Measurement of Serum, Liver, and Brain Cytokine Induction, Thiamine Levels, and Hepatopathology in Rats Exposed to a 4-Day Alcohol Binge Protocol
This study aimed to determine whether binge EtOH exposure would induce the expression of certain cytokines in blood, liver, or brain, thereby supporting the neuroinflammation hypothesis of elevated Cho.

On the Generation of Large Wave Parallel Electric Fields Responsible for Electron Heating in the High-Latitude E Region
This paper considers the effect of electron density gradients parallel to the geomagnetic field (∇∥n) on the Farley-Buneman instability and the resulting change in wave δE∥.

Phone N’ Computer: Teaming Up an Information Appliance with a PC
We experimented with a device teaming approach that takes advantage of both types of devices: the familiar and high bandwidth user interface of the PC, and the task specific form factors of an information appliance.

Signs of Preclinical Wernicke’s Encephalopathy and Thiamine Levels as Predictors of Neuropsychological Deficits in Alcoholism Without Korsakoff’s Syndrome
The purpose of this study was to determine whether meeting historical criteria for unsuspected Wernicke’s encephalopathy explains why some alcoholics have severe neuropsychological deficits.

Experimental test for geminate recombination applied to organic solar cells
We show that a clear experimental test can distinguish between geminate and nongeminate recombination in low mobility semiconductors.

Pervasive diagnosis
We present an efficient heuristic search for these informative production plans and show through experiments on a model of an industrial digital printing press that the theoretical increase in long run productivity can be realized on practical real-time systems.

Performative verbs and performative acts
Relying on a uniform meaning for verbs on their reportative and performative uses, we propose an assertoric analysis of performative utterances that does not require an actual intention for deriving (b), and hence can meet (a) and (c).
