Improving Performance of Integrated Ground-HAPS FSO Communication Links With MIMO Application
In this paper, we investigate the performance of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) free-space optical (FSO) communication systems, encompassing both slant path (downlink and uplink) and horizontal links.

Lessons Learned From a Delayed‐Start Trial of Modafinil for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Freezing of gait (FOG) in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD) is debilitating and has limited treatments. Modafinil modulates beta/gamma band activity in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), like PPN deep brain stimulation. We therefore tested the hypothesis that Modafinil would improve FOG in PwPD.

Extremal values of multiple gamma and sine functions
Barnes's multiple gamma function \(\Gamma_{r}(x)\) is defined by \[ \Gamma_{r}(x)=\exp\Big(\frac{\partial}{\partial s}\zeta_{r}(s,\,x)\Big|_{s=0}\Big) \;\;\;(x>0) \] where \(\zeta_{r}(s,\,x)\) is the multiple Hurwitz zeta function defined as \[ \zeta_{r}(s,\,x)=\sum_{n_{1},\dots,n_{r}=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{(n_{1}+\dots + n_{r}+x)^{s}}\;\;\;\;(\text{Re ...

Immune‐Driven Expression in Inclusion Body Myositis With T‐Cell Large Granular Lymphocytic Leukemia
ABSTRACT Objectives T‐cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia (T‐LGLL), reported in up to 58% of inclusion body myositis (IBM) patients, is a rare leukemia of cytotoxic or less commonly helper T cells. The range of myopathies in T‐LGLL and the impact of coexisting T‐LGLL in IBM are not well understood. Our objectives are to investigate the spectrum of

ABSTRACT Introduction Spinal cord infarction (SCI) is a rare but devastating myelopathy, characterized by a high disability rate and an unfavorable prognosis. It has often been underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed as idiopathic transverse myelitis (ITM). This study aimed to describe the clinical features, radiological biomarkers, treatments, and functional ...

Remote Assessment of Ataxia Severity in SCA3 Across Multiple Centers and Time Points
ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a genetically defined ataxia. The Scale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) is a clinician‐reported outcome that measures ataxia severity at a single time point. In its standard application, SARA fails to capture short‐term fluctuations, limiting its sensitivity in trials.

Objective A leading cause of death among patients with scleroderma (SSc), interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains challenging to prognosticate. The discovery of biomarkers that accurately determine which patients would benefit from close monitoring and aggressive therapy would be an essential clinical tool.

Epsilon tubulin is an essential determinant of microtubule-based structures in male germ cells
Alpha, beta, and gamma tubulins are essential building blocks for all eukaryotic cells. The functions of the non-canonical tubulins, delta, epsilon, and zeta, however, remain poorly understood and their requirement in mammalian development untested ...
