Effect of medical mask on voice in patients with dysphonia
Abstract Objective Medical masks have been shown to significantly influence speech communication in healthy people. The effect of mask‐wearing on phonatory capability and daily communication exchanges in patients with voice disorders remains unclear. To evaluate the effect of the medical mask on acoustic parameters in patients with a voice disorder, we

Primary Stability of Dental Implants in Human Jawbones: Experiments & FE Analyses
ABSTRACT Objectives Primary stability (PS) is a key factor for promoting osseointegration and long‐term success of dental implants particularly for immediate loading protocols. Beyond the current assessments of PS, an accurate pre‐operative evaluation of PS would contribute to the improvement of surgical planning and treatment outcome.

Embedding Constructions of Tail-Biting Trellises for Linear Block Codes [PDF]
In this paper, embedding construction of tail-biting trellises for linear block codes is presented. With the new approach of constructing tail-biting trellises, most of the study of tail-biting trellises can be converted into the study of conventional trellises.

Moments of symmetric square L$L$‐functions on GL(3)${\rm GL}(3)$
Abstract We give an asymptotic formula with power saving error term for the twisted first moment of symmetric square L$L$‐functions on GL(3)${\rm GL}(3)$ in the level aspect. As applications, we obtain nonvanishing results as well as lower bounds of the expected order of magnitude for all even moments, supporting the random matrix model for a unitary ...

Elementary quotient completion [PDF]
We extend the notion of exact completion on a weakly lex category to elementary doctrines. We show how any such doctrine admits an elementary quotient completion, which freely adds effective quotients and extensional equality. We note that the elementary quotient completion can be obtained as the composite of two free constructions: one adds effective ...

Abstract We characterize a certain neck‐pinching degeneration of (marked) CP1$\mathbb {C}{\rm P}^1$‐structures on a closed oriented surface S$S$ of genus at least two. In a more general setting, we take a path of CP1$\mathbb {C}{\rm P}^1$‐structures Ct(t⩾0)$C_t \nobreakspace (t \geqslant 0)$ on S$S$ that leaves every compact subset in its deformation ...

Approximate MAP Decoding on Tail-Biting Trellises [PDF]
We propose two approximate algorithms for MAP decoding on tail-biting trellises. The algorithms work on a subset of nodes of the tail-biting trellis, judiciously selected. We report the results of simulations on an AWGN channel using the approximate algorithms on tail-biting trellises for the $(24,12)$ Extended Golay Code and a rate 1/2 convolutional ...

The Mumford conjecture (after Bianchi)
Abstract We give a self‐contained and streamlined rendition of Andrea Bianchi's recent proof of the Mumford conjecture using moduli spaces of branched covers.

Microglia internalize tau monomers and fibrils using distinct receptors but similar mechanisms
Abstract INTRODUCTION Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other tauopathies are characterized by intracellular aggregates of microtubule‐associated protein tau that are actively released and promote proteopathic spread. Microglia engulf pathological proteins, but how they endocytose tau is unknown.

A Comparative Analysis of the Relative Efficacy of Vector-Control Strategies against Dengue Fever [PDF]
The model considers the human population, the adult mosquito population and the population of immature stages, which includes eggs, larvae and pupae. The model also considers the vertical transmission of dengue in the mosquitoes and the seasonal variation in the mosquito population.
