The Chaperonin GroESL Facilitates Caulobacter crescentus Cell Division by Supporting the Functions of the Z-Ring Regulators FtsA and FzlA

mBio, 2021
All organisms depend on mechanisms that protect proteins from misfolding and aggregation. GroESL is a highly conserved molecular chaperone that functions to prevent protein aggregation in organisms ranging from bacteria to humans.

Pediatric Idiopathic Multicentric Castleman Disease Is Often Severe But Responsive to Siltuximab

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD) is a potentially fatal immunologic disorder marked by widespread lymphadenopathy and inflammation. Siltuximab, an interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) inhibitor, is the only FDA‐approved treatment for adult patients with iMCD.

On Sugeno integral as an aggregation function [PDF]

Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 2000
The author studies the Sugeno integral with respect to a discrete fuzzy measure \(\mu: 2^n\to [0,1]\) (i.e., a monotone function with \(\mu(\emptyset)= 0\) and \(\mu(\{1,\dots, n\})= 1\). Identifying a real-valued function on \(\{1,\dots, n\}\) with a vector \((x_1,\dots, x_n)\) the Sugeno integral is considered as aggregation function, i.e., a real ...

The Impact of the COVID‐19 Pandemic on Childhood Cancer Survival: A Population‐Based Assessment of Survival Patterns Between 2015 and 2023 in Germany

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Numerous international studies have reported declines in new cancer diagnoses, delayed diagnoses and disruptions in cancer treatment following the implementation of COVID‐19 pandemic public health measures, raising concerns that these effects may ultimately contribute to increased cancer mortality.

Therapeutic Apheresis in Nigeria: A Multi‐Center Summary of Abstracts From the Inaugural Nigerian Society for Apheresis Scientific Meeting

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Therapeutic apheresis (TA) is an established treatment modality for hematologic, neurologic, and immunologic disorders, yet access remains severely limited in sub‐Saharan Africa. Donor apheresis, including platelet apheresis collection from healthy donors, represents an important complementary modality supporting blood product ...

EVALUATION OF PENALTY FUNCTIONS FOR SEMI-GLOBAL MATCHING COST AGGREGATION [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2012
The stereo matching method semi-global matching (SGM) relies on consistency constraints during the cost aggregation which are enforced by so-called penalty terms. This paper proposes new and evaluates four penalty functions for SGM.
