The hypothetical existence of a good theory of mixed motives predicts many deep phenomena related to algebraic cycles. One of these, a generalization of Bloch’s conjecture says that “small Hodge diamonds” go with “small Chow groups”. Voisin’s method [19] (which produces examples with small Chow groups) is analyzed carefully to widen its applicability. A threefold of general type without 1and 2-...

Species determination by sequencing and PCR genetic chemotyping, used to determine the toxigenic potential of Fusarium strains, is fundamental for developing preventive strategies in food safety. Here we propose and statistically validate a quick protocol for standardizing the procedure of species determination by sequencing of the elongation factor 1and multiplex genetic chemotyping using the ...

Adjuvant Trastuzumab: Longer Duration, No Additional Benefit One year of adjuvant trastuzumab remains the standard of care for patients with HER2-postive early-stage breast cancer. Data from the HERA trial, which compared the efficacy and safety of 1 year and 2 years of treatment, found no significant advantage to the longer regimen. Disease-free status and overall survival rates were comparabl...

Growing interest in left atrial (LA) size is motivated by the recognition of its importance as: 1) a predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality (2); 2) a biomarker integrating the magnitude and duration of diastolic left ventricular (LV) function (3); and 3) a determinant of success of the various procedures available for the treatment of atrial fibrillation (4). Many laboratories cont...

Let IF be field, and let A and B be n X n matrices with elements in IF. Suppose that A is completely reducible and that B is symmetric. If the principal minors of A determined by the 1and 2-circuits of the graph of B and by the chordless circuits of the graph of A are equal to the corresponding principal minors of B, then A is diagonally similar to B; and conversely.

The aim of the following notes is to discuss in an informal manner the construction and some properties of 1and 2-gerbes. The material pertaining to the construction of the associated cocycles is mainly based on the author’s texts [1] and [2]. A notable improvement here is that some diagrams in [2] have been refomulated here as (hyper)cubical diagrams, which mirror in the present context certai...

1and 5-year follow-up were stratified according to CSS tertiles: CSSLOW 15.6 (n 170), 15.6 CSSMID 27.5 (n 171), and CSSHIGH 27.5 (n 171). At 1-year follow-up, rates of repeat revascularization and MACCE were significantly higher in the highest tertile group. At 5-year follow-up, CSSHIGH had a comparable rate of myocardial infarction, a trend toward a significantly higher rate of death, and sign...

We address a generalization of the classical 1and 2-processor UET scheduling problem on dedicated machines. In our chromatic model of scheduling machines have non-simultaneous availability times and tasks have arbitrary release times and due dates. Also, the versatility of our approach makes it possible to generalize all known classical criteria of optimality. Under these constraints we show th...

A hypertrophic scar is characterized by fibroblast proliferation and excessive extracellular matrix deposition. Emerging evidence has revealed that fetal keratinocytes (KCs) contribute to scarless wound healing. However, the association between fetal keratinocytesand hypertrophic scarring remains unclear. In the present study, human KCs of different gestational ages were isolated and co‑culture...
