牙周炎维护治疗期活动性位点临床指标、X-Ray及微生物变化特征

对牙周非手术基础治疗后进入维护治疗期的22名慢性牙周炎患者进行9个月的纵向观察。每3个月给予口腔卫生宣教,龈上下洁刮治和根面平整,并在基线和每次复查时记录临床检查指标。结果表明:活动性位点的年发生率为5.75%,上下颌磨牙及上颌前磨牙为活动性破坏好发牙位。附着增加的位点数和增加的量随基线袋深增加呈增多趋势,X-Ray检查牙槽骨高度无明显变化,活动性位点螺旋体数量明显多于非活动性位点。说明非手术基础治疗配合定期维护,在较短观察期内可使大多数位点临床指标保持稳定甚至好转,但不能带来明显的骨量增加。     

谐波合成法模拟随机风场的优化算法

为解决传统谐波合成法模拟多变量随机脉动风场效率低下的问题,首先将互谱密度函数矩阵分块,然后采用递归优化算法进行矩阵的Cholesky分解,同时引入矩阵乘法算法来代替传统算法的叠加过程,从而减少了互谱密度矩阵中元素生成的数量,加快了矩阵分解和脉动风场合成的速度.工程实例表明,上述优化算法可有效减少整个模拟过程的计算时间,提高模拟效率.

Combining immune cell and viral therapy for the treatment of cancer

A variety of viral-based and immune cell therapies have been proposed for use in the treatment of cancer. One possible approach to improve the effectiveness of these biological agents may be to combine them such that we can take advantage of natural immune cell-pathogen relationships. Here we discuss these potential approaches with particular emphasis on the use of immune cells as carrier vehicles to deliver viral therapies to the tumor.

The cold case: Are rhinoviruses perfectly adapted pathogens?

Rhinoviruses, which cause common cold, belong to the Picornaviridae family, small non-enveloped viruses (diameter 15-30 nm) containing a single-stranded RNA genome (about 7 kb). Over 100 different rhinoviral serotypes have been identified thus far, establishing rhinoviruses as the most diverse group of Picornaviridae. Based on receptor binding properties, rhinoviruses are divided into two classes: the major group binding to intracellular adhesion molecule-1 and the minor group binding to the very low density lipoprotein receptors. Interactions between virus and the receptor molecules cause a conformational change in the capsid, which is a prerequisite for viral uptake. Rhinoviruses trigger a chemokine response upon infection that may lead to exacerbation of the symptoms of common cold, i.e. asthma and inflammation. The following review aims to summarize the knowledge about rhinoviral infections and discusses therapeutical approaches against this almost perfectly adapted pathogen.     

The Role of Survey Data in Nowcasting Euro Area GDP Growth

This paper evaluates the impact of new releases of financial, real activity and survey data on nowcasting euro area gross domestic product (GDP). We show that all three data categories positively impact on the accuracy of GDP nowcasts, whereby the effect is largest in the case of real activity data. When treating variables as if they were all published at the same time and without any time lag, financial series lose all their significance, while survey data remain an important ingredient for the nowcasting exercise. The subsequent analysis shows that the sectoral coverage of survey data, which is broader than that of timely available real activity data, as well as their information content stemming from questions focusing on agents' expectations, are the main sources of the ‘genuine’ predictive power of survey data. When the forecast period is restricted to the 2008–09 financial crisis, the main change is an enhanced forecasting role for financial data. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

波长路由网络光通路呼叫阻塞分析研究

基于马尔科夫链相关性理论研究了波分复用全光网络中光通路呼叫请求过程,提出了阻塞性能数学分析方法。模型中引入了光网络资源预留过程中所应该考虑的光节点接收器的配置情况。数值分析表明,光纤中复用的波长数越多以及网络通信负载量较小时,配置波长转换能明显改善光网络的阻塞性能,而且目的光节点配置接收器的数量约为光纤链路复用波长数的二分之一时,即使增加配置节点接收器的数量也难以提高光通路的呼叫阻塞性能。
