Evaluation of a Partial Ban on Rx‐Rebates in Germany

Health Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate patients' price sensitivity for prescription (Rx) drugs with regards to patronizing online or brick‐and‐mortar pharmacies. In doing so, we exploit a policy change in Germany that prohibited online pharmacies from granting rebates to one part of the population, the members of the statutory health insurance scheme.

Does induction or augmentation of labor increase the risk of postpartum hemorrhage in pregnant women with anemia? A multicenter prospective cohort study in India

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 299-309, April 2025.
Abstract Objective To investigate whether induction/augmentation of labor in pregnant women with anemia increases the risk of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and whether this risk varied by indications for labor induction/augmentation and by anemia severity in pregnancy.

CONSTRUCTION OF REGULAR LDPC LIKE CODES BASED ON FULL RANK CODES AND THEIR ITERATIVE DECODING USING A PARITY CHECK TREE [PDF]

ICTACT Journal on Communication Technology, 2011
Low density parity check (LDPC) codes are capacity-approaching codes, which means that practical constructions exist that allow the noise threshold to be set very close to the theoretical Shannon limit for a memory less channel.

A construction of the high-rate regular quasi-cyclic LDPC codes

EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking, 2019
In this paper, a scheme to construct the high-rate regular quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check (QC-LDPC) codes is developed based on the finite geometry low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes.

Trends in the incidence of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children and early risk factors

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Few studies have used nationwide registry data from both primary and secondary healthcare services to examine the incidence of attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in children while accounting for early risk factors. We aimed to investigate trends in ADHD diagnoses and associated risk factors.

High Efficiency NIR Luminescence Beyond 900 nm Through Promoting Cr3+ Pair Generation in Sr3Zr2O7 Layered Perovskite

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
A Cr3+/La3+ codoped Sr3Zr2O7 NIR phosphor showing luminescence at ∼960 nm with high IQE/EQE (92.4%/57.5%) and good thermal stability was developed. La3+ stabilizes Cr3+ and induces Cr3+ pairs, enabling efficient blue‐to‐NIR conversion for underwater wireless optical communication.

From snapshots to continuous estimates: Augmenting citizen science with computer vision for fish monitoring

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study presents an end‐to‐end computer‐vision pipeline for monitoring fish migration using underwater video. We integrate field camera deployment, annotation, model training and automated in‐season counting to generate continuous, high‐resolution data on river herring spawning migration.

CLEAR Interference Cancellation in a Wideband Dual‐Channel Receiver for Independent Satellite Multi‐Connectivity Links

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, the correlation learning estimation and adaptive reduction (CLEAR) of interference, an adaptive, blind and transparent interference compensation method applied in a wideband dual‐channel receiver, is studied for a pair of independent satellite multi‐connectivity links, using the same carrier frequency and signal bandwidth in use
