Prevalence of respiratory symptoms and lung function impairments among Darab ginning factory workers by M neghab, M nowroozi sarjoeeye

“…The exposure group were qualified workers of one of Darab ginning factories and referent subjects were selected among clerical staff of Shiraz university of medical science. Data analysis was performed using spss version 19. Results: In this study the prevalence of respiratory symptoms such as: cough, phlegm, wheezing, chest tightness and byssinosis were significantly more common in exposed group than in the referent subjects(p<0.05).Additionally, some parameters of pulmonary function such as: VC, FEV1 and FEV1/FVC% in the exposed group were lower than the control group. …”

Advanced polynomial Y-function method for precise mobility characterization in 2D FETs by Jeongyun Jang, Yeon Jae Lee, Hayoung Roh, Sungho Kim

“…The results revealed that the TG-FET exhibited stronger surface-roughness scattering owing to the intensified transverse electric field from the thinner dielectric layer, leading to pronounced mobility degradation. The polynomial Y-function method successfully isolates key degradation factors, thereby enabling a more comprehensive understanding of the carrier transport mechanisms in 2D FETs. …”
