COMMON-CAUSE FAILURES AS MAJOR ISSUE IN SAFETY OF CONTROL SYSTEMS

Common-cause Failures as Major Issue in Safety of Control Systems

In order to gain an improvement of safety or availability measures of the safety-relevant control system through employment of redundancy a redundant system has to comply with the requirement on independence of redundant parts.If the requirements on the independence of redundant parts are unfulfilled, then a common-cause failure can directly Speake

Specific patterns of gene space organisation revealed in wheat by using the combination of barley and wheat genomic resources

Abstract Background Because of its size, allohexaploid nature and high repeat content, the wheat genome has always been perceived as too complex for efficient molecular studies.We recently constructed the first physical map of a wheat chromosome (3B).However gene mapping is still laborious in wheat because of high redundancy between the three homoe

The Effect of Antiretroviral Combination Treatment on Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) Genome Load in HIV-Infected Patients

We evaluated the Summer Hat effect of combination anti-retroviral treatment (cART) on the host control of EBV infection in moderately immunosuppressed HIV-1 patients.Twenty HIV-1 infected individuals were followed for five years with repeated measurements of EBV DNA load in peripheral blood lymphocytes in relation to HIV-RNA titers and CD4+ cell co

Emerging Role of Helicobacter pylori in the Immune Evasion Mechanism of Gastric Cancer: An Insight Into Tumor Microenvironment-Pathogen Interaction

Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection Hoodie is the strongest causative factor of gastric cancer.Growing evidence suggests that the complex crosstalk of H.pylori and the tumor microenvironment (TME) exerts a profound influence on gastric cancer progression.Hence, there is emerging interest to in-depth comprehension of the mechanisms of interplay
