    The purpose of this study was to determine the extent to which the use of a web application to improve efficiency and effectiveness of administrative work. The research method used consisted of the analysis phase, study libraries to support application design and data collection based on observations. Results of evaluation and observation data before and after implementation of the system showed that the use of a web application to improve efficiency and effectiveness of administrative work, e.g. by decreasing the length of time the making of letter, an increase in the percentage of the making of timeliness, accuracy of data validation and provide facilities for students in order letter as well as convenience for staff in the making of letter. Another thing is the ease in monitoring the accuracy of the making of letter

    This study aims to determine the benefits of a web application in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of services to lecturers. The research method consists of literature study and data collection analysis based on observations. Implementing a web application, an observation is conducted followed by a comparison on data prior to the implementation. The evaluation results show that the implementation of a web application improves efficiency and effectiveness in the use of time and resources in providing services to lecturers in information access

    CP violation in the decay mode B→πγγB\to \pi \gamma \gamma

    Full text link
    Within the framework of Standard Model, the exclusive decay mode B→πγγB\to \pi \gamma \gamma is studied. Although the usual short distance contribution is small compared to the similar B→KγγB\to K\gamma\gamma mode, the process offers the possibility of studying the CP violation, a feature absent in the B→KB \to K counterpart.Comment: 11 page latex file including 2 ps figures.

    A Population-Based Surveillance Study of Shared Genotypes of Escherichia coli Isolates from Retail Meat and Suspected Cases of Urinary Tract Infections.

    There is increasing evidence that retail food may serve as a source of Escherichia coli that causes community-acquired urinary tract infections, but the impact of this source in a community is not known. We conducted a prospective, population-based study in one community to examine the frequency of recovery of uropathogenic E. coli genotypes from retail meat samples. We analyzed E. coli isolates from consecutively collected urine samples of patients suspected to have urinary tract infections (UTIs) at a university-affiliated health service and retail meat samples from the same geographic region. We genotyped all E. coli isolates by multilocus sequence typing (MLST) and tested them for antimicrobial susceptibility. From 2016 to 2017, we cultured 233 E. coli isolates from 230 (21%) of 1,087 urine samples and 177 E. coli isolates from 120 (28%) of 427 retail meat samples. Urine samples contained 61 sequence types (STs), and meat samples had 95 STs; 12 STs (ST10, ST38, ST69, ST80, ST88, ST101, ST117, ST131, ST569, ST906, ST1844, and ST2562) were common to both. Thirty-five (81%) of 43 meat isolates among the 12 STs were from poultry. Among 94 isolates in the 12 STs, 26 (60%) of 43 retail meat isolates and 15 (29%) of 51 human isolates were pan-susceptible (P < 0.005). We found that 21% of E. coli isolates from suspected cases of UTIs belonged to STs found in poultry. Poultry may serve as a possible reservoir of uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC). Additional studies are needed to demonstrate transmission pathways of these UPEC genotypes and their food sources.IMPORTANCE Community-acquired urinary tract infection caused by Escherichia coli is one of the most common infectious diseases in the United States, affecting approximately seven million women and costing approximately 11.6 billion dollars annually. In addition, antibiotic resistance among E. coli bacteria causing urinary tract infection continues to increase, which greatly complicates treatment. Identifying sources of uropathogenic E. coli and implementing prevention measures are essential. However, the reservoirs of uropathogenic E. coli have not been well defined. This study demonstrated that poultry sold in retail stores may serve as one possible source of uropathogenic E. coli This finding adds to a growing body of evidence that suggests that urinary tract infection may be a food-borne disease. More research in this area can lead to the development of preventive strategies to control this common and costly infectious disease

    Associated Production of a W Boson and One b Jet

    Full text link
    We calculate the production of a W boson and a single b jet to next-to-leading order in QCD at the Fermilab Tevatron and the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Both exclusive and inclusive cross sections are presented. We separately consider the cross section for jets containing a single b quark and jets containing a b-anti b pair. There are a wide variety of processes that contribute, and it is necessary to include them all in order to have a complete description at both colliders.Comment: LaTeX, 16 pages, 22 postscript figures; version published in Phys.

    Localized and controlled delivery of nitric oxide to the conventional outflow pathway via enzyme biocatalysis: towards therapy for Glaucoma

    Get PDF
    Nitric oxide (NO) has been shown to lower intraocular pressure (IOP), however its therapeutic effects on outflow physiology are location- and dose-dependent. Here, a NO delivery platform that directly targets the resistance-generating region of the conventional outflow pathway and locally liberates a controlled dose of NO is reported. An increase in outflow facility (decrease in IOP) is demonstrated in mouse model
