell-type entangled coherent states, \alpha]\-alpha]+/-alpha]\alpha] and \alpha]\alpha]+/-\-alpha]\alpha], can be discriminated with a high probability using only linear optical means, as long as \alpha\ is not too small. Based on this observation, we propose a simple scheme to almost completely teleport a superposed coherent state. The nonunitary transformation that is required to complete the teleportation can be achieved by embedding the receiver's field state in a larger Hilbert space consisting of the field and a single atom and performing a unitary transformation on this Hilbert space.This research was supported by Korea Research Foundation Grant No. KRF-2002-070-C00029.We wish to thank Dr. J.

Search for direct CP violation in D0→h−h+ modes using semileptonic B decays
No full textA search for direct CP violation in D0 → h-h+ (where h = K or π) is presented using data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb-1 collected in 2011 by LHCb in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The analysis uses D0 mesons produced in inclusive semileptonic b-hadron decays to the D0μX final state, where the charge of the accompanying muon is used to tag the flavour of the D0 meson. The difference in the CP-violating asymmetries between the two decay channels is measured to be ΔACP = ACP(K-K+) - ACP(π-π+) = (0.49± 0.30 (stat) ± 0.14 (syst))%
