Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the association of inflammatory and nutritional indices, including HALP (Hemoglobin × Albumin × Lymphocyte / Platelet), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), with cervical intraepithelial...
- AI & ComputingOpen access
Random number generation is usually assured at the source: validate the entropy source, monitor its health, condition its output, and confirm the result passes the standard test batteries. That approach answers the questions it was built for, and deployed generators are better fo...

Real-time instance segmentation and quantification method for concrete dam cracks based on RCIS-YOLO
To address the high complexity of dam crack monitoring workflows involving detection followed by segmentation and the limitations of unmanned aerial vehicle applications, this article first proposes reparameterized crack instance segmentation YOLO (RCIS-YOLO). This model uses YOL...
- Climate & EnvironmentOpen access
Constrained by the dual effects of terrain-induced funneling and continental climate, the outdoor wind environment of residential areas in cold-region valley cities faces an inherent contradiction between winter wind shielding and basic ventilation. Existing studies predominantly...

Dynamic negative symptom networks following personalized iTBS in schizophrenia
Background Negative symptoms are clinically heterogeneous and may be represented as interacting symptom domains. Whether personalized intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) is associated with changes in contemporaneous or temporal associations among negative-symptom domains...

Grid-forming battery energy storage systems (BESSs) can provide fast active-power modulation for oscillation damping, but adaptive action should be limited when modal evidence is weak or the damping-service power reserve is scarce. This paper develops an adaptive power oscillatio...

Internal memory costs following cognitive offloading in younger and older adults
Older adults rely on cognitive offloading to compensate for memory decline. However, research in younger adults has shown that offloading weakens internal memory because individuals disengage from encoding externally saved information. We examined whether similar costs occur in o...
