Abstract:
SummaryPlasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), a member of the ser-pin gene family, is the primary inhibitor of urokinase-type and tissue-type PA s.PA I-1 plays an important role in the process of peripheral tissue remodeling and fibrinolysis through the regulation of PA activity. This serpin is also produced in brain tissues and may regulate the neural protease sequence in the central nervous system (CNS), as it does in peripheral tissues. In fact, PA I-1 mRNA is up-regulated in mouse brain after stroke.The serpin activity of PA I-1 helps to prevent tissue-type PA -induced neuron death.However, we have previously found that PAI-1 has a novel biological function in the CNS: the contribution to survival of neurites on neurons. In neuronally differentiated rat pheochromocytoma (PC-12) cells, a deficiency of PA I-1 in vitro caused a significant reduction in Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL mRNAs and an increase in Bcl-XS and Bax mRNAs.The change in the balance between mRNA expressions of the anti- and pro-apoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins promoted the apoptotic sequence: cas-pase-3 activation, cytochrome c release from mitochondria and DNA fragmentation. Our results indicate that PA I-1 has an antiapoptotic role in neurons.PAI-1 prevented the disintegration of the formed neuronal networks by maintaining or promoting neuroprotective signaling through the MAPK/ ERK pathway, suggesting that the neuroprotective effect of PAI-1 is independent of its action as a protease inhibitor. This review discusses the neuroprotective effects of PA I-1 in vitro, together with the relevant data from other laboratories. Special emphasis is placed on its action on PC-12 cells.

Abstract:
Musculoskeletal conditions become the leading contributor of the total years lived disability (YLD) by causing 21.3% of the YLDs, after mental and behavioral problems. Several musculoskeletal conditions give a disproportional impact on low back pain, one of the leading causes of disability. Lateral epicondylitis with a prevalence of 1-2%, commonly suffered by adults in their 30-65 years old. Epicondylitis was also suffered by a small population of athletes, such as professional tennis players (10% of epicondylitis population). The severe repetitive injuries that affect the individual daily activity also increase the daily health care cost. Osteoarthritis and tendinopathy often become the cause of pain and musculoskeletal disability. However, the etiology of pain in osteoarthritis is multifactorial. The incidence of osteoarthritis reaches 6% in 30 years old population and increases due to aging. Degenerative disease, the reduction of function or structure of the tissue or organ due to aging, encourages the pain specialist to perform a reliable pain management/therapy. Prolotherapy, especially dextrose prolotherapy, has become a promising technique by providing a safe degenerative therapy, easy to performed, and highly available in health facilities. Nowadays, it is necessary to pay more attention to causative-based treatment strategies than symptom-based treatment. A multidisciplinary team is also needed to provide appropriate treatment.

Abstract:
This research project addressed pain at parturition in pigs using three different approaches. Firstly, a survey study explored UK pig farmer and veterinarian attitudes to pain and the use of pain relief in order to understand the commercial context behind decisions relating to pain and its management. Secondly, an observational study was conducted to investigate the use of behaviour to assess pain associated with the process of giving birth (or farrowing) in pigs. A final experimental study was used to investigate the administration of a pain relief drug post-farrowing to improve pig welfare and increase productivity. In a questionnaire to farmers and veterinarians, individuals were asked to identify the anti-inflammatory drugs they used or prescribed and how often for selected conditions in pigs. They were also asked to rate the painfulness of different conditions and indicate their level of agreement with statements about pain and the use of pain relief. Results showed anti-inflammatories were widely used, with high agreement that pigs recovered better when given these drugs. Farmers and vets gave similar scores for painful conditions but females and younger respondents scored higher for specific conditions. The results suggest that potential barriers to the increased use of pain relief include a lack of up to date knowledge and communication between farmers and vets about pain and how best to treat it. A preliminary investigation was conducted to identify novel behavioural measures to assess pain in sows over the periparturient period. A set of spontaneous putative pain behaviours were characterised and quantified, using observations of sows before, during and after farrowing. These potential behavioural pain indicators were rare or absent before farrowing and the highest levels were seen during farrowing. For the post-farrowing observations, levels were highest for the immediate post-farrowing period and remained higher than pre-farrowing values up to 24 hours after the last piglet was born. Positive correlations between behavioural variables measured during and after farrowing indicate the individual consistency in the expression of these behaviours. Putative pain behaviours, along with other measures of welfare and productivity were then used to test the benefits of administering the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug ketoprofen, compared with a saline placebo, 1.5 hours post farrowing in primiparous and multiparous sows. No clear treatment differences were observed for the sow welfare measures, including the putative behavioural indicators of pain. For primiparous sows treated with ketoprofen, fewer piglets died, but this could be due to an unexpected treatment difference in piglet birth weight, which is strongly linked with piglet mortality. Further research is needed to validate the spontaneous behaviours used in this study as indicators of pain in periparturient sows.

