Optimizing hospital length of stay and bed allocation using a fuzzy stochastic transportation problem framework with lomax distribution, by Dr.D. Kalpanapriya, Pullooru Bhavana

“…Additionally, the integration of fuzzy and stochastic elements led to a 20 . reduction in bed allocation mismatches, optimizing resource utilization across hospital departments. • Novel Integration of Lomax Distribution in FSTPWLD: Utilizes the Lomax distribution to model heavy-tailed LOS data, capturing inherent uncertainty and variability in hospital discharge times. • Optimized Decision-Making for Healthcare Management: Employs probabilistic constraints and fuzzy stochastic models to balance operational costs and patient care quality, improving resource allocation. • Validated through Simulations and Practical Scenarios: Numerical experiments highlight the model's effectiveness in reducing bottlenecks and enhancing hospital administration efficiency.…”

Deterministic Calculation Method for Continuous-energy Neutron Transport Equation in No-resonance Energy-range by LIU Haopo, LI Yunzhao, WU Hongchun, CAO Liangzhi

“…In order to eliminate the multi-group approximation in the deterministic method, a method for calculating neutron transport equation in the non-resonant energy region based on function expansion was proposed. Initially, the non-resonant energy region was subdivided into segments, and within each segment, orthogonal polynomials serve as base functions for expanding the neutron flux density, which realized the processing of single energy independent variable in the neutron flight and absorption process, as well as the handling of double energy independent variable in the neutron scattering process. …”

Different whole body HIIT protocols do not promote different muscle thickness and functional adaptations among healthy physically active subjects by Alexandre L. Evangelista, Júlio B. B. de Camargo, Roberta L. Rica, Luiz Carlos Carnevali Júnior, Gregg S. Mallett, Valentina Bullo, Marco Bergamin, Stefano Gobbo, Danilo S. Bocalini

“…Morphological (ultrasound-derived muscle thickness of the vastus lateralis [MTVL]) and general fitness (muscle endurance and maximal oxygen consumption) assessments were performed at pre- and post-intervention moments.ResultsBoth training protocols elicited significant improvements in all dependent variables (p &lt; 0.05), with no significant between-group differences.ConclusionRegardless of the training configuration, both WB-HIIT programs serve as time-efficient strategies to induce changes in muscle thickness of the vastus lateralis and functional adaptations in healthy, physically active young individuals.…”

The association between TNF-receptors (TNFR1 and TNFR2) and mortality as well as kidney function decline in patients with chronic kidney disease by Per Wändell, Tobias Feldreich, Anders Larsson, Philip A. Kalra, Johan Ärnlöv, Toralph Ruge, Axel C. Carlsson

“…Differences in eGFR decline in relation to plasma TNFR1 and TNFR2 were estimated by both linear and logistic regression models, with regression coefficients and odds ratios (ORs). Results: Univariate models showed significant associations between TNFR1 (n = 985) and TNFR2 (n = 988) and all-cause mortality based on 7424 person-years at risk, but in the fully adjusted models with continuous variables significant only for TNFR2 HR 1.17 (1.03–1.34), but with a borderline value for TNFR1 HR 1.15 (1.00–1.31). …”
