Abstract Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) carries a high societal burden inequitably distributed across demographic groups. Using real-world electronic health record (EHR) data with accurate population identificatio...

Abstract Background In Swaziland, as in many high HIV/TB burden settings, there is not information available regarding the household location of TB cases for identifying areas of increased TB incidence, limiting the deve...

Abstract Background Africa is facing a rising prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), driven by shifts in lifestyle and dietary habits. Children with delays in motor coordination are less likely to participate in...

Abstract Simulating the response of granular materials under realistic loading scenarios is essential for ensuring the reliability of geotechnical infrastructure. This task is particularly challenging because natural soi...

Abstract As an integrated application of modern information technologies and artificial intelligence, Prognostic and Health Management (PHM) is important for machine health monitoring. Prediction of tool wear is one of t...

Abstract The pre-training molecular representation learning (MRL) has shown considerable potential in computer-aided drug discovery. Recently, many multimodal pre-training MRL methods have been presented, incorporating m...

Abstract Introduction The policy-making process in health reform is challenging due to the complexity of organizations, overlapping roles, and diversity of responsibilities. The present study aims to investigate and anal...

Abstract Electric cable shovel (ECS) is a complex production equipment, which is widely utilized in open-pit mines. Rational valuations of load is the foundation for the development of intelligent or unmanned ECS, since ...

The estimation and analysis of road traffic represent the preliminary steps towards satisfying the current needs for smooth, safe, and green transportation. Therefore, effective traffic monitoring is an essential topic a...

While physics models for predicting system states can reveal fundamental insights owing to their parsimonious structure, they may not always yield the most accurate predictions, particularly for complex systems. As an al...

Abstract Background Performance-based financing (PBF) has attracted considerable attention in recent years in low and middle-income countries. Afghanistan’s Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) implemented a PBF programme ...

Abstract Background There is a lack of comprehensive national data on prevalence, geographical distribution of different species, and temporal trends in soil-helminthiasis (STHs). Therefore, this study aimed to provide a...

Abstract Background Tuberculosis (TB) remains a petrified condition with a huge economic and health impact on families and health systems in Ghana. Monitoring of TB programme performance indicators can provide reliable d...

Abstract The remaining useful life (RUL) prediction of mechanical products has been widely studied for online system performance reliability, device remanufacturing, and product safety (safety awareness and safety improv...

The power system event detection process must accelerate and become more precise with increasing penetration of renewable energy systems into the grid. The authors discuss a federated learning LSTM (FL-LSTM) that serves ...

Abstract Full matrix focusing method of ultrasonic phased array has been proved with advantages of good signal-to-noise ratio and imaging resolution in the field of Ultrasonic NDT. However, it is still suffering from the...

Abstract Background Tobacco cessation markedly improves cancer treatment outcomes. As part of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Cancer Moonshot, the Cancer Center Cessation Initiative (C3I) funded 52 U.S. National Canc...

Abstract Endurance exercise training is known to reduce risk for a range of complex diseases. However, the molecular basis of this effect has been challenging to study and largely restricted to analyses of either few or ...

Abstract Background Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions, MSK pain and MSK injury/trauma are the largest contributors to the global burden of disability, yet global guidance to arrest the rising disability burden is lacking....

Abstract This study examines the impact of educational awareness, socioeconomic status, and rationalization of action on parental investment in education, with a specific focus on the mediating role of government educati...

Abstract The spherical plain bearing test bench is a necessary detecting equipment in the research process of self-lubricating spherical plain bearings. The varying environmental temperatures cause the thermal deformatio...

Communication is moving from being data-centric to being experience-centric and perception-aware with the advent of 6G wireless networks. Immersive applications such as digital twins, holographic telepresence, extended r...

Abstract Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) have successfully identified genes associated with complex traits and diseases, but most have been performed using bulk gene expression data, which aggregate signals...

In this paper, the signal propagation characteristics of urban environments are predicted by modeling important propagation parameters of the Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) network for macrocells. The MOPEM propaga...
