Complexity of immunobiology of tumor necrosis factor and novel anti-TNF therapy by S. А. Nedospasov

“…Systemic anti-cytokine therapy is known to be accompanied by undesirable side effects, which can hypothetically be explained by the neutralization of these protective functions. Thus, we developed prototypes of TNF blockers which limit the bioavailability of this cytokine only from its main “pathogenic” source – myeloid cells. …”

High-Voltage CVT Fault Diagnosis Based on Effective Data Recognition and Multi-dimensional Information Fusion by Huishan ZHANG

“…In view of the poor identification of the effective data in online monitoring of high-voltage capacitor voltage transformer (CVT), this paper proposes a method for effective data identification based on the analysis of data correlation coefficients, with utilization of the data characteristics that multiple online monitoring data sources exhibit linear correlation. To address the prevalent problem in current high-voltage CVT fault diagnosis, such as limited information sources, poor accuracy, and significant interference in partial discharge devices leading to compromised fault signal detection and accuracy, a fault diagnosis method based on multi-dimensional information fusion is proposed. …”
