Real-time online optimisation plays a crucial role in high-frequency trading (HFT) strategies. The Markowitz model, as a Nobel Prize-winning framework, is widely used for portfolio management optimisation by framing the problem as a constrained quadratic programming task. While conventional analytical methods are typically effective for solving quadratic programming problems with linear constraints, the introduction of both linear equality and inequality constraints in the Markowitz model necessitates the use of numerical methods.

Tissue-resident fibroblasts with immunomodulatory properties have recently been identified as key players in inflammation. However, their roles within the periodontal niche in diabetes-associated periodontitis remain unclear. Interleukin (IL)-33, known as an "alarmin" in inflammatory responses, has recently emerged as a potential contributor to periodontitis.

As the feature size of microelectronic circuits is scaling down to nanometer order, the increasing interconnect crosstalk, resistance-capacitance (RC) delay and power consumption can limit the chip performance and reliability. To address these challenges, new low-k dielectric (k < 2) materials need to be developed to replace current silicon dioxide (k = 3.9) or SiCOH, etc.

Objective: This study analyzes research trends in self-management among kidney transplant recipients to inform future directions.

Methods: Bibliometric analysis was performed on 444 English articles related to self-management of kidney transplant recipients in the Core Collection of Web of Science and Scopus databases using COOC 12.8, R software, Microsoft Excel 2019, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace, with a focus on citation ranking, publication year, journal, country, organization, author, impact factor, and keywords.

Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by peripheral blood monocytosis and bone marrow dysplasia. In approximately one-fourth of cases, CMML can demonstrate progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML), referred to as AML ex CMML. We present a 58-year-old woman with a past medical history of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) who demonstrated 24% bone marrow blasts on a repeat biopsy obtained two years after being diagnosed with CMML.
