Impact of body mass index as a continuous variable on short‐ and long‐term outcomes in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for colon cancer [PDF]

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery
Background The impact of obesity on colon cancer remains unclear. Very few studies of colon cancer surgery have analyzed body mass index (BMI) as a continuous variable, with no such reports from Japan. This study examined the association between BMI as a

Mapping Guaranteed Positive Secret Key Rates for Continuous Variable Quantum Key Distribution [PDF]

Entropy
The standard way to measure the performance of existing continuous variable quantum key distribution (CVQKD) protocols is by using the achievable secret key rate (SKR) with respect to one parameter while keeping all other parameters constant.
