Abstract Borda sorting algorithm is a kind of improvement algorithm based on weighted position sorting algorithm, it is mainly suitable for the high duplication of search results, for the independent search results, the effect is not very good and the computing method of relative score in Borda sorting algorithm is according to the rule of the linear regressive, but position relationship cannot fully represent the correlation changes. aimed at this drawback, the new sorting algorithm is proposed in this paper, named PMS-Sorting algorithm, firstly the position score of the returned results is standardized processing, and the More >

Abstract Peritoneal macrophages (PMs) are the major cell type of peritoneal cells that participate in multiple aspects of innate and acquired immunity in the peritoneal cavity. PMs have an ability to release a large amount of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines and therefore play a critical role in regulating the differentiation of innate immune cells and inflammatory T cells. Accumulating studies demonstrate that the immunological reactions and inflammatory responses of PMs are strongly related to the pathogenic processes of various inflammatory diseases and abdominal cancers. Consequently, the regulation of PM activation has gradually emerged as a promising More >

Abstract In this article we use the new, unified framework of high order one-step P_NP_M schemes recently proposed for inviscid hyperbolic conservation laws by Dumbser, Balsara, Toro, and Munz (2008) in order to solve the viscous and resistive magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) equations in two and three space dimensions on unstructured triangular and tetrahedral meshes. The P_NP_M framework uses piecewise polynomials of degree N to represent data in each cell and piecewise polynomials of degree M ≥ N to compute the fluxes and source terms. This new general machinery contains usual high order finite volume schemes (N = 0) and discontinuous… More >

Abstract Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies. DNA methylation is implicated in DNA mismatch repair genes deficiency. In the present study, we evaluated the methylation status of MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PMS2 in 20 diffuse- and 26 intestinal-type gastric cancer samples and 20 normal gastric mucosal of gastric cancer patients from Northern Brazil. We found that none of the nonneoplastic samples showed methylation of any gene promoter and 50% of gastric cancer samples showed at least one methylated gene promoter. Methylation frequencies of MLH1, MSH2, MSH6 and PMS2 promoter were 21.74%, 17.39%, 0% and 28.26% respectively… More >
