FARMINGTON, CT, May 29, 2011 (Press-News.org) Total shipments of tablet PC panels increased by 15.8% month-over-month, resulting in over 5 million units shipped for the first time in April. The increase can be attributed to the consumer market release of the iPad2 in March coupled with other launchings of new tablet PC products from various brands.

Global Information Inc. is pleased to present an annual information service for the electronic display industry, "Monthly Large Area TFT-LCD Panel Shipment Data" published monthly by Displaybank.

According to Ricky Park, Displaybank senior analyst, "looking at April Tablet PC panel shipments by inch, 9.7-inch panel shipment increased 25.6% M/M to 4.3M units, and 10.1-inch panel shipment increased 14.1% to 0.7M units. 9.7-inch took up the largest share, 84.9% of total Tablet PC panel shipment." In anticipation of next month's Galaxy Tab 10.1 new launch from Samsung, Displaybank expects to see a significant increase in 10.1-inch panel shipments onwards through May.

"Large-area TFT LCD panel shipments in April were 58M showing [a] 2.8% decrease M/M. However, large-area panel shipments in May to June are expected to increase as the set makers show movement to procure inventory at lower cost in preparation for 3Q peak season."

New treatment dissolves blood clots in brain tissue

2011-05-29

A new treatment that treats a subset of stroke patients by combining minimally invasive surgery, an imaging technique likened to "GPS for the brain," and the clot-busting drug t-PA appears to be safe and effective, according to a multicenter clinical trial led by Johns Hopkins researchers. The novel treatment, detailed for the first time at this week's European Stroke Conference in Hamburg, Germany, was developed for patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), a bleed in the brain that causes a clot to form within brain tissue. This clot builds up pressure and leaches ...

Age, gender and social advantage affect success in quitting smoking

2011-05-29

The study, commissioned by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and undertaken by the UK Centre for Tobacco Control Studies (UKCTCS), reviewed published studies from between 1990 and 2007 to establish success rates for the NHS smoking cessation services. It found that older smokers are more likely than young smokers to successfully quit, some men appear to be more successful at quitting than women despite the fact that more women attend the smoking cessation services, and more disadvantaged groups face greater challenges when giving up smoking. The ...

Falling on deaf ears

2011-05-29

How can someone with perfectly normal hearing become deaf to the world around them when their mind is on something else? New research funded by the Wellcome Trust suggests that focusing heavily on a task results in the experience of deafness to perfectly audible sounds. In a study published in the journal Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, researchers at UCL (University College London) demonstrate for the first time this phenomenon, which they term 'inattentional deafness'. "Inattentional deafness is a common everyday experience," explains Professor Nilli Lavie ...

The importance of 'inner values' -- female sparrows test the genetic make-up of their mates

2011-05-29

How do females select partners? Darwin's initial idea that the fittest males would be the most desirable and would therefore be most likely to secure partners has represented a cornerstone of evolutionary theory since the publication of "The Descent of Man" in 1871. Darwin proposed that secondary sexual characteristics enabled females to see at a glance which male was "best", i.e. best for every female. This male would be the chosen partner as he would pass on the best possible genes to the next generation, thereby increasing the fitness of the species. Towards the ...

Cystic fibrosis bacteria could help fight back against antibiotic resistance

2011-05-29

A bacteria which infects people with cystic fibrosis could help combat other antibiotic-resistant microbes, according to a team from Cardiff and Warwick Universities.

Now a surprising source of hope has emerged in the form of Burkholderia, a group of bacteria which can cause severe lung infections in people with the genetic ...

Stars help to track space junk

2011-05-29

A team of researchers from the Royal Institute and Observatory of the Navy (ROA) in Cádiz (Spain) has developed a method to track the movement of geostationary objects using the position of the stars, which could help to monitor space debris. The technique can be used with small telescopes and in places that are not very dark. Objects or satellites in geostationary orbit (GEO) can always be found above the same point on the Equator, meaning that they appear immobile when observed from Earth. By night, the stars appear to move around them, a feature that scientists have ...
