In this paper we present a novel extended formulation for the line planning problem that is based on what we call “configurations” of lines and frequencies. Configurations account for all possible options to provide a required transportation capacity on an infrastructure edge. The proposed configuration model is strong in the sense that it implies several facet-defining inequalities for the sta...

ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) seriously affects people's quality of life due to joint pain, stiffness, disability, and dyskinesia worldwide. Long noncoding RNA zinc finger antisense 1 (ZFAS1) is downregulated tightly associated with proliferation, migration, apoptosis, matrix synthesis chondrocyte in OA. However, the molecular mechanisms ZFAS1 OA remain unknown. The expression correlation betwee...

Inflammation of the adipose tissue contributes to onset and progression several chronic obesity-related diseases. The two most important lipophilic diterpenoid compounds found in root Salvia milthorrhiza Bunge (also called Danshen), tanshinone IIA (TIIA) cryptotanshinone (CRY), have many favorable pharmacological effects. However, their roles obesity-associated adipocyte inflammation related su...

Our expression signatures of human cancer including bladder cancer (BC) revealed that the expression of microRNA-1 (miR-1) and microRNA-133a (miR-133a) is significantly reduced in cancer cells. In the human genome, miR-1 and miR-133a are located on the same chromosomal region (miR-1-2 and miR-133a-1 on 18q11.2, and miR-1-1 and miR-133a-2 on 20q13....

Ultra-endurance sports are growing in popularity but can be associated with adverse health effects, such as exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), which lead to exertional rhabdomyolysis. Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) may useful approach the degree of EIMD. We aimed (1) investigate relevance circulating miRNAs biomarkers and (2) examine acute response skeletal/cardiac kidney a 24-h run elite a...

Determining that miRNAs play a role in breast cancer pathogenesis suggests it may be useful the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. In this study, 39 patients with invasive were diagnosed serum levels 20 miRNAs(miR-105, miR-21, miR-141, miR-200a, miR-200b, miR-200c, miR-203, miR-210, miR-375, miR-34a, miR-133a, miR-155, miR-139-5p, miR-143, miR-145, miR-365, miR-299-5p, miR-411, miR-452, miR-17)...

The continued growth of MIR is motivating more complex annotation data, consisting of richer information, multiple annotations for a given task, and multiple tasks for a given music signal. In this work, we propose JAMS, a JSON-based music annotation format capable of addressing the evolving research requirements of the community, based on the three core principles of simplicity, structure and ...

Microblogging services, such as Twitter, have risen enormously in popularity during the past years. Despite their popularity, such services have never been analyzed for MIR purposes, to the best of our knowledge. We hence present first investigations of the usability of music artist-related microblogging posts to perform artist labeling and similarity estimation tasks. To this end, we look into...
