The PWM principle is used to control the output voltage of the three-phase inverters. There are many possible PWM techniques proposed in literature. Among these the space-vector PWM (SVM) method is an advanced PWM method and is possibly the best among all the PWM techniques for variable-frequency drive applications. The classical SVPWM which is used in the direct torque control of induction mot...

De novo CD5+ diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) are a distinct subgroup of DLBCL with poor prognosis. However the role of rituximab-containing therapy and salvage stem cell transplantation in this patients' population remain to be defined. We retrospectively reviewed clinical features and outcomes of 102 patients with de novo CD5+ DLBCL treated with rituximab-containing therapy at nine diff...

A hybrid pulse width modulation (PWM) theme for the grid electrical converter is investigated, which combines the deserves of space-vector PWM (SVM) and elite harmonic elimination PWM (SHEPWM). SHEPWM is adopted at steady state, while SVM is adopted to reach higher dynamic performance at grid fault. A transition strategy between these two PWM schemes is projected, which achieves sleek and fast ...

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is an aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma with marked biologic heterogeneity. We analyzed 100 cases of DLBCL to evaluate the prognostic value of immunohistochemical markers derived from the gene expression profiling-defined cell origin signature, including MYC, BCL2, BCL6, and FOXP1 protein expression. We also investigated genetic alterations in BCL2, BCL6, MYC...

The objectives of this study were to detect immunohistochemical subtypes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of the head and neck, to compare the Hans, Choi, and Tally algorithms and to examine the significance of protein expression in these algorithms. This study included 103 DLBCL patients at Sichuan Cancer Hospital between May 2010 and October 2012. Immunohistochemistry was per-formed f...

miR-21 plays an important role in immune responses and inflammatory diseases, but the mechanism of action of miR-21 in autoimmune lymphoid hyperplasia syndrome still remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to assess the mechanism of miR-21 in autoimmune disease, particularly, the autoimmune lymphoid hyperplasia syndrome. The pathology and immunity-related phenotypes of miR-21 transgen...

CD37 (tetraspanin TSPAN26) is a B-cell surface antigen widely expressed on mature B cells. CD37 is involved in immune regulation and tumor suppression but its function has not been fully elucidated. We assessed CD37 expression in de novo diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and investigated its clinical and biologic significance in 773 patients treated with rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, do...

Gene-expression profiling has been used to define 3 molecular subtypes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), termed germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) DLBCL, activated B-cell-like (ABC) DLBCL, and primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBL). To investigate whether these DLBCL subtypes arise by distinct pathogenetic mechanisms, we analyzed 203 DLBCL biopsy samples by high-resolution, genome-wi...

PURPOSE The pathogenesis and clinical heterogeneity of gastric diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) are poorly understood. We have comprehensively investigated the incidence and clinical significance of lymphoma-associated chromosomal translocations, particularly those involving the immunoglobulin heavy chain (IGH) gene locus, in a large series of gastric DLBCL. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN One hundr...
