Massive multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) systems are crucial for enhancing spectral efficiency and link reliability in next-generation wireless communications. However, high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) remains a significant challenge, leading to power inefficiencies and signal distortion. This paper presents a low complexity method for PAPR reduction using hard clipping tailored for f
Background: Infections trigger complex immune responses, with conserved as well as disease-specific characteristics. Methods: Proteomic screening technology and gene expression analysis were used here to define the immune response in infants, with their first episode of febrile urinary tract infection. Urine and peripheral blood samples were obtained at enrollment and at follow-up, after 6 months.
The study of physical systems at the microscopic scale often reveals emergent behaviors driven by thermal fluctuations and interactions. The characterization of such systems permits a deeper understanding of how these driving forces give rise to collective phenomena and functional responses. This thesis investigates two classes of microscopic systems: momentum-conserving active matter, or so-calle
The aim of this workshopreport is to move beyond existing academicdiscussions on environmental politics in North and EastSyria3, and to respond directly to the region’s urgentenvironmental needs and challenges, and to explorepossible pathways for ecological recovery and justice.We seek to critically examine the political, social, andecological dimensions of environmental governancein post-conflict
The dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC) is composed of peripheral and integral membrane proteins at the muscle cell membrane that link the extracellular matrix with the intracellular cytoskeleton. While it is well established that genetic mutations that disrupt the structural integrity of the DGC result in numerous muscular dystrophies, the 3D structure of the complex has remained elusive. Two r
As the total cost of renewable electricity falls lower than the price of fossil fuel, not only can electricity be used to replace fossil fuels using batteries in vehicles but it can also be used to produce fuels. This makes it possible to replace fuels in sectors not easily directly electrified. It also provides new ways of balancing the electricity system. When renewable electricity is cheap a lo
This chapter critically examines a number of ethical dilemmas at stake for professionals working with refugee children and families in Denmark within the field of early childhood education. While national guidelines promote diversity by framing cultural differences as valuable resources, integration policies often result in efforts aimed at assimilation. The chapter explores how everyday ethical j
This article examines, firstly, how legal and safe pathways, in particular resettlement and humanitarian corridors, are regulated in French legislation and how they are implemented in practice, and secondly, the implications of this regulation and implementation for the promise of legal pathways to offer regular entry for asylum purposes. Using a legal and policy approach, our research shows that
Reactions of LXYL17 or LXYL18 (LXYL17 = α,α′-bis[((1-methyl-2-benzimidazolyl)methyl)-N-(6-methyl-2-pyridylmethyl)-amino]-m-xylene; LXYL18 = α,α′-bis[((1-methyl-2-benzimi-dazolyl)-methyl)-N-(2-pyridylethyl)-amino]-m-xylene) with [Cu(MeCN)4](ClO4) in CH2Cl2 at 298 K, subsequent exposure to dioxygen, and work-up from MeCN–MeOH, led to [CuII2(LXYL17)(μ-OMe)2](ClO4)2•0·5H2O (1) and [CuII2(L XYL18)(μ-OM
Introduction: The hepatic cytochrome P450 system includes the polymorphic CYP2D6 gene. CYP2D6 ultra rapid metabolizers (UMs) were 10-fold more common in suicide victims than in the general population in a previous study. The aim of this study was to investigate if the occurrence of the CYP2D6 UM genotype differs between subjects with and without previous suicide attempt in patients treated for dep
In order to understand and manipulate biological function at the molecular level, access to high-resolution structures of biological macromolecules is essential, as structure is intimately linked to function. The two main experimental techniques that can achieve atomic, or near-atomic, resolution are crystallography and electron microscopy. Unfortunately, the experimental data alone is typically n
The complexity of modern healthcare continues to evolve, emphasizing the need for comprehensive collaboration among professionals from diverse backgrounds, patients, and their families to integrate care. Multidisciplinary team meetings (MDTMs) have emerged as an opportunity to advance interprofessional collaborative practice. However, despite their growing prevalence in clinical and educational co
How may changes in musicians’ experience of time influence their impressions of hav- ing conscious intentions during musical activity? In this essay I will present and discuss an autoethnographic account of how an exceptionally heightened awareness of time during musical improvisation may be connected to a heightened awareness of one’s own mental activity, particularly of speedy internal deliberatHow may changes in musicians’ experience of time influence their impressions of having conscious intentions during musical activity?

Speech signal decoding relies on both cognitive performance and the ability to perceive the acoustic signal in sufficient detail. In everyday communication, natural speech is often rapid, spatially and spectrally complex, and accompanied by noise. The brain generates predictions to cope with the complex nature of the auditory signal in speech perception. Anticipatory coarticulation is a natural pa

BACKGROUND: The predictive value of atrial conduction abnormalities, reflected by P-wave indices (PWI), and their association with biomarkers signaling fibrosis for the development of atrial fibrillation (AF) in patients with heart failure (HF) remains underexplored.OBJECTIVE: We aim to investigate the associations between PWI, fibrosis biomarkers, and the risk of incident AF in patients with HF.M
