Shi-Yan Li, Yizhen Liu Cancer Research Institute, Scott and White Healthcare, Temple, TX, USA Abstract: Knowledge of how the immune system recognizes and attempts to control cancer growth and development has improved dramatically.The advent of immunotherapies for cancer has resulted in robust clinical responses and confirmed that the immune system
Power Restoration Prediction Following Extreme Events and Disasters
Abstract This article examines electric power restoration following catastrophic damage in modern cities and regions due to extreme events and disasters.Recovery time and non-restoration probability are derived using new data from a comprehensive range of recent massive hurricanes, extensive wildfires, severe snowstorms, and damaging cyclones.Despi
The prognosis for delayed immune recovery in HIV-infected children might be associated with pre-cART CD4+ T cell count irrespective of co-infection with tuberculosis
Abstract Background Immune reconstitution following the initiation of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) significantly impacts the prognosis of individuals infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).Our previous studies have indicated that the baseline CD4+ T cells count and percentage before cART initiation are predictors of immune re
Is it best to add native shrubs to a coastal sage scrub restoration project as seeds or as seedlings?
Ecological restoration frequently involves the addition of native plants, but the effectiveness (in terms of plant growth, plant survival, and cost) of using seeds versus container plants has not been studied in many plant communities.It is also not known if plant success would vary by species or based on functional traits.To answer these questions
