Cancer in myositis by Albert Selva-O'Callaghan, Maria Terrones-Peinador, Joana Rita Marques-Soares, Albert Gil-Vila

“…The immunosuppressive agents commonly used to treat myositis patients are known to favor the development of cancer, but this factor does not seem to be the main cause of the association. Most myositis patients who develop cancer are considered to have cancer-associated myositis, which suggests that there are some types of etiopathogenic relationship between these two conditions. …”

Analysis and research on propagation field strength characteristics of non-line-of-sight signal by Fengxun GONG, Ying ZHANG

“…In order to explore the diffraction loss caused by non-line-of-sight (NLOS ) propagation caused by obstacles in the airport communication path, the attenuation characteristics of signal field were studied.Firstly, based on the influence of different terrain environments on signal propagation in ITU-R P.1546, a combined signal field strength model was constructed with Deygout model.Secondly, according to the number of obstacles, the propagation characteristics of the received field strength varying with the height of obstacles were analyzed.The simulation results show that the higher the single obstacle is, the larger the Fresnel zone occupying 0.6F₁ is and the smaller the field strength is.In the dual obstacle path, the obstacle with increased height goes through the process of changing from secondary to main obstacle until only the main obstacle is left, so that the field strength gradually decreases.Thirdly, the relationship between secondary obstacle height and 0.6F₁ Fresnel zone was analyzed for field strength rise.Finally, the minimum threshold of the covered field strength was adjusted to determine whether the receiving device was blocked by obstacles and the signal was shielded.The above research results can provide a reference for simulating the distribution of obstacles in various airport scenarios in the future, and predicting whether the receiver is interfered by obstacles or affects the field intensity coverage.…”

NATURAL ICE MOUNDS OF THE MIDDLE AND SOUTHERN SAKHALIN MUDFLOW BASINS by Svetlana V. Rybalchenko, Konstantin V. Verkhovov

“…The mechanism of ice data formation is due to the hydro/meteorological features of the territory, as well as disturbance of the thermal, hydrological or hydrogeological regime of the debris flow basin. The main reason for the formation of natural ice mounds in the valley debris flow basins is disturbance of the hydrological regime of the catchment basin during debris flow formation, which mainly contributes to the annual solid runoff of first order watercourses. …”
