The broadcast nature of communication in transmission media has driven the rise of network coding’s popularity in wireless networks.Numerous benefits arise from employing network coding in multi-hop wireless networks, including enhanced throughput, reduced energy consumption, and decreased end-to-end delay.These advantages are a direct outco
Acidic amino acids as counterions of ciprofloxacin: Effect on growth and pigment production in Staphylococcus aureus NCTC 8325 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is emerging as a global threat to public health.One of the strategies employed to combat AMR is the use of adjuvants which act to enhance or reinstate antimicrobial activity by inhibiting resistance mechanisms.However, these adjuvants are themselves not immune to selecting resistant phenotypes.Thus, there is a need to
Electronically Pattern Reconfigurable Antenna for IoT Applications
In this paper, an electronically pattern reconfigurable antenna for Internet of Things (IoT) applications is presented.The antenna consists of 4 wire-patches sharing the same ground plane.This radiating element can switch between four end-fire radiation states in less than 5 us and achieves a 290 MHz frequency bandwidth from 2.25 to 2.54 GHz.The re
Development of a hub-and-spoke durable left ventricular assist device program in Brazil, a middle-income country
Background: In middle-income countries, costs limit widespred use of left ventricular assist device (LVAD) as a strategy for end-stage heart failure.We aim to describe the experience of a LVAD 2006 nissan altima radio program in a middle-income country in a hub-and-spoke model.Methods: Patients fulfilling strict inclusion and exclusion criteria wer
