AC_ICAP: A Flexible High Speed ICAP Controller by Luis Andres Cardona, Carles Ferrer

“…It was implemented in both Virtex-5 and Kintex7 FPGAs. Results of reconfiguration time showed that run-time reconfiguration of single LUTs in Virtex-5 devices was performed in less than 5 μs which implies a speed-up of more than 380x compared to the Xilinx XPS_HWICAP controller.…”

The Effect of Dantonic Pill on β-Catenin Expression in a Rat Model of Streptozotocin-Induced Early Stage of Diabetic Nephropathy by Zhou Shuhong, Lv Hongjun, Cui Bo, Xu Li, Shi Bingyin

“…Including an analysis of the general metabolic index and renal function, immunohistochemical staining and reverse transcription real-time PCR for β-catenin were performed in the renal cortex of the rat models every 4 weeks. After the treatments of DP and irbesartan, the albuminuria level, kidney weight/body weight, and thickness of the glomerular basement membrane were decreased, but the expression of β-catenin was not downregulated in the renal cortex. …”

Rationale for the Use of Cord Blood in Hypoxic-Ischaemic Encephalopathy by Izabela Zdolińska-Malinowska, Dariusz Boruczkowski, Dominika Hołowaty, Paweł Krajewski, Emilian Snarski

“…In several animal models of HIE, CB decreased oxidative stress, cell death markers, CD4+ T cell infiltration, and microglial activation; restored normal brain metabolic activity; promoted neurogenesis; improved myelination; and increased the proportion of mature oligodendrocytes, neuron numbers in the motor cortex and somatosensory cortex, and brain weight. …”

Efficient Continuation Methods for Computing Ground States of Quasi-2D Rotating Dipolar Bose-Einstein Condensates by B.-W. Jeng, P.-H. Su, M.-I. Char

“…Further, by adding the ratio of dipolar interaction strength to contact interaction strength as the second continuation parameter, we propose an efficient two-parameter continuation method which can effectively show the change of the ground-state vortex structures as the dipolar interaction strength gradually increases. …”
