A Case of Recalcitrant Plantar Warts Associated with Statin Use by Aaron G. Wernham, Shireen S. Velangi

“…Following a patient initiated decision to discontinue their statin medication, we observed rapid clearance of plantar warts without change to standard therapy or their environment. This case correlates with emerging literature demonstrating a link between statin medication and proliferation of HPV through increased levels of FOXP3+ regulatory T cells.…”

Importance of Distribution Type on Bearing Capacity of an Embedded Foundation in Spatially Varying Soils by Jiwei Han, Xiaoming Liu, Yongxin Wu, Xuhui Zhou

“…Firstly, Monte Carlo simulations are carried out to discuss the effect of distribution type, nonstationary gradient parameter, and horizontal autocorrelation length on the bearing capacity from the standpoint of mean value and standard deviation. Then, the influence of the distribution type on the failure probability of nonstationary random soil is also investigated, with the failure probability for the Beta distribution being demonstrated to be always larger than that for the Lognormal and Gamma distribution.…”

Data sharing scheme supporting secure outsourced computation in wireless body area network by Wei-wei ZHANG, Yu-zhao ZHANG, Chao HUANG, Ru ZHANG, Yi-xian YANG

“…How to effectively protect the security of data sharing in WBAN was a key problem to be solved urgently.The traditional CP-ABE mechanism had a 〝one to many〝 data security communication function which was suitable for access control in WBAN,but it had high computational complexity and did not support attribute revocation.Fully considering of limitations on computation and storage of sensor nodes and dynamic user attribute in WBAN,a CP-ABE scheme was proposed which was provably secure against CPA under the standard model and supported attributes revocation,outsourced encryption and decryption.Compared with the proposed schemes,the computation burden on senor nodes is greatly reduced and the user's attribution can be revoked immediately and fine grained while meeting the demand of its security in the proposed scheme.…”

25 Gbit/s transmission performance using duo-binary detection with 10 Gbit/s-PON receiver by Yongjia YIN, Yong GUO, Zhuang MA

“…IEEE has formed the 100 Gbit/s-EPON Task Force to develop next 100 Gbit/s-PON standards，and the duo-binary(DB) detection is one of the baseband technology options.25 Gbit/s DB detection transmission performance with 10 Gbit/s-PON receiver was been experimentally demonstrated.Because the bandwidth of 10 Gbit/s- PON receiver is obviously limited,the 25 Gbit/s DB output signal from 10 Gbit/s-PON receiver will be affected by the inter-symbol interference(ISI).The experiment results show that the system receiving sensitivity based on direct decision method is only -22 dBm.However,the system receiving sensitivity can be up to -24.5 dBm by using the most simplified maximum likelihood sequence estimation(MLSE) soft decision method.…”
