BACKGROUND The chance of a live birth after a diagnosis of secondary recurrent miscarriage (SRM) is reduced in patients who, prior to the miscarriages, gave birth to a boy and carry HLA class II alleles that efficiently present male-specific (H-Y) antigens to the immune system. Information about obstetric complications in births prior and subsequent to the SRM diagnosis is limited. The relation...

ABSTRACTRenewable Energy Sources (RES) are well – defined as energy sources, that are in abundance within the natural surroundings and are much inexhaustible. In addition, hydroelectricity (HE) is a vital part of world renewable energy supply and hydropower remains a bulk source of electricity generation because of its environmental friendliness in nature. Modeling is the analysis of the ...

Selected reaction monitoring (SRM), also called multiple reaction monitoring, has become an invaluable tool for targeted quantitative proteomic analyses, but its application can be compromised by nonoptimal selection of transitions. In particular, complex backgrounds may cause ambiguities in SRM measurement results because peptides with interfering transitions similar to those of the target pep...

This paper proposes a software reliability model (SRM) based on a mixed gamma distribution, so-called the mixed gamma SRM. In addition, we develop the parameter estimation method for the mixed gamma SRM. Concretely, the estimation method is based on the Bayesian estimation and the parameter estimation algorithm is described by MCMC (Markov chain Monte Carlo) method with grouped data.

BACKGROUND MET gene amplification and Met protein overexpression may be associated with a poor prognosis. The MET/Met status is typically determined with fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and immunohistochemistry (IHC), respectively. Targeted proteomics uses mass spectrometry-based selected reaction monitoring (SRM) to accurately quantitate Met expression. FISH, IHC, and SRM analyses we...

Multi-party applications are of great importance, and perhaps the greatest challenge is achieving both a) robustness in terms of adaptation to dynamic topology and group membership, and b) scalability in terms of bandwidth, state, and processing, as the size of a group grows. Scalable Reliable Multicast (SRM) [1] is a rich example of a robust design intended to work across a wide range of group...

Considering the significant magnetic saturation and the double salient poles of Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM), this paper presents a new method combining the Rapid Nonlinear Simulation Method with the Equivalent Magnet Circuit Analysis Model, which can make the accuracy and rapidity of the calculation of the performance of SRM achieved. This paper also presents a model of SRM, implements the ...

The incompressibility constraint makes Navier-Stokes equations difficult. A reformulation to a better posed problem is needed before solving it numerically. The sequential regularization method (SRM) is a reformulation which combines the penalty method with a stabilization method in the context of constrained dynamical systems and has the benefit of both methods. In the paper, we study the exis...