Abstract:
In the modern day, recognition and tracking of face or the iris is potentially one of the most powerful ways of differentiating between an authentic person and an imposter. Our method uses stereo vision to track the 3-Dimensional coordinates of a target equivalent to a person’s eyes and using a pan-tilt unit we target these areas for additional processing such as iris or facial imaging. One of the most important parts involved in tracking is the way the pan-tilt unit is calibrated. There have been techniques in the past where PTZ (Pan-tilt-zoom) digital camera has been used and calibrated using self calibration techniques involving a checker board calibration grid but the tracking error was found to be large in these techniques. We introduce a more accurate form of calibration of the pantilt unit using photogrammetric calibration technique and view the pan-tilt unit as an emulation of a Pinhole Lens Model to detect and track the target. The system is demonstrated on ideal targets.

Abstract:
In the context of current human diseases and conditions, chronic pain is among the most typical reasons for seeking medical attention and is seen in 20 to 50 percent of patients attending primary care (Bajwa Z. H., 2012). With those figures in hand, the medical specialty of pain is of increasing interest to the scientific community and other parties involved in the management of chronic diseases. In the practical sense, chronic pain patients usually have, as of now, regular check-up appointments with their pain specialist, where medication is modified or maintained depending on the frequency and intensity of the patient’s pain episodes. As a matter of fact, between appointments, patients are usually encouraged to write a comprehensive account of their pain episodes and their characteristics in the form of a pain diary. In such diary, they write the intensity of their pain in a relative scale from 1 to 10, the location of the pain in their body, and other relevant comments, namely medication side-effects or the activity they were performing when pain appeared. This set of data is then used by pain specialists to calibrate the patient’s medication and follow their treatment. Pain Diary, the project developed and described in the present document, seeks a more flexible, precise approach for patients to record their pain diaries. The project emphasizes on the interaction between the patient and an electronic pain diary, in the form of an application for the iOS platform. This document discusses the human-computer interaction analysis, usability tests, accessibility tests, and prototypes created to develop a comprehensive user-oriented  solution for patients of cancer and other chronic diseases. Finally, the paper will present a functional prototype  created for iOS, taking into account UX (user experience) design and interaction, as well as a RESTful back-end to consider in a future large scale implementation of the project.

Abstract:
The thesis examines the relationships between pain, stress and behaviour of the pig around parturition. This includes the effects of pregnancy and parturition on maternal nociception, and environmental restriction on stress physiology and behaviour. The main findings are: 1. Late pregnancy and parturition in the pig is associated with an endogenous analgesic system which is, at least in part, mediated via endogenous opioids. 2. Passivity and inactivity are major components of maternal behaviour in the pig and are suggested to be indicative of good maternal care in this species. The thesis provides evidence of an opioid mediation of maternal behaviour which could arise through several potential routes, namely: the action of the analgesic system, general sedation, the inhibition of oxytocin release. 3. A rise in plasma control, ACTH and β-endorphin concentrations were found in pre-parturient gilts housed in both straw bedded pens and conventional farrowing crates. However crates caused further stimulation of the HPA axis reflecting thwarting of nestbuilding behaviour in this restrictive environment. 4. The farrowing crate did not cause further HPA activity during the expulsive phase which may reflect the inactivity of the pig at this time. A rise in plasma cortisol was found as the expulsive phase progressed irrespective of environment however the thesis found that the expulsion of a piglet does not appear to play a major role in this. Overall the thesis has realised a better understanding of parturition in the pig by relating the physiology and behaviour of the pig at this time. The possibility of maternal pain influencing the progress of parturition and maternal behaviour is discussed in relation to possible mechanisms by which this may occur. The thesis has also highlighted welfare implications regarding the use of farrowing crates, and provides information which may be used when considering changes to housing for parturient pigs.

