Radar Cross Section measurement data is often analyzed using Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar images. Backprojection is the conventional method to create these images but is limited in resolution. This paper builds on developments of ℓ1-minimization and iterative smooth reweighted ℓ1-minimization to get superresolution and adding another processing step with Gaussian smoothing. This step improves
This paper reports and demonstrates a packetponder for access/metro node consolidation and aggregation using common-form-factor pluggables (CFFP), which can simplify edge network architectures.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate whether malnutrition or nutrition impact symptoms (NIS) affect the possibility of returning to work after treatment for head and neck cancer. Methods: Patients of working age with head and neck cancer were followed up from treatment initiation to 3 months (n = 238), 1 year (n = 182), and 2 years (n = 130) after treatment completion. The observed decrease in
Bark beetle infestations pose a significant threat to forest ecosystems, necessitating timely intervention for effective management and conservation. This study focuses on an 8,100 km2 area in southern Sweden, heavily impacted by a bark beetle outbreak triggered by a severe drought in 2018. Using spectral indices derived from Sentinel-2 data, it explores the potential of a window-based approach fo
Generation Z (Gen Z) will soon become the biggest living generation and the most dominant in terms of population and economic power, making them one of the tourism industry’s fastest-growing segments and a crucial market to target. There is growing evidence that Gen Z is concerned about the environmental and social effects of their consumption and is guided by strong ethical and environmental idea
Introduction: Children born preterm are at increased risk for adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. Music and reading activities in childhood could ameliorate these difficulties, as they have shown benefits on both neural and behavioral levels. However, only a few studies have assessed these potential benefits in preterm-born children. We investigated whether music and language activities in early
Objectives: It has been belived that changes in diastolic blood velocities in the fetal ductus venosus were due to increased central venous pressure secondary to increased fetal heart strain during hypoxia or heart failure. There have been recent reports of changes in ductus venosus blood velocity without signs of increased fetal heart strain. The aim of this evaluation was to compare blood veloci
Robotic systems for manipulation tasks are increasingly expected to be easy to configure for new tasks. While in the past, robot programs were often written statically and tuned manually, the current, faster transition times call for robust, modular and interpretable solutions that also allow a robotic system to learn how to perform a task. We propose the method Behavior-based Bayesian Optimizatio
Background and purpose: Although the diagnostic accuracy of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose – positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT) for breast cancer (BC) has been well studied, few studies have evaluated the impact of 18F-FDG-PET/CT on BC patient care. This study aimed to investigate restaging and 18F-FDG-PET/CT-induced changes in clinical decision-making in patients with BC. M
Background: Access to sample-level metadata is important when selecting public metagenomic sequencing datasets for reuse in new biological analyses. The Standards, Precautions, and Advances in Ancient Metagenomics community (SPAAM, https://spaam-community.org) has previously published AncientMetagenomeDir, a collection of curated and standardised sample metadata tables for metagenomic and microbia
Graphical models use graphs to represent conditional independence structure in the distribution of a random vector. In stochastic processes, graphs may represent so-called local independence or conditional Granger causality. Under some regularity conditions, a local independence graph implies a set of independences using a graphical criterion known as δ-separation, or using its generalization, µ-s
INTRODUCTION: Numerous studies have characterised trajectories of asthma and allergy in children using machine learning, but with different techniques and mixed findings. The present work aimed to summarise the evidence and critically appraise the methodology.METHODS: 10 databases were searched. Screening, data extraction and quality assessment were performed in pairs. Trajectory characteristics w

Platinum-tin catalysts have been used industrially for decades, but their structural evolution under reaction conditions and the causes of their improved activity relative to platinum are still not well understood. In this study, we investigate Sn/Pt(111) and Sn/Pt(223) surface alloys during oxygen exposure and catalytic CO oxidation using grazing incidence X-ray absorption spectroscopy (GI-XAS).
Previous research in the Western world shows that men are in general more likely than women to deny human-induced climate change or certain aspects of it. We hypothesize that threatened masculinity contributes to such gender differences in Sweden. Threatened masculinity refers to the perception that a man’s masculinity is being challenged, undermined, or devalued, often due to societal changes tha
Non-invasive evaluation of glymphatic function has emerged as a crucial goal in neuroimaging, and diffusion tensor imaging along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS) has emerged as a candidate method for this purpose. Reduced ALPS index has been suggested to indicate impaired glymphatic function. However, the potential impact of crossing fibres on the ALPS index has not been assessed, which was the a
We present a new carbon isotope chemostratigraphy for the upper Cambrian carbonate succession of the south Anhui Province, South China, based on new δ13Ccarb data and conodont records. Paraconodont assemblages in the lower part and euconodonts in the middle to upper part of the section were obtained from samples from the Qingkeng Formation. The paraconodont occurrences enable us to recognize the r
BACKGROUND: Children often require pain management following surgery to avoid suffering. Effective pain management has consequences for healing time and quality of life. Ibuprofen, a frequently used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) administered to children, is used to treat pain and inflammation in the postoperative period.OBJECTIVES: 1) To assess the efficacy and safety of ibuprofen (
