Brain metabolism, eeg, 2012 case study from madrid spainRalph Sherman
油
This case study from Madrid, Spain examines the radiological and electroencephalographic findings of a patient with mitochondrial Complex III deficiency. The EEG showed very disorganized and slowed background activity with persistent spike and multifocal spike-waves. Mitochondrial diseases are caused by alterations in intracellular energy production affecting tissues with high energy requirements like the nervous system. Symptoms include muscle weakness, hypotonia, psychomotor retardation and seizures. Diagnosis is based on clinical signs and evidence of mitochondrial dysfunction, with brain MRI and EEG findings helping to guide clinical suspicion.
Ralph Sherman served in the U.S. Army 238th Chemical Depot Company from 1945-1946, first stationed on San Jose Island in the Bay of Panama. He was discharged from the army in February 1946. As a chemical laboratory assistant, his duties included making quantitative tests of war gas concentrations, operating sampling machines, and working on computations from field tests. He maintained and repaired sampling instruments.

We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether theyre using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating and in many cases, surprising.
This 際際滷Share explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If youre marketing a tech brand or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience then these are insights you wont want to miss.
This slideshow presentation discusses using parametric quantification methods to study the sodium-potassium pump (Na+/K+-ATPase) in excitatory-inhibitory compensation. Specifically, it presents a least-action approach to model the pump's behavior and minimum energy requirements under varying neuronal activity levels in order to maintain ionic homeostasis.
Math formulas show that A equals B times C, and that the Planck Law and Eyring Equation are power functions that relate energy times time to watt/B units. These equations demonstrate relationships between action, energy over time, and power.
Deercroft is located in the Coquille River Valley in Myrtle Point, Oregon near the Oregon Coastal Range and Sugarloaf Mountain. The landscape features the Coquille River Valley and is near the Oregon Coastal Range mountains and Sugarloaf Mountain.
The document summarizes information from Ralph Sherman's slideshare posts. It describes the J.M. Richards laboratory which was established in 1958 in Grosse Point Park, Michigan and closed in 1973. It also mentions several of Sherman's projects involving biofeedback, transition state theory, hyperbaric oxygenation research, and linking concepts from physics and chemistry to biology and the brain.
A retreat was held at Deer Park in Myrtle Point, Oregon from February 20th to 23rd, 2018. The retreat center is located at the junction of four branches of the Coquille River, fifty miles from the Pacific Ocean. During the retreat, there was very rare heavy snowfall that left snow on the clear cut areas and coastal mountain range for three days after the snowstorm.
This document discusses the author's interactions with three individuals involved in biophysics research. It mentions meeting Hudson Hoagland in 1958 at the first Biophysics Society Meeting, receiving a paper from Henry Ballin the same year after requesting a copy, and meeting Werner Koella around 1980 after he had retired from Ciba.
The document discusses tilings of the Euclidean plane using regular polygons. It explains that the only regular polygons that can tile the plane are triangles, squares, and hexagons. For a tiling to be valid, the interior angles of the polygons must sum to 360 degrees at each vertex. Only triangles, squares, and hexagons satisfy this requirement. Therefore, these three shapes are the only regular polygons that can be used to tessellate or tile the entire plane without gaps or overlaps.
This document provides information about a retreat to be held at Deer Park on the summer solstice of 2017. The retreat is ecumenical in nature and centered around Saint Francis of Assisi.
This document discusses an article on gamma and beta bursts during working memory read-out and their suggested role in its volitional control. It also references a 1947 electronics textbook that discusses treating EEG data as coupled electronic circuits, with details on calculating the coupling coefficient k for electromagnetically coupled simple harmonic oscillators represented by impedances.
The document discusses the Eyring equation, which describes the rate of a chemical reaction as a function of temperature and Gibbs free energy. Specifically, it notes that the Eyring equation has the form of rate (A) equals a constant (B) divided by an exponential function (C) of Gibbs free energy and temperature. It further explains that the exponential function (C) is always greater than or equal to one, and that as it approaches one, the rate (A) approaches the constant (B).
The Prologue introduces himself and explains that the author wants to depict real human emotions and truths in the play rather than using masks to portray "false tears" like in older traditions. He tells the audience they will see love, hate, pain, rage and laughter portrayed as humans really experience them. He asks the audience to consider the souls and humanity of the actors rather than just their roles, as they too are flesh and blood people living in the same world. He concludes by saying he has explained the concept and now it is time to begin the performance.

PROTEIN DEGRADATION via ubiquitous pathawayKaviya Priya A
油
Protein degradation via ubiquitous pathway In general science, a ubiquitous pathway refers to a biochemical or metabolic pathway that is:
1. *Widely present*: Found in many different organisms, tissues, or cells.
2. *Conserved*: Remains relatively unchanged across different species or contexts.
Examples of ubiquitous pathways include:
1. *Glycolysis*: The process of breaking down glucose for energy, found in nearly all living organisms.
2. *Citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle)*: A key metabolic pathway involved in energy production, present in many cells.
3. *Pentose phosphate pathway*: A metabolic pathway involved in energy production and antioxidant defenses, found in many organisms.
These pathways are essential for life and have been conserved across evolution, highlighting their importance for cellular function and survival.

