Exhausted T cells and regulatory T (Treg) cells have been recently proposed to be new risk factors for recurrent miscarriage (RM). Intravenous immunoglobulin G (IVIG) treatment reported to modulate various immune cells. In this study, the effects of IVIG on the frequency and function of exhausted T cells, exhausted Tregs, and Treg cells, as well as pregnancy outcome in women with unexplained RM (URM), were investigated. Ninety-four pregnant women with RM were enrolled. At the time of positive pregnancy, blood samples were drawn. Forty-four patients with URM were included as IVIG receiving treated group and received 400 mg/kg of IVIG and the rest fifty patients were considered as a control group and received no IVIG administration. IVIG was given intravenously every 4 weeks during 32 weeks of gestation. Blood samples of patients were collected after the latest administration. Exhausted T cells, exhausted Tregs, and Treg cells were evaluated pre- and posttreatment in both groups. IVIG induced a significant decrease in the frequency of exhausted Tregs population and function as well as a significant increase in Treg cells population, however, IVIG failed to affect population and the function of exhausted T cells. Pregnancy outcome was successful in IVIG treated women (86.3%) and were significantly different (P = 0.0006) in compared with the untreated URM subjects (42%). Therefore, employing of IVIG increases Treg cells and diminishes exhausted Tregs responses in RM patients with cellular immune anomalies throughout the pregnancy. Immunemodulatory effects of IVIG are probably associated with successful pregnancy outcome. 相似文献

Voice impairments, attention to increased unhealthy social behavior and voice abuse, have been increasing dramatically. Therefore, diagnosis of voice diseases has an important role in the opportune treatment of pathologic voices. This paper presents an extensive study in identification of different voice disorders which their origin is in the vocal folds. Firstly, a qualitative study is applied based on short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and continuous wavelet transform (CWT) in order to investigate their aptitude in the presentation of discriminative features to identify disordered voices from normal ones. Therefore, wavelet packet transform (WPT) for their ability to analyze scrutinizingly a signal at several levels of resolution is chosen as strong speech signal parameterization method. The ability of energy and entropy features, obtained from the coefficients in the output nodes of the optimum wavelet packet tree, is investigated. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) and principal component analysis (PCA) are evaluated as feature dimension reduction methods in order to optimize recognition algorithm. The performance of each structure is evaluated in terms of the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and area under the receiver operating curve (AUC). Eventually, entropy features in the sixth level of WPT decomposition along with feature dimension reduction by LDA and a support vector machine-based classification method is the most optimum algorithm that leads to the recognition rate of 100% and AUC of 100%. Proposed system clearly outperforms previous works in both respect of accuracy and reduction of residues; which may lead in full accuracy and high speed diagnosis procedure. 相似文献

Mahshahr has a strategic position and is considered as industrial hub of Iran. Selected heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) contamination and health risk, and the mineralogical composition of street dust from Mahshahr were investigated. Results indicated that geology is the main determinant of the dust mineralogical composition. Calculated enrichment factor (EF) and principal component analysis (PCA) showed that Pb, Hg, Zn, and Cu accumulations are greatly influenced by anthropogenic sources including traffic and industry. High heavy metals content poses great ecological risk in the study area and exposure doses revealed that ingestion is the main exposure route to street dust, especially for children in residential/commercial areas. It was found that the total amount of PAHs (∑PAHs) varies from 161 to 1996 µg/kg, dominated by four-ring PAHs. Diagnostic ratios and PCA showed that both petrogenic and pyrogenic sources of PAHs in Mahshahr street dust and traffic play important roles in this respect. Furthermore, toxic equivalents and incremental lifetime cancer risk of PAHs in street dust indicated a high potential carcinogenic risk for inhabitants mainly via dermal contact and ingestion pathways particularly for outdoor workers in industrial use scenario. Finally, distribution maps of total hazard index of heavy metals and cancer risk of PAHs indicated the most impacted zones for different groups and use scenarios. 相似文献

In the present study Cervatana and Almagra models from decision support system, MicroLEIS DSS, were applied to segregation
of arable land surfaces from the marginal ones and suitability evaluation of wheat (Triticum aestivum), maize (Zea mays) and alfalfa (Medicago sativa) in Souma area with approximately 4100 ha extension in West Azarbaijan. Obtained results from both models are presented and
discussed in this research work. Soil morphological and analytical data were collected from 35 soil profiles, representative
of the study area and stored in SDBm plus database. The control or vertical section of soil for applying and running the models
for annual selected crops, was calculated by soil layer generator 0.0–50 cm in depth, or between the surface and the limit
of useful depth when the latter is between 0.0 and 50 cm. According to results, 80.49% of the total area was good capable
for agricultural uses and 19.51% must be reforested and not dedicated to agriculture. The lands with good capability for agricultural
uses is classified as highly suitable area (S2) for wheat, maize and alfalfa, but results in 822 ha for maize and in 126 ha
for alfalfa refers to an excellent suitable (S1) and moderately suitable (S3) classes respectively. The most important limitation
factors are soil texture and carbonate alone or together and maize — wheat — alfalfa can be selected as the best crop rotation.
A simple map subsystem (ArcView GIS) was used for basic data and models result demonstration on a map. 相似文献

Several recent studies have reported a decline in virus retention during virus challenge filtration experiments, although the mechanism(s) governing this phenomenon for different filters remains uncertain. Experiments were performed to evaluate the retention of PP7 and PR772 bacteriophage through Ultipor VF Grade DV20 virus filters during constant pressure filtration. While the larger PR772 phage was fully retained under all conditions, a 2‐log decline in retention of the small PP7 phage was observed at high throughputs, even under conditions where there was no decline in filtrate flux. In addition, prefouling the membrane with an immunoglobulin G solution had no effect on phage retention. An internal polarization model was developed to describe the decline in phage retention arising from the accumulation of phage in the upper (reservoir) layer within the filter which increases the challenge to the lower (rejection) layer. Independent support for this internal polarization phenomenon was provided by confocal microscopy of fluorescently labeled phage within the membrane. The model was in good agreement with phage retention data over a wide range of phage titers, confirming that virus retention is throughput dependent and supporting current recommendations for virus retention validation studies. These results provide important insights into the factors governing virus retention by membrane filters and their dependence on the underlying structure of the virus filter membrane. © 2014 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

In this paper, a most sensitive electrochemical biosensor for detection of prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) was designed. To reach the goal, a sandwich type electrode composed of reduced graphene oxide/ gold nanoparticles (GO/AuNPs), Anti‐Total PSA monoclonal antibody, and anti‐Free PSA antibody was assembled. The functionalized materials were thoroughly characterized by atomic force microscope spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X‐ray diffraction techniques. The electrochemical properties of each of the modification step were evaluated by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results presented that the proposed biosensor possesses high sensitivity toward total and free PSA. Furthermore, the fabricated biosensor revealed an excellent selectivity for PSA in comparison to the other tumor markers such as BHCG, Alb, CEA, CA125, and CA19‐9. The limit of detection for the proposed electrochemical biosensor was estimated to be around 0.2 and 0.07 ng/mL for total and free PSA antigen, respectively. 相似文献
