ABSTRACT Flow velocity measurement is fundamental to hydrological and hydraulic studies, providing essential data for streamflow estimation and river dynamics analysis. Traditional in situ methods like propeller gauges and acoustic Doppler current profilers are accurate but intrusive and labour‐intensive, while non‐intrusive image processing methods ...

ABSTRACT Background When planning prostate radiotherapy, full bladder preparation is widely used to displace bowel and bladder from high‐dose regions but is difficult to reproduce and can prolong workflows. Methods Twenty men with localised prostate cancer ± seminal vesicles underwent CT simulation with full and empty bladders.

Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of patient positioning on the volume of organs at risk (OARs) in or near the planning target volume (PTV) and the dose distribution in adjuvant or salvage radiotherapy for prostate cancer after

Lung V5 and the planning target volume/lung volume ratio were identified as independent dosimetric risk factors for clinically significant radiation pneumonitis following moderately hypofractionated radiotherapy for lung cancer. Maintaining V5 < 35% may help mitigate this risk in clinical practice.

Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

DD and PTV as victims of media globalisation [PDF]
ABSTRACTMainstream discourses on the globalisation of media that delineate the emergence of privately owned television channels in the periphery country as evening out metropolitan domination are belied by concrete evidence. This essay argues that the rise of southern players has undermined state broadcasting rather than dismantling ‘media imperialism’.

COVID-19 and influenza vaccination among adults stably engaged in HIV care
Introduction: Vaccination against COVID-19 and influenza is recommended for people living with HIV, but real-world uptake data remain incomplete, especially in populations facing socioeconomic barriers. We assessed uptake and associated factors at an HIV

Abstract Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is commonly used for head‐and‐neck (H&N) delineation in radiotherapy (RT) owing to the lack of contrast in computed tomography (CT) images. MRI‐based dosimetry is not yet fully developed for the H&N area due to the inter‐patient variability and the difficulty of accurately quantifying cortical bone ...
