Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Many patients with urothelial cancer do not benefit from treatment with pembrolizumab, while at risk of severe side effects. Changes in the levels of circulating tumor DNA early during treatment, measured by a simple and affordable assay that can be easily implemented in the clinic, can be used as a prognostic tool to identify these patients.

Estimating the Human Error Probability during Lifeboat Drills
Applied SciencesLifeboats are life-saving equipment used when it is necessary to abandon a ship or, in some ships, for man-overboard situations (to collect persons from water). Every seafarer onboard a ship has a task related to lifeboat operation in an emergency.

Bayesian model for strategic level risk assessment in continuing airthworthiness of air transport [PDF]
, 2010 Continuing airworthiness (CAW) of aircraft is an essential pre-requisite for the safe operation of air transport. Human errors that occur in CAW organizations and processes could undermine the airworthiness and constitute a risk to flight safety.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Unique biological samples, such as site‐specific mutant proteins, are available only in limited quantities. Here, we present a polarization‐resolved transient infrared spectroscopy setup with referencing to improve signal‐to‐noise tailored towards tracing small signals. We provide an overview of characterizing the excitation conditions for polarization‐

A Comparison of Double Convex and Double Concave Improved Nyquist Filters
Advances in Electrical and Computer Engineering, 2010 This paper presents a comparative analysis of two families of improved Nyquist filters with a piece-wise parabolic frequency characteristic. Their construction is based on a novel approach and produces ISI-free pulses that shows comparable or better ISI ...

Rate‐compatible systematic polar codes
IET Communications, 2021 Puncturing and shortening are two common ways to achieve rate‐compatible non‐systematic polar codes (NSPCs). Systematic polar codes (SPCs) have been shown to outperform NSPCs with the same encoding and decoding complexity.

Performance of Multihop Wireless Links over Generalized-K Fading Channels [PDF]
, 2010 The performance of multihop links is studied in this contribution by both analysis and simulations, when communicating over Generalized-K (KG ) fading channels. The performance metrics considered include symbol error rate (SER), outage probability, level

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Evolutionary analysis across 32 placental mammals identified positive selection at residues H148 and W149 in the immune receptor FcγR1. Ancestral reconstruction combined with molecular dynamics simulations reveals how these mutations may influence receptor structure and dynamics, providing insight into the evolution of antibody recognition and immune ...

Probability Inequalities and Errors in Classification
The Annals of Statistics, 1974 Let $X$ and $Y$ be two $p \times 1$ random vectors distributed according to a normal distribution with respective mean vectors $\mu$ and $a\mu$ and covariance matrix $\begin{pmatrix}I_p & \rho I_p \\ \rho I_p & I_p\end{pmatrix}.$ Let $S$ be a random $p \times p$ matrix distributed as the Wishart distribution $W_p(I_p, r)$, independently of $X$ and $Y$.
