The client summary identical with privacy-preservation in movable community set of connections (msns) and begin a family of novel summary identical protocols. We first propose a clear Comparison-based summary identical protocol which runs between two parties, an originator and a responder. The summary identical protocol enables the originator to get hold of the comparison-based matching result ...

BACKGROUND Follow-up after treatment with the Ponseti method is important because of the known association be- tween lack of brace wear and recurrence. This study was designed to ascertain factors associated with patients who did not return for the recommended follow-up versus those who did. METHODS Between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2009, 222 patients were treated for idiopathic clubf...

We investigate reference group formation and the impact of social comparisons on ultimatum bargaining using a laboratory experiment. Three individuals compete in a real-e¤ort task for the role of the proposer in a three-player ultimatum game. The role of the responder is randomly allocated. The third individual receives a …xed payment our treatment variable and makes no decision. The existence ...

N-(2-aminophenyl)-4-[N-(pyridine-3yl-methoxy-carbonyl) aminomethyl] benzamide (MS-275) is a second generation histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor with significant anti-tumor efficacy currently in clinical development. We investigated the effect of MS-275 treatment on various colon cancer cell lines, as well as on mouse xenograft models derived from human colorectal cancer. MS-275 exerted stron...

n-terminal pro β-type natriuretic peptide (nt-probnp) is a valuable marker for monitoring the response to treatment in patients with heart failure. based on the clinically observed improvement of heart failure symptoms early after cardiac resynchronization therapy (crt), we sought to investigate whether crt induce any significant reduction in the plasma level of nt-probnp in three days after im...

previous studies had shown that sub-inhibitory concentrations of silver sulphadiazine (agsd) stimulated the production of toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 in certain strains (responder strains) of staphylococcus aureus and that protease production was also affected. no changes were detected in other strains (non-responders). extracellular proteins from eleven responder and non-responder strains gro...

The development of nonsurgical contraceptives for cats may facilitate population control of the species. The purpose of this study was to investigate the utility of GnRH for immunocontraception of male cats. Male cats (n=12) were divided into groups of three and were immunized once with 0 (sham), 50, 200, or 400 microg synthetic GnRH coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin and combined with a myco...

Group decision-making in strategic games Ultimatum game Bornstein and Yaniv (1998) studied individual versus group behavior in a standard, one-shot ultimatum game, in which a proposer makes a proposal for how to split a fixed cake size (c) between himself (c-t) and a responder (t). If the responder accepted the proposer’s offer t, the pie was split accordingly; otherwise both received nothing. ...

SUMMARY In this issue of Cancer Discovery, AI-Ahmadie and colleagues identify a somatic mutation in the RAD50 gene as a likely contributing factor to an unusual curative response to systemic combination therapy employing the DNA-damaging agent irinotecan and a checkpoint kinase 1 inhibitor in a patient with recurrent, metastatic small-cell cancer. This study highlights the importance of in-dept...
