MEI Kodierung der frühesten Notation in linienlosen Neumen

Das Optical Neume Recognition Project (ONRP) hat die digitale Kodierung von musikalischen Notationszeichen aus dem Jahr um 1000 zum Ziel – ein ambitioniertes Vorhaben, das die Projektmitglieder veranlasste, verschiedenste methodische Ansätze zu evaluieren. Die Optical Music Recognition-Software soll eine linienlose Notation aus einem der ältesten erhaltenen Quellen mit Notationszeichen, dem Antiphonar Hartker aus der Benediktinerabtei St. Gallen (Schweiz), welches heute in zwei Bänden in der Stiftsbibliothek in St. Gallen aufbewahrt wird, erfassen. Aufgrund der handgeschriebenen, linienlosen Notation stellt dieser Gregorianische Gesang den Forscher vor viele Herausforderungen. Das Werk umfasst über 300 verschiedene Neumenzeichen und ihre Notation, die mit Hilfe der Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) erfasst und beschrieben werden sollen. Der folgende Artikel beschreibt den Prozess der Adaptierung, um die MEI auf die Notation von Neumen ohne Notenlinien anzuwenden. Beschrieben werden Eigenschaften der Neumennotation, um zu verdeutlichen, wo die Herausforderungen dieser Arbeit liegen sowie die Funktionsweise des Classifiers, einer Art digitalen Neumenwörterbuchs

Molecular dynamics simulation of carbon dioxide in aqueous electrolyte solution

The structural properties and diffusion coefficients of the H2O+NaCl+CO2 ternary system at various NaCl concentrations, temperatures and pressures are investigated using molecular simulation. A CO2 potential model is selected for the simulation of CO2 diffusion coefficient in aqueous solution. As the most appropriate model, it produces simulation results which are in closest agreement with experimental data. The properties of the H2O+NaCl system are examined prior to the H2O+NaCl+CO2 system, including the radial distribution functions, coordination numbers and diffusion coefficients at various temperatures and pressures. Three aspects of the ternary system are studied. First, the diffusion coefficients of the ternary system at different NaCl concentrations are observed. The NaCl concentration is found to have a large impact on both the diffusion coefficients of the ternary system and also the cluster pattern of ions. Second, the diffusion coefficients of the system at different temperatures are studied. Raising the temperature increases the diffusion coefficients and facilitates formation of ions pairs. Finally, the diffusion coefficients of the ternary system at different pressures are investigated. Pressure also has impact, but to a much lesser degree. At 278 K, the higher the pressure, the greater value of the diffusion coefficient. In contrast at a temperature of 298 K, a pressure increase leads to lower diffusion coefficient. Hydrogen bonds at low temperatures may be the reason for the unusual phenomenon. The diffusion data are compared to predictions of two models proposed by Ratcliff and Holdcroft (1963). The first approach is based on activation theory and results in both a linear and exponential relationship. They preferred a linear model over an exponential model due to the limiting experimental data. However, we demonstrate that the exponential model is more suitable for predicting diffusion coefficient with the help of simulation data. The other approach is based on the relation between diffusion coefficient and viscosity, whereby the diffusion coefficient of the gas in electrolyte solution is derived from a given viscosity. The diffusion coefficients obtained from molecular simulation agree with the results from the two equations, demonstrating the accuracy of the two prediction equations

DataSheet2_Pan-Cancer Analysis, Reveals COVID-19-Related BSG as a Novel Marker for Treatment and Identification of Multiple Human Cancers.PDF

Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been a public threat and healthcare concern caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. During the period of the pandemic of COVID-19, cancer patients should be paid more attention as more severe events are found in cancer patients infected with SARS-CoV-2. Basigin (BSG) is an essential factor for the infection and progression of COVID-19 and tumorigenesis of multiple tumors, which may serve as a novel target for the effective treatment against COVID-19 and multiple human cancers.Methods: A total of 19,020 samples from multiple centers were included in our research for the comprehensive investigation of the differences in BSG expression among human organs, cancer cells, cancer tissues, and normal tissues. Cox regression analysis and Kaplan–Meier curves were utilized to explore the prognosis factor of BSG in cancers. Correlation analyses were used to determine associations of BSG expression with tumor mutational burden, the immune microenvironment, etc. Gene set enrichment analysis was applied to explore the underlying mechanisms of BSG in cancers.Results: Compared with normal tissues, BSG expression was high in 13 types of cancers (cholangiocarcinoma, etc.) and low in colon adenocarcinoma and rectum adenocarcinoma. BSG expression was related to the prognosis of eight cancers (e.g., invasive breast carcinoma) (p 0.7). The BSG expression was associated with DNA methyltransferases, mismatch repair genes, immune infiltration levels, tumor mutational burden, microsatellite instability, neoantigen, and immune checkpoints, suggesting the potential of BSG as an exciting target for cancer treatment. BSG may play its role in several cancers by affecting several signaling pathways such as drug cytochrome metabolism P450 and JAK-STAT.Conclusion:BSG may be a novel biomarker for treating and identifying multiple human cancers.</p

Image1_Construction and Validation of a Novel Prognostic Signature of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis by Identifying Subtypes Based on Genes Related to 7-Methylguanosine Modification.TIF

Background: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the interstitial lung disease with the highest incidence and mortality. The lack of specific markers results in limited treatment methods for IPF patients. Numerous prognostic signatures represented effective indexes in predicting the survival of patients in various diseases; however, little is investigated on their application in IPF.Methods: This study attempted to explore the clinical markers suitable for IPF by constructing a prognostic signature from the perspective of 7-methylguanosine (m7G). An m7G-related prognostic signature (m7GPS) was established based on the discovery cohort with the LASSO algorithm and was verified by internal and external validation cohorts. The area under the curve (AUC) values were utilized to assess the accuracy of m7GPS in predicting the prognosis of IPF patients and the ability of m7GPS in screening IPF patients. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression analyses were used to identify the relationship of m7GPS with the prognosis of IPF individuals. Enrichment analyses, CIBERSORT algorithm, and weighted gene co-expression network analysis were applied to explore the underlying mechanisms and correlation of m7GPS in IPF.Results: The two m7G regulatory genes can divide IPF into subtypes 1 and 2, and subtype 2 demonstrated a poor prognosis for IPF patients (p 1, p Conclusion: This study developed a novel m7GPS, which is a reliable indicator for predicting the survival status of IPF patients and is identified as an effective marker for prognosis and screening of IPF patients.</p
