RF to IP bridge system and method of use

Abstract: A two component highly portable and lightweight system for extending the transmission capabilities of Land Mobile Radio systems into areas lacking coverage due to structures, depth below the earth's surface, or varying terrain or other dead zones lacking coverage. The system utilizes the Radio over IP protocol to transfer two-way audio from one radio to another radio for re-broadcast inside a dead zone over a 900 MHz Ethernet-based point-to-point wireless link. The novel system includes RF to TCP/IP conversion and digital data transmission followed by a TCP/IP conversion to RF radio link and provides components and a method for bridging RF radio into dead zones.

Molecular evidence of mother-to-infant transmission of hepatitis G virus among women without known risk factors for parenteral infections.

Abstract: Hepatitis G virus (HGV) RNA was detected in 18 of 133 pregnant women from Tanzania without known risk factors for HGV infection and in 7 of 18 children born to HGV RNA-positive mothers. Molecular evidence of mother-to-infant transmission was obtained only for three of seven children. HGV RNA was also detected in 4 of 42 children born to non-HGV-infected women. Thus, mechanisms other than materno-filial may play an important role in HGV transmission during early childhood.

Hyperparathyroidism in the elderly.

Abstract: Primary hyperparathyroidism seems to be increasing in incidence in elderly patients. Their symptoms are somewhat different from those encountered in younger patients, the most striking difference being the increase in the number of patients with mental changes. Twenty-nine patients, 23 women and 6 men, were treated at two community hospitals. Surgery was successful in all instances with no postoperative mortality and a low rate of complications. When properly evaluated, elderly patients tolerate parathyroid exploration very satisfactorily.

Influence of reservoir properties on the methane adsorption capacity and fractal features of coal and shale in the upper Permian coal measures of the South Sichuan coalfield, China:

Abstract: Pore structure plays an essential role in the reservoir heterogeneity and methane adsorption capacity. Significant progress has been made in the pore structure classification of porous materials (s...
