Absolute Lymphocyte Count Is Not a Suitable Alternative to CD4 Count for Determining Initiation of Antiretroviral Therapy in Fiji by Dashika A. Balak, Karen Bissell, Christine Roseveare, Sharan Ram, Rachel R. Devi, Stephen M. Graham

“…The currently used absolute lymphocyte count of ≤2300 cells/μL had a positive predictive value of 87% but a negative predictive value of only 17% for a CD4 of ≤350 cells/mm3 and if used as a surrogate for a CD4 of ≤500 cells/mm3 it would result in all HIV-infected individuals receiving ART including those not yet eligible. Weight, CD4 count, and absolute lymphocyte count increased significantly at 3 months following ART initiation. …”

Fast Task Scheduling With Model Predictive Control Integrating a Priority-Based Heuristic by Francesco Liberati, Manuel Donsante, Chiara Maria Francesca Cirino, Andrea Tortorelli

“…On average, the proposed MPC algorithm decreased by nearly 2% the makespan, compared to a state of the art scheduling heuristic, while having a comparable solving time, in the order of milliseconds, and while retaining (contrary to heuristics) all the flexibility and modelling power of the optimization based approaches (which took several hours to run on the test scenarios).…”

Whistler et l’esthétisme avant l’ouverture de laGrosvenor Gallery by Isabelle Énaud-Lechien

“…Si l’on s’accorde à penser que l’ouverture de la Grosvenor Gallery en 1877 marque une date essentielle de l’affirmation du courant esthétique, la participation de James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903) à cette exposition inaugurale pointe également un moment-clé de sa carrière, déjà étudié, en particulier au regard du procès qui s’ensuivit opposant le peintre d’origine américaine au grand critique d’art victorien John Ruskin (1819-1900). Aussi chercherons-nous ici établir ce qui, avant même cette date, motive à associer l’artiste à l’Esthétisme, en particulier dans les journaux caricaturaux. …”
