Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Therapeuticgenemodulation refers the practice of altering the Gene expression expression of a gene at one of various stages, with a view to alleviate some form of ailment. It differs from gene therapy in that genemodulation seeks to alter the expression of an endogenous gene perhaps through the introduction of a gene encoding a novel modulatory protein whereas gene therapy concerns the introduction of a gene whose product aids the recipient directly. Modulation of gene expression can be mediated at the level of Transcription genetics transcription by artificial transcription factors or at the level of translation through RNA interference . Clinical significance All cancer is due to cells with misregulated genes, and correcting that regulation might cure the disease. For example, many cancerous cells must upregulate the enzyme telomerase in order to become immortalized. Similarly, high cholesterol levels could be treated by downregulating the genes involved with cholesterol biosynthesis , while any viral infection could be mitigated by downregulating the cell surface receptor the virus uses to gain entry, so long as that receptor is not critical for the cell s survival for example, HIV and the receptor CXCR4 . Of the two methods mentioned above for genemodulation, most clinical research seems to be in RNA interference see RNA interference Medicine . Current obstacles to this approach include its tendency to sometimes modulate other genes with sequence similarity to the target, and a difficulty in transporting exogenous RNA into cells. There are currently no clinically approved therapies using RNAi based therapeutics, although there are a number in clinical trials for example, see http www.silence therapeutics.com content pipeline ...

Angle modulation is a class of analog signal analog modulation . These techniques are based on altering the angle or phase waves phase of a sinusoidal carrier wave to Transmission telecommunications transmit data, as opposed to varying the amplitude , such as in Amplitude modulation AM transmission. Angle Modulation is modulation in which the angle of a sine wave carrier is varied by a modulating wave. Frequency Modulation FM and Phase Modulation PM are two types of angle modulation. In frequency modulation the modulating signal causes the carrier frequency to vary. These variations are controlled by both the frequency and the amplitude of the modulating wave. In phase modulation the phase of the carrier is controlled by the modulating waveform. The two main types of angle modulation are Frequency modulation FM , with its digital correspondence frequency shift keying FSK .

Orphan date November 2006 Therapeutic angiogenesis is an experimental area of treatment of ischemia , the condition which associated with decrease in blood supply to certain body organs, tissue or part. This usually caused by constriction or obstruction of the blood vessels. Angiogenesis is the natural healing process by which new blood vessel s are formed to supply the organ or part in deficit with oxygen rich blood. The goal of therapeutic angiogenesis is to stimulate the creation of new blood vessels in ischemic organs, tissues or parts in hope to increase the level of oxygen rich blood reaching these areas.

Therapeutic inertia also known as clinical inertia is a measurement of the resistance to Therapy therapeutic treatment for an existing medical condition . It is commonly measured as a percentage of the number of encounters in which a patient with a condition received new or increased therapeutic treatment out of the total number of visits to a health care professional by the patient. A high percentage indicates that the health care provider is slow to treat a medical condition. A low percentage indicates that a provider is extremely quick in prescribing new treatment at the onset of any medical condition. Calculation There are two common methods used in calculating therapeutic inertia. For the following examples, consider that a patient has five visits with a health provider. In four of those visits, a condition is not controlled such as Hypertension high blood pressure or Hypercholesterolemia high cholesterol . In two of those visits, the provider made a change to the patient s treatment for the condition. In Dr. Okonofua s original paper, this patient s therapeutic inertia is calculated as math frac h v frac c v math where h is the number of visits with an uncontrolled condition, c is the number of visits in which a change was made, and v is the total number of visits. ref name ... abstract 47 3 345 title Therapeutic Inertia Is an Impediment to Achieving the Healthy People 2010 ...

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 The modulation order of a digital communication scheme is determined by the number of the different symbols that can be transmitted using it. Modulation order can only be defined for digital modulation s. The simplest forms of digital modulation are of second order because they can transmit only two symbols usually denoted as 0 and 1 or as 1 and 1 . They are called binary shift keying BSK . Modulations which have an order of 4 and above usually are termed as higher order modulation s. Examples of these are quadrature phase shift keying QPSK and its generalisation as m ary quadrature amplitude modulation m QAM . Because existing computers and automation systems are based on binary logic most of the modulations have an order which is a power of two 2, 4, 8, 16, etc. In principle, however, the order of a modulation can be any integer greater than one. When the order of a digital modulation approaches infinity its properties approach those of the respective analog modulation. Thus the analogue modulations can be viewed as extreme cases of higher order digital modulations for which the order is equal to infinity.

The Therapeutic window or pharmaceutical window of a drug is the range of drug Dose biochemistry dosage s which can treat disease effectively while staying within the safety range.

This modulation method differs from internal modulation methods inside most other radio transmitters in that the phases and powers of the two individual signals mix within airspace, rather than in a modulator. An aircraft with an on board ILS receiver within the capture area of an ILS, glideslope and localiser range , will detect varying depths of modulation according to the aircraft s position within that airspace, providing accurate positional information about the progress to the threshold. Method used to determine aircraft position The ILS uses two radio frequencies, one for each ground station about 110 MHz for LLZ and 330 MHz for the GP , to transmit two Amplitude modulation Amplitude Modulated signals 90 Hz and 150 Hz , along the glidepath GP and the localiser LLZ trajectories into airspace . It is this signal that is projected up from the runway which an aircraft using an instrument approach, uses to land. The modulation depth of each 90 Hz and 150 Hz signal changes according to the deviation of the aircraft from the correct position for the aircraft to touchdown on the threshold. The difference between the two signal modulation depths is zero when the aircraft is on the correct glideslope on approach to the runway i.e. No difference zero Difference in the depth of modulation DDM , produces no deviation from the middle indication of the instrument s needle within the cockpit of the aircraft.
