A Dynamic Load Modulation Power Amplifier with Ferroelectric-Based Tunable Matching Network by Pavel Turalchuk, Irina Filipiuk, Bayazet Iskakov

“…Measurement studies of the dynamic load modulation power amplifier have demonstrated an efficiency of at least 50% at 8 dB back-off and more than 60% at peak power at 2.5 GHz. Furthermore, it was found that the modulator output voltage adjustment function on input power of the bias modulator affects the linearity of the output power. …”

Genetic clustering algorithm by M. A. Anfyorov

“…As a result, it has been found that stabilization of splitting into clusters is reached when the number of completed generations of evolution is 200 and more, and the population size is rather small: from 150 chromosomes (in this case no considerable amount of random-access store is required). …”

Strategies for choice of antiretroviral therapy in patients with HIV infection and concomitant cardiovascular disease: A review by Vasily I. Shakhgildyan, Simon T. Matskeplishvili

“…Comorbidity is gradually becoming one of the main drivers for premature mortality in HIV patients: in Russia, from 2007 to 2022, mortality rates in HIV patients not related to opportunistic infections increased more than twofold. People living with HIV have all the common cardiovascular risk factors, moreover, special attention should be paid to kidney function, since its impact on cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk is frequently underestimated. …”

Humidity measurements in carbon dioxide with Sensirion SHT85 humidity sensors under simulated Martian atmospheric conditions by A. Lorek, S. P. Garland

“…However, the SHT75 sensors from Sensirion used at that time are no longer in production and have been replaced by a new generation of sensors: SHT85. The SHT85 sensors are more precise than their predecessors, have a new sensor chip, and feature a PTFE membrane over the humidity-sensitive layer to protect the sensor from dust and liquids. …”

Comunicare la Malattia Renale Cronica by Rosa Maria De Santo

“…Listening them, making time to understand their histories and to learn from their experience is the base on which the carer outlines the trajectory of the disease. Generating and supporting hope is an effective strategy having in mind that, as Thomas Aquinas said in the 13th century, to instill hope there must be, although minimal, possibility of success. …”

Extended Framework for Preventive Maintenance Planning: Risk and Behaviour Analysis of a Proposed Optimization Model by Pablo Viveros, Marco Espinoza, Rodrigo Mena, Fredy Kristjanpoller

“…The proposed optimization model is formulated under a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) paradigm and its objective function seeks to minimize the unavailability of the system associated with the execution times of the activities developed, generating different experimental cases, and varying the start time scheduling under a tolerance factor from 0% up to a maximum of 25% for advance or delay. …”
