Tighter formed staples produce stronger sealing against luminal leakage

New multistage TB vaccine shown to produce stronger, longer-lasting response against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Potential Agents against Plasma Leakage

Shock due to severe plasma leakage may happen in infectious diseases such as severe dengue and sepsis due to various bacterial infections, which may be deleterious and may lead to death. Various substances and proteins are known to modulate the effects of proleakage mediators and counteract the deleterious effect of plasma leakage. Some of the various substances and proteins such as focal adhes...

Cryptography Against Continual Memory Leakage

Recall from last lecture that we have several ways to model leakage. One model is “only computation leaks” by Micali and Reyzin [11], which assumes a form of secure memory that does not leak as long as no computation is done on the data. Another one is “memory leakage” by Akavia, Goldwasser, and Vaikuntanathan [1], which assumes that everything can leak information. From an orthogonal dimension...

Securing Computation against Continuous Leakage

We present a general method to compile any cryptographic algorithm into one which resists side channel attacks of the only computation leaks information variety for an unbounded number of executions. Our method uses as a building block a semantically secure subsidiary bit encryption scheme with the following additional operations: key refreshing, oblivious generation of cipher texts, leakage re...

Genomic Instability: A Stronger Prognostic Marker Than Proliferation for Early Stage Luminal Breast Carcinomas

BACKGROUND The accurate prognosis definition to tailor treatment for early luminal invasive breast carcinoma patients remains challenging. MATERIALS AND METHODS Two hundred fourteen early luminal breast carcinomas were genotyped with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) array to determine the number of chromosomal breakpoints as a marker of genomic instability. Proliferation was assessed by...
