The mitochondrial function of peripheral blood cells in cognitive frailty patients by Li Qin, Tingting Huang, Danmei Zhang, Liqin Wei, Guochao Li, Qianqian Zhu, Qiangwei Tong, Guoxian Ding, Juan Liu

“…Logistic regression analysis revealed that increased age (OR 1.156, 95% CI 1.064–1.255), lower educational attainment (OR 0.115, 95% CI 0.024–0.550), malnutrition (OR 0.713, 95% CI 0.522–0.973), and higher depression scores (OR 1.345, 95% CI 1.065–1.699) were significantly associated with CF. The independent t tests and Mann–Whitney U tests showed the CF group exhibited impaired mitochondrial function, characterized by reduced mtDNAcn and respiratory activity, coupled with elevated ROS, interleukin-6, and CPT2 levels compared with the non-CF group. …”

Attempting the Impossible: Enumerating Extremal Submodular Functions for n = 6 by Elod P. Csirmaz, Laszlo Csirmaz

“…We introduce two novel orders, which speed up the computations significantly, and provide additional insight into the highly symmetric structure of submodular functions. We also present an improvement to the combinatorial test used as part of the Double Description method, and use statistical analyses to estimate the degeneracy of the polyhedral cone used to describe these functions. …”
