Retarded Elimination of a High-Molecular Enzyme-Substrate-Complex after Hydroxyethyl-Starch-Infusion
1978
During a pharmacokinetic study with hydroxyethyl starch we found, that this plasma substitute induces a regular increase of serum amylase. In 54 patients after infusion of 500 ml 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) an increase of serum amylase was observed, which in 51 cases exceeded the upper limit of normal (190 U/l). In most cases serum amylase reached values twice as high as the basal value. Renal function influenced duration of increased serum amylase values, but did not influence maximum increases (201 ±15 U/l; mean ± SEM). In patients with advanced renal failure (GFR = 2–10 ml/min) serum amylase was still markedly elevated after 72 hours (298 ± U/l; mean ± SEM). In patients with normal rena…
A cocrystal of two Mo(VI) complexes bearing different diastereomers of the 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-{[(1-oxido-1-phenylpropan-2-yl)(methyl)amino]methyl}ph…
2013
The title cocrystal contains two chiral conformational diastereomers,viz.(1S,2R,RN)- and (1S,2R,SN)-, of [2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-{[(1-oxido-1-phenylpropan-2-yl)(methyl)amino]methyl}phenolato](methanol)-cis-dioxidomolybdenum(VI), [Mo(C25H35NO2)O2(CH3OH)], representing the first example of a structurally characterized molybdenum complex with enantiomerically pure ephedrine derivative ligands. The MoVIcations exhibit differently distorted octahedral coordination environments, with two oxide ligands positionedcisto each other. The remainder of the coordination comprises phenoxide, alkoxide and methanol O atoms, with an amine N atom completing the octahedron. The distinct complexes are linked by st…
Lymnaea schirazensis, an Overlooked Snail Distorting Fascioliasis Data: Genotype, Phenotype, Ecology, Worldwide Spread, Susceptibility, Applicability
2011
BackgroundLymnaeid snails transmit medical and veterinary important trematodiases, mainly fascioliasis. Vector specificity of fasciolid parasites defines disease distribution and characteristics. Different lymnaeid species appear linked to different transmission and epidemiological patterns. Pronounced susceptibility differences to absolute resistance have been described among lymnaeid populations. When assessing disease characteristics in different endemic areas, unexpected results were obtained in studies on lymnaeid susceptibility to Fasciola. We undertook studies to understand this disease transmission heterogeneity.Methodology/principal findingsA ten-year study in Iran, Egypt, Spain, t…
Probabilistic stability analysis of social obesity epidemic by a delayed stochastic model
2014
Abstract Sufficient conditions for stability in probability of the equilibrium point of a social obesity epidemic model with distributed delay and stochastic perturbations are obtained. The obesity epidemic model is demonstrated on the example of the Region of Valencia, Spain. The considered nonlinear system is linearized in the neighborhood of the positive point of equilibrium and a sufficient condition for asymptotic mean square stability of the zero solution of the constructed linear system is obtained.
Evolutionary Game Dynamics for Collective Decision Making in Structured and Unstructured Environments
2017
Abstract For a large population of players we consider a collective decision making process with three possible choices: option A or B or no option. The more popular option is more likely to be chosen by uncommitted players and cross-inhibitory signals can be sent to attract players committed to a different option. This model originates in the context of honeybees swarms, and we generalise it to accommodate other applications such as duopolistic competition and opinion dynamics. The first contribution is an evolutionary game model and a corresponding new game dynamics called expected gain pairwise comparison dynamics explaining how the strategic behaviour of the players may lead to deadlock…
First-order linear differential equations whose data are complex random variables: Probabilistic solution and stability analysis via densities
2022
[EN] Random initial value problems to non-homogeneous first-order linear differential equations with complex coefficients are probabilistically solved by computing the first probability density of the solution. For the sake of generality, coefficients and initial condition are assumed to be absolutely continuous complex random variables with an arbitrary joint probability density function. The probability of stability, as well as the density of the equilibrium point, are explicitly determined. The Random Variable Transformation technique is extensively utilized to conduct the overall analysis. Several examples are included to illustrate all the theoretical findings.
Singularity tracking for Camassa-Holm and Prandtl's equations
2006
In this paper we consider the phenomenon of singularity formation for the Camassa-Holm equation and for Prandtl's equations. We solve these equations using spectral methods. Then we track the singularity in the complex plane estimating the rate of decay of the Fourier spectrum. This method allows us to follow the process of the singularity formation as the singularity approaches the real axis.
Linked cyclopentadienyl-amido titanium catalysts supported on pyridylethylsilane-modified silica for heterogeneous ethylene homo- and copolymerization
2003
Abstract Linked cyclopentadienyl-amido titanium dimethyl and dichloro complexes, Ti(η 5 :η 1 -C 5 Me 4 SiMe 2 N t Bu)X 2 (X=Me, Cl), were reacted with trityl tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)borate (TB), Ph 3 C + [B(C 6 F 5 ) 4 ] − , and methylaluminoxane (MAO), followed by treatment with toluene suspension of pyridylethylsilane-modified silica, to give two new supported-type titanium catalysts, PySTiTB and PySTiMAO. PySTiTB polymerized ethylene in the presence of triisobutylaluminum (TIBA) in hexane at 60 °C and 5 bar with slightly higher activity than the corresponding homogeneous system under the same conditions. PySTiMAO showed relatively high activity even without any use of alkylaluminum co…
Non-bridged amido cyclopentadienyl complexes of titanium: synthesis, characterization, and olefin polymerization catalysis
2000
Alkylation of Ti(η 5 -C 5 Me 5 )(NMe 2 )Cl 2 gives thermally stable, crystalline dialkyl complexes Ti(η 5 -C 5 Me 5 )(NMe 2 )R 2 (R=Me, CH 2 Ph, Ph). The molecular structure of the dibenzyl complex reveals an unprecedented conformation of the doubly bonded NMe 2 group which is turned parallel to the η 5 -C 5 Me 5 ligand, according to single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. Treatment of the dibenzyl complex with B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 in d 5 -bromobenzene solution results in the quantitative formation of a thermally (>10°C) unstable monobenzyl cation as solvent-separated ion pair [Ti(η 5 -C 5 Me 5 )(NMe 2 )CH 2 Ph] + [PhCH 2 B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 ] − which efficiently polymerizes styrene syndiospecifically…
CUDA-Accelerated Alignment of Subsequences in Streamed Time Series Data
2014
Euclidean Distance (ED) and Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) are cornerstones in the field of time series data mining. Many high-level algorithms like kNN-classification, clustering or anomaly detection make excessive use of these distance measures as subroutines. Furthermore, the vast growth of recorded data produced by automated monitoring systems or integrated sensors establishes the need for efficient implementations. In this paper, we introduce linear memory parallelization schemes for the alignment of a given query Q in a stream of time series data S for both ED and DTW using CUDA-enabled accelerators. The ED parallelization features a log-linear calculation scheme in contrast to the naive …
