A Minimalistic Distance-Vector Routing Protocol for LoRa Mesh Networks by Roger Pueyo Centelles, Roc Meseguer, Felix Freitag, Roger Baig Vinas, Leandro Navarro

“…When using the ToA metric, we observed in LoRa mesh networks formed by random topologies and heterogeneous links the positive impact of a more balanced Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR) among the nodes with different network centrality, suggesting hence the multi-SF ToA metric to be used for improved PDR in conditions that are expected to occur in real-world systems. …”

Differences in the pathological, transcriptomic, and prognostic implications of lymphoid structures between primary and metastatic cutaneous melanomas by Jin Xu, Andrew Knight, Jonathan Nguyen, Hong Wang, Walter J Storkus, Cindy Sander, John M Kirkwood, Jiqiang Yao, Xiaofei Song, Jane Messina, James J Mulé, Lilit Karapetyan, Carlos Moran-Segura, Aofei Li, Marion Joy, Sabrina Bruno, Hassan M Abushukair, Danielle Vargas De Stefano, Ayah N Al-Bzour, Caroline Layding

“…The presence of LA was significantly associated with tumor-free regional lymph node status (p=0.002). In multivariable analysis, after adjusting for age, sex, sample type, and stage, the presence of LA was associated with improved patient overall survival (OS) (HR=0.52, 95% CI 0.31 to 0.87, p=0.01).Conclusion Melanoma frequently contains LA, which tends to form in diverse locations in the tumor microenvironment in association with improved overall survival and tumor-free regional lymph node status in patients with primary disease.…”
