Performance Comparison of Evolutionary Algorithms in the Design of a Hand-Pump Shape Microstrip Antenna for 5G Applications

Elektronika ir Elektrotechnika, 2019
In this work, a single element hand-pump shape microstrip patch antenna working at 3.4 GHz–3.8 GHz for future 5G applications is proposed. The overall dimensions of the proposed antenna are 34 mm × 28 mm × 1.6 mm. In order to obtain the desired bandwidth,

A New Bat-HKU2–like Coronavirus in Swine, China, 2017

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017
We identified from suckling piglets with diarrhea in China a new bat-HKU2–like porcine coronavirus (porcine enteric alphacoronavirus). The GDS04 strain of this coronavirus shares high aa identities (>90%) with the reported bat-HKU2 strains in ...

A Systematic Review of Adverse Childhood Experiences and Epigenetic Age Acceleration in Later Adult Life Measured With Second and Third‐Generation Epigenetic Clocks

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examined the relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) in adulthood as measured by second and third generation epigenetic clocks by performing a systematic review of the literature. The electronic databases MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched on 17 July 2023.

Interferon Regulatory Factor 3-Mediated Signaling Limits Middle-East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) Coronavirus Propagation in Cells from an Insectivorous Bat

Viruses, 2019
Insectivorous bats are speculated to be ancestral hosts of Middle-East respiratory syndrome (MERS) coronavirus (CoV). MERS-CoV causes disease in humans with thirty-five percent fatality, and has evolved proteins that counteract human antiviral responses.

On the Prospects for African Philosophy in Australia

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper grapples with the situation of people of African descent in Australia by working through the constitution of the body of academic philosophy in the country. It contends with the parochialism of the Australian philosophical community and the prospects for the cultivation of greater pluralism. Taking African philosophy as one possible

A decade of curtailment studies demonstrates a consistent and effective strategy to reduce bat fatalities at wind turbines in North America

Ecological Solutions and Evidence
There is a rapid, global push for wind energy installation. However, large numbers of bats are killed by turbines each year, raising concerns about the impacts of wind energy expansion on bat populations.

To Raise or Not to Raise: An Experimental Test of Community Support for Increasing the Minimum Age of Criminal Responsibility in New South Wales, Australia

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While research has identified a disconnect between the minimum age of criminal responsibility (MACR) and public perceptions of criminal culpability among young people, no study has examined how offender characteristics influence support for reform using an experimental design. To address this, this study presents the first experimental test of

Altered Nasal Microbiota in Sinonasal Tumors: A Comparative Analysis of Malignant and Benign Sinonasal Tumors

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although shifts in nasal microbiota have been well‐documented in inflammatory upper airway conditions, microbiota tumor‐associated alterations remain uncharacterized. This study is the first to compare sinonasal microbiota profiles of patients with malignant tumors (MT), benign tumors (BT), and controls, offering insights into tumor‐

Metabolic and biochemical profiling reveals phenotypic heterogeneity in Zucker diabetic fatty rats

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Genetically uniform Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rats spontaneously develop four distinct metabolic phenotypes despite identical housing and diet conditions. Each phenotype exhibits unique biomarker signatures encompassing glucose homeostasis, insulin secretion, polyol pathway activation, oxidative stress, inflammatory cytokines, and neurotrophic ...
