Two accelerated gradient-based iteration methods for solving the Sylvester matrix equation AX + XB = C by Huiling Wang, Nian-Ci Wu, Yufeng Nie

“…In this paper, combining the precondition technique and momentum item with the gradient-based iteration algorithm, two accelerated iteration algorithms are presented for solving the Sylvester matrix equation $ AX+XB = C $. Sufficient conditions to guarantee the convergence properties of the proposed algorithms are analyzed in detail. …”

Blind Spot in the Radar of MEST-C Score: Type and Severity of Tubulointerstitial Nephritis in IgA Nephropathy by Iram Asrar, Mudassar Hussain, Aurangzeb Afzal, Usman Hassan, Sheeba Ishtiaq

“…The updated version of predictive classification for immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) prognosis “The Oxford Classification” identifies five histopathological features including mesangial hypercellularity (M), endocapillary proliferation (E), segmental glomerulosclerosis (S), tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis (T) and crescents (C), the MEST-C. However, few studies suggest that tubulointerstitial inflammation, which is not included in the MEST-C, is also linked to disease progression and is, consequently, a neglected determinant of prognosis among others. …”

Protein tyrosine kinase but not protein kinase C inhibition blocks receptor induced alveolar macrophage activation by K. Pollock, M. T. Withnall

“…The selective enzyme inhibitors genistein and Ro 31-8220 were used to assess the importance of protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) and protein kinase C (PKC), respectively, in N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (FMLP) induced generation of superoxide anion and thromboxane B2 (TXB2) in guinea-pig alveolar macrophages (AM). …”

Association of the Interleukin-10-592C/A Polymorphism and Cervical Cancer Risk: A Meta-Analysis by Brehima Diakite, Yaya Kassogue, Mamoudou Maiga, Guimogo Dolo, Oumar Kassogue, Jonah Musa, Imran Morhason-Bello, Ban Traore, Cheick Bougadari Traore, Bakarou Kamate, Aissata Coulibaly, Sekou Bah, Sellama Nadifi, Robert Murphy, Jane L. Holl, Lifang Hou

“…A literature review showed some discrepancies regarding the association of -592C/A with the risk of cervical cancer. To allow more precise analysis of the data by increasing the number of cases studied and more acceptable generalization by considering results from different sources, the present meta-analysis was performed on available published studies that explored the relationship between SNP-592C/A of the IL-10 gene and the risk of cervical cancer. …”

Charge doping into spin minority states mediates doubling of T C in ferromagnetic CrGeTe3 by Liam Trzaska, Lei Qiao, Matthew D. Watson, Monica Ciomaga Hatnean, Igor Marković, Edgar Abarca Morales, Tommaso Antonelli, Cephise Cacho, Geetha Balakrishnan, Wei Ren, Silvia Picozzi, Phil D. C. King

“…Together with density functional theory calculations and Monte Carlo simulations, we show that, surprisingly, the increased T C is mediated by the population of spin-minority Cr t 2g states, forming a half-metallic 2D electron gas. …”

A Rare Case of C2 Sensory Blockade with Preserved Phrenic Nerve Function in an Obstetric Patient by John C. Coffman, Kasey Fiorini, Meghan Cook, Robert H. Small

“…We report the unusual presentation of an obstetric patient that remained hemodynamically stable and had the preserved ability to initiate breaths despite sensory blockade up to C2. The presence of differential motor and sensory block documented in this case helped enable the patient to be managed with noninvasive ventilatory support until the high blockade regressed and we are not aware of any other similar reports in literature.…”
