Using the concept of the Dynamic State Index for a scale-dependent analysis of atmospheric blocking

Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2019
The present study investigates the phenomenon of atmospheric blocking using a cascade of Dynamic State Indices. The different DSI variants signalize model dependent aspects of atmospheric blockings, which allows for a scale-dependent analysis of the ...

Stratification of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps by distinct sinonasal microbial communities and their clinical and pathological correlations

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a heterogeneous inflammatory condition. Dysbiosis is commonly observed. This study identified distinct sinonasal microbial communities in CRSwNP patients and explored their clinical and pathological associations. Two distinct microbial communities were identified: community type 1 (CT1), dominated by

The association between dual sensory impairment and social participation among older adults in China: a moderated mediation model of activities of daily living and depressive symptoms

BMC Geriatrics
Background While dual sensory impairment (DSI) is known to reduce social participation (SP) in older adults, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study was to ascertain: (1) whether ADL mediates the relationship between ...

Rogue waves in the Davey-Stewartson equation

, 2012
General rogue waves in the Davey-Stewartson-I equation are derived by the bilinear method. It is shown that the simplest (fundamental) rogue waves are line rogue waves which arise from the constant background with a line profile and then disappear into ...

Three‐Dimensional Influence of Photobiomodulation on Adipose‐Derived Stem Cell Behavior

Journal of Biophotonics, EarlyView.
Photobiomodulation (PBM) at 825 nm is evaluated on adipose‐derived stem cells cultured in 2D and 3D models. PBM enhanced cell viability and proliferation, with 5 J/cm2 showing strong effects in 2D, and 10 J/cm2 in 3D spheroids. Results show 3D provides a more physiologically relevant platform for assessing PBM‐induced regenerative responses.

Oxymatrine Inhibits Epithelial‐Mesenchymal Transition to Alleviate Airway Remodeling in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease by Suppressing the TGF‐β1/Smad Pathway

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored the therapeutic efficacy of oxymatrine (OMT, C15H24N2O2) in a murine model of cigarette smoke (CS)‐induced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and elucidated its underlying mechanisms. A COPD model was established in mice through prolonged exposure to CS, followed by intraperitoneal administration of OMT (50 mg/kg)

Spectral Analysis of Multi-dimensional Self-similar Markov Processes

, 2010
In this paper we consider a discrete scale invariant (DSI) process $\{X(t), t\in {\bf R^+}\}$ with scale $l>1$. We consider to have some fix number of observations in every scale, say $T$, and to get our samples at discrete points $\alpha^k, k\in {\bf W}$
