Mortality and Associated Factors Among Adult Tetanus Patients Admitted at Public Hospitals in Bahir Dar City, Ethiopia: A Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Tetanus, caused by Clostridium tetani, results in rigor spasms and remains as major cause of mortality in areas with poor vaccination and sanitation. Mortality has been cited to be 20%–55% in Ethiopia, possibly due to variation in healthcare, immunization, and intensive care access.

Optimized magneto-optical isolator designs inspired by seedlayer-free terbium iron garnets with opposite chirality [PDF]
Simulations demonstrate that undoped yttrium iron garnet (YIG) seedlayers cause reduced Faraday rotation in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguides with Ce-doped YIG claddings.

In-vitro evaluation of different antimicrobial combinations with and without colistin against carbapenem-resistant acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]
Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CR-Ab) infections are associated with high morbidity and mortality. The aim of the study was to evaluate the in-vitro activity of different antimicrobial combinations (with and without colistin, COL) against ...

TBCRC 019: A phase II trial of nanoparticle albumin-bound paclitaxel with or without the anti-death receptor 5 monoclonal antibody tigatuzumab in patients with triple negative breast cancer [PDF]
Purpose: Tigatuzumab (TIG), an agonistic anti-DR5 antibody, triggers apoptosis in DR5+ human tumor cells without crosslinking. TIG has strong in vitro/in vivo activity against basal-like breast cancer cells enhanced by chemotherapy agents.

Increase in oxidative stress levels following welding fume inhalation: a controlled human exposure study [PDF]
Tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding represents one of the most widely used metal joining processes in industry. It has been shown to generate a large majority of particles at the nanoscale and to have low mass emission rates when compared to other types of ...

Mechanism of A-TIG and AA-TIG (Advance A-TIG)
Abstract The A-TIG welding technique involving a 2 to 3-fold deeper penetration shape being obtained when welding is performed with coating of activating fluxes, such as oxides, on the weldpool surface before welding, is now acknowledged as an important way of solving some key drawbacks of TIG welding, such as shallow penetration shape and low ...

Analysis of Fiber optic sensor embedding in metals by automatic and manual TIG welding [PDF]
In this paper, the embedding of fiber optic sensors in metals, by using both automatic and manual Tungsten Inert Gas welding (TIG) is discussed for nickel- and copper-coated Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBG) written into an optical fiber, as embedding such ...

This work electrically characterizes sixteen logic gates built from three‐independent‐gate reconfigurable transistors fabricated on full‐scale 300 mm wafers using the industrial 22 nm fully depleted FDSOI process of GlobalFoundries. Static and time‐resolved measurements confirm correct operation, including a 1‐bit adder and reconfigurable AOI/OAI ...
