The Second Raabe's Test and Other Series Tests [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
The classical D'Alembert's Ratio Test is a powerful test that we learn from calculus to determine convergence for a series of positive terms. Its range of applicability and ease of computation makes this test extremely appealing. However, it admits an inconclusive case when the limiting ratio of the terms equals 1. Several series tests like Raabe's and

Ablation of LRP6 in alpha‐smooth muscle actin‐expressing cells abrogates lung inflammation and fibrosis upon bleomycin‐induced lung injury

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 6 (LRP6) is a key receptor for the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf1 (DKK1). DKK1 protein expression is induced in a bleomycin (BLM)‐induced lung injury model. We show that DKK1 induces proinflammatory and profibrotic genes in lung fibroblasts.

Saving lives through early diagnosis: the promise and role of point of care testing for sickle cell disease

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, 2021
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a devastating and under‐recognised global child health issue affecting over 300,000 infants annually, with the highest prevalence in India and sub‐Saharan Africa. Most affected infants born in low‐ and middle‐income countries

Immunoregulatory mechanisms of the arachidonic acid pathway in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 7, Page 927-951, April 2025.
The central role of the arachidonic acid (AA) pathway in anticancer immunity. Enzymes and metabolites of the AA pathway can play both immunosuppressive and immunostimulatory roles in the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, their tailored targeting could be beneficial as a standalone therapy or in combination with current cancer immunotherapy.

Towards Better Test Coverage: Merging Unit Tests for Autonomous Systems [PDF]

open access: yesNASA Formal Methods (2022), 2022
We present a framework for merging unit tests for autonomous systems. Typically, it is intractable to test an autonomous system for every scenario in its operating environment. The question of whether it is possible to design a single test for multiple requirements of the system motivates this work. First, we formally define three attributes of a test:

To test or to treat? an analysis of influenza testing and Antiviral treatment strategies using economic computer modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Due to the unpredictable burden of pandemic influenza, the best strategy to manage testing, such as rapid or polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and antiviral medications for patients who present with influenza-like illness (ILI) is unknown ...

The solution supramolecular structure of α2 → 8 polysialic acid suggests a structural cause for its low immunogenicity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
α2 → 8 polysialic acid elicits poor immunogenicity. Small‐angle scattering shows a supramolecular structure with parallel‐chain binding, although in different forms at μm and mm calcium. The major histocompatibility complex requires molecular weights around 2000 Da to produce antibodies, and 2000 Da polysialic oligomers will bind in these structures ...
