Open AccessClinical predictive value of the age, creatinine, and ejection fraction score in patients in acute type A aortic dissection after total arch replacement
The age, creatinine, and ejection fraction (ACEF) score has been accepted as a predictor of poor outcome in elective operations. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of ACEF score in acute type...

Combining single-molecule sequencing and Illumina RNA sequencing to elucidate flowering induction of pineapple (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.) treated with exogenous ethylene
Exogenous ethylene (ethephon) is widely used to induce pineapple (Ananas comosus (L.) Merr.) flowering. However, economic losses often occur due to inappropriate flower induction, which results in a lower floweri...

Dynamics in phase transitions of TASEP coupled with multi-lane SEPs
In this paper, we study a traffic model constituted by totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) and two-lane simple exclusion processes (SEP). Then we generalize it to study TASEP coupled with multi...

Effect of Car Length in the Biham-Middleton-Levine Traffic Model
The Biham-Middleton-Levine (BML) model is the simplest cellular automaton model of traffic in idealized networks of streets in cities. Three phases (i.e., free flow phase, jam phase, and intermediate stable ph...
