ASCIA was formed in 1991 by the merging of the Australian College of Allergy with the Australasian Society of Immunology Clinical Immunology Group. [ 1 ] ASCIA publishes guidelines and position statements on the management of allergy and other immune diseases, provides online training courses, online educational resources, hosts the ASCIA ...
Autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants (ASIA), or Shoenfeld's syndrome, is a hypothesised autoimmune disorder proposed by Israeli immunologist Yehuda Shoenfeld in 2011. [1]
Minimisation is a method of adaptive stratified sampling that is used in clinical trials, as described by Pocock and Simon. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The aim of minimisation is to minimise the imbalance between the number of patients in each treatment group over a number of factors.
Ascia is a genus of butterflies in the family Pieridae. It is monotypic , being represented by the single species Ascia monuste , commonly known as the great southern white , [ 2 ] In this species the sexes may differ with the female being either light or dark colored.
The geometric interpretation of Newton's method is that at each iteration, it amounts to the fitting of a parabola to the graph of () at the trial value , having the same slope and curvature as the graph at that point, and then proceeding to the maximum or minimum of that parabola (in higher dimensions, this may also be a saddle point), see below.
Ted Steele hypothesized the RNA/RT-based mechanism of somatic hypermutation.. This is known as neo-Lamarckism. [1] Steele's hypothesis provided the first mechanism to explain Lamarckian evolution: when successful somatic cell changes occur due to environmental changes, copies of the copious new messenger-RNA that have been produced by the successful cells are picked up by harmless retroviruses ...
The conjugate gradient method can also be used to solve unconstrained optimization problems such as energy minimization. It is commonly attributed to Magnus Hestenes and Eduard Stiefel, [1] [2] who programmed it on the Z4, [3] and extensively researched it. [4] [5] The biconjugate gradient method provides a generalization to non-symmetric matrices.
Microsopic image of a fascial structure (Ligamentum nuchae).A fascia (/ ˈ f æ ʃ (i) ə /; pl.: fasciae / ˈ f æ ʃ i i / or fascias; [1] adjective fascial; from Latin band) is a generic term for macroscopic membranous bodily structures.
