Characterization of Clinical Phenotype to Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein Concentrations in Alexander Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To determine the concentration of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma in Alexander disease (AxD) and whether GFAP levels are predictive of disease phenotypes. Methods CSF and plasma were collected (longitudinally when available) from AxD participants and non‐AxD controls.

A Novel Successive-Interference-Cancellation- Aware Design for Wireless Networks Using Software-Defined Networking

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2021
In traditional CSMA/CA-based MAC designs supporting successive interference cancellation (SIC), channel utilization is inefficient, because the inherited CSMA/CA-style contention approach often forces the whole channel to remain idle and the early ...

A Q-learning-based distributed queuing Mac protocol for Internet-of-Things networks

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking, 2023
Many previous studies showed that some nodes should be in a sleeping state while the traffic is high. These nodes can wake up periodically to transmit data while they have data to transmit.

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

Leader-Contention-Based User Matching for 802.11 Multiuser MIMO Networks

open access: yes, 2014
In multiuser MIMO (MU-MIMO) LANs, the achievable throughput of a client depends on who are transmitting concurrently with it. Existing MU-MIMO MAC protocols however enable clients to use the traditional 802.11 contention to contend for concurrent ...
