Nonlinear Device Noise Models:Thermodynamic Requirements
All correspondence concerning this article should be addressed to
Prof. John WyattThis paper proposes three tests to determine whether a given nonlinear device noise model
is in agreement with accepted thermodynamic principles. These tests are applied to several
models. One conclusion is that every Gaussian noise model for any nonlinear device predicts
thermodynamically impossible circuit behavior: these models should be abandoned. But
the nonlinear shot-noise model predicts thermodynamically acceptable behavior under a
constraint derived here. Further, this constraint specifies the current noise amplitude at
each operating point from knowledge of the device v - i curve alone. For the Gaussian and
shot-noise models, this paper shows how the thermodynamic requirements can be reduced
to concise mathematical tests involving no approximatioSupported by the National Science Foundation Contract No. 94-23221

Solution Structure of LC4 Transmembrane Segment of CCR5
CC-chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) is a specific co-receptor allowing the entry of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). The LC4 region in CCR5 is required for HIV-1 entry into the cells. In this study, the solution structure of LC4 in SDS micelles was elucidated by using standard 1H two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy, circular dichroism, and fluorescdence quenching. The LC4 structure adopts two helical structures, whereas the C-terminal part remains unstructured. The positions in which LC4 binds to the HIV-1 inhibitory peptide LC5 were determined by docking calculations in addition to NMR data. The poses showed the importance of the hydrophobic interface of the assembled structures. The solution structure of LC4 elucidated in the present work provides a structural basis for further studies on the HIV-1 inhibitory function of the LC4 region
Do Market-Level Hospital and Physician Resources Affect Small Area Variation in Hospital Use?
This study evaluates the effect of market-level physician and hospital resources on hospital use. It is anticipated that higher hospital discharges are associated with (1) greater hospital and physician resources, (2) more differentiated hospital and physician resources, and (3) higher levels of teaching intensity in the community. Data on 14 modified diagnostically related groups (DRGs) and 58 hospital market communities in Michigan are analyzed during a 7-year period. Findings indicate that physician resources, hospital resources, differentiation of hospital and physician resources, and teaching intensity contribute only modestly to discharges, holding constant the socioeconomic attributes of the community and adjusting for the variation in hospital use over time. With the inclusion of hospital and physician resource variables, socioeconomic factors remain important determinants of the variation across market communities. Findings are discussed in terms of their implications for health care organizations, managed care programs, and cost control efforts in general.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/68450/2/6.pd
