Hadoop Performance Analysis Model with Deep Data Locality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Hadoop has become the base framework on the big data system via the simple concept that moving computation is cheaper than moving data. Hadoop increases a data locality in the Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) to improve the performance ...

Impacts of run‐of‐river hydropower on coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch): the role of density‐dependent survival

open access: yesEcosphere, 2021
Predicting whether anthropogenic sources of mortality have negative consequences at the level of population dynamics is challenged by mechanisms like density‐dependent survival that can amplify or offset the loss of individuals from anthropogenic ...

Long noncoding RNA ROR promotes breast cancer by regulating the TGF-β pathway

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2018
Background Breast cancer is the leading cause of oncological mortality among women. Efficient detection of cancer cells in an early stage and potent therapeutic agents targeting metastatic tumors are highly needed to improve survival rates.

Epidermal Loss of RORα Enhances Skin Inflammation in a MC903-Induced Mouse Model of Atopic Dermatitis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease featuring skin barrier dysfunction and immune dysregulation. Previously, we reported that the retinoid-related orphan nuclear receptor RORα was highly expressed in the epidermis of normal skin.

The Invalidity of the Laplace Law for Biological Vessels and of Estimating Elastic Modulus from Total Stress vs. Strain: a New Practical Method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The quantification of the stiffness of tubular biological structures is often obtained, both in vivo and in vitro, as the slope of total transmural hoop stress plotted against hoop strain. Total hoop stress is typically estimated using the "Laplace law."

Aspergillus fumigatus preexposure worsens pathology and improves control of Mycobacterium abscessus pulmonary infection in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Mutations in this chloride channel lead to mucus accumulation, subsequent recurrent pulmonary infections, and ...

Modelling liver tissue properties using a non-linear viscoelastic model ror surgery simulation [PDF]

open access: yesESAIM: Proceedings, 2002
In this work, we introduce an extension of the linear elastic tensor-mass method allowing fast computation of non-linear and visco-elastic mechanical forces and deformations for the simulation of biological soft tissue. We aim at developing a simulation tool for the planning of cryogenic surgical treatment of liver cancer.
