Abstract The rapid growth of distributed energy resources (DERs) is reshaping the operational landscape of transmission and distribution networks, creating new challenges for maintaining system‐wide security, economic ...

Abstract A novel multifunctional bi-anisotropic omega metasurface (MS) that simultaneously supports polarization transformation in both reflection and transmission modes, as well as narrow bandpass transmission functiona...

ObjectiveThis study seeks to trace the source of HIV infection in a male adolescent (P1) with a newly recognized heterosexual orientation in Zhejiang Province on August 23, 2019.MethodsAn in-depth epidemiological intervi...

Federated learning (FL) in mobile edge computing (MEC) operates over wireless links with time-varying bandwidth, latency, and packet loss, which makes conventional full-model synchronization inefficient and vulnerable to...

Under adverse weather conditions, ice accumulation and strong winds cause low-frequency and high-amplitude swaying of transmission lines, increasing the risk of wire fatigue, hardware damage, and tower collapse, posing a...

In the present study, the transmission error (TE) behaviour of an identical involute spur gear pair dynamically coupled with an attached subsystem is investigated through numerical modelling. The surrounding mechanical s...

Abstract Background Anthropogenic pressures, including urbanisation, globalisation and climate change, have facilitated an increased risk for emergence or re-emergence of mosquito-borne diseases into regions such as the ...

Background: Despite significant progress in South Africa in reducing mother-to-child transmission of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, challenges remain. This is evident by the incidence and prevalence of HI...

Abstract Background The seed microbiome plays a key role in the assembly of the plant microbiome, which has major impacts on plant health. Nonetheless, little is known about the origin of the seed microbiome. We investig...

Abstract Background Social mixing studies provide crucial evidence for parameterizing mathematical models of infectious disease transmission, and their validity for use in models is dependent on their study design and ho...

Abstract With the evolution of interactive art installations towards 4 K/8 K ultra-high-definition streaming and large-scale multi-point interaction, existing 5G networks face challenges in maintaining the "flow state"...

The detection of transmission towers in remote sensing images presents significant challenges due to insufficient feature representation and significant object size variations, particularly at low spatial resolutions whe...

Abstract A compartmental mathematical model was developed to examine the transmission dynamics of chikungunya, integrating media awareness and optimal control strategies. Both asymptomatic and symptomatic infectious cate...

Abstract Background Malaria continues to pose a major public health challenge in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where more than 95% of global cases and deaths occur. Despite WHO Global Technical Strategy for Malaria (GTS) tar...

Abstract Background Borrelia burgdorferi and Anaplasma phagocytophilum are transmitted by Ixodes spp., with antibodies having been detected in cats in endemic areas. The combination of selamectin plus sarolaner (Revoluti...

Abstract Background Recent reports documented catastrophic sensitivity failures (18%) of Abbott-Bioline™ Malaria Ag Pf/Pv rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) at the Thailand-Myanmar border, prompting WHO to issue an informat...

Abstract Background Staphylococcus aureus is the most commonly isolated bacterial species from ovine mastitis. Previous studies have mainly focused on dairy sheep, whereas knowledge about S. aureus in sheep kept for mutt...

The World Health Organization has identified ST23 carbapenem-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (CR-hvKP) as a critical public health threat. Through China’s national surveillance system (BRICS), we identifi...

Abstract Background Tuberculosis (TB) remains a critical global public health issue, particularly in rapidly urbanizing regions where population density and migration facilitate transmission. While whole-genome sequencin...

Abstract The ongoing outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAIV) subtype H5N1 in the U.S. poses a significant public health threat. To date, 70 human cases have been confirmed in the United States, includ...

Abstract Introduction Valacyclovir is the only treatment option during pregnancy which has been demonstrated to be effective within a randomized clinical trial for prevention of transplacental cytomegalovirus (CMV) tran...

Abstract To develop effective HIV prevention strategies to guide public health policy the main sources of infection in HIV prevention studies must be identified. Accordingly, we devised a statistical approach that estima...

This paper proposes a dual-spectrum communication strategy for Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) scenarios that integrates visible light communication (VLC) and ultraviolet communication (UVC). In the proposed approac...

Global food security relies heavily on rice production, which is continuously threatened by crop diseases. Although deep learning (DL) models have demonstrated strong diagnostic performance, their high computational and ...
