ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a relapsing autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. High‐dose intravenous methylprednisolone (IVMP) is the standard first‐line therapy for acute attacks, although some patients remain refractory.

Parallel and distributed computing [PDF]
AbstractAfter a decade of research, parallel processing is just becoming a standard instrument of high performance computing, which is used as naturally as any other specialised programming technique. ROLAND WISMÜLLER highlights some interesting trends in Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Dietary Protein Intake and Peritoneal Protein Losses in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients
ABSTRACT Introduction Peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients lose protein in their waste dialysate, potentially increasing their risk for malnutrition. We wished to determine whether there was any association between losses and dietary protein intake (DPI). Methods DPI was assessed from 24‐h dietary recall using Nutrics software.

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 ...

Cloud Service Community Detection for Real-World Service Networks Based on Parallel Graph Computing
Heterogeneous information networks (e.g. cloud service relation networks and social networks), where multiple-typed objects are interconnected, can be structured by big graphs. A major challenge for clustering in such big graphs is the complex structures

Parallel Computing Techniques [PDF]
Parallel computing means to divide a job into several tasks and use more than one processor simultaneously to perform these tasks. Assume you have developed a new estimation method for the parameters of a complicated statistical model. After you prove the asymptotic characteristics of the method (for instance, asymptotic distribution of the estimator),

Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Numerical computation for parallel plate thermoacoustic heat exchangers in standing wave oscillatory flow [PDF]
A simplified computational method for studying the heat transfer characteristics of parallel plate thermoacoustic heat exchangers is presented. The model integrates the thermoacoustic equations of the standard linear theory into an energy balance-based ...
