Prevalence of obesityand proteinuria with associated factors among diabetic patients attending Kumasi South Hospital, Ghana

Diabetes mellitus is frequently accompanied by obesity, hypertension, and renal complications that increase morbidity and mortality. Evidence on factors associated with proteinuria among people with diabetes in Ghana remains limited. This study determined the prevalence of obesit...

Integrating statistical parametric mapping, functional principal component analysis, explainable machine learning, and equivalence testing for multimodal gait signal analysis

Gait speed is a key clinical indicator in neurological and orthopaedic conditions, yet waveform-level adaptations in ground reaction forces (GRF) and multi-muscle electromyography (EMG) remain poorly characterised. Existing approaches often analyse discrete outcomes or individual...

A systematic review of agricultural ash supplementary cementitious materials as low-carbon alternatives to ordinary Portland cement from 2005 to 2025

The cement industry contributes almost 8% of global CO₂ emissions, creating an urgent need to develop scalable low-carbon substitutes for ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) based on agricultural ashes have emerged as potential candidates,...

Hybrid CD‐MMSE Two‐Timescale Channel Estimation for RIS‐Assisted 6G Systems

ABSTRACT Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) represent a transformative technology for enhancing coverage and energy efficiency in sixth‐generation (6G) wireless networks. However, the substantial pilot overhead required to estimate cascaded channels remains a critical bott...
