AXIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF MORAL AND LEGAL DECISION-MAKING by I. M. Hoian

“…The study shows that every necessary moral and legal decision taken by a person is futurologically balanced in the emotional sense, rationally reasoned and morally perceptible in the context of man’s beliefs about good and evil, and realized with necessity in the personal system of reference values that determines the style and manner of individual and social behaviour in the context of material and spiritual values and is an axiological foundation for making all types of moral and legal decisions. …”

Synergistic Effects of Cabozantinib and EGFR-Specific CAR-NK-92 Cells in Renal Cell Carcinoma by Qing Zhang, Kang Tian, Jinjing Xu, Haixu Zhang, Liantao Li, Qiang Fu, Dafei Chai, Huizhong Li, Junnian Zheng

“…Our results showed that the CAR-NK-92 cells lyse RCC cells in an EGFR-specific manner. Treatment with cabozantinib could increase EGFR and decrease PD-L1 membrane surface expression in RCC cells and enhance the killing ability of CAR-NK-92 cells against the RCC cells in vitro. …”

In Vivo Quantitative Measurement of Arthritis Activity Based on Hydrophobically Modified Glycol Chitosan in Inflammatory Arthritis: More Active than Passive Accumulation by Kyeong Soon Park, Jin Hee Kang, Keum Hee Sa, Hee Beom Koo, Hyun Jung Cho, Eon Jeong Nam, In Chan Youn, Kwang Meyung Kim, In San Kim, Ick Chan Kwon, Kui Won Choi, Young Mo Kang

“…Quantitative analysis of fluorescence after treatment with methotrexate showed a significant decrease in TPC in a dose-dependent manner. Histologic evaluation confirmed that the mechanism underlying selective accumulation of HGC-Cy5.5 within synovitis tissues included enhanced phagocytosis of the probe by Mac-1-expressing macrophages as well as enhanced permeability through leaky vessels. …”

Fourier or Wavelet bases as counterpart self-attention in spikformer for efficient visual classification by Qingyu Wang, Qingyu Wang, Duzhen Zhang, Xinyuan Cai, Tielin Zhang, Bo Xu

“…However, it seems that self-attention is not always necessary, especially in sparse spike-form calculation manners. In this article, we innovatively replace vanilla SSA (using dynamic bases calculating from Query and Key) with spike-form Fourier transform, wavelet transform, and their combinations (using fixed triangular or wavelets bases), based on a key hypothesis that both of them use a set of basis functions for information transformation. …”

Bacterial cytolysin during meningitis disrupts the regulation of glutamate in the brain, leading to synaptic damage. by Carolin Wippel, Jana Maurer, Christina Förtsch, Sabrina Hupp, Alexandra Bohl, Jiangtao Ma, Timothy J Mitchell, Stephanie Bunkowski, Wolfgang Brück, Roland Nau, Asparouh I Iliev

“…In mouse astrocytes, pneumolysin initiated the release of glutamate in a calcium-dependent manner. We propose that pneumolysin plays a significant synapto- and dendritotoxic role in pneumococcal meningitis by initiating glutamate release from astrocytes, leading to subsequent glutamate-dependent synaptic damage. …”

Event Detection and Identification of Influential Spreaders in Social Media Data Streams by Leilei Shi, Yan Wu, Lu Liu, Xiang Sun, Liang Jiang

“…In addition, most existing methods focus only on event detection and are unable to identify either influential spreaders or key event-related posts, thus making it challenging to track momentous events in a timely manner. To address these problems, we propose a Hypertext-Induced Topic Search (HITS) based Topic-Decision method (TD-HITS), and a Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) based Three-Step model (TS-LDA). …”
