Controlled Release of Hepatocyte Growth Factor from MPEG‐b‐(PCL‐ran‐PLLA) Diblock Copolymer for Improved Vocal Fold Regeneration

An in situ‐forming gel system comprised of diblock copolymer formed from polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polycaprolactone (PCL) {MPEG‐b‐(PCL‐ran‐PLLA)} could be used in controlled drug delivery for tissue remodeling. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate favorable vocal folds (VF) regeneration by using MPEG‐b‐(PCL‐ran‐PLLA) diblock copolymers (C97L3; CL/LA ratio 97:3) incorporating hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). Gradual release of HGF from C97L3 is detected and biochemical properties of released HGF are maintained. A scar is made with microscissors on both VFs in 32 rabbits, followed by injection of HGF‐only, C97L3‐only, or HGF‐C97L3 composite gel in the left side VF, while the right side VF is left untreated. In vivo fluorescence live imaging system demonstrates that C97L3 enables the sustained release of injected HGF in the scarred VF for 12 weeks. The histological analysis shows increased glycosaminoglycan including hyaluronic acid accumulation and decreased collagen deposition. Videokymographic analysis shows more favorable vibrations of HGF‐C97L3 treated VF mucosa, compared to other treatment groups. In conclusion, the controlled HGF release helps to regulate extracellular matrix synthesis, and leads to the eventual functional improvement of the scarred VF.

     

Study on convergence and error of a numerical method for solving systems of nonlinear Fredholm–Volterra integral equations of Hammerstein type

The aim of this paper is to present an efficient analytical and numerical procedure for solving systems of nonlinear Fredholm–Volterra integral equations of the Hammerstein type with the aid of fixed point techniques and the usual Schauder basis in an adequate Banach space.     

Continuity in law with respect to the Hurst index of some additive functionals of sub-fractional Brownian motion

In this article, first, we prove some properties of the sub-fractional Brownian motion introduced by Bojdecki et al. [Statist. Probab. Lett. 69(2004):405–419]. Second, we prove the continuity in law, with respect to small perturbations of the Hurst index, in some anisotropic Besov spaces, of some continuous additive functionals of the sub-fractional Brownian motion. We prove that our result can be obtained easily, by using the decomposition in law of the sub-fractional Brownian motion given by Bardina and Bascompte [Collect. Math. 61(2010):191–204] and Ruiz de Chavez and Tudor [Math. Rep. 11(2009):67–74], without using the result of Wu and Xiao [Stoch. Proc. Appl. 119(2009):1823–1844] by connecting the sub-fractional Brownian motion to its stationary Gaussian process through Lamperti’s transform. This decomposition in law leads to a better understanding and simple proof of our result.     

Field-based hypotheses on advancing standards for mathematical practice

The Common Core State Standards in Mathematics (CCSSM, 2010) are organized around two types of standards: the standards for mathematical content and standards for mathematical practice. The central goal of this paper is to present cognitive and instructional analyses of standards for mathematical practice through a discussion of field-based activities with inservice secondary mathematics teachers and students. A potential value of the study is that it provides researchers with specific field-based hypotheses on advancing standards for mathematical practice.

We extend the instrumental variable method for the mean regression models to linear quantile regression models with errors-in-variables. The proposed estimator is consistent and asymptotically normally distributed under some fairly general conditions. Moreover, this approach is practical and easy to implement. Simulation studies show that the finite sample performance of the estimator is satisfactory. The method is applied to a real data study of education and wages.

胜利断块油藏细分注水技术界限研究

老油田进入特高含水期后,剩余油分布更加零散,各种地质因素也因长期注水开发而发生了一定的改变.此时稳油控水难度进一步加大,为了进一步挖掘剩余油,控制含水上升速度、减缓产量递减,必须对注水井采取进一步的细分调整.基于水湿油藏注水井注水层段吸水效果,从注入水受力分析入手,运用达西定律推导出了水驱油藏水驱油全过程中的单位体积注入水沿竖直、地层两个方向运移的渗流速度公式,明晰了水驱油藏注水层段不同开发阶段砂岩吸水机理.研究结果表明,水驱油藏细分注水效果与岩石绝对渗透率、水相相对渗透率、注入水黏度、水动力压力梯度、注水井启动压力梯度、含水饱和度、地层倾角、油水密度差等参数有关.结合胜利油田断块油藏地质特征及细分注水工艺要求,制定了一套适合胜利油田不同断块区的细分注水技术政策界限:层段内渗透率变异系数小于0.3,砂岩条带宽度极比小于2.5,且东辛油区断块油藏层段内砂岩厚度小于6m,小层数小于4个;现河油区断块油藏层段内砂岩厚度小于5m,小层数小于5个;临盘油区断块油藏层段内砂岩厚度小于6m,小层数小于6个.矿场试验证实,该细分注水技术政策界限是合理、实用的,其为胜利断块油藏注上水、注够水、注好水,实现多层断块油藏的高效开发提供了技术保障,对类似油藏细分注水技术界限研究具有一定的借鉴意义.
