Abstract

Hidetomo Murakami,1 Hiroo Ichikawa,2 Azusa Sugimoto,1 Akinori Futamura,1 Yuki Shimizu,2 Masayuki Sugie,2 Michael W Miller,3 Mitsuru Kawamura11Department of Neurology, Showa University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan; 2Department of Neurology, Showa University Fujigaoka Hospital, Yokohama, Japan; 3MD/PhD Program, University of Tokyo Postgraduate School of Medicine, Tokyo, JapanAbstract: A 49-year-old man with mitochondrial disease presented with visual allesthesia, a rare and puzzling phenomenon. He was admitted for treatment because of convulsions. After the convulsions ceased, he exhibited left homonymous hemianopsia. Brain diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a high-intensity area in the right occipital lobe. Both the hemianopsia and the MRI activation in this area disappeared by day 36 of hospitalization. On the morning of day 57, right homonymous hemianopsia emerged in a singular manner. The patient perceived an illusory object (a bottle placed by the bedside) in his left visual field, while the real object was in his blind right field. This case of visual allesthesia was ­accompanied by palinopsia, ie, perseveration of the image of the bottle. Diffusion-weighted MRI showed a new, high-intensity area in the left occipital lobe. We believe the visual allesthesia resulted from transfer of cortical information obtained by blindsight between hemispheres as a result of epileptic excitation.Keywords: visual allesthesia, blindsight, palinopsia, mitochondrial disease, epilepsy

Abstract

A new code for the design of the guard fence performances was implemented and issued in April 1999 in Japan. The prescribed performances of the new code are: i) prevention of derail, ii) safety of occupant, iii) leading vehicles to road, and iv) prevention of spreading out the broken pieces. In the new code, the full-scale experiment for checking the performances of guard fences is required in the determination of the structure of the guard fence. However, it is very difficult to test the performance of full-scale guard fences in the field for the parametric examination because of the huge time and cost consumption. In this study, the numerical analysis using LS-DYNA under the simulated condition of the truck-to-fence crash has been carried out for the steel and aluminum bridge fences. The results of analyses are compared with the results of field experiments. The tensile experiment is conducted to determine the stress-strain relationship and the strain rate of materials. According to the calculation results, it was found that the strain rate has to be considered for the analysis and design of steel guard fences, but does not effect the results the aluminum guard fences., Nonlinear Collision Analysis of Vehicles onto Bridge Guard Fences

19. Effects of different root coping materials for abutment teeth on secondary caries and periodontal conditions: a retrospective study.

Author

Yang TC, Sugie M, Maeda Y, and Ikebe K

Abstract

This study evaluated secondary caries and periodontal conditions associated with metal (MCs) and composite resin copings (RCs) of abutment teeth for overdentures. The rates of secondary caries and periodontal problems in 70 root copings (41 MCs, 29 RCs) in 35 patients were retrospectively investigated for a period of 6.9 years. Statistical analysis was performed using chi-square tests and logistic regression (P < .05). No significant differences in secondary caries or periodontal conditions were detected between MCs and RCs. These results suggest that RCs and MCs can be used as root copings of abutment teeth for overdentures. Int J Prosthodont 2012;25:63-65. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

43. Evaluation of the Cluster Structure on the PIM/C Parallel Inference Machine.

Author

Tarui, T., Asaie, M., Ido, N., Nakagawa, T., and Sugie, M.

Abstract

The characteristics of a cluster-structure parallel computer are analyzed and evaluated on the PIM/c parallel inference machine, which consists of eight-processor shared-memory clusters communicating through a processor connected to a network. To avoid communication bottlenecks, the maximum number of processors in a cluster is limited by the ratio of communication operations to program-execution operations. Since this ratio can be as high as 30% on the PIM/c, the network receiving operations should be distributed to processors in the same cluster. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Abstract

Allergic disorders commonly involve both chronic tissue inflammation and remodeling caused by immunological reactions to various antigens on tissue surfaces. Due to their anatomical location, vascular endothelial cells are the final responders to interact with various exogenous factors that come into contact with the epithelial surface, such as pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and antigens. Recent studies have shed light on the important roles of endothelial cells in the development and exacerbation of allergic disorders. For instance, endothelial cells have the greatest potential to produce several key molecules that are deeply involved in allergic inflammation, such as periostin and thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC/CCL17). Additionally, endothelial cells were recently shown to be important functional targets for IL-33—an essential regulator of allergic inflammation. Notably, almost all endothelial cell responses and functions involved in allergic inflammation are not suppressed by corticosteroids. These corticosteroid-refractory endothelial cell responses and functions include TNF-α-associated angiogenesis, leukocyte adhesion, IL-33-mediated responses and periostin and TARC production. Therefore, these unique responses and functions of endothelial cells may be critically involved in the pathogenesis of various allergic disorders, especially their refractory processes. Here, we review recent studies, including ours, which have elucidated previously unknown pathophysiological roles of vascular endothelial cells in allergic inflammation and discuss the possibility of endothelium-targeted therapy for allergic disorders.
