ABSTRACT Background Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) is a common condition among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) and is the leading cause of iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in this population. Growing evidence suggests that social determinants of health (SDOH) influence menstrual bleeding patterns, access to care, and treatment. However, no studies have

Enhanced bearing RUL prediction based on dynamic temporal attention and mixed MLP
Bearings are critical components in machinery, and accurately predicting their remaining useful life (RUL) is essential for effective predictive maintenance. Traditional RUL prediction methods often rely on manual feature extraction and expert knowledge,

Deterministic Autonomous Systems.
This article argues that autonomy, not problem-solving prowess, is the key property that defines the intuitive notion of "intelligent creature." To build an intelligent artificial entity that will act autonomously, we must first understand the attributes of a system that lead us to call it autonomous.

Nonlinear optimal control for the five-axle and three-steering coupled-vehicle system
Transportation of heavy loads is often performed by multi-axle multi-steered heavy duty vehicles In this article a novel nonlinear optimal control method is applied to the kinematic model of the five-axle and three-steering coupled vehicle system. First,

ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...
