Histo-blood group glycans in the context of personalized medicine [PDF]
Background: A subset of histo-blood group antigens including ABO and Lewis are oligosaccharide structures which may be conjugated to lipids or proteins. They are known to be important recognition motifs not only in the context of blood transfusions, but also in infection and cancer development.

Blood ties: ABO is a trans-species polymorphism in primates [PDF]
The ABO histo-blood group, the critical determinant of transfusion incompatibility, was the first genetic polymorphism discovered in humans. Remarkably, ABO antigens are also polymorphic in many other primates, with the same two amino acid changes responsible for A and B specificity in all species sequenced to date.

A Fully Unsupervised Instance Segmentation Technique for White Blood Cell Images [PDF]
White blood cells, also known as leukocytes are group of heterogeneously nucleated cells which act as salient immune system cells. These are originated in the bone marrow and are found in blood, plasma, and lymph tissues. Leukocytes kill the bacteria, virus and other kind of pathogens which invade human body through phagocytosis that in turn results ...

Turning ABO$_3$ antiferroelectrics into ferroelectrics: Design rules for practical rotation-driven ferroelectricity in double perovskites and A$_3$B$_2$O$_7$ Ruddlesden-Popper compounds [PDF]
Ferroic transition metal oxides, which exhibit spontaneous elastic, electrical, magnetic or toroidal order, exhibit functional properties that find use in ultrastable solid-state memories to sensors and medical imaging technologies. To realize multifunctional behavior, where one order parameter can be coupled to the conjugate field of another order ...

Study of the risk-adjusted pricing methodology model with methods of Geometrical Analysis [PDF]
Families of exact solutions are found to a nonlinear modification of the Black-Scholes equation. This risk-adjusted pricing methodology model (RAPM) incorporates both transaction costs and the risk from a volatile portfolio. Using the Lie group analysis we obtain the Lie algebra admitted by the RAPM equation.

Raman signatures of monoclinic distortion in (Ba$_{1-x}$Sr$_{x}$)$_{3}$CaNb$_{2}$O$_{9}$ complex perovskites [PDF]
Octahedral tilting is most common distortion process observed in centrosymmetric perovskite compounds (ABO$_{3}$). Indeed, crucial physical properties of this oxide stem from the tilts of BO$_{6}$ rigid octahedra. In microwave ceramics with perovskite-type structure, there is a close relation between the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency ...

E-Quarantine: A Smart Health System for Monitoring Coronavirus Patients for Remotely Quarantine [PDF]
Coronavirus becomes officially a global pandemic due to the speed spreading off in various countries. An increasing number of infected with this disease causes the Inability problem to fully care in hospitals and afflict many doctors and nurses inside the hospitals.

Spectral analysis of the blood flow in the foot microvascular bed during thermal testing in patients with diabetes mellitus [PDF]
Timely diagnostics of microcirculatory system abnormalities which are the most severe diabetic complications, is a significant problem of modern health care. Functional abnormalities manifest themselves earlier than the structural one and their assessment is the focus of present-day studies.

Automated Detection of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Subtypes from Microscopic Blood Smear Images using Deep Neural Networks [PDF]
An estimated 300,000 new cases of leukemia are diagnosed each year which is 2.8 percent of all new cancer cases and the prevalence is rising day by day. The most dangerous and deadly type of leukemia is acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), which affects people of all age groups, including children and adults.

On Algebraic properties of ABO-Blood Type Inheritance Pattern [PDF]
We generate an algebra on blood phenotypes with multiplication based on human ABO-blood type inheritance pattern. We assume that during meiosis gametes are not chosen randomly. For this algebra we investigate its algebraic properties. Namely, the lattice of ideals and the associative enveloping algebra are described.