Abstract:
This study used a qualitative method to focus on the perspectives, beliefs and expectations of low back pain sufferers. The research was undertaken within a hospital based pain clinic. In recent years low back pain research has proliferated, and the epidemiological evidence suggests that back pain is an increasing problem. Much attention has been paid to the impact of low back pain on the population, and to the increasing cost in economic and health terms. Biomedical and psychological evidence abounds to shape acute and chronic management of low back pain, but there is a dearth of information about the viewpoint of those suffering pain. This study attempted to bring the understanding of the back pain sufferer to the fore. Issues of quality of life, functional ability and the impact of back pain on their lifestyle were explored, along with the influence of contextual factors in relation to how back pain sufferers perceived themselves and how others perceived them. A narrative method was utilized to illuminate the journey with pain. Nine interviews were conducted, and the interpretation and presentation of the narratives generated was influenced by Ricoeur’s interpretative theory. Thematic analysis revealed that doctorability, agency, control, separation or acceptance of the pain and the concept of future life were key features within the narratives. The analysis highlighted that for the majority in this study pain arrived uninvited following a traumatic accident or incident, and back pain became a chronic condition. It was always unwanted and initially it was unexpected as the usual script for pain is one of a transient incapacity followed by recovery. It was precisely this deviation from the norm that resulted in difficulties for the people suffering the pain. Biographical differences did not appear to be identifiable in the themes discerned in the stories, nor in the overall structure.

Full text
Abstract:
The LP-140 is a low pressure pulsed transversely excited CO2 laser Manufactured by PSI(1). The laser has a folded cavity construction and each am of the cavity contains four discharge sections. The eight cathodes are placed on the outer edges of the cavity arms so that they can share a single large wire grid anode. Eight additional electrodes each consisting of a potted array of resistively ballasted pins are located behind the grid anode directly opposite each of the cathodes. The sympathetic discharge used in the LP-140 relies on a preliminary discharge between the anode and these pin electrodes to preionise the main discharge volume. Each electrode pair has a discharge volume of 280 cm3. The discharge circuit is arranged such that each electrode pair has its own energy storage capacitors and pfn (fig. 1.) but all share a common thyratron and HV supply. The capacitors are charged to 9 kV. The de HV supply consists principally of a large HV step-up transformer with no regulation or adjustment of the output voltage possible without modification.

Full text
Abstract:
Certain nuclear power plants have “Rev B” reactor vessel upper internals guide tube support pins, commonly referred to as split pins, made from material with properties similar to Alloy 600 and known to be susceptible to primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC). This paper describes a rigorous probabilistic methodology for evaluating the economics of a preemptive replacement of these split pins, and describes an application at four of Exelon Generation’s nuclear plants. The method uses Bayesian statistical reliability modeling to estimate a Weibull time-to-failure prediction model using limited historical failures, and a Westinghouse proactive aging management simulation tool called PAM to select a split pin replacement date that would maximize the net present value of cash flow to a plant. Also in this study is a sensitivity evaluation of the impact of zinc addition on split pin replacement timing. Plant decisions made based in part on results derived from applying this approach are noted.

Full text
Abstract:
The intramedullary canal presence of a stemmed prosthetic component can be expected to change the distribution of stress from the joint loading to the adjacent skeleton. The reconstructed skeletal stiffening that results for relatively rigid prosthetic components can result in periprosthetic stress shielding. The abrupt change in reconstruction stiffness that can occur at the implant stem terminus can be associated with periprosthetic pain. A stem end “clothes pin” slot, intended to make a stem end more flexible, produces a substantially asymmetric and abrupt alteration of stem stiffness. The present work is directed to analyzing ways that the structural stiffness of the terminus region of a prosthetic stem can be controlled to provide a symmetrical transitional region of controllable load transfer to the surrounding bone. It is hypothesized that through implant design, prosthesis-to-bone interface pressure and periprosthetic bone stress levels at a prosthetic stem terminus can be reduced and that this will be associated with a reduced occurrence and severity of “end of stem pain” in a variety of prosthetic applications.

Abstract:
Background: Chronic pain has become a leading public health concern with roughly 20% of Americans currently living with chronic pain. Individuals living with chronic pain are more likely to report lower quality of life, additional comorbidity, and increased medical expenditures than individuals without pain. Many individuals have initiated cannabis use to manage their pain as an alternative to opioid use. However, studies examining associations between cannabis use and pain intensity rarely include the frequency of cannabis. Aim: Our study aim was to address this scientific gap by elucidating the frequency of cannabis use and its association with pain intensity in an adult sample from across the United States. Methods: In a cross-sectional study, we surveyed N=2,206 adults using three sampling approaches, a national panel, a Florida panel, and a community-engaged sample. Participants completed surveys including pain and substance use. Pain intensity was measured using the Pain Intensity Number Scale (PINS, 0-10 scale) by asking participants to rate their current pain and least and worst in the past 24 hours. Average Pain Intensity (API) was the mean of the aforementioned PINS scores. Frequency of cannabis use was measured by asking individuals to indicate any past 30 day use and to indicate how often they currently use cannabis: once a month, more than once a month but less than weekly, 1 to 6 days a week, or every day. Bivariate and multiple linear regressions were utilized to identify associations between pain intensity, cannabis use, and sociodemographic factors. Results: Our sample was majority female (54.1%), non-Hispanic White (63.1%), and 45.9 ± 17.60 (SD) years of age. Participants reported an API score of 1.50 ± 2.49. For the 35.3% reporting pain greater than 0, the API score was 4.26 ± 2.40. Of the responding participants (n=600), 52% reported they never used cannabis and 25% indicated current cannabis use; with 9.0% of our sample indicating use once a month, 5.7% indicating use more than once a month but less than weekly, 4.0% reporting use 1 to 6 days a week, and 6.1% reporting using every day. Sociodemographic factors including race/ethnicity, education, and employment were associated with pain intensity at the bivariate level. Substance use factors including frequency of cannabis use and alcohol use were also associated with pain intensity at the bivariate level. After controlling for sociodemographic and substance use factors, using cannabis once a month (β=1.879), more than once a month but less than weekly (β=0.981), 1 to 6 days a week (β=1.830), and every day (β=1.491) were associated with API (p<.001). Additionally, having a disability (β=1.965) was associated with API (p≤.001). Discussion: We found above average pain intensity in this sample and about 48% of respondents were using cannabis. Increased frequency of cannabis use was statistically associated with higher average pain intensity after controlling for sociodemographic and substance use factors. As individuals continue to use cannabis, researchers should continue to assess frequency of cannabis use within the context of pain.

