Reduction and Refinement [PDF]
In this paper we explore the relation between refinement and reduction, especially as it is used in the context of cryptography. We show how refinement is a special case of reduction, and more interestingly, how reduction is an instance of a novel generalisation, ''refinement with context''.

Relational Concurrent Refinement: Timed Refinement [PDF]
Data refinement in a state-based language such as Z is defined using a relational model in terms of the behaviour of abstract programs. Downward and upward simulation conditions form a sound and jointly complete methodology to verify relational data refinements, which can be checked on an event-by-event basis rather than per trace.

IntroductionThe killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) play a pivotal role in modulating the NK cell responses, for instance, through interaction with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules.

The genes of the leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor (LILR) family map to the leukocyte receptor complex (LRC) on chromosome 19, and consist of both activating and inhibiting entities. These receptors are often involved in regulating immune responses,

Long-read sequencing approaches have considerably improved the quality and contiguity of genome assemblies. Such platforms bear the potential to resolve even extremely complex regions, such as multigenic immune families and repetitive stretches of DNA ...

Surgical or Nonsurgical Facial Rejuvenation: The Patients’ Choice
Background:. Patients seeking a pan-facial rejuvenation may not receive appropriate medical advice on surgical versus nonsurgical treatments, resulting in those who are best-suited for surgery receiving nonsurgical options, and vice versa.

Sensory Symptoms Associated with Aesthetic Botulinum Toxin A Treatments
Background:. A retrospective review of patients who switched from onabotulinumtoxinA (onaA) and/or abobotulinumtoxinA (aboA) to incobotulinumtoxinA (incoA) found anecdotal reports of differences in “feel,” including a “lighter” feel or treatment ...

Neuromodulating the SMAS for Natural Dynamic Results
Summary:. Physicians using neuromodulators need to develop an in-depth and holistic understanding of the facial musculature as a single, large, functional structure that does not work in isolation.

Testing refinements by refining tests [PDF]
One of the potential benefits of formal methods is that they offer the possibility of reducing the costs of testing. A specification acts as both the benchmark against which any implementation is tested, and also as the means by which tests are generated.

The Genetic Mechanisms Driving Diversification of the KIR Gene Cluster in Primates
The activity and function of natural killer (NK) cells are modulated through the interactions of multiple receptor families, of which some recognize MHC class I molecules.
