Second, do these views change with time and with candidates, or are they fairly consistent across elections? Third, were the unique candidate demographics (religion, race, gender, and age
Are Patients with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Ideal Candidates for Oocyte Donation?

Background. The use of donated oocytes for in vitro fertilization treatment in patients with ovarian failure is universally recognized. But would patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) be a good choice for egg donation programs? Objective. Comparing the pregnancy rates of egg receptors from donor patients diagnosed with PCOS to receptors from donors without PCOS. Design. Retrospective cohort study. Methods. A total of 234 patients who had undergone egg reception program were separated into two groups: Group I, receptors from PCOS donors ( = 36); Group II, receptors from donors without PCOS ( = 198). Medical records were reviewed and the fertilization, implantation, and pregnancy rates were calculated. Results. PCOS patients had an average of 3.23 more oocytes retrieved, but there were no differences in the number of mature oocytes that were used for donation between the groups. We also observed that the number of transferred embryos was also not significantly different, as well as the fertilization and implantation rates. The clinical pregnancy rates were not significantly different: 28% and 26% in Group I and Group II, respectively. Conclusions. Women with PCOS should not be excluded from egg donation programs.
Candidate Multilinear Maps from Ideal Lattices and Applications
, 2012
"... We describe plausible lattice-based constructions wit hproperties that approximate the sought after multilinear maps in hard-discrete-logarithm groups, and show that some applications of such multi-linear maps can be realized using our approximations. The security of our constructions relies on seem ..."

Graph Indexing: A Frequent Structure-based Approach
, 2004
"... Graph has become increasingly important in modelling complicated structures and schemaless data such as proteins, chemical compounds, and XML documents. Given a graph query, it is desirable to retrieve graphs quickly from a large database via graph-based indices. In this paper, we investigate the is ..."

Di#erent from the existing path-based methods, our approach, called gIndex, makes use of frequent substructure as the basic indexing feature. Frequent substructures are ideal candidates since they explore

1 Ideal Multilinear Maps based on Ideal Lattices

However, the encodings of three current constructions are “noisy ” and their multilinearity levels are fixed and bounded in advance. In this paper, we describe a candidate con ..."
