Escherichia coli in the T11-12 Thoracic Vertebrae: A Case Report by Weng D, Zhou H, Huang G, Cao Q, Wang H, Cao Z, Xie Q

“…Early diagnosis and precise management are essential for improving outcomes, given the limitations of traditional microbiology detection methods in identifying the causative pathogens.Case Presentation: A 68-year-old immunocompetent male presented with recurrent fever, fatigue, loss of appetite and initial evidence of sepsis and AKI upon admission. With the prompt computed tomography (CT)-guided percutaneous biopsy of the thoracic vertebrae, Escherichia coli was identified as the causative pathogen using metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS). …”

Research on(t,k)-diagnosability for exchanged hypercube network by Xi XIONG, Jia-rong LIANG, Qiang MA

“…Fault diagnosis was an important part in the processing of network system repair.PMC was a diagnosis model which was simple and easy to be understood.Through analysis of the structure of exchanged hypercube,a generalization measure of fault diagnosis for the network system was provided,called (t,k)-fault diagnosis method.By computing,it is shown that EH(s,p) is <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mrow> <mo>( </mo> <mrow> <msup> <mn>2 </mn> <mrow> <mfrac> <mrow> <mi>s </mi> <mo>+ </mo> <mi>p </mi> <mo>− </mo> <mn>1 </mn> </mrow> <mn>2 </mn> </mfrac> </mrow> </msup> <mo>,</mo> <mi>s </mi> <mo>+ </mo> <mn>1 </mn> </mrow> <mo>) </mo> </mrow> </math>-diagnosable and conditional <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mrow> <mo>( </mo> <mrow> <mfrac> <mrow> <msup> <mn>2 </mn> <mrow> <mi>s </mi> <mo>+ </mo> <mi>p </mi> <mo>+ </mo> <mn>1 </mn> </mrow> </msup> <mo>− </mo> <mn>2 </mn> <mi>s </mi> </mrow> <mrow> <mi>p </mi> <mo>+ </mo> <mn>1 </mn> </mrow> </mfrac> <mo>,</mo> <mn>2 </mn> <mi>s </mi> </mrow> <mo>) </mo> </mrow> </math> -diagnosable,where 1≤s≤p.The result shows that the(t,k)-diagnosability of EH(s,p) is <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <msup> <mn>2 </mn> <mrow> <mfrac> <mrow> <mi>s </mi> <mo>+ </mo> <mi>p </mi> <mo>− </mo> <mn>1 </mn> </mrow> <mn>2 </mn> </mfrac> </mrow> </msup> </math> ,which is bigger than its ordinary diagnosability s+1,and the conditional (t,k)-diagnosability is <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mrow> <mfrac> <mrow> <msup> <mn>2 </mn> <mrow> <mi>s </mi> <mo>+ </mo> <mi>p </mi> <mo>+ </mo> <mn>1 </mn> </mrow> </msup> <mo>− </mo> <mn>2 </mn> <mi>s </mi> </mrow> <mrow> <mi>p </mi> <mo>+ </mo> <mn>1 </mn> </mrow> </mfrac> </mrow> </math>,which is bigger than its ordinary conditional diagnosability 4s-3.Above results present the important theory basis for fault diagnosis of exchanged hypercube network.…”
