Absnact -To achieve high efficiency PFC front stage in switching mode power supply (SWS), Dual Boost PFC (DBPFC) topology shows superior characteristics compared with traditional Boost PFC, but it by nature brings higher EMI noise, especially common mode (CM) noise. This paper deals with the modeling and analysis of DBPFC CM noise based on and compared with Boost PFC, noise propagation equivalent circuits of both topologies are deduced, and theoretical analysis illustrates the difference. Experiments are performed to validate the E M model and analysis.I. (b) Smcture 575 0-7803-8458-X/04/$20.00 02004 IEEE

AIM: To evaluate the effect of umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) transplantation on traumatic brain injury (TBI). MATERIAL and METHODS: UC-MSCs were isolated from human umbilical cord and TBI rat model was constructed. 30 male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group, TBI group and MSCs transplantation group. Rats in MSCs group received the injection of a total of 1.5 × 106 MSCs (25 μl) via ventricle at operated ventricular coordinates (0 at bregma, 1.5 mm at lateral, 1.1 mm at behind, 4.5 mm in depth). RESULTS: 80% confluence of cells was formed from tissue at day 10 and the amount of CD90, CD73, CD105 positive cells increased correspondingly. In TBI model, clear hyperemia, edema and obvious infiltration of inflammatory cells in brain tissue were found. However, the manifestations were alleviated after the treatment of MSCs. In MSCs group, GFP in the brain tissue and the area around the vessels were found after the injection, while the expression levels of micro-vessel density (MVD), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were elevated. CONCLUSION: UC-MSCs transplantation for treatment of acute TBI could effectively reduce the injury and improve the vascular reconstruction.
