Health‐Related Quality of Life in Rare Forms of Childhood‐Onset Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We assessed health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) in 80 children with rare hereditary spastic paraplegias using the Caregiver Priorities and Child Health Index of Life with Disabilities and clinician‐reported outcomes. HRQoL was consistently reduced, particularly in relation to motor, autonomic, and bulbar symptoms.

Plasma‐Treated Hydrogel for Combined RONS and Chemotherapy Delivery: A Proof‐of‐Concept In Ovo

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores plasma‐treated hydrogels (PTH) as a new way to deliver both reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and chemotherapy (Doxorubicin) directly to tumors. In ovo tests show effects after a single dose, especially in osteosarcoma tumors. Tumor weight decrease, and a resistance‐related protein is reduced.

Secure routing for mobile ad hoc networks [PDF]

IEEE Communications Surveys & Tutorials, 2005
In this paper we present a survey of secure ad hoc routing protocols for mobile wireless networks. A mobile ad hoc network is a collection of nodes that is connected through a wireless medium forming rapidly changing topologies. The widely accepted existing routing protocols designed to accommodate the needs of such self-organized networks do not ...

Calcium Imparts Advanced Functionalities to Silk Hydrogels for Biofabrication and Biomedical Innovation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The addition of calcium ions to silk fibroin enhances the hydrogel properties and, when combined with visible light crosslinking, enables compatibility with advanced light‐based fabrication techniques. Calcium ions extend the shelf‐life of silk and facilitate the fabrication of multizonal, multilayered constructs for advanced stimuli‐responsive ...

Spontaneous Ad Hoc Mobile Cloud Computing Network

The Scientific World Journal, 2014
Cloud computing helps users and companies to share computing resources instead of having local servers or personal devices to handle the applications. Smart devices are becoming one of the main information processing devices. Their computing features are

TCP Performance in Ad Hoc Networks [PDF]

, 2000
Ad hoc networks are mobile wireless networks which do not have any kind of fixed infrastructure. The routing layer in an ad hoc network ties the network together into a seamless entity and provide transparent services to higher layer protocols.

A Secure Architecture for Mobile Ad Hoc Networks [PDF]

, 2006
In this paper, we propose a new architecture based on an efficient trust model and clustering algorithm in order to distribute a certification authority (CA) for ensuring the distribution of certificates in each cluster. We use the combination of fully self-organized security for trust model like PGP adapted to ad-hoc technology and the clustering ...
