The Essential Guide to Vitamin D - - Bog - Nova Science Publishers Inc - Plusbog.dk

This guide first discusses vitamin D receptor, a member of the superfamily of nuclear steroid/thyroid hormone receptors that can be found in both the cytoplasm and nucleus. It acts mainly as a ligand-dependent DNA-binding transcriptional factor mediating the actions of the biological active form of vitamin D (VD), the metabolite 1α,25[OH]2D3. Vitamin D has a complex role in the human body. Beside the classical effects in bone mineralisation, a significant amount of data regarding the role of this vitamin in cell differentiation, defence mechanism, allergy, inflammation, metabolism and hormonal regulation continue to accumulate. As such, the relevance of these effects for lung disorders is under investigation. Vitamin D is a hormone with pleiotropic effects; it controls calcium homeostasis, immune response, and hemodynamic wall stress. In the last decade, numerous studies have focused on the role of vitamin D levels in cardiovascular disease. In particular, it has been shown that insufficient Vitamin D levels are frequently observed among patients with cardiovascular disease. Additionally, calcitriol, which is also called 1, 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3, is involved in several physiological processes maintaining balanced bone turnover and a healthy bone microenvironment. The beneficial effects of vitamin D on bone biomechanical features are not exclusively attributable to the reduction in non-mineralised bone matrix, but to the osteocyte number and their connectivity, too. Studies have reported that Vitamin D is essential for recovery of hospitalised patients as they are at increased risk of developing/worsening vitamin D deficiency due to lack of availability of sources of the vitamin. Various cognitive disorders have also been associated with hypovitaminosis D. Vitamin D has also been proposed as a risk-modifying factor for many chronic diseases, including multiple sclerosis, schizophrenia, cognitive issues, hypertension, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, psoriasis, and other autoimmune diseases. Vitamin D deficiency is the main cause of osteoporosis and osteomalacia in adults and rickets in children. The low serum of this vitamin is common in patients suffering from cardiovascular, autoimmune, cancer, psoriasis, depression and atherosclerosis disorder. The highly sensitive nature of vitamin D to environmental factors including light, heat, and oxygen, as well as hydrophobicity and acid labile nature, are the major drawbacks that need to be addressed for development of an efficient formulation for vitamin D.

2-d Quadratic Maps And 3-d Ode Systems: A Rigorous Approach - Zeraoulia Elhadj - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

2-d Quadratic Maps And 3-d Ode Systems: A Rigorous Approach - Zeraoulia Elhadj - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This book is based on research on the rigorous proof of chaos and bifurcations in 2-D quadratic maps, especially the invertible case such as the Henon map, and in 3-D ODE's, especially piecewise linear systems such as the Chua's circuit. In addition, the book covers some recent works in the field of general 2-D quadratic maps, especially their classification into equivalence classes, and finding regions for chaos, hyperchaos, and non-chaos in the space of bifurcation parameters.Following the main introduction to the rigorous tools used to prove chaos and bifurcations in the two representative systems, is the study of the invertible case of the 2-D quadratic map, where previous works are oriented toward Henon mapping. 2-D quadratic maps are then classified into 30 maps with well-known formulas. Two proofs on the regions for chaos, hyperchaos, and non-chaos in the space of the bifurcation parameters are presented using a technique based on the second-derivative test and bounds for Lyapunov exponents. Also included is the proof of chaos in the piecewise linear Chua's system using two methods, the first of which is based on the construction of Poincare map, and the second is based on a computer-assisted proof. Finally, a rigorous analysis is provided on the bifurcational phenomena in the piecewise linear Chua's system using both an analytical 2-D mapping and a 1-D approximated Poincare mapping in addition to other analytical methods.

3-D Image Processing Algorithms - Ioannis Pitas - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

3-D Image Processing Algorithms - Ioannis Pitas - Bog - John Wiley & Sons Inc - Plusbog.dk

Thorough, up-to-date, comprehensive coverage of 3-D image processing This authoritative guide presents and explains numerous 3-D image processing, analysis, and visualization techniques, including volume filtering, interpolation, 3-D discrete Fourier transform, evaluation of topological and geometrical features, region segmentation and edge detection, skeletonization and registration, and visualization. Necessary theoretical background is provided for each topic, along with a number of algorithms, selected on the basis of their acceptance by the scientific community. The presentation of each technique includes a commented implementation, either in C code or in C-like pseudocode. Though presented in an almost ready-to-run form, the C code is simplified to expose the structure of the processing algorithms, rather than their programming details. This combination of theoretical treatment and C code implementation allows readers to gain a thorough insight into these techniques. Important features of 3-D Image Processing Algorithms include: * A demo version of EIKONA 3D image processing software * Lab exercises based on EIKONA 3D * Accompanying transparencies summarizing the most important topics. The material can be downloaded from an ftp site Based on the authors'' long experience in research and teaching of 2-D/3-D image processing, 3-D Image Processing Algorithms is an indispensable resource for electrical, computer, and biomedical engineers, as well as computer graphics professionals and programmers.

The L&D Leader - Michelle Ockers - Bog - Kogan Page Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Senior L&D professionals need to deliver value to the business and equip employees with the skills they need to succeed in a constantly changing world of work. But how can they do this? This book has the answer. Written by two leading voices in the industry, this book combines more than 20 years'' research with over 7,500 L&D professionals and interviews with more than 150 learning leaders. It is a practical, evidence-based guide for senior L&D practitioners. It allows these professionals to assess where to focus efforts to best support the workforce, align priorities with the overall business strategy and adapt L&D activities for optimum results. The L&D Leader covers the key principles that senior L&D professionals need and the practices they should adopt in order to deliver the best results for the business. This book discusses why new technologies, models and processes won''t offer the solutions that the organization needs for its employees'' learning and explains why a new approach is necessary. It outlines the key principles needed to succeed including being data-driven, flexible, outcomes-led, innovative and, most importantly, how to build these principles into everyday practice. There is also discussion of how to optimize culture, onboarding, engagement and inclusion in the workforce and how to scale success for high-performing teams. Full of practical advice and real-world examples from organizations including Unilever, Starbucks, 7-Eleven, PwC and National Australia Bank, this is ideal reading for all senior L&D professionals needing to take a strategic approach to learning that benefits both employees and the business as a whole.
