The article by Lombardo and colleagues described high throughput sequencing of the immunoglobulin (Ig) heavy and light chain genes from African Burkitt lymphomas (BLs). On the basis of their analysis and, in particular, because of the frequent lack of detection of Ig DHJH or VHDHJH rearrangements on the nonexpressed Ig heavy (IgH) chain allele, as well as ongoing mutation on the nonexpressed al...

HLA class I expression depends on the formation of a peptide-loading complex composed of class I heavy chain; beta(2)-microglobulin; the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP); and tapasin, which links TAP to the heavy chain. Defects in TAP result in a class I deficiency called the type I bare lymphocyte syndrome (BLS). In the present study, we examined a subject with a novel type...

HLA class I expression depends on the formation of a peptide-loading complex composed of class I heavy chain; 2microglobulin; the transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP); and tapasin, which links TAP to the heavy chain. Defects in TAP result in a class I deficiency called the type I bare lymphocyte syndrome (BLS). In the present study, we examined a subject with a novel type I BLS ...

The term basic life support (BLS) refers to maintaining an airway and supporting breathing and the circulation. It comprises the following elements: initial assessment, airway maintenance, expired air ventilation (rescue breathing; mouth-to-mouth ventilation) and chest compression. When all are combined the term cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is used. BLS implies that no equipment is used;...

We use Brillouin light scattering ~BLS! to study a series of single-crystal Bi-doped yttrium iron garnet Y32xBixFe5O12 ~Bi-YIG! prepared with x5 0, 0.14, 0.36, 0.54, and 0.92. BLS shows that the optimal laser power should be as low as possible, <5 mW. BLS manifests the Bi-concentration dependence of the magnetic and mechanic properties of Bi-YIG. Two bulk magnons are observed. One is the therma...

Different perceptions will affect the success of learning outcomes, namely student perceptions. Thus, it affects motivation. The study aimed to determine relationship between and motivation toward blended strategy (BLS). research used is a correlational test outcomes with BLS. participants in this were 70 people from two different classes. BLS instruments include 1) Desire succeed, 2) Encourage...

Bilateral stimulation (BLS) is of significant importance to eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. Eye movements seem to be the most effective form of BLS in EMDR. A brief summary of the cultural applicability of EMDR is provided, and research which showed the value of incorporating religion and/ or spirituality into psychotherapy is highlighted. Islamic Sufism, in common...

Barreto-Lynn-Scott (BLS) curves are a stand-out candidate for implementing high-security pairings. This paper shows that particular choices of the pairing-friendly search parameter give rise to four subfamilies of BLS curves, all of which offer highly efficient and implementationfriendly pairing instantiations. Curves from these particular subfamilies are defined over prime fields that support ...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate effects of basic life support (BLS) training on willingness of single rescuers to make emergency calls during out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCAs) with no available help from others. METHODS A cross-over questionnaire survey was conducted with two questionnaires. Questionnaires were administered before and after two BLS courses in fire de...

We propose a new broadband light source (BLS) based on the mutual injection between two ARcoated F-P LDs. We demonstrate colorless operation of WDM-PON by using the proposed BLS and Manchester coded data. The passive optical network (PON) based on wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) has been investigated for fiber-to-the-home (FTTH). The WDM-PON is very attractive to provide almost unlimited...
