Determining the thermal profile of ignition is important because the desired ignition behavior varies with the objective. For example, extended ignition prolongs the time that the engine runs; however, fast ignition offers a higher power gain. The pollution caused by undesirable chemical reactions, as determined by the ignition profile, is another important aspect.

The information about certain networks of biochemical reactions constantly increases. This leads to detailed descriptions of biochemical processes as a system of differential equations of high complexity and dimension.

The long-term results of treatment in patients with different clinical forms of sarcoidosis were studied, by using both prednisolone and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). No therapeutic measures were implemented in some patients. The total number of patients was 1587; the time of a follow-up was 2 to 10 years after completion of treatment or, in the latter's absence, after detection of the disease.
