Consider- ing frequency reuse in the network, we study two power-constraint cases, i.e., per-cell po- wer constraint case and per-tier power con- straint case. We formulate the capacity maxi- mization problem by allowing each subcarrier of Marco eNodeB （MeNB） to be shared by users from multiple Picos. We mathematically demonstrate that the optimal power allocation in the per-cell power constraint case has a re- markably simple nature： each Pico transmits to its user with maximum power, while MeNB either selects only one user to jointly transmit with maximum power or does not transmit to any user. In the per-tier power constraint case, the difference is that the power allocation be- tween two Picos takes the form of water-fill- ing. Numerical results verify that our proposed schemes outperform the conventional interfe- rence coordination schemes.展开更多

Methods and results Between 2007 and 2011 all consecutive patients with diagnosed with iCM at EMB were retrospectively analyzed. The combined primary endpoint （EP） （1E°P） was cardiac death, aborted sudden cardiac death/appropriate implantable cardioverter defibrillator （ICD） shock, progressive heart failure requiring left venWicular assist device （LVAD） implantation and heart transplantation. 503 patients （mean age 58 ° 12 years, 73% male） were available for analysis. Genomes of cardiotrophic viruses were detected in 396 patients （79%） and immuno-histochemical signs of inflammation were present in 223 individuals （44%）. After 3.6 ° 2.4 years of follow-up, cardiac mortality was 3.0% （n = 14） and a total of 8.6% （n = 40） reached the primary endpoint. Independent predictors for the 1 °EP were： age 〉 50 years, presence and duration （〈 28 days） of symptomatic heart failure. A risk stratification approach based on the results of the multivariate analysis demonstrated that absence of signs and/or symptoms of congestive heart failure in younger （〈 50 years） patients with longer （〉 28 days） duration of disease appear to have an excellent prognosis with 100% survival and no events during follow-up The presence of all above mentioned independent risk factors results in an 1°EP occurrence of 35.9%. Conclusions Symptoms of heart fail- ure, short duration of disease, and older age are indicators of poor outcome in patients with iCM.展开更多
