Abstract High-frequency financial market data is conceptually distinct from high energy physics (HEP) data. Market a time series generated by participants, while HEP set of independent events collisions between particles. However, there are similarities within the structure and required tools for analysis, both fields share similar problems facing increasing size generated. This paper describes...

BACKGROUND For detection of anti-nuclear antibodies (ANAs) and antibodies to extractable nuclear antigens (ENAs), samples frequently are screened with indirect immunofluorescence (IIF); further determination of anti-ENA antibodies is performed only when the result is positive. However, because anti-ENA reactivities are found in samples with low fluorescence intensities, we determined anti-ENA a...

Senescence Marker Protein-30 (SMP30) is an androgen-independent factor that decreases with aging. We recently characterized SMP30 as a gluconolactonase (GNL) involved in the biosynthetic pathway of vitamin C and established that SMP30 knockout mice could not synthesize vitamin C in vivo. Although mice normally synthesize vitamin C, humans are prevented from doing so by mutations that have alter...

Hericium erinaceus (HEP) is a notable medicinal fungus grown in China and other oriental countries. Polysaccharides from HEP have recently attracted considerable attention due to their numerous physiological activities. The objective of this study was to evaluate the anti-fatigue activity of HEP in a mouse model. After one week of acclimation, mice were randomly divided into four groups: a cont...

In the framework of Regge phenomenology, masses of the charmed states cq̄ (q = u, d, s) lying on the 13S1-like trajectories are estimated. The overall agreement between our estimated masses and the recent predictions given by modified quark models[hep-ph/0605019, hep-ph/0608011, hep-ph/0608139] is good. Masses of the observed charmed statesDs0(2317), DsJ (2860) and DsJ(2690)/DsJ(2700) can be rea...

Monoclonal anti-nucleosome antibodies (mAbs) complexed to nucleosomal antigens can bind to DNA and to heparan sulfate (HS) in ELISA and to the GBM in vivo in a rat renal perfusion system, whereas non-complexed mAbs do not bind [1]. In this study, we analyzed whether heparin (HEP) or N-desulfated/acetylated heparins (DSA-HEP), structurally and functionally strongly related to HS, are able to pre...

The equations of motion of the massless sector of the two dimensional string theory, obtained by compactifying the heterotic string theory on an eight dimensional torus, is known to have an affine o(8, 24) symmetry algebra generating an O(8, 24) loop group. In this paper we study how various known discrete Sand T duality symmetries of the theory are embedded in this loop group. This allows us t...

The broad coverage of the search for the Higgs boson in the mainstream media is a relative novelty for high energy physics (HEP) research, whose achievements have traditionally been limited to scholarly literature. This paper illustrates the results of a scientometric analysis of HEP computing in scientific literature, institutional media and the press, and a comparative overview of similar met...
