Q-MAF Shape Decomposition [PDF]

, 2001
This paper address the problems of generating a low dimensional representation of the shape variation present in a set of shapes represented by a number of landmark points. First, we will present alternatives to the featured Least-Squares Procrustes alignment based on the L?-norm and the L1-norm.

Clinical Proficiency of Low Hemoglobin Density and Microcyte Anemia Factor Parameters for the Diagnosis of Functional Iron Deficiency from Absolute Iron Deficiency in Chronic Inflammation [PDF]

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ’Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Īlām
Introduction:  Inflammatory conditions affect iron status due to inflammation-induced changes in acute-phase proteins. However, distinguishing between functional and absolute iron deficiency severity can aid early treatment, necessitating the exploration

Substantially Altered Local and Systemic Immunity in Ischemia‐Free Versus Conventional Liver Transplantation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates how ischemia‐free liver transplantation (IFLT) shapes both local and systemic immune responses compared with conventional liver transplantation (CLT). Our findings demonstrate that IFLT confers significant immunological protection by attenuating the STAT3‐HIF‐1α axis and enhancing the Heme‐HMOX1 pathway, two regulatory networks ...

The mixture assessment or allocation factor: conceptual background, estimation algorithms and a case study example

Environmental Sciences Europe, 2023
Current approaches for the prospective regulatory assessment of chemicals do not account sufficiently for elevated mixture risks. The Mixture Assessment Factor (MAF, better labeled a Mixture Allocation Factor) has been suggested for mixtures of ...

Integrated Transcriptomics Reveals Evolutionary Trajectories and Cell Density‐Dependent Mechanisms in Aldosterone‐Producing Adenomas

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aldosterone‐producing adenomas (APAs) develop via two distinct paths: directly from adrenal zona glomerulosa (zG) cells, or stepwise from zG cells through aldosterone‐producing micronodules (APMs) before progressing to APAs. Advanced single‐cell and spatial analyses identified distinct cell states linked to oxidative stress and cell–cell interactions ...
