Therapeutic Applicability of Anti-Inflammatory and Proresolving Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid-Derived Lipid Mediators by Gerard L. Bannenberg

“…Arachidonate-derived eicosanoids, such as lipoxin A4, prostaglandin (PG)D2, PGF2α, PGE2, and PGD2-derived cyclopentenones exert specific roles in counter-regulating inflammation and turning on resolution. Recently recognized classes of autacoids derived from long-chain ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, the E- and D-series resolvins, protectin D1, and maresin 1, act as specialized mediators to dampen inflammation actively, afford tissue protection, stimulate host defense, and activate resolution. …”

Using Improved XGBoost Algorithm to Obtain Modified Atmospheric Refractive Index by Yanbo Mai, Zheng Sheng, Hanqing Shi, Qixiang Liao

“…Given that it is difficult to obtain the atmospheric refractive index of 100 meters (m)–3000°m over the ocean, this paper proposes an improved extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) algorithm based on comprehensive learning particle swarm optimization (CLPSO) operator to obtain them. Finally, the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and root mean-squared error (RMSE) are used as evaluation criteria to compare the prediction results of improved XGBoost algorithm with backpropagation (BP) neural network and traditional XGBoost algorithm. …”
