    Abstract The principal aim of the work presented here is to investigate and demonstrate that a forward tilted rowing blade would result in a more efficient and effective motion of the blade through the water that would result in a higher boat speed when an equal input power is provided. A 1:5 scaled rowing boat is used to determine the performance of rowing blades with different sizes and blade angles. This is used to validate the results of a previous study where the optimal blade angle of 15

    Abstract We have previously shown that interspecies incompatibility of CD47 plays an important role in triggering rejection of xenogeneic hematopoietic cells by macrophages. However, whether CD47 incompatibility also induces rejection of nonhematopoietic cellular xenografts remains unknown. Herein, we have addressed this question in a mouse model of hepatocyte transplantation in which CD47 -/- hepatocytes were used to resemble xenografts for CD47 incompatibility. We show that intrasplenic transplantation of CD47 -/- , but not wild-type (WT) hepatocytes, into partially hepatectomized syngeneic WT mice resulted in a rapid increase in Mac-1 + cells with an activation phenotype (i.e., Mac-1 + CD14 + and Mac-1 + CD16/32 high ), compared to nontransplant controls. In addition, CD47 -/- hepatocytes were more severely damaged than WT hepatocytes as indicated by the greater AST and ALT serum levels in these mice. Furthermore, long-term donor hepatocyte survival and liver repopulation were observed in mice receiving WT hepatocytes, whereas CD47 -/- hepatocytes were completely rejected within 2 weeks. These results suggest that CD47 on donor hepatocytes prevents recipient myeloid innate immune cell activation, hence aiding in graft survival after hepatocyte transplantation. Thus, CD47 incompatibility is likely to present an additional barrier to hepatocyte xenotransplantation.

    Abstract The major steps of sewerage rehabilitation include inspection of sewerage, assessment of structural conditions, computation of structural condition grades, and determination of rehabilitation methods and materials. Conventionally, sewerage rehabilitation planning relies on experts with professional background that is tedious and time-consuming. This paper proposes an automation model of planning optimal sewerage rehabilitation strategies for the sewer system by integrating image process, clustering technology, optimization, and visualization display. Firstly, image processing techniques, such as wavelet transformation and co-occurrence features extraction, were employed to extract various characteristics of structural failures from CCTV inspection images. Secondly, a classification neural network was established to automatically interpret the structural conditions by comparing the extracted features with the typical failures in a databank. Then, to achieve optimal rehabilitation efficiency, a genetic algorithm was used to determine appropriate rehabilitation methods and substitution materials for the pipe sections with a risk of mal-function and even collapse. Finally, the result from the automation model can be visualized in a geographic information system in which essential information of the sewer system and sewerage rehabilitation plans are graphically displayed. For demonstration, the automation model of optimal sewerage rehabilitation planning was applied to a sewer system in east Taichung, Chinese Taiwan.

    Abstract Background: The role of calcineurin (protein phosphatase 2B (PP2B)) in the pathogenesis of human dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) has not been fully elucidated. We determined the potential involvement of calcineurin in the pathogenesis of DCM caused by mutations in CnB1, a subunit of calcineurin.
    Methods: By whole-exome sequencing, we identified a new CnB1 variant in a Han Chinese proband with cardiomyopathy from a 3-generation family with 2 normal individuals and 3 individuals with familial dilated cardiomyopathy. The potential pathogenic variant was validated by Sanger sequencing. We performed functional and mechanistic experiments in a CnB1-knockin (KI) mouse model and at the cellular level.
    Results: We detected a rare heterozygous CnB1 variant (p.D102A) in a proband with dilated cardiomyopathy. This variant was localized to the EF hand 3 region of CnB1, where no variants have been previously reported. KI mice harboring the p.D102A variant exhibited decreased cardiac function and cardiac dilatation. Immunoblotting, RT-PCR and immunofluorescence results showed decreased cardiomyocyte size and heart failure-related protein expression. A calcineurin activity assay demonstrated decreased calcineurin activity in the KI mice, accompanied by the decreased ability of CnB1 to bind CnA.
    Conclusions: CnB1 p.D102A is a disease-associated variant that confers susceptibility to cardiac dilatation. This variant is associated with impaired calcineurin activity and a subsequent decrease in the ability of CnB1 to bind CnA.

    Abstract Arterio-esophageal fistula (AEF) is a rare life-threatening cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Realizing the risk factors and clinical presentations of AEF will enable us to provide timely diagnosis, efficient treatment, and better outcome. We present a 43-year-old Taiwanese man who had histories of destructive lung, innominate artery-trachea fistula, and received bilobectomy. He was admitted to our hospital with fresh blood drainage from nasogastric tube. He was diagnosed as right fifth intercostal artery esophageal fistula by computed tomography angiography and transcatheter arterial embolization was performed. The bleeding stopped and the patient was discharged uneventfully. The risk factors of AEF include esophageal foreign body, vascular surgery, thoracic arterial malformations, and concurrent chemoradiotherapy in T4-esophageal cancer. Computed tomography angiography may be the most sensitive diagnostic test. Transcatheter arterial embolization or endovascular stent grafting may be considered as the first-line treatment of AEF in the future.
