Typhoons Bolaven (1215) and Lingling (1913) were two typhoons that went directly north to hit Heilongjiang province and caused heavy rain.Both of them changed in the process of going north to the inland.The tropical cyclone yearbook, Fengyun cloud top brightness temperature data, conventional observation data and NCEP/NCAR reanalysis data were used
Relationship between Physicochemical Characteristics and Pathogenic Leptospira in Urban Slum Waters
Leptospirosis, a zoonosis caused by pathogenic Leptospira, primarily affects tropical, developing regions, especially communities without adequate sanitation.Outbreaks of leptospirosis have been linked with the presence of pathogenic Leptospira in water.In this study, we measured the physicochemical characteristics (temperature, pH, salinity, turbi
Spotlight on rituximab in the treatment of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis: current perspectives
Philipp Moog, Klaus Thuermel Abteilung für Nephrologie, Klinikum rechts der Isar, Technische Universität München, Munich, Germany Abstract: A 54-year-old patient presented to his general practitioner because of strong muscle pain in both thighs.Inflammatory parameters (CRP 16.3 mg/dL) and white blood cells (15 g/L) were elevated.The
Topological, chemical and electro-optical characteristics of riboflavin-doped artificial and natural DNA thin films
DNA is considered as a useful building bio-material, and it serves as an efficient template to align functionalized nanomaterials.Riboflavin (RF)-doped synthetic double-crossover DNA (DX-DNA) lattices and natural salmon DNA (SDNA) thin films were constructed using substrate-assisted growth and drop-casting methods, respectively, and their topologic
Exponential Loss Minimization for Learning Weighted Naive Bayes Classifiers
The naive Bayesian classification method has received significant attention in the field of supervised learning.This method has an unrealistic assumption in that it views all attributes as equally important.Attribute weighting is one of the methods used to alleviate this assumption and consequently improve the performance of the naive Bayes classif