Abstract:
A C++ procedure has been developed for the design and optimization of Fast Reactor (FR) cores. It couples the ERANOS based EQL3D procedure developed at PSI for FR equilibrium fuel cycle analysis with a dedicated MATLAB script that evaluates the thermal-hydraulic characteristics of the reactor core. It is conceived to investigate reactors with both standard pins and annular pins. The procedure accepts as input the physical properties of the system, as well as a set of target core parameters presently consisting of core power, maximum fuel burnup, multiplication factor, inner pin diameter (for annular pins) or maximum pressure losses (for standard pins), and core height. It gives as a result a core design fulfilling these design objectives and meeting the constraints on maximum fuel and clad temperatures. In case of annular pins, it also equalizes the temperature rise inside and outside of the core average pin. The procedure considers the possibility of two-zone cores and adjusts the fuel composition in the two zones to achieve an optimal radial power distribution. Finally, it can evaluate safety parameters and fuel cycle characteristics both at beginning-of-life and at equilibrium. As a test case, the procedure has been used for the pre-conceptual design of a sub-critical Gas Fast Reactor core employing inert-matrix sphere-pac fuel and annular pins with SiC cladding.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of upper body quadrant pain among ultrasonographists and to evaluate the association between individual ergonomics, musculoskeletal disorders, and occurrence of neck pain. A hundred and ten Belgian and Dutch male and female hospital ultrasonographists were consecutively enrolled in the study. Data on work-related ergonomic and musculoskeletal disorders were collected with an electronic inquiry, including questions about ergonomics, symptoms and work related factors. Subjects with the screen on their left had significantly more neck pain. Depending on the work space, high-low tables increased the chance on developing neck pain. A screen on eye level caused less neck. Employees with a fixed working space were less susceptible to arm pain. The prevalence of arm pain was significantly higher on the vascular department compared to the radiology, urology and gynecology departments. In the prevention of upper limb pain in ultrasonographists, attention should be paid to the work environment in general, and to the more specific aspects of the ultrasound workstation layout. Primary ergonomic prevention could help the ultrasonographist to work painless during his medical tasks.

Abstract:
The present study investigates a new class of in-wall mesh cooling techniques intended to produce significant wetted surface area heat transfer enhancement products, hAAwetted, with low to moderate pressure losses. Cooling networks (meshes) are presented using round pins and rounded diamond shaped pins with H/Dp ratios of 0.2 and S/Dp ratios of 1.5, as well as less dense rounded diamond pins of smaller diameter with H/Dp of 0.3 and S/Dp of 2.14. These geometries differ substantially from conventional pin fin arrays in which H/Dp ≥ 1 and S/Dp ratios are typically about 2.5. The objective of mesh cooling is to provide highly effective cooling inside component walls while maintaining very thin outer protective skin thickness. Special attention is paid to the combination of techniques including pin meshes, turbulators, and concavity arrays that can provide multiple design solutions for heat transfer and pressure loss goals. Average channel wetted-area heat transfer capabilities exceeding 3 times that of smooth channels have been demonstrated using actual surface area enhancements of no more than 20%. This cooling capability increase is also realized with a large decrease in channel material solidity, up to 30%, compared to conventional pin fin arrays. Friction factor enhancements in the range of 15 to 25 times that of a smooth channel turbulent flow accompany this performance. This investigation represents the first of its kind to demonstrate feasible in-wall cooling methods that may be realized in practice for investment cast turbine blades.
