After outsourcing data to cloud servers, clients lose physical control over the data. To guarantee clients that their data is intact on the server side, some mechanism is needed for clients to periodically check the integrity of their data. Proof of retrievability (PoR) is designed to ensure data integrity. However, most prior PoR schemes focus on static data, and existing dynamic PoR is inefficient. In this paper, we propose a new version of dynamic PoR that is based on a B+ tree and a Merkle hash tree. We propose a novel authenticated data structure, called Cloud Merkle B+ tree (CMBT). By combining CMBT with the BES signature, dynamic operations such as insertion, deletion, and modification are supported. Compared with existing PoR schemes, our scheme improves worst-case overhead from O(n) to O(log n).展开更多

Among 41 tree shrews exposed to AFB1, 17 were experimentally infected by HHBV and 24 were uninfected. After 158 weeks, significant difference of primary liver cancer (PLC) incidence was present between the HHBV infected (52.94%) and uninfected (12.5%) groups (p<0.05). No difference was found between these two groups in the amount of AFB4 ingestion. Moreover, 1/9 of the tree shrews infected only by HHBV but not exposed to AFB4 developed PLC. No PLC was found in 6 tree shrews that had neither been infected with HHBV nor been exposed to AFB4. These results suggest the possible etiologic relationship between HHBV infection and PLC, as well as the synergetic effects of HHBV and AFB4 during PLC development.展开更多

With the rise of data explosion, the demand for high-performance real-time query processing in databasesystems has surged. For instance, Alibaba’s PolarDB and AnalyticDB systems handle massive query volumes and real-timedata processing, highlighting the need for efficient solutions. Traditional approaches leveraging GPUs for B+tree performanceenhancement have yielded positive results but suffer from high energy consumption, making their widespread deploymentin large data centers impractical. This paper introduces GreenB+Tree, an energy-efficient B+tree optimized for the PEZYSC3schip, known for its high energy efficiency and MIMD architecture, which mitigates common GPU memory and warpdivergence issues. GreenB+Tree innovatively transforms the B+tree structure into two one-dimensional arrays, significantlyreducing memory costs and computational overhead. It further incorporates query-agglomerated optimization (QAO) and thepersistent data residency strategy (PDRS) to minimize global memory access and enhance cache efficiency. Experimentalevaluations demonstrate that GreenB+Tree achieves a throughput of 62.6 Million Queries Per Second per Watt (MQPS/W),outperforming contemporary GPU-based solutions by approximately 4.5 times.展开更多

Methods: Patients suffered from chronic hepatitis B were treated with YGAPM. Observe theirshort-- and long--term efficacy and the change of serum hepatitis B virus marker. In experiment, the effects ofYGAPM in treating rat's liver injury as well as HBV--infected tree shrew and duck HBV--infected ducks were observed. Results: In 79 cases of chronic persistent hepatitis, the markedly effective rate was 60. 76%, and further raised to 70. 00 % in follow-up study in 40 cases. In 73 cases of chronic active hepatitis, the markedly effective rate was 60. 27%, and further raised to 62. 50% in 32 follow-up cases. In the treatment group, 85 of the119 cases (71. 43 % ) with HBeAg-positive were converted to negative. Whereas in the control group, only 40 of89 HBeAg-positive cases (44. 94 % ) were converted to negative, P < 0. 01. Results of experimental studyshowed that negative conversion rate of tree shrew infected with HBV marker was raised, while the duck HBVDNA in infected duck blood was inhibited. Those compared with the control group separately, the differencewas markedly significant. Conclusion: YGAPM is an effective drug in treating chronic hepatitis B, and it couldeffectively convert the marker to negative.展开更多
