Peristaltic transport of multilayered power-law fluids with distinct viscosities: a mathematical model for intestinal flows

This paper is concerned with the theoretical study of two-dimensional peristaltic flow of power-law fluids in three layers with different viscosities. The analysis is carried out under low Reynolds number and long wavelength approximations. The shapes of the interfaces are described by a system of non-linear algebraic equations which are solved numerically as streamlines. It is found that the non-uniformity in the intermediate and peripheral layers diminishes when the viscosity of the intermediate layer is increased and that of the outermost layer is kept unaltered for both the pseudo-plastic and dilatant fluids. Similar are the observations when the viscosity of the outermost layer is increased and that of the intermediate layer is kept fixed. The flow rate increases with the viscosities of the peripheral and the intermediate layers but the viscosity of the outermost layer is more effective. However, the knowledge of the effect of the viscosity of the intermediate layer facilitates us to achieve the required flow rate without disturbing the outermost layer. An increase in the flow behaviour index too favours larger flow rates. The trapping limits increase with the viscosity of the intermediate layer but decrease with the viscosity of the outermost layer and the flow behaviour index. Thus, a medicinal intervention that creates a more viscous intermediate layer and reduces pseudo plasticity may reduce constipation.     

Classification of Early Stages of Esophageal Cancer Using Transfer Learning

ObjectivesEsophageal Cancer is the sixth most common cancer with a high fatality rate. Early prognosis of esophageal abnormalities can improve the survival rate of the patients. The sequence of the progress of the esophageal cancer is from esophagitis to non-dysplasia Barrett's esophagus to dysplasia Barrett's esophagus to esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). Many studies revealed a 5-fold increase in EAC patients diagnosed with esophagitis, and those diagnosed with Barrett's esophagus have a greater risk of EAC.Material and methodsConvolutional Neural Network (CNN) with efficient feature extractors enable better prognosis of the pre cancerous stage, Barrett's esophagus and esophagitis. The transfer learning techniques with CNN can extract more relevant features for the automated classification of Barrett's esophagus and esophagitis. This paper presents a study on the classification of the esophagitis and Barrett's esophagus (BE) using Deep Convolution Neural Networks (DCNN).ResultsIn the first experiment, the DCNN models perform as a feature extractor, and standard classifiers do the classification. The performance analysis shows that the CNN model ResNet50 with Support Vector Machine (SVM) has an accuracy of 93.5%, recall 93.5%, precision 93.4%, f score 93.5%, AUC 89.8%. In the second experiment, the DCNN classification models perform the classification with Transfer Learning and fine-tuning. The ResNet50 model has improved accuracy of 94.46%, precision 94.46%, f score 94.46%, AUC 96.20%.ConclusionThe ResNet50 model with transfer learning and fine-tuning gives a better performance than the ResNet50 model with SVM classifier. Our experiments show that the DCNN is effective for diagnosing EAC, both as feature extractors and classification models with transfer learning and fine-tuning.     

Allopurinol and xanthine use different translocation mechanisms and trajectories in the fungal UapA transporter

In Aspergillus nidulans UapA is a H⁺-driven transporter specific for xanthine, uric acid and several analogues. Here, genetic and physiological evidence is provided showing that allopurinol is a high-affinity, low-capacity, substrate for UapA. Surprisingly however, transport kinetic measurements showed that, uniquely among all recognized UapA substrates, allopurinol is transported by apparent facilitated diffusion and exhibits a paradoxical effect on the transport of physiological substrates. Specifically, excess xanthine or other UapA substrates inhibit allopurinol uptake, as expected, but the presence of excess allopurinol results in a concentration-dependent enhancement of xanthine binding and transport. Flexible docking approaches failed to detect allopurinol binding in the major UapA substrate binding site, which was recently identified by mutational analysis and substrate docking using all other UapA substrates. These results and genetic evidence suggest that the allopurinol translocation pathway is distinct from, but probably overlapping with, that of physiological UapA substrates. Furthermore, although the stimulating effect of allopurinol on xanthine transport could, in principle, be rationalized by a cryptic allopurinol-specific allosteric site, evidence was obtained supporting that accelerated influx of xanthine is triggered through exchange with cytoplasmically accumulated allopurinol. Our results are in line with recently accumulating evidence revealing atypical and complex mechanisms underlying transport systems.     

胃食管反流病中安慰剂反应率的相关研究

目的：对胃食管反流病（GERD）随机对照试验中的安慰剂反应率进行Meta分析并研究影响该反应率的因素。方法：检索EMBASE,CochraneControlledTrialRegister和Medline数据库中公开发表的关于双盲、随机、安慰荆对照治疗GERD的英文文献,所有文献均包括质子泵抑制剂／H2受体阻滞剂,治疗时间至少为2周。对文献试验数据进行Meta分析,绘制森林图,同时绘制漏斗图检查发表偏倚。结果：纳入24个研究,共包括8917名患者。有效治疗的反应率与安慰剂反应率相比的OR为3．70（95％CI：2．77～4．95）。所有的安慰剂反应率为18．84％（2．93％-47．05％）。运用质子泵抑制剂治疗的患者与H：受体阻滞剂治疗者相比,安慰剂反应率明显降低（14．50％vs．24．68％,P=0．05）。糜烂性食管炎患者的安慰剂反应率与非糜烂性食管炎者相比略低,两者差异无显著性（P〉0．05）。结论：在GERD随机对照试验中,安慰剂反应率确实存在。该反应率降低与质子泵抑制剂的运用相关,而与腐蚀性食管炎的存在与否无关。
