"Osteolipoma of buccal mucosa: Case report and literature review"
2016
Osteolipoma affecting oral cavity is indeed rare. We hereby report a case of osteolipoma affecting buccal mucosa. A review of literature of osteolipoma of oral cavity, particularly on radiographic/imaging findings was done. Only 16 cases of Osteolipoma of oral cavity are reported in the literature. The radiographic findings of our case, i.e. multiple dense homogenous radio-opaque structures was reported earlier only in one case [out of 16] of osteolipoma of oral cavity. Key words:Lipoma, osteolipoma, panoramic radiography, radio-opaque, radiography.
Management of painful bone metastases.
2007
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review examines recent data on the pathophysiology and mechanisms of bone pain; it highlights the use of multiple and interdisciplinary treatments rather than sole use of traditional analgesics. RECENT FINDINGS: Bone pain has been shown to have a unique pathophysiology. Recent experimental (animal) models have revealed that, parallel to increased bone destruction, ipsilateral spinal cord segments that receive primary input from the cancerous femur exhibit several notable neurochemical changes. These mandate the use of opioid doses sufficient to inhibit the observed nociceptive behaviours; these doses are greater than those required to alleviate pain behaviours of com…
Dynamic integration of classifiers in the space of principal components
2003
Recent research has shown the integration of multiple classifiers to be one of the most important directions in machine learning and data mining. It was shown that, for an ensemble to be successful, it should consist of accurate and diverse base classifiers. However, it is also important that the integration procedure in the ensemble should properly utilize the ensemble diversity. In this paper, we present an algorithm for the dynamic integration of classifiers in the space of extracted features (FEDIC). It is based on the technique of dynamic integration, in which local accuracy estimates are calculated for each base classifier of an ensemble, in the neighborhood of a new instance to be pr…
Multidimensional Model Design using Data Mining: A Rapid Prototyping Methodology
2017
[Departement_IRSTEA]Ecotechnologies [TR1_IRSTEA]MOTIVE; International audience; Designing and building a Data Warehouse (DW), and associated OLAP cubes, are long processes, during which decision-maker requirements play an important role. But decision-makers are not OLAP experts and can find it difficult to deal with the concepts behind DW and OLAP. To support DW design in this context, we propose: (i) a new rapid prototyping methodology, integrating two different DM algorithms, to define dimension hierarchies according to decision-maker knowledge; (ii) a complete UML Profile, to define a DW schema that integrates both the DM algorithms; (iii) a mapping process to transform multidimensional …
A Methodology and Tool for Rapid Prototyping of Data Warehouses Using Data Mining: Application to Birds Biodiversity
2014
Data Warehouses (DWs) are large repositories of data aimed at supporting the decision-making process by enabling flexible and interactive analyses via OLAP systems. Rapid prototyping of DWs is necessary when OLAP applications are complex. Some work about the integration of Data Mining and OLAP systems has been done to enhance OLAP operators with mined indicators, and/or to define the DW schema. However, to best of our knowledge, prototyping methods for DWs do not support this kind of integration. Then, in this paper we present a new prototyping methodology for DWs, extending [3], where DM methods are used to define the DW schema. We validate our approach on a real data set concerning bird b…
A combined experimental and theoretical study of the unimolecular elimination kinetics of 2-alkoxypropionic acids in the gas phase
1999
Abstract The reaction mechanism associated with the decomposition of three 2-alkoxypropionic acids (2-methoxy-, 2-ethoxy- and 2-isopropoxypropionic acid) in gas phase to form acetaldehyde, carbon monoxide, and the corresponding alcohol has been analyzed by a combination of experimental and theoretical studies. The kinetics of these systems were determined in a static system over the temperature and pressure range of 301.2–370.7°C and 61–190 Torr, respectively, in seasoned vessel, with the free-radical inhibitor cyclohexene. The experimental data show that these decompositions are homogeneous, unimolecular and follow a first-order rate law. A detailed characterization, at MP2/6-31G** computa…
Trapping AsPh3 via reaction with NiS/γ-Al2O3 in the presence of H2: Reaction mechanism and kinetics
2021
International audience; Removal of As from petroleum feedstocks is an important process which can be realized using As trapping mass containing supported nickel sulfide. In order to understand the mechanism of the trapping we studied the reaction of AsPh3 with NiS/γ-Al2O3 in the presence of H2 in a batch reactor in toluene solution at 230 °C. This reaction results in formation of NiAs, benzene and H2S. Also, the intermediate species, thiophenol and diphenylsulfide, were observed. Despite formation of NiAs layer in the course of reaction, the rate of AsPh3 decomposition is not affected by the solid state diffusion up to ∼ 50 % of nickel conversion. The rate determining step in these conditio…
Human leucocyte antigen-A2 restricted and Mycobacterium tuberculosis 19-kDa antigen-specific CD8+ T-cell responses are oligoclonal and exhibit a T-ce…
2001
CD8+ T cells can be grouped into two different types of secretory T lymphocytes, based on the cytokine-secretion pattern upon antigen exposure: those with a T-cell cytotoxic type 1 response (Tc1), which secrete interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), or those with a T-cell cytotoxic type 2 response, which secrete interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-10. We examined the CD8+ T-cell response directed against an immunodominant human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-A2-presented peptide derived from a 19-kDa Mycobacterium tuberculosis-associated antigen. T cells were examined by functional analysis and by T-cell receptor (TCR) complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3)-spectratyping, which defines the complexity of a T-cel…

In this paper, we introduce a novel recommendation model, which harnesses a convolutional neural network to mine meaningful information from customer reviews, and integrates it with matrix factorization algorithm seamlessly. It is a valid method to improve the transparency of CF algorithms.
Virtual lock-and-key approach: The in silico revival of Fischer model by means of molecular descriptors
2010
Abstract In the last years the application of computational methodologies in the medicinal chemistry fields has found an amazing development. All the efforts were focused on the searching of new leads featuring a close affinity on a specific biological target. Thus, different molecular modeling approaches in simulation of molecular behavior for a specific biological target were employed. In spite of the increasing reliability of computational methodologies, not always the designed lead, once synthesized and screened, are suitable for the chosen biological target. To give another chance to these compounds, this work tries to resume the old concept of Fischer lock-and-key model. The same can …
