Characteristics of LGV repeaters: analysis of LGV surveillance data

OBJECTIVES A number of individuals have acquired lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV) infection multiple times since its re-emergence. We describe the characteristics of reinfections and those who acquire them. METHODS The LGV Enhanced Surveillance system collected detailed information on LGV episodes in the U.K. from 2004 to 2010. Using logistic regression we compared the baseline characteristics ...

A dynamic extension for LgV controllers

A dynamic state feedback control stmcture is proposed in this paper. The scheme is conceived as an adaptive controller with the equilibrium in an LgV control law as the uncertain parameter, which allows the implementation of the controller for systems with unknown equilibnum. A new property of LgV controllers is given, and it is proven that this and other important properties carry on to the pr...

EST-PAGE - managing and analyzing EST data

UNLABELLED EST-PAGE provides a bioinformatics solution for expressed sequence tags (EST) data entry, database management, GenBank submission, process control and data retrieval from a unified web interface that can be easily customized and adapted by groups working on diverse EST sequencing projects. AVAILABILITY The system and source code are available upon request from the authors. SUPPLE...

Parallel EST Clustering

Expressed sequence tags, abbreviated ESTs, are DNA fragments experimentally derived from expressed portions of genes. Clustering of ESTs is essential for gene recognition and understanding important genetic variations such as those resulting in diseases. In this paper, we present the design and development of a parallel software system for EST clustering. The novel features of our approach incl...
