Comprehensive Characterization of 98 Chinese Cases of Genetic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob Disease With T188K Mutation

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To characterize the demographic, clinical, and laboratory features of the Chinese patients of genetic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease with T188K variant (T188K‐gCJD), the most common subtype of genetic prion diseases (gPrDs) in China. Methods In this nationwide retrospective study, data from 98 genetically confirmed T188K‐gCJD patients ...

BlockPred-DRL: A DRL Reward Design Method Based on CNN Blocking Prediction for RMSA in EON

open access: yesIEEE Access
Existing reward designs for DRL-based Routing, Modulation, and Spectrum Assignment (RMSA) in Elastic Optical Networks (EONs) often emphasize immediate allocation outcomes while neglecting the risk of future blocking.

Multi-year predictability of climate, drought, and wildfire in southwestern North America

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Past severe droughts over North America have led to massive water shortages and increases in wildfire frequency. Triggering sources for multi-year droughts in this region include randomly occurring atmospheric blocking patterns, ocean impacts on ...

A comparison of alternative methods to compute conditional genotype probabilities for genetic evaluation with finite locus models

open access: yesGenetics Selection Evolution, 2003
An increased availability of genotypes at marker loci has prompted the development of models that include the effect of individual genes. Selection based on these models is known as marker-assisted selection (MAS). MAS is known to be efficient especially

Peripheral Neutrophil Activation and Extracellular Trap Formation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Markers of neutrophil activation are increased in plasma during ALS, and markers of NET formation associate with ALS survival. ABSTRACT Objectives Peripheral neutrophil levels in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) inversely correlate with survival, suggesting a role for neutrophils in disease progression.

Estimation of blocking probabilities in cellular networks with dynamic channel assignment

open access: yes, 2002
Blocking probabilities in cellular mobile communication networks using dynamic channel assignment are hard to compute for realistic sized systems. This computational difficulty is due to the structure of the state space, which imposes strong coupling ...

OPTIMAL CHANNEL ALLOCATION IN CELLULAR SYSTEMS

open access: yesJournal of ICT, 2003
We address the problem of determining the optimal number of reserved and unreserved channels in cellular networks with integrated voice/data traffic. Four prioritized channel assignment schemes are considered for which the optimal number of channels for ...

Plasma EV Proteomics Identifies ECM Remodeling and Inflammatory Proteins LUM and C7 as Candidate Biomarkers in FSHD

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most debilitating and common muscular dystrophies. Despite its severity, no approved therapy exists for FSHD patients. However, several therapeutic candidates are currently under development, and some have recently entered clinical trials, marking the need for reliable ...

Rheumatoid Arthritis and Coronary Artery Calcium Progression: A Case Cohort Analysis From ELSA‐Brasil

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective To investigate the association between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and coronary artery calcium (CAC) prevalence, incidence, and progression over four years in adults without prior cardiovascular disease. Methods A case‐cohort study within the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Adult Health (ELSA‐Brasil) included 585 participants (86 patients with ...

Efficient estimation of blocking probabilities in non-stationary loss networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
This paper considers estimation of blocking probabilities in a nonstationary loss network. Invoking the so called MOL (Modified Offered Load) approximation, the problem is transformed into one requiring the solution of blocking probabilities in a ...
