Ancient Chinese algorithm: The Ying Buzu Shu (method of surplus and deficiency) vs Newton iteration method
No full textAir exploratory discussion of an ancient Chinese algorithm, the Ying Buzu Shu, in about 2nd century BC, known as the rule of double false position in the West is given. In addition to pointing out that the rule of double false position is actually a translation version of the ancient Chinese algorithm, a comparison with well-known Newton iteration method is also made. If derivative is introduced, the ancient Chinese algorithm reduces to the Newton method. A modification of the ancient Chinese algorithm is also proposed, and some of applications to nonlinear oscillators are illustrated

Use of Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy for the Diagnosis of Failure of Transfer of Passive Immunity and Measurement of Immunoglobulin Concentrations in Horses
No full textBackground: The economic, accurate, and rapid screening of foals for failure of transfer of passive immunity (FPT) is essential to ensure timely intervention. Hypothesis: Infrared (IR) spectroscopy of foal sera and pattern recognition may be used to diagnose FPT and quantify serum IgG. Samples: Sera from 194 foals (24–72 hours) with serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentrations determined previously by radial immunodiffusion assay (RID) were used. Methods: IR spectra were recorded for the serum samples, and the data were randomly divided into training and independent test sets, each containing both FPT-positive (IgG <400 mg/dL) and non-FPT samples. A genetic optimal region selection algorithm and linear discriminant analysis were used to partition the training spectra, and the resulting classifier was then validated by comparing the IR-predicted FPT status for each of the test samples to that provided by the RID IgG assay. A quantitative IR-based assay for IgG was developed using partial least squares (PLS) and validated by testing its ability to predict IgG concentrations. Results: Specificity, sensitivity, and accuracy for the combined data were 92.5, 96.8, and 95.9%, respectively. Corresponding positive (88.1%) and negative predictive (98.0%) values determined a success rate of 95–97% as compared to RID-based IgG concentrations. The IR-based quantitative assay yielded correlation coefficients for IR spectroscopy versus RID-based IgG concentrations of 0.90 and 0.86 for the training and test sets, respectively. Conclusions and Clinical Importance: The overall performance of the IR-based test was similar to that of the colorimetric assay and was superior and more economic than other available tests.Christopher B.

Feminism and environment protection in Lung Ying-tai’s prose
No full textThis study discusses the major themes related to the problems of women and
natural ecology in the prose texts of Lung Ying-tai. Feminist theories were
used to reveal the difficulties of women living in a patriarchal society over a
prolonged period. These theories were also used to criticise the inequitable
family practices and social systems to enable traditional women to acquire a
better understanding of their own destiny. Lung Ying-tai reflected on the
traditional gender roles in her writing and advocated female independence as
well as demanded for gender equality. At the same time, she encouraged
modern women to pursue their dreams and ambitions by using their own
strengths to realise a better future for themselves. Moreover, theories of
ecological criticism were also used to analyse Lung Ying-tai’s prose texts that
reflected the problems of ecology. The author criticised human greed which
placed great emphasis on economic benefits that subsequently led to the
exploitation of the limited resources of the earth resulting in a serious
imbalance of the natural ecological environment and sufferings to human
beings. Her concerns about the ecological crisis were demonstrated through
the evocation of ecological beauty in her writing in an attempt to elicit public
awareness on the importance of a balanced natural ecology. To encourage
more readers to support the work of environmental protection, Lung Ying-tai
strongly advocated public participation in campaigns on loving trees and
suggested the use of legislation to protect the living spaces of the natural
ecological environment
DataSheet1_SIRT1/P53 in retinal pigment epithelial cells in diabetic retinopathy: a gene co-expression analysis and He-Ying-Qing-Re formula treatment.zip
No full textObjective:Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a severe diabetic complication that leads to severe visual impairment or blindness. He-Ying-Qing-Re formula (HF), a traditional Chinese medicinal concoction, has been identified as an efficient therapy for DR with retinal vascular dysfunction for decades and has been experimentally reported to ameliorate retinal conditions in diabetic mice. This study endeavors to explore the therapeutic potential of HF with key ingredients in DR and its underlying novel mechanisms.Methods:Co-expression gene modules and hub genes were calculated by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) based on transcriptome sequencing data from high-glucose-treated adult retinal pigment epithelial cell line-19 (ARPE-19). The chromatographic fingerprint of HF was established by ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF-MS). The molecular affinity of the herbal compound was measured by molecular docking. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) was measured by a DCFDA/H2DCFDA assay. Apoptosis was detected using the TUNEL Assay Kit, while ELISA, Western blot, and real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) were used for detecting the cytokine, protein, and mRNA expressions, respectively.Results:Key compounds in HF were identified as luteolin, paeoniflorin, and nobiletin. For WGCNA, ME-salmon (“protein deacetylation”) was negatively correlated with ME-purple (“oxidative impairment”) in high-glucose-treated ARPE-19. Luteolin has a high affinity for SIRT1 and P53, as indicated by molecular docking. Luteolin has a hypoglycemic effect on type I diabetic mice. Moreover, HF and luteolin suppress oxidative stress production (ROS and MDA), inflammatory factor expression (IL-6, TNF-α, IL1-β, and MCP-1), and apoptosis, as shown in the in vivo and in vitro experiments. Concurrently, treatment with HF and luteolin led to an upregulation of SIRT1 and a corresponding downregulation of P53.Conclusion:Using HF and its active compound luteolin as therapeutic agents offers a promising approach to diabetic retinopathy treatment. It primarily suppressed protein acetylation and oxidative stress via the SIRT1/P53 pathway in retinal pigment epithelial cells.</p
