Parallel computers with tens of thousands processors are typically programmed in a data parallel style, as opposed to the control style used multiprocessing. The success algorithms—even on problems that at first glance seem inherently serial—suggests this programming has much wider applicability than was previously thought.
The effects of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection on patient and allograft survival were determined in 1245 renal transplant recipients from 46 centers. When an antilymphocyte preparation was administered to cadaveric recipients, those at risk for primary CMV had a worse outcome than similar patients treated with prednisone azathioprine (53.1% alive 6 months functioning vs. 70.8%, P=.05) or reactivation 71.1%, P=.035). Patients better if they recieved (71.1% 60.8%, P<.01). type...
A dexterous robot manipulator must be able to feel what it is doing. The mechanical hand of the future will roll a screw between its fingers and sense, by touch, which end which. This paper describes step toward such manipulator, an imaging tactile sensor with hundreds pressure sensors in space size fingertip. was designed as part tendon-actuated mechan ical finger, similar range motion human index finger (Hillis 1981). As demonstration, device programmed distinguish among several commonly...
To investigate the transition from non-cancerous to metastatic a physical sciences perspective, Physical Sciences-Oncology Centers (PS-OC) Network performed molecular and biophysical comparative studies of non-tumorigenic MCF-10A MDA-MB-231 breast epithelial cell lines, commonly used as models cancer metastasis. Experiments were in 20 laboratories 12 PS-OCs. Each laboratory was supplied with identical aliquots common reagents culture protocols. Analyses these measurements revealed dramatic...

Cryptosporidia are sporozoan parasites that infect epithelial cells of the gastrointestinal tract. Infection with has been found most commonly in a variety animal species and only rarely man. The authors report case an immunosuppressed renal-transplant recipient IgA deficiency who experienced diarrhea fever was to have jejunal biopsy specimen air-dried smears specimen. By electron microscopy, trophozoite, schizont, macrogamete forms were identified, these had morphologic features similar...

To test whether HLA histocompatibility phenotypes might be associated with circulating hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAG), we performed chisquare and Scheffé analyses on findings in 144 renal patients known types HBsAg status. A significant relation between locus type (or types) HBS antigenemia was demonstrated (P = 0.01, adjusted for dual testing) positive associations suggested Bw15, Bw17 Bw35 transient or persistent both) antigenemia. The latter individually were statistically only if...
From the Publisher: Most people are baffled by how computers work and assume that they will never understand them. What don't realize--and what Daniel Hillis's short book brilliantly demonstrates--is computers' seemingly complex operations can be broken down into a few simple parts perform same procedures over over. Written clearly succinctly one of world's leading computer scientists, The Pattern on Stone is an indispensable guide to understanding workings most ubiquitous important machines.
Recent epidemiologic evidence has accumulated indicating that certain chimpanzees and other primates act as carriers of human hepatitis virus. Outbreaks in which have been so implicated are summarized this paper, the significant findings emphasized. Isolations viral agents from stools 25 suspect animals, together with experimental attempts to characterize some properties these relate them virus, described. The paper also gives biochemical histologic for pathologic involvement livers...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) testing programs reduce mortality; however, approximately 40% of the recommended population who should undergo CRC does not. Early colon detection in patient populations ineligible for testing, such as elderly or those with significant comorbidities, could have clinical benefit. Despite many attempts to identify individual protein markers this disease, little progress has been made. Targeted mass spectrometry, using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) technology,...
