In other regulated industries such as the construction industry, building commissioning is part of the quality assurance process provided for Facilities Maintenance and Engineering (FM&E) staff during and following construction. The process assures non-clinical FM&E staff and leadership that all systems and components of a building or industrial plant are designed, installed, tested, operated, and maintained according to the operational requirements of the owner or final client [25].
Unfortunately, in comparison with healthcare, such requirements are non-existent for handing over of new infrastructure for clinical staff who will be providing care to patients in these new areas, often leaving training and new systems/processes untested until the first patient arrives, which is a potential risk for patient safety.
Then, in an IAAF out-of-competition test conducted in March 2005, Badji tested positive for the illegal substance androstenedione. As a result, he was barred from competing in the sport between June 2005 and May 2007.[5]
There has been a consistent approach from the government in the UK that there is not enough evidence to support a countrywide screening programme for the detection of prostate cancer. There are however large studies in Europe that show there is a significant reduction in the chances of dying of prostate cancer of over 20% in a large, screened population compared to the men who were not tested.

The ED100LE is tested beyond traditional standards, using a larger door that has more weight and testing to more than 1 million cycles. Tests have shown that at 1 million cycles, the product uses only 20 percent of its motor life. In addition, tests show that the ED100LE operator has less than a 1% failure rate. It also provides full-power durability in a low-energy setting.
In February 2022, dormakaba completed the acquisition of AtiQx Holding B.V, a provider of electronic access control and workforce management in the Netherlands. Their offering includes cloud-based solutions with an 24/7 services model, with an attractive recurring Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) income. The company is based in Utrecht/Dordrecht and has around 70 employees. AtiQx generated mid-single-digit million sales in Swiss Francs in financial year 2021.
In July 2021, dormakaba completed the acquisition of Solus Security Systems Pvt Ltd, a provider of integrated Electronic Access & Data solutions in India. Based in Bangalore (India) with multiple further locations, Solus offers pan-Indian coverage for systems integrators and mid-sized end-customers in nearly all verticals, supported by around 200 employees, including around 130 service technicians. The company generated single-digit million sales in Swiss francs in financial year 2020/21 ending 31 March 2021.
dormakaba also sees the growing importance of data-driven ecosystems and solutions that satisfy the future needs of customers and markets. Therefore, the company engages in partnerships to grow the potential of verticals such as airports, healthcare, lodging, and multi-occupancy residential segments.
In recent years, the product portfolio of dormakaba has increasingly embraced electronics, connectivity, and digital solutions. Their continued investment in product innovation and digitization has positioned the company well to offer attractive solutions for the emerging demands of customers and the market.
In this paper, we present an automated method to segment blood vessels in fundus retinal images. The method could be used to support a non-intrusive diagnosis in modern ophthalmology for early detection of retinal diseases, treatment evaluation or clinical study. Our method combines the bias correction to correct the intensity inhomogeneity of the retinal image, and a matched filter to enhance the appearance of the blood vessels. The blood vessels are then extracted from the matched filter response image using the Expectation Maximisation algorithm. The method is tested on fundus retinal images of STARE dataset and the experimental results are compared with some recently published methods of retinal blood vessels segmentation. The experimental results show that our method achieved the best overall performance and it is comparable to the performance of human experts.

Tumors induced in mice by UV radiation often express highly immunogenic tumor-specific transplantation antigens (TSTA). The 216 gene, which encodes a TSTA of the C3H tumor UV-1591, has been cloned and characterized as a novel major histocompatibility complex Class I antigen. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the 216 gene-encoded TSTA can function as a tumor rejection antigen when expressed on unrelated, nonantigenic murine tumor cells or whether its function is restricted to UV-induced tumors. A cell line (10T-1) derived from a spontaneous transformant of C3H 10T cells was cotransfected with DNA from p216 and pSV2-neo plasmids. About 2 wk after transfection, G418-resistant colonies were isolated randomly and tested for cell surface expression of the 216 gene product using a monoclonal antibody specific for 216 gene-encoded TSTA. Of 20 clones tested, four expressed high levels of 216 gene-encoded TSTA. These four clones were highly antigenic in that they were completely rejected in normal mice but grew progressively in nude mice. Furthermore, the 216-positive clones were immunologically cross-reactive with UV-1591, as determined by in vitro cytotoxic T-lymphocyte and in vivo immunization and challenge assays. Surprisingly, 216-positive 10T-1 transfectants also cross-reacted with 10T-1 cells, both in vitro and in vivo. These results demonstrate that the product of a cloned TSTA gene from a UV-induced murine tumor is capable of functioning as a tumor rejection antigen when expressed on unrelated, nonantigenic tumor cells. In addition, these results indicate that this approach could be used to augment the immune response against poorly antigenic tumors.
Extracellular recordings in urethane-anesthetized male rats indicated that electrical stimulation of the subfornical organ (SFO) alters the activity of 54 out of 62 phasically firing neurosecretory neurons in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN); 44 cells demonstrate an increase in excitability; 10 cells display a depression in their activity. In 14 out of 38 PVN cells tested, SFO stimulation-evoked excitations were abolished by pretreatment with the angiotensin II (ANG II) antagonist, saralasin (Sar), in the region of the median preoptic nucleus (MnPO). Inhibitory responses (n=7) were not affected. Microinjection of ANG II into the region of the SFO produced either a facilitation (n=28) or no effect (n=6) on the excitability of phasically active PVN neurosecretory cells and the facilitatory effect of 9 out of 23 cells tested was prevented by pretreatment with Sar in the region of the MnPO. All the PVN cells which had excitatory responses to either electrical (n=7) or chemical (n=9) stimulation of the SFO that were blocked following the pretreatment could also be activated by intravenous administration of ANG II. Furthermore, this activation was blocked (n=10) or attenuated (n=6) by pretreatment with Sar in the region of the MnPO. These results show an involvement of both the MnPO and the SFO for the regulation of excitability of putative vasopressin (VP)-secreting PVN neurons, and suggest that MnPO neurons sensitive to ANG II may relay activation of SFO neurons by circulating ANG II to putative VP-secreting PVN neurons which result in enhanced excitability.
