The original guidelines were published in HEPATOLOGY 2001;34:1225–1241.1 In light of recent progress, particu-larly in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B, these guidelines were updated in September of 2003. A complete version of the updated guidelines, including a review of recently

Periarteritis nodosa is an inade-quate descriptive term since all coats of the vessel are involved, and since nodules may or may not be present. Polyarteritis is a more exact name. Po ..."

Manifestation of hormesis in longevity was modelled by modification of the mortality rate during and after the period of a stress factor action. In heterogeneous population this can lead to observation of unchanged mortality during action of the stress and decrease in mortality after stress period. Stochastic simulations were made to investigate the possibility of detecting the hormesis effect on the basis of the stress-control longitudinal data. The goal of the stochastic simulation was to investigate the role in the hormesis detection of control and stressed group size, of population heterogeneity variance value, of stress and hormesis attributable risks as well as the role of a prior information about the survival in the control group. It was demonstrated that if the attributable risks for stress and hormesis effects are approximately equal, then in both ‘high ’ and ‘low ’ heterogeneous populations the hormesis phenomenon is detected with probability higher than 75 % even in relatively ‘small ’ groups of 50 subjects. In case of ‘weak ’ effect the hormesis phenomenon is not detected in a ‘highly heterogeneous ’ population even in a group composed of 1000 subjects. In a ‘low heterogeneous ’ population the hormesis phenomenon is detected with probability higher than 70 % when the group size is not less than 200 subjects. Information about the survival in control
Dropout from higher education: A theoretical synthesis of recent research

"... Despite the very extensive literature on dropout from higher education, much remains unknown about the nature of the dropout process. In large measure, the failure of past research to delineate more clearly the multiple characteristics of dropout can be traced to two major shortcomings; namely, inad ..."

Exact Matrix Completion via Convex Optimization

Suppose that we observe m entries selected uniformly at random from a matrix M. Can we complete the matrix and recover the entries that we have not seen? We show that one can perfe ..."
