Software Defined Networks (SDN) isolate the control plane from the data plane, allowing a global view of the network and providing a high level programmable network. This can be very useful for managing network access control by associating device flows to user profiles. This paper proposes a tool for managing user profiles by authorizing device flows using software-defined networks. This tool has been implemented on the OpenFlow controller POX. In this paper we describe the experiments performed and the results obtained, which show the efficacy and the ease of use of the mechanism.
Ongoing cancer evolution gives rise to intra-tumour heterogeneity (ITH), which is a major mechanism of therapeutic resistance and therefore an important clinical challenge. However, the extent, origin and drivers of ITH across cancer types are poorly understood. Here, we extensively characterise ITH across 2,778 cancer whole genome sequences from 36 cancer types. We demonstrate that nearly all tumours (94.7%) with sufficient sequencing depth contain evidence of recent subclonal expansions, and that most cancer types show clear signs of positive selection in both clonal and subclonal protein coding variants. We find distinctive subclonal patterns of driver gene mutations, fusions, structural variation and copy-number alterations across cancer types. Dynamic, tumour type-specific changes of mutational processes between subclonal expansions shape differences between clonal and subclonal events. Our results underline the importance of ITH and its drivers in tumour evolution, and provide an unprecedented pan-cancer resource of extensively annotated subclonal events, laying a foundation for future cancer genomic studies.
The biosensors are based on the electrons movement, i.e. electronic current determination as a reaction of enzyme-catalyzed redox reaction. Generally a normal contact voltage passes through the electrodes to analyze. In the enzymatic reaction which produces the substrate or product can transfer the electrons with the surface of electrodes to be reduced. As a result an alternate current flow can be measured. The substrate concentration is directly proportional to the magnitude of the current. The reduction of oxygen is acquired through the oxygen electrodes and it is a simple way to from an amperometric biosensor (Figure 2). The example is the determination of glucose by glucose. The above description is about the first generation of amperometric biosensor and it has a direct transfer of electrons which are released from the electrodes are having some difficulties. The second generation amperometric biosensors are developed in a mediator takes the electrons and transfer to the electrodes.
Introduction: Until recently, gastric cancer represented the most common visceral neoplasm. In Japan, the prevalence of disease is 58.4 per 100,000 inhabitants for men and 29.9 for women. Here, the incidence is lower. Gastrectomy is the most common surgical method of treating carcinomas of the stomach. Aim of the Study: To determine which method of reconstruction after gastrectomy improves the quality of life optimally. Patients and Methods: We analyzed 221 patient operated on for gastric cancer at the Surgical Clinic of the University Clinical Center in Banja Luka, and the subject of a detailed analysis of the 111 patients who were operated with the intention of achieving curability. Results: Reflux esophagitis is dominant modality in reconstruction wth omega loop (p <0.05). Analyzing GIQLI, we found dominant modality GIQLI II in the total gastrectomy and reconstruction options RY, while predominantly GIQLI III was registered in HLR reservoir reconstruction method (p <0.01). And two hours after the ingestion of a meal labeled with a radioisotope Tc99m in artificial gastric reservoir (HLR) showed signs of radioactivity (about 10% amount). “H0 performance” (AJCC / UICC) was the most frequently recorded in subtotal gastrectomy, while there was significant appearance of “H1” and “H2” modalities with the total gastrectomy statistically. In RY reconstruction, statistically significant was participation modalities “H1”, while “H1” performance (AJCC / UICC) was the dominant modality at the HLR options reconstruction with statistically significant frequency of occurrence (p <0.01). Conclusion: The results of the assessment of quality of life are comparable with the results of other statistical series. They confirm antireflux component Roux en Y reconstructions and its intestinoplications and highlight the advantage of the nutritional components loop modifications (creation pouch-a).
Introduction: Testicular tumors account for approximately 1% of all malignancies in men, but the age of patients and its increasing incidence make this malignancy one of the leading oncological problems. In spite of the fact that the testicles are organs accessible for self-examination and the accessibility of ultrasound examination as the method of choice in diagnostics, these tumors are often detected in an advanced stage of the disease. Aim of the Study: The aim of this study is to evaluate the occurrence of advanced disease at the time of diagnosis of testicular germ cell tumors, through retrospective analysis. Patients and Methods: Our study examines patients with testicular germ cell tumor (seminomatous and non-seminomatous) according to numerous parameters - anamnesis with special emphasis on risk factors, clinical examination, laboratory analyses with tumor markers, and diagnostic imaging examinations (thorax, abdomen and pelvis CT scan). Before the specific treatment, spermiogram and semen cryopreservation were done for most patients, while in some cases additional diagnostics (MRI of the endocranium, skeletal scintigraphy) was indicated as well. Results: During the observation period, 132 patients with testicular germ cell tumor were treated and observed, of which 58 patients (44%) with seminomatous tumor type and 74 patients (56%) with non-seminomatous tumors. Of the total number of patients, at the time of disease diagnosis, there were 41 patients (31%) with N1- N3 status of retroperitoneal lymph nodes and 17 patients (12.8%) with M1a-M1b metastatic status. Conclusion: A large number of newly detected testicular tumors are diagnosed in an advanced stage of the disease. It is necessary to raise awareness of the general population about this malignancy, emphasise the importance of self-examination in younger men, and promote the possibility of routine ultrasound examinations with the aim of early detection of the disease.
Spontaneous spleen rupture rarely occurs, and is primarily present in patients with splenomegaly. This is a life-threatening condition that, without adequate surgical treatment, always ends lethally. The very etiology of spontaneous atriumatic spleen rupture is not known, but it can often be associated with neoplastic diseases, liver cirrhosis, and some infectious diseases. Diagnosis is made by non-invasive methods (findings of red blood cell elements, ultrasonography, computerized tomography of abdominal CT, magnetic resonance NMR). The therapy consists of laparotomy, evacuation of the haemorrhagic content and removal of the spleen. Surgical treatment is successful, and as a postoperative complication, bleeding may occur as a result of inadequate care of the laryngeal artery and vein, and short gastric blood vessels. Here we presented a 58- year- old male patient who, due to a marked abdominal pain, low blood pressure, and low blood cell counts, was taken to hospital and successfully surgically treated at the Clinic for General and Abdominal Surgery.
