Noise and variation are the two major challenges for the reliability of digital circuits, especially multiple-valued logic (MVL) circuits where the entire voltage range is divided into some narrow zon…
We develop and evaluate an automated data-driven framework for providing reviewer recommendations for submitted manuscripts. Given inputs comprising a set of manuscripts for review and a listing of a …
Precise surgical excision of brain tumors depends on the surgeon’s ability to accurately differentiate tumors from healthy brain tissues. We have developed an automated system integrated with biochips…
In this paper, we evaluate the performance of equal-gain-combining (EGC) receivers operating in Rayleigh fading channels in terms of the outage probability (OP) and the average symbol error rate (ASER…
Arrhenius equations with Weibull distribution have been broadly deployed to quantify the loss of life and probability of failure of power transformers. This model is highly nonlinear, and this non-lin…
The worldwide spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) led the World Health Organization to characterize the pandemic as a public health emergency of international concer…
Although masks (face coverings) are a prime tool in fighting airborne pathogens, during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States the use of masks encountered resistance based on existing patterns of…
Nowadays, type II diabetes mellitus, more specifically ensuing diabetic nephropathy, and severe COVID-19 disease are known to be closely associated. The exact mechanisms behind this association are le…
Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is a tool now increasingly proposed to monitor the SARS-CoV-2 burden in populations without the need for individual mass testing. It is especially interesting in me…
The purpose of this study was to report the psychometric properties, including validity and reliability, of the decision fatigue scale (DFS). Decision fatigue may impair nurses' ability to make sound …
At the population level, Black and Hispanic adults in the United States have increased risk of dying from COVID-19, yet whether race and ethnicity impact on risk of mortality among those hospitalized …
While social distancing policies protect older adults with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) from exposure to COVID-19, reduced social interaction may also have unintended consequences. To identif…
Face masks are devices worn over the mouth and nose to protect against splashes, infectious respiratory droplets or aerosols generated during breathing or coughing according to their filtering capacit…
Measuring routine childhood vaccination is crucial to inform global vaccine policies and programme implementation, and to track progress towards targets set by the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP) an…
Entry of SARS-CoV-2 into the central nervous system (CNS) activates microglia, triggering chronic neuroinflammation and possibly neurodegeneration. The complex transcriptome of SARS-CoV-2 shares molec…
The World report on vision in 2019 found it difficult to evaluate VISION 2020's impact on childhood blindness and VI since data on prevalence and causes were scarce. Considering the high chance of the…
Mental health is a fundamental human right and is part of the well-being of society. The public health burden of mental health disorders affects people's social and economic status around the world. C…
The coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic has put healthcare workers in an unprecedented situation, increasing their psychological and mental health distress. Much research has focused on the iss…
Background COVID-19 pandemic has a devastating impact on the economies and health care system of sub-Saharan Africa. Healthcare workers (HWs), the main actors of the health system, are at higher-risk …
