The Gaussian mechanism (GM) represents a universally employed tool for achieving differential privacy (DP), and large body of work has been devoted to its analysis. We argue that the three prevailing interpretations GM, namely epsilon/delta-DP, f-DP Rényi DP can be expressed by using single parameter psi, which we term sensitivity index. Psi uniquely characterises GM properties encapsulating tw...

PURPOSE Recent insights regarding the pathogenesis of malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) provide new opportunities for targeted molecular therapies for this highly lethal disease. The present study was undertaken to examine the effects of the histone deacetylase inhibitor, Depsipeptide (DP) FK228, in conjunction with the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, Flavopiridol (FLA), in cultured MPM c...

BACKGROUND Assessment of color disc photograph (C-DP) is affected by image quality, which decreases the ability to detect glaucoma. High-dynamic-range (HDR) imaging provides a greater range of luminosity. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the capability of ophthalmology residents to detect glaucoma using HDR-concept disc photography (HDR-DP) compared to C-DP. DESIGN Cross...

Previous studies have revealed that HIV-infected individuals possess circulating CD4(+)CD8(+) double-positive (DP) T cells specific for HIV Ags. In the present study, we analyzed the proliferation and functional profile of circulating DP T cells from 30 acutely HIV-infected individuals and 10 chronically HIV-infected viral controllers. The acutely infected group had DP T cells that showed more ...

This study evaluated the effect of different amounts of dentin powder (DP) mixed in Clearfil SE Bond (CSB) or Single Bond (SB) on adhesion to dentin. Human third molars (n=96) were sectioned to expose the mid-coronal dentin and divided into eight experimental groups (n=12 per group), namely, Group 1: CSB, Group 2: CSB+1.5 mg DP, Group 3: CSB+3 mg DP, Group 4: CSB+4.5 mg DP, Group 5: SB, Group 6...

The maximal rate of fall in right ventricular pressure (negative dp/dt) was evaluated in 34 patients. Eight had normal pulmonary arterial pressure. Seventeen had pulmonary arterial hypertension, and nine had pulmonary arterial hypertension with right ventricular failure. The right ventricular maximal negative dp/dt in patients with normal pulmonary arterial pressure was 170 +/- 20 mm Hg/sec. In...
