Mutations in SPINK5, encoding a serine protease inhibitor, cause Netherton syndrome

We describe here eleven different mutations in SPINK5, encoding the serine protease inhibitor LEKTI, in 13 families with Netherton syndrome (NS, MIM256500). Most of these mutations predict premature termination codons. These results disclose a critical role of SPINK5 in epidermal barrier function and immunity, and suggest a new pathway for high serum IgE levels and atopic manifestations.

Improving the Timeliness of Turning Signals for Business Cycles with Monthly Data

The conventional growth rate measures (such as month‐on‐month, year‐on‐year growth rates and 6‐month smoothed annualized rate adopted by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics and Economic Cycle Research Institute) are popular and can be easily obtained by computing the growth rate for monthly data based on a fixed comparison benchmark, although they do not make good use of the information underlying the economic series. By focusing on the monthly data, this paper proposes the k‐month kernel‐weighted annualized rate (k‐MKAR), which includes most existing growth rate measures as special cases. The proposed k‐MKAR measure involves the selection of smoothing parameters that are associated with the accuracy and timeliness for detecting the change in business turning points. That is, the comparison base is flexible and is likely to vary for different series under consideration. A data‐driven procedure depending upon the stepwise multiple reality check test for choosing the smoothing parameters is also suggested in this paper. The simple numerical evaluation and Monte Carlo experiment are conducted to confirm that our measures (in particular the two‐parameter k‐MKAR) improve the timeliness subject to a certain degree of accuracy. The business cycle signals issued by the Council for Economic Planning and Development over the period from 1998 to 2009 in Taiwan are taken as an example to illustrate the empirical application of our method. The empirical results show that the k‐MKAR‐based score lights are more capable of reflecting turning points earlier than the conventional year‐on‐year measure without sacrificing accuracy.

建筑结构鲁棒H∞控制与作动器优化配置一体化

为解决建筑结构在地震或风荷载等作用下的振动控制问题,得出了状态反馈下的最优鲁棒H∞控制器。对于系统参数和输入特性都不确知的建筑结构,从鲁棒H∞控制理论出发,求解线性矩阵不等式。以鲁棒H∞范数的极小值γm in为准则,优化了作动器的数目和位置。该控制器的设计和作动器的优化配置同时考虑了两者的相互影响,对其进行了一体化设计。通过对一个多层剪切型建筑结构进行仿真计算,验证了该方法的有效性和其简单易行、鲁棒性强等特性。     

种子蕨的肉籽类Sarcocarpidiates古生代具果实的种子植物

苏铁纲、银杏纲、紫杉纲及买麻藤纲,由于胚珠的珠被里及假花被和套被里出现形成层,在受精之后形成层行次生生长,形成肉质的果皮,包着种子,起着保护作用,是雏形的果实,有别于后继的被子植物由子房(心皮叶)发育所成的果实,这种雏形果实从种子蕨类出现的初始阶段就已存在,并在种子蕨类占有优势和主流的地位,明显地存在着系统发育的意义.这一大类的种子包括上泥盆世的芦松Calamopitys、早石炭世的髓木Medulosa和皱羊齿Lyginopteris.与肉籽类在晚泥盆世出现的种子蕨类,包括狭轴羊齿Stenomylon、晚石炭世的华丽木Callistophyton、及盾籽Peltosperma代表着不具壳斗,珠被里不存有维管束,种子缺乏肉质保护组织,应归入狭义的种子蕨类.从晚泥盆世出现的第三支派的种子植物是科达Cordaites为代表的松柏类.     

Genome-wide association study identifies susceptibility loci for dengue shock syndrome at MICB and PLCE1

Hypovolemic shock (dengue shock syndrome (DSS)) is the most common life-threatening complication of dengue. We conducted a genome-wide association study of 2,008 pediatric cases treated for DSS and 2,018 controls from Vietnam. Replication of the most significantly associated markers was carried out in an independent Vietnamese sample of 1,737 cases and 2,934 controls. SNPs at two loci showed genome-wide significant association with DSS. We identified a susceptibility locus at MICB (major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I polypeptide-related sequence B), which was within the broad MHC region on chromosome 6 but outside the class I and class II HLA loci (rs3132468, P(meta) = 4.41 × 10(-11), per-allele odds ratio (OR) = 1.34 (95% confidence interval: 1.23-1.46)). We identified associated variants within PLCE1 (phospholipase C, epsilon 1) on chromosome 10 (rs3765524, P(meta) = 3.08 × 10(-10), per-allele OR = 0.80 (95% confidence interval: 0.75-0.86)). We identify two loci associated with susceptibility to DSS in people with dengue, suggesting possible mechanisms for this severe complication of dengue.

不同碱当量、粉煤灰和矿渣掺量对碱激发粉煤灰-矿渣地聚物力学性能及微观结构的影响

粉煤灰、矿渣复配组成碱激发复合水泥可以改善单一组分碱激发水泥的性能劣势。为了研究不同碱当量、不同粉煤灰和矿渣掺量对碱激发粉煤灰-矿渣砂浆力学性能、干燥收缩及微观结构特性的影响,采用抗压、抗折强度试验、吸水率试验、干燥收缩试验、微观扫描电子显微镜(scanning electron microscope, SEM)及傅里叶红外光谱(Fourier transform infrared spectrometer, FTIR)试验进行表征。结果表明:3、7、28 d龄期时,随着碱当量和矿渣掺量增加,粉煤灰-矿渣砂浆抗压、抗折强度呈逐渐增加趋势,吸水率和干燥收缩率呈逐渐下降趋势。其中龄期为28 d,碱当量为6%、矿渣掺量为100%时,碱激发粉煤灰-矿渣砂浆抗压强度达到峰值110.84 MPa,抗折强度达到峰值10.77 MPa,吸水率最小,为1.2%,与4%的粉煤灰-矿渣砂浆相比,碱当量为6%的砂浆干燥收缩率均减少10%以上。由微观分析知,粉煤灰-矿渣砂浆在碱激发作用下水化产物主要为铝硅酸盐凝胶和水化硅酸钙凝胶,粉煤灰掺量越大,凝胶结晶度越低。碱当量越大,体系水化产物数量越多,结构越密实。
