1) A study of over 6,000 COPD patients in Germany found that the most common symptom reported was dyspnea on exertion, and patients with higher COPD Assessment Test (CAT) scores reported more symptoms and comorbidities than those with lower CAT scores.
2) A separate study found that a stable elevated blood eosinophil percentage predicted shorter exacerbation durations in COPD patients treated with oral corticosteroids. Patients with eosinophil percentages over 2% had exacerbations that were on average 2 days shorter.
3) A third study found that one year of treatment with fluticasone propionate/salmeterol increased total bacterial loads in induced sputum samples of COP
This document presents a framework for software timing analysis using UML sequence diagrams. The framework involves first gathering requirements and creating a sequence diagram. The sequence diagram is then converted to a label transition graph. Algorithms are applied to reduce the graph to a path expression and determine the minimum and maximum path lengths, representing the minimum and maximum time taken for the application. A case study applying this process to the timing analysis of a purchasing process in a mall is presented as an example. The advantage of this approach is that timing requirements can be analyzed early in the requirements stage from the UML models.
Este decreto reglamenta la acción de tutela establecida en el Decreto 2591 de 1991. Establece que la acción de tutela solo protege derechos constitucionales fundamentales y no puede usarse para hacer cumplir leyes u otros actos normativos de rango inferior. También define cuándo un perjuicio no se considera irremediable y establece disposiciones sobre notificación de providencias, contenido de fallos de tutela y efectos de decisiones de revisión.
This document summarizes a study that evaluated inflammatory markers in different COPD subgroups compared to smokers and healthy controls. The study found that natural killer cells and CD56-expressing T cells were increased in COPD subjects regardless of rapid or slow lung function decline. These markers did not support the hypothesis that cytotoxic T cells can predict the rate of lung function decline in COPD. However, the increase in NKG2D in rapid decliners indicates these cells may play a role in lung function decline, warranting further research. A second study evaluated relationships between systemic acute-phase reactant biomarkers in COPD and found a pattern of relationships between these markers that differs from healthy smokers and with severity of functional impairment.

It also notes leadership changes and deals involving companies like Turquoise Hill Resources, Erdene Resource Development Corp, and Leighton Holdings. The economic section summarizes data, inflation trends, and mining industry effects. Politics updates include changes to government structure and parliamentary activities.
This report summarizes research on the motion of particles on curves. It was found that:
1) The center of mass of 3 points on an ellipse that divide its perimeter evenly traces out a smaller ellipse of the same shape.
2) The maximum product of distances between 4 particles on a rectangle occurs when particles are at the corners for small rectangles, but 2 particles move off the corners for larger rectangles.
3) The center of mass of n points on a square that divide its perimeter evenly traces out a smaller square n times for odd n, and remains fixed at the center for even n.
