QuantiFERON-TB Gold PLUS versus QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube test for diagnosing tuberculosis infection [PDF]

The Korean Journal of Internal Medicine, 2020
Background/Aims QuantiFERON-TB Gold PLUS (QFT-PLUS) was developed as a new version of the interferon-γ (IFN-γ) release assay that contains an extra antigen tube to elicit a CD8+ T-cell response in addition to a CD4+ T-cell response.

On the Meaning of Localization in Non‐Local Quantum Field Theory

Annalen der Physik, Volume 538, Issue 6, June 2026.
In non‐local quantum field theory nature does not necessarily allow objects or events to be localized to exact mathematical points. Instead any physical measurement has a built‐in finite resolution set by the non‐locality scale. Spacetime remains continuous and Lorentz‐covariant, but below this scale pointlike localization becomes an idealization ...

How important is iϵ in QFT? [PDF]

International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2015
We discuss the role of iϵ in quantum field theories and suggest that it can be identified with the dimensional regularization parameter iϵ = 4-d thus clarifying and simplifying issues related to the infrared divergences without altering any of the present knowledge in QFT. We further present the relevance of this assumption for the optical theorem.

Work Versus Force: Simultaneous Processes for Describing Interactions

Advanced Physics Research, Volume 5, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Achieving a unified description of interactions remains an open challenge in theoretical physics, which currently describes four fundamental forces. This situation may be viewed differently when interactions are formulated in terms of processes (work as actio) rather than forces (force as actio), not only at the macroscopic level but also at ...

Differences in Clinical Manifestations according to the Positivity of Interferon-γ Assay in Patients with Intestinal Tuberculosis

Gut and Liver, 2016
Intestinal tuberculosis (ITB) remains prevalent in Asia. An interferon-γ assay (QuantiFERON-TB gold test [QFT]) is considered to be an effective supplementary tool for diagnosing ITB.

Reducing CNOT count in quantum Fourier transform for the linear nearest-neighbor architecture

Scientific Reports, 2023
Physical limitations of quantum hardware often necessitate nearest-neighbor (NN) architecture. When synthesizing quantum circuits using the basic gate library, which consists of CNOT and single-qubit gates, CNOT gates are required to convert a quantum ...

A Structure‐Based Benchmarking Suite for Quantum Learning

Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience, Volume 38, Issue 10, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The application of quantum computing to Data Processing has naturally extended into the realm of quantum machine learning. However, while numerous benchmarks exist for evaluating quantum hardware, there remains a scarcity of tailored benchmarks that assess the intrinsic performance of learning models.
