Adult Children of High-Conflict Marriages by Donna Davis

“…In the long run, children whose parents are in high-conflict marriages may not be any better off than children whose parents divorce. While divorce has been shown to create significant negative outcomes for many children over the course of their lives, new research shows that conflict in marriage can have lasting effects into adulthood as well.” …”

SERPINA1 mRNA as a Treatment for Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency by Brendan Connolly, Cleo Isaacs, Lei Cheng, Kirtika H. Asrani, Romesh R. Subramanian

“…Currently there is no specific treatment for liver disease associated with AAT deficiency. AAT lung disease is often treated with one of several serum protein replacement products; however, long-term studies of the effectiveness of SerpinA1 replacement therapy are not available, and it does not reduce liver damage in AAT deficiency. mRNA therapy could potentially target both the liver and lungs of AAT deficient patients. …”

Integrated intrusion detection model based on rough set and artificial immune by Ling ZHANG, Zhong-ying BAI, Shou-shan LUO, Kang XIE, Guan-ning CUI, Mao-hua SUN

“…According to the problems of intrusion detection,an integrated intrusion detection model based on rough set and artificial immune (RSAI-IID) was proposed by using rough set and integrating misuse detection and anomaly detection.The rough set method was used to achieve the vaccine which was injected in the model,to get better vaccine,and to optimum the performances of detection; misuse detection was used to get off the known intrusions; anomaly detection was used to detect the novel intrusions.RSAI-IID model was validated on KDD 99 dataset.The experimental results show its feasibility and effectiveness.…”

Integration of NMR and NMRC in the Investigation of the Pore Size Distribution of Tight Sandstone Reservoirs: A Case Study in the Upper Paleozoic of Dongpu Depression by Ning Zhu, Suping Yao, Xuejun Wang, Binfeng Xia, Yunxian Zhang

“…An integration analysis comprising X-ray diffraction (XRD), three beams of argon ion (TIB) polishing approach, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-pressure mercury intrusion (HPMI), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and nuclear magnetic resonance cryoporometry (NMRC) was applied to determine the pore structure of the tight sandstone reservoirs in the Upper Paleozoic of Dongpu Depression as well as their relationship with the physical properties of the reservoirs. NMRC offered the possibility to obtain the nanoscale (4-1400 nm) pore structure of the reservoirs directly and accurately. …”
