Abstract Diversity has tremendous value in modern society. Economic theories suggest that cultural and ethnic diversity may contribute to economic development prosperity. To date, however, the correspondence between measures indicators, such as Consumer Price Index, not been quantified. This is primarily due difficulty obtaining data on micro behaviors macroeconomic indicators. In this paper, w...

In this paper, a novel machine learning derived control performance assessment (CPA) classification system is proposed. It dedicated for wide class of PID-based industrial loops with processes exhibiting dynamical properties close to second order plus delay time (SOPDT). The proposed concept very general and easy configure distinguish between acceptable poor closed loop performance. This approa...

INTRODUCTION This study sought to assess the prognostic value of the kinetics of procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP) and clinical scores (clinical pulmonary infection score (CPIS), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA)) in the outcome of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) at an early time point, when adequacy of antimicrobial treatment is evaluated. METHODS This prospective ...

Cricket protein isolate (CPI) prepared through isoelectric precipitation was physically treated by heat (H), high pressure (HP), or ultrasound (US). The effect of the three treatments on structural and functional property (emulsifying capacity, EC) CPI evaluated. Four oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, control (C-), H-, HP-, US-, were mixing 1% (w/v) with purified rapeseed oil Milli-Q water. emulsio...

Boston, MA, April 29, 2016 --Immunomedics, Inc. (Nasdaq: IMMU) today announced that objective durable responses have been achieved with sacituzumab govitecan, its lead antibodydrug conjugate (ADC), in a number of patients with advanced, metastatic solid cancers, after failing multiple prior therapies, some including checkpoint inhibitors (CPIs). The ADC has previously been granted Breakthrough ...

Achieving selective and sensitive carbohydrate-protein interactions (CPIs) using nanotechnology is an intriguing area of research. Here we demonstrate that the different shapes of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) functionalized with monosaccharides tune the bacterial aggregations. The mechanism of aggregation revealed that the large number of surface interactions of rod shaped mannose-AuNPs with E. c...

Acquisitions approach An approach to CPIs in which consumption is identified with the consumption goods and services acquired by a household in some period (as distinct from those wholly or partially used up for purposes of consumption). Depending on the intended scope of the CPI, acquisitions may include not only goods and services purchased, but also those acquired by own-account production o...

Imaging through random media is an important problem with many applications including optical remote sensing and bio-optics. In this paper, we will investigate the applications of Radiative Transfer Equation (RTE) in optical imaging. In particular, we study off-axis intensity subtraction (OAIS) and cross-polarization intensity subtraction (CPIS) imaging techniques. These techniques were propose...

The cause of Hospital Acquired Pneumonia (HAP) is bacteria from dental plaque, colonizing with other pulmonary pathogens. This condition builds rational pathogen respiration in the oral cavity resulting high-risk pneumonia. risk group for HAP over 70 years old, who have serious co-morbidities, malnutrition, decreased consciousness, and chronic obstructive disease. Prevention nosocomial infectio...
