Software engineering always strives to develop and identify software pitfalls and errors before publishing the software product, in testing the software. Bugs can appear during any stage of development or testing, even a...

Dust storms are frequent in many arid and semi-arid regions of the world; they are a significant environmental hazard that impacts human health, agriculture, transportation, and ecosystems, and their frequency and intens...

The software development process is closely related to the creation and evaluation processes. The problem with this software development is that it often lacks testing which leads to software failures. In order To mainta...

Abstract Background Disparities in the utilization of essential medical products are a key factor contributing to inequality in health outcomes. We aimed to analyze the trends and influencing factors in using Coronavirus...

Abstract Background A core tenet of implementation science is early planning for implementation with invested partners. For health systems, aligning workflows and strategies to the local context and ensuring that the int...

Bobbin tool friction stir welding (BT-FSW) is a solid-state joining technique that produces high-strength welds without the need for backing plates. This study introduces a new variant, termed hybrid bobbin tool friction...

Abstract Background In the typical prevention of mother to child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV cascade of care discussion or analysis, the period of analysis begins at the first visit for antenatal care (ANC) for that preg...

ARM-based systems are widely deployed in edge and IoT settings, where penetration-testing tools must operate under strict memory, power, and thermal constraints, yet prior work offers limited deployment-oriented guidance...

Key Points. Approximately half of people on maintenance hemodialysis exhibited impairment on a standardized, performance-based assessment of functional cognition. The functional cognitive test correlated strongly with a ...

Abstract Background Infectious diseases are a leading cause of Paediatric Emergency Department (PED) visits worldwide, characterised by significant clinical variability in both presentation and severity. Literature highl...

IntroductionChronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an inborn error in immunity that results in increased infectious susceptibility to serious infections, often from catalase-positive organisms, due to defects in the NADP...

Objective: The monitoring of immunosuppressive medication adherence is an important issue for solid organ transplant patients. In Turkey, there has been no valid and reliable measurement tool specific to transplantation ...

While stroke awareness tools are available in English and Spanish, none specifically serve the substantial Haitian population in the United States. To fill this gap, the Florida Stroke Registry (FSR) Education Core colla...

Abstract Background The use of parallel dynamic tests to identify insulin dysregulation (ID) and pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) in horses could have better diagnostic utility than measuring baseline hormone...

Abstract Background Dogs with hypoadrenocorticism (HA) have clinical signs and clinicopathologic abnormalities that can be mistaken as other diseases. In dogs with a differential diagnosis of HA, a machine learning model...

Abstract Background The thyrotropin‐releasing hormone (TRH) stimulation test and the 2‐step insulin sensitivity test are commonly used methods to diagnose, respectively, pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID) a...

Abstract Background Non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) is a genetic test to screen fetal chromosomal abnormalities in pregnancy. Public reliance on short-video platforms for health information in China is increasing, y...

Colorimetric assays offer a low-cost, accessible means of diagnostic testing but often suffer from subjective interpretation and variability caused by inconsistent imaging conditions. To address these challenges, we pres...

Background: Conventional HIV testing approaches continue to fall short of overcoming barriers to HIV testing, especially among key and priority populations at higher risk of acquiring and transmitting HIV. Artificial in...

Abstract Background Altered pain processing and central sensitization are key mechanisms underlying migraine. Although quantitative sensory testing (QST) objectively assesses sensory thresholds, its clinical implications...

With the advancement of personalized cancer immunotherapies, new tools are needed to identify tumor antigens and evaluate T-cell responses in model systems, specifically those that exhibit clinically relevant tumor progr...

"In this paper, we analyze the effect of reducing object redundancy in random testing, by comparing the Randoop random testing tool with a version of the tool that disregards tests that only produce objects that have bee...

Background: Early-stage high-grade lung invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) has poor prognosis and is hard to identify using conventional radiological assessment. Current reliance on postoperative histology to identify high-gr...
