ADVANCED IMPLEMENTATIONS OF THE ITERATIVE MULTI REGION TECHNIQUE
… (FDTD) method into the iterative multi-region (IMR) technique, an iterative approach used to solve large-scale electromagnetic scattering and radiation problems, is presented in this dissertation. The idea of the IMR technique is to divide a large problem domain into smaller subregions, solve …

Scaling the Maternal and Neonatal Survival Initiatives (MANSI) program in low resource settings
… Mortality Ratio (MMR) and Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) are very high in parts of rural India when compared to other developing and developed countries. To address these high rates the World Health Organization (WHO) set up Millennium Development Goals (MDG) for each country to reach by 2015. These …

The Contribution Of The Recovery Self Assessment To The Measurement Of Illness Management And Recovery
… Management and Recovery Client Self-rating (IMR), the Sense of Community Index-2 (SCI-2), the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RES), and the Recovery Self Assessment-Revised (RSAR). Significant correlations existed between the IMR, the RES, and the RSA-R, but not between the RES and the RSA-R. …

Identifying notch-regulated genes using a specific notch signaling inhibitor
… To address this limitation, this study employed IMR-1A, a selective Notch pathway inhibitor that disrupts the assembly of the Notch transcriptional activation complex by blocking the recruitment of Mastermind-like 1 (MAML1). By comparing the transcriptomic effects of DAPT and IMR-1A during …

Invasive Physiologic Assessment of Myocardial Viability After Primary Angioplasty in Acute Myocardial Infarction: Comparison With FDG-PET Imaging
… along with index of microcirculatory resistance (IMR), defined as the distal coronary pressure divided by the inverse of the hyperemic mean transit time. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET was performed after primary PCI in 7 days to evaluate myocardial viability by regional percentage uptake of FDG …

Tides, Winds, and Reactive Halogens A Study of Multiphase Chemistry in the Marine Boundary Layer
… Ion-Molecule reaction Region, the so-called ”t-IMR”, for use with a Time-of-Flight Chemical Ionization Mass Spectrometer (ToF-CIMS). The t-IMR samples ambient air at a laminar high volume flow (at a rate of 10 L/min), and demonstrates a reduction in artificial signals/background from wall …

Materials and biological approach to gene delivery in human embryonic stem cells
… gene delivery in hard-to-transfect cells like IMR-90 human fetal lung fibroblasts and human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). The PEG-b-PVBLG-8 contained a membrane-disruptive, cationic, helical polypeptide block (PVBLG-8) for complexing with DNA and a hydrophilic PEG block to improve the …

The contribution of official development assistance to poverty reduction in Zambia
… Public expenditure was then correlated with the IMR, and numerically compared with the HDI and poverty headcount. The research produced a number of key findings. For nine of the fifteen years examined, Zambia received an average of 260.57 per cent of all ODA it requested. There was evidence that …

Role of hnRNP A1 in the Regulation of HDM2 Gene Expression
… <em>HDM2</em> mRNA associates with hnRNPA1 in IMR-90 cells. We have also observed that alterations of hnRNP A1 expression can modulate <em>HDM2</em> mRNA levels. HDM2 expression must be regulated in normal and stressed cells to maintain normal p53 levels. Numerous proteins interact with HDM2 to …

Post-Replicative Resolution of Under-Replication
… high quality origin-mapping data in HeLa and IMR-90 cells. From this, hypotheses were generated that related an increase in unreplicated segments of DNA to reduced functional origin number. Presented in this thesis is the confirmation of this relation by quantifying chromosome mis-segregation …

The Effect of Stress Induced Premature Senescence on the Expression of Heterogeneous RibonucleoIeoprotein
… stress induced premature senescence (SIPS), IMR-90 fibroblast diploid normal lung cells were treated with a sub-lethal concentration of hydrogen peroxide that has been shown to induce premature senescence. To determine if hnRNPs may play a role <em>in vivo</em>, we measured their expression …

Investigating dysregulation in protein quality control mechanisms in senescent cells
… two cell lines, primary human fetal fibroblast IMR-90s, and transformed carcinoma epithelial A549s, following proteotoxic stress. Our findings reveal a generally highly-conserved stress response to proteotoxic insult between all three distinct cell-states, suggesting that senescent cells do not …
