Fourier transform with matched non-linear frequency modulation in femtosecond laser ranging with imbalanced dispersion.

We propose a new algorithm based on the Fourier transform with matched non-linear frequency modulation for processing femtosecond laser ranging data. The algorithm allows us to compensate for both the influence of the third-order dispersion in the fiber-based dispersive Fourier spectrometer and the influence of imbalanced second- and third-order dispersions in the interferometer. Computer simulations and experimental results show that the proposed algorithm significantly increases the accuracy of measuring the position of an object at larger displacements than the well-established non-linear time stretching.

Phantasus, a web application for visual and interactive gene expression analysis.

Transcriptomic profiling became a standard approach to quantify a cell state, which led to the accumulation of huge amount of public gene expression datasets. However, both reuse of these datasets or analysis of newly generated ones requires significant technical expertise. Here, we present Phantasus: a user-friendly web application for interactive gene expression analysis which provides a streamlined access to more than 96,000 public gene expression datasets, as well as allows analysis of user-uploaded datasets.

Features of work conditions on small and medium business enterprises.

Physiologic and hygienic evaluation covered work conditions on small business enterprises of retail and minor wholesale trade. Major unfavorable occupational factor for minor retail seller of foods is work process hardiness (up to 85% of <>). This work affects the workers' state, with 100% reports of the health state changes by the end of the working day.

[METHODS OF MODELING TEMPERATURE REGIMES IN TESTS OF POLYMER CONTAINING BUILDING MATERIALS AND FURNITURE FOR HOMES AND PUBLIC BUILDINGS].

This article is devoted to the modeling of temperature conditions in performance of research of polymer containing building materials and furniture. The authors draw attention to the different conditions of modeling used in the existing guidance documents, and provide a unified approach to this problem, namely in the performance of the study to use the temperature regime, which corresponds to the maximum value of the optimum temperature range for residential and industrial premises.

[IDENTIFICATION OF RISK FACTORS IN THE PRODUCTION OF SYNTHETIC RUBBER].

There was performed the identification of risk factors at the production of synthetic rubbers, priority factor of them is chemical. Results of researches testify to need of continuous monitoring of exposure of chemicals on atmospheric air of the residential territory for the purpose of securance of hygienic and ecological safety of the city.

[Erythrone system in aged patients with chronic cardiac insufficiency].

Basic mechanisms underlying the development of chronic cardiac insufficiency (CCI) in aged subjects were investigated in a randomized study of 30 patients with I-IV functional class CCI and preserved left ventricular systolic function. CCI affected the left side of the heart in 23 patients due to concurrent hypertensive disease and the right side in 7 patients with concomitant chronic broncho-pulmonary pathology. Mean age of the patients was 65 years.

[Immunological correction in progressive pulmonary tuberculosis].

The authors used their immunological correction method to treat 154 patients with progressive pulmonary tuberculosis. Of them, 38 patients received standard antituberculosis therapy (Group 1), 39 had additionally paravasal lymphotrophic immunological correction (Group 2), and 38 took antituberculous drugs in accordance with individual regimens (Group 3), and 39 patients were treated by individual regimens during immunological correction (Group 4). After termination of the basic course of chemotherapy, clinical cure was achieved in 61.

[The immune and fibrinolytic systems in heart failure developing against a background of cardiac atherosclerosis].

A study made to gain insight into the bodily immune and fibrinolytic systems in 72 patients with cardiac insufficiency developed against the background of cardial atherosclerosis showed imbalance in the ratio of cellular to humoral links of immunity and enhancement of the autoimmune processed activity, inhibition of activity of the monocytomacrophagal link. Disturbances in the fibrinolytic system were manifested by blood and urine lowering of activity of the plasminogen activator, with the antiplasmin activity being on the decrease as well, which fact is regarded as formation of a new stationary state in the system of haemocoagulation maintaining hemostasis.

[Immune and fibrinolytic system functions in the cardiac manifestations of atherosclerosis].

A total of 77 patients with various clinical forms of cardiac atherosclerosis were examined. Fibrinolytic and immune systems were studied together with blood plasma concentration of fibronectine. Disorders of the same type have been revealed of immunologic reactivity manifested by enhancement of humoral immunity and impairment of cellular immunity, increase in coagulative activity, decline in the activity of the system of fibrinolysis.

[The functional activity of the poly- and mononuclear leukocytes in patients with different clinical forms of ischemic heart disease].

While studying the functional activity of poly- and mononuclear leucocytes in 75 patients with various clinical types of ischemic heart disease (angina of effort, angina decubitus, arrhythmias, cardiac insufficiency at the background of atherosclerotic cardiosclerosis and atherosclerotic hypertension), decline in the functional activity of the phagocytizing cells has been revealed, this being considered to be a pathogenetic prerequisite for atherosclerosis progression.

[The role of the immune and fibrinolytic systems in the inhibition of atherogenesis in chronic obstructive bronchitis].

A study of the immune and fibrinolytic systems of the body in 216 patients with different clinical forms of atherosclerosis (exertion and rest stenocardia, arrhythmias, atherosclerotic hypertension), chronic obstructive bronchitis revealed that the antiatherogenous effect of chronic obstructive bronchitis is predetermined on the one side by an increased function of the monocytic-macrophagal link of immunity and on the other by activation of the fibrinolysis system.

[Fibrinolysis, interleukins and coronary atherosclerosis].

The study of the fibrinolytic system and the activity of interleukin 1 and 2 in 75 patients with various cardial manifestations of atherosclerosis (angina of effort, angina decubitus, arrhythmia, symptomatic hypertension) revealed a decrease in the activity of plasminogen--a blood activator--in patients with angina of effort, angina decubitus and cardiac arrhythmias. In those with atherosclerotic hypertension the activatory activity was in the normal limits. A decrease in the activity of interleukin 1 and 2 was noted in all those examined.

[Changes in immune and fibrinolytic systems of patients with atherosclerosis and chronic nonspecific pulmonary diseases].

The study of immune and fibrinolytic systems in 216 atherosclerosis patients with associated chronic obstructions of the lungs revealed a discrete pattern of activity of plasminogen activator which is low in atherosclerosis in contrast to its elevation in combination of atherosclerosis with pulmonary obstructions. The latter cases manifest E-RFC relative number to be reduced in increased number of EAC-RFC. Growing amount of EA-RFM, elevated blood antithrombin III, activation of plasminogen activator in atherosclerosis coexistence with obstructive pulmonary lesions arrest the development of latent DIC syndrome and progression of atherosclerosis.
