TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the recent approach of correlation based networks of financial equities and investigate portfolio of stocks at different time horizons, financial indices and volatility time series and show that meaningful economic information can be extracted from noise dressed correlation matrices.
Abstract: We review the recent approach of correlation based networks of financial equities. We investigate portfolio of stocks at different time horizons, financial indices and volatility time series and we show that meaningful economic information can be extracted from noise dressed correlation matrices. We show that the method can be used to falsify widespread market models by directly comparing the topological properties of networks of real and artificial markets.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that the manner in which CMV and the host immune system interact is critical in determining the IRP and hence is predictive of mortality is supported and it is suggested that immunosenescence is contagious.
Abstract: Morbidity and mortality due to infectious disease is greater in the elderly than in the young, at least partly because of age-associated decreased immune competence, which renders individuals more susceptible to pathogens. This susceptibility is particularly evident for novel infectious agents such as in severe acute respiratory syndrome but is also all too apparent for common pathogens such as influenza. Many years ago, it was noted that the elderly possessed oligoclonal expansions of T cells, especially of CD8(+) cells. At the same time, it was established that cytomegalovirus (CMV) seropositivity was associated with many of the same phenotypic and functional alterations to T-cell immunity that were being reported as biomarkers associated with aging. It was discovered that CMV was the prime driving force behind most of the oligoclonal expansions and altered phenotypes and functions of CD8 cells. Independently, longitudinal studies of a free-living population of the very old in Sweden over the past decade have led to the emerging concept of an 'immune risk phenotype' (IRP), predicting mortality, which was itself found to be associated with CMV seropositivity. These findings support our hypothesis that the manner in which CMV and the host immune system interact is critical in determining the IRP and hence is predictive of mortality. In this sense, then, we suggest that immunosenescence is contagious.

TL;DR: This critical review of immobilization procedures of L-proline and L- Proline derivatives highlights their application, recoverability and reusability.
Abstract: In the last eight years, L-proline and L-proline derivatives, such as substituted prolinamides or pyrrolidines, have been successfully used as organocatalysts in several reactions. In this critical review we summarize the immobilization procedures of such organocatalysts highlighting their application, recoverability and reusability (86 references).