We investigate how localization precision and the depth of optical imaging affect host association and discuss the implications of such a low-luminosity dwarf galaxy. Unlike the other repeaters with low-luminosity hosts, FRB 20190208A has a modest Faraday rotation measure of a few tens of rad m2, and EVN plus Very Large Array observations reveal no associated compact persistent radio source. We also monitored FRB20190208A for 40.4hr over 2yr as part of the Extragalactic Coherent Light from Astrophysical Transients repeating FRB monitoring campaign on the Nan巽ay Radio Telescope and detected one burst. Our results demonstrate that, in some cases, the robust association of an FRB with a host galaxy will require both high localization precision and deep optical follow-up.

Beyond Point Masses. IV. Trans-Neptunian Object Altjira Is Likely a Hierarchi...S辿rgio Sacani
油
Dynamically studying trans-Neptunian object (TNO) binaries allows us to measure masses and orbits. Most of the known objects appear to have only two components, except (47171) Lempo, which is the single known hierarchical triple system with three similar-mass components. Though hundreds of TNOs have been imaged with high-resolution telescopes, no other hierarchical triples (or trinaries) have been found among solar system small bodies, even though they are predicted in planetesimal formation models such as gravitational collapse after the streaming instability. By going beyond the point-mass assumption and modeling TNO orbits as non-Keplerian, we open a new window into the shapes and spins of the components, including the possible presence of unresolved inner binaries. Here we present evidence for a new hierarchical triple, (148780) Altjira (2001 UQ18), based on non-Keplerian dynamical modeling of the two observed components. We incorporate two recent Hubble Space Telescope observations, leading to a 17 yr observational baseline. We present a new open-source Bayesian pointspread function fitting code called nPSF that provides precise relative astrometry and uncertainties for single images. Our non-Keplerian analysis measures a statistically significant (2.5) nonspherical shape for Altjira. The measured J2 is best explained as an unresolved inner binary, and an example hierarchical triple model gives the best fit to the observed astrometry. Using an updated non-Keplerian ephemeris (which is significantly different from the Keplerian predictions), we show that the predicted mutual event season for Altjira has already begun, with several excellent opportunities for observations through 2030.
Pig farming, pork farming, pig production or hog farming is the raising and breeding of domestic pigs as livestock, and is a branch of animal husbandry. Pigs are farmed principally for food (e.g. pork: bacon, ham, gammon) and skins.
Pigs are amenable to many different styles of farming: intensive commercial units, commercial free range enterprises, or extensive farming (being allowed to wander around a village, town or city, or tethered in a simple shelter or kept in a pen outside the owner's house). Historically, farm pigs were kept in small numbers and were closely associated with the residence of the owner, or in the same village or town.[1] They were valued as a source of meat and fat, and for their ability to convert inedible food into meat and manure, and were often fed household food waste when kept on a homestead.[2] Pigs have been farmed to dispose of municipal garbage on a large scale.[3]
All these forms of pig farm are in use today, though intensive farms are by far the most popular, due to their potential to raise a large amount of pigs in a very cost-efficient manner.[4] In developed nations, commercial farms house thousands of pigs in climate-controlled buildings.[5] Pigs are a popular form of livestock, with more than one billion pigs butchered each year worldwide, 100 million in the United States. The majority of pigs are used for human food, but also supply skin, fat and other materials for use in clothing, ingredients for processed foods,[6] cosmetics,[7] and medical use.[8]Pig farming has gained importance today. Pigs have inherited capacity to acclimatize with varying climatic conditions. Pigs cannot withstand high temperature climate.
Pigs are adjusted to varied rearing practices and consume different types of food (Omnivorous) to attain higher growth and meat production.
Pigs will attain 60-70kg body weight in 6-8months period.
Female pigs i.e., sows will come to heat at age of 8-9 months but avoid using male pigs (Boars) for breeding purpose until it attains one year of age.
Adult sows when bred during right time after attaining maturity will farrow 8-12 piglets in 112-118 days of gestation period (i.e., about 4 months of gestation). Feedefficiencyis to gain one Kg live weightfor every 2.75-3kg feed consumed (FCR: 1:2.75). There are many advantageous in pig rearing. Pork is available at a cheaper price with nutritious and highly palatable tasty meat of higher quality animal protein. Pig bones are used for producing bone meal and also used for purification of sugar in sugar industry.
The manure droppings and urine are good fertilizers which enhance the soil fertilityand improve grain production.
Pig hairs (Bristles) are used for making brushes and ropes, hooves are used for shirt button making and preparation of gum. Hence, pigs are called as multi utility domestic animals. Farmers can take up piggery farming and reduce their debt burden and improve their profits and livelihood.
