Takayasu's arteritis (TAK) is a rare, chronic large-vessel vasculitis (LVV) that predominantly affects the aorta, its major branches, and the pulmonary arteries. Recent advances in the diagnosis, clinical course, disease assessment with biomarkers/imaging and new clinical tools, patient-reported outcomes, and new treatment options of TAK are discussed in this review. Conventional angiography, t...

Metode penelitian dilaksanakan menentukan topik “exkursi”, kemudian menelusuri sumber primer sekunder, mengkritik data untuk memperoleh validitas.

In this paper, we introduce a symbolic model to analyse protocols that use a bilinear pairing between two cyclic groups. This model consists in an extension of the Abadi-Rogaway logic and we prove that the logic is still computationally sound: symbolic indistinguishability implies computational indistinguishability provided that the Bilinear Decisional DiffieHellman assumption holds and that th...

An ocean response to typhoon Kai-Tak is simulated using an accurate fourth-order, basin-scale ocean model. The surface winds of typhoon Kai-Tak were obtained from QuikSCAT satellite images blended with the ECMWF wind fields. An intense nonlinear mesoscale eddy is generated in the northeast South China Sea (SCS) with a Rossby number of O(1) and on a 50 100 km horizontal scale. Inertial oscillati...
