Symmetric Tensor Decomposition by an Iterative Eigendecomposition Algorithm [PDF]
We present an iterative algorithm, called the symmetric tensor eigen-rank-one iterative decomposition (STEROID), for decomposing a symmetric tensor into a real linear combination of symmetric rank-1 unit-norm outer factors using only eigendecompositions and least-squares fitting. Originally designed for a symmetric tensor with an order being a power of

The gut‐microbiota‐brain axis: Focus on gut steroids
Abstract There are over 1000 varieties of steroids that have been reported in nature, including the endogenous sex steroid hormones (i.e., progesterone, testosterone, and 17β‐estradiol) and corticosteroids which are mainly synthesized by gonads and adrenals, respectively.

DNA samples from five unrelated Japanese patients with 21-hydroxylase (21-OHase) deficiency were studied by Southern analysis using human 21-OHase cDNA. Patterns seen after digestion with not only TaqI but also KpnI showed that two out of the five patients were homozygous for a deletion of the 21-OHase B gene.

Abstract The placenta is a fetal endocrine organ that secretes many neuroactive factors, including steroids, that play critical roles in brain development. The study of the placenta‐brain axis and the links between placental function and brain development represents an emerging research area dubbed “neuroplacentology.” The placenta drives many ...

Background Steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency is the most common cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). Detection of underlying mutations in CYP21A2 gene encoding steroid 21-hydroxylase enzyme is helpful both for confirmation of diagnosis and ...

Steroids for DOPed Applications: A Compiler for Automated Data-Oriented Programming [PDF]
The wide-spread adoption of system defenses such as the randomization of code, stack, and heap raises the bar for code-reuse attacks. Thus, attackers utilize a scripting engine in target programs like a web browser to prepare the code-reuse chain, e.g., relocate gadget addresses or perform a just-in-time gadget search.

Cholestenoic acid, an endogenous cholesterol metabolite, is a potent γ-secretase modulator. [PDF]
BackgroundAmyloid-β (Aβ) 42 has been implicated as the initiating molecule in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD); thus, therapeutic strategies that target Aβ42 are of great interest.

Abstract Terpenoids are a diverse class of naturally occurring organic compounds, which derive from five‐carbon isoprene units and play crucial roles in physiology, ecological interactions such as defense mechanisms, or adaptation to environmental stresses.

A sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary with masculinization in a premenarchal girl [PDF]
A sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary is an extremely rare benign tumor; it usually is found during the second and third decades of life. Patients present with pelvic pain or a palpable abdominal mass.
