Incidentally Identified Pulmonary AVM: An Unusual Cause for Stroke in a Young Patient by Vinod Kalapurackal Mathai, Dale Sebire, Scarlett Bowen

“…Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation is an uncommon though important potential source for embolic right-to-left extracardiac shunt as a cause for both silent and clinically evident stroke. We present this case to highlight this pathology as a cause for stroke, the importance of treating this malformation, even if incidentally identified, and finally the role of echocardiography in screening for extracardiac shunt and indicating those patients that may benefit from further investigations looking for extracardiac shunt.…”

Modeling and countermeasures of a social network-based botnet with strong destroy-resistance by Tao YIN, Shi-cong LI, Yu-peng TUO, Yong-zheng ZHANG

“…To defeat botnets and ensure cyberspace security,a novel social network-based botnet with strong destroy-resistance (DR-SNbot),as well as its corresponding countermeasure,was proposed.DR-SNbot constructed command and control servers (C＆C-Servers) based on social network.Each C＆C-Server corresponded to a unique pseudo-random nickname.The botmaster issues commanded by hiding them in diaries using information hiding techniques,and then a novel C＆C channel was established.When different proportions of C＆C-Servers were invalid,DR-SNbot would send out different levels of alarms to inform attackers to construct new C＆C-Servers.Then,DR-SNbot could automatically repair C＆C communication to ensure its strong destroy-resistance.Under the experimental settings,DR-SNbot could resume the C＆C communication in a short period of time to keep 100% of the control rate even if all the current C＆C-Servers were invalid.Finally,a botnet nickname detecting method was proposed based on the difference of lexical features of legal nicknames and pseudo-random nicknames.Experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively (precision:96.88%,recall:93%) detect pseudo-random nicknames generated by social network-based botnets with customized algorithms.…”
