Our immune system is armed with an array of defenses designed to detect and eliminate harmful threats. One of its most powerful defense mechanisms is the complement system-a group of proteins that ...

Binary decision diagrams (BDDs) are directed acyclic graphs used to represent functions over boolean variables. They have enjoyed widespread success in a number of domains, including hardware ...

The familiar multiplicative congruential generator is examined in the context of the type of two's complement arithmetic used in the IBM 360 series. Different sequences of residues are considered and ...

A complement C4 (also known as a complement component 4, or simply C4) is a test to measure the level of C4 proteins you have in your blood. These proteins play a role in how your immune system ...

Complement component 3, often called C3, is an essential protein of the immune system. This protein plays a vital role in the body’s innate immune system, providing: the first line of defense against ...

Introduction: There is an abundance of crosstalk between innate immunity and coagulation in thrombo-inflammatory diseases such as COVID-19. Several potential procoagulant effects of complement ...
