Linear Combinations of Univalent Mappings with Complex Coefficients by Zhihong Liu, Yulin Cai, Ziwei Wang, Lei Shi, Yingchun Li

“…In this paper, we study the linear combinations of two univalent mappings with complex coefficients, and we derive several sufficient conditions that the linear combinations of these mappings are locally univalent and convex in one direction. Several examples are constructed to demonstrate the main results.…”

Indirect treatment comparison of lanadelumab and a C1-esterase inhibitor in pediatric patients with hereditary angioedema by Maureen Watt, Rachel Goldgrub, Mia Malmenas, Katrin Haeussler

“…To avoid convergence issues and an underpowered analysis due to the small sample size (n = 29), the base case was defined as Poisson regression analyses on monthly attack rate adjusting for one covariate (baseline attack rate). Model selection among unadjusted, adjusted and weighted regression models was conducted through the Akaike and Bayesian Information Criteria. …”

Surface functionalization of titanium implants with controlled-release glutathione conjugate for antioxidant and osteogenesis by Huichuan Xu, Kosuke Nozaki, Ziniu Yu, Nobuyuki Kawashima, Takeshi Ueno, Huaze Wu, Hao Wu, Noriyuki Wakabayashi

“…X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed differences in the chemical composition, accompanied by concurrent sulfur and phosphorus peaks, indicating the synthesis and covalent binding of the VPA-GSH conjugates onto the Ti surfaces. Treating Ti surfaces with improved hydrophilicity containing diverse functional groups effectively enhanced MC3T3-E1 cell attachment. …”

Preclinical Efficacy and Proteomic Prediction of Molecular Targets for s-cal14.1b and s-cal14.2b Conotoxins with Antitumor Capacity in Xenografts of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma by Angélica Luna-Nophal, Fernando Díaz-Castillo, Vanessa Izquierdo-Sánchez, Jesús B. Velázquez-Fernández, Mario Orozco-Morales, Luis Lara-Mejía, Johana Bernáldez-Sarabia, Noemí Sánchez-Campos, Oscar Arrieta, José Díaz-Chávez, Jorge-Ismael Castañeda-Sánchez, Alexei-Fedorovish Licea-Navarro, Saé Muñiz-Hernández

“…And the therapeutic effects of both conotoxins were evaluated in MPM mouse xenografts. s-cal14.1b and s-cal14.2b induced apoptosis and cytotoxicity in 2D and 3D cultures. However, only s-cal14.1b modified spheroid growth. Approximately 600 proteins exhibited important differential expression, which was more heterogeneous in H2452 vs MSTO-211H spheroids. …”
