Abstract
This article introduces the development of a Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) antenna array specifically designed for 5G millimeter-wave (mm-wave) communication systems. The suggested MIMO configuration consists of four antenna arrays, each comprising two elements arranged evenly, operating at 26 GHz and 37 GHz with a physical size of 43 mm × 32.5 mm × 0.8 mm using a Rogers RT/Duroid 5880 substrate. The proposed MIMO configuration provides dual bands, with frequency bands extending from 23.8 to 30 GHz (IBW = 6.2 GHz) and 32.5 to 41 GHz (IBW = 8.5 GHz), accompanied by high gains of around 18.5 dB for the first band and 16.4 dB for the second band. The designed antenna also shows broad circular polarization with 3 dB Axial Ratio Bandwidth (ARBW) of 4.75 GHz, ranging from 25.05 to 29.8 GHz. A physical prototype has been fabricated for the proposed 4 port MIMO antenna array and tested to verify the results acquired from simulations. The comparison between simulation and measurement results in terms impedance and radiation parameters such as S-parameters, isolation, gain, axial ratio (AR), efficiency, radiation patterns, and various necessary MIMO metrics demonstrates a strong alignment. This antenna covers various 5G New Radio (NR) application bands such as 28 GHz n257 (26.50–29.50 GHz), 26 GHz n258 (24.25–27.50 GHz), 28 GHz n260 (37–40 GHz) and 28 GHz n261 (27.50–28.35 GHz) utilized across different countries including Canada, Australia, China, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, South Korea, United Kingdom, and United States of America.
Percolation of conditional dependency clusters based on edge-coupled interdependent networks
Authors: Gao Yanli , Yu Haibo , Liu Jun , Zhou Jie 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Considering the existence of multiple edge dependencies in realistic interdependent networks, we propose a model of edge-coupled interdependent networks with conditional dependency clusters (EINCDCs). In this model, the edges in network A depend on the edges in dependency clusters of size m in network B. If the failure rate of edges within the dependency clusters in network B exceeds the failure tolerance α, the corresponding edges in network A that depend on those clusters in network B will fail accordingly. By adopting the self-consistent probabilities approach, a theoretical analytical framework is established to quantitatively address this model. Specifically, we study the robustness of the system verified with numerical simulations in the effect of the cluster size and failure tolerance under random attacks on systems composed of two networks A and B constructed with Random Regular (RR), Erdös-Rényi (ER) and Scale Free (SF) models. Our results show that both networks A and B undergo a first-order or hybrid phase transition when the dependency cluster size does not exceed 2. However, when the cluster size of dependency clusters exceeds 2, a non-monotonic behavior is observed. In particular, when the failure tolerance is in the range from 0 to 0.5, the robustness of the system weakens with the growing in the number of dependency clusters of size 2. While, this tendency reverses when the failure tolerance is in the range from 0.5 to 1. Moreover, we observe that due to the asymmetric interdependency between the two networks, network B always undergoes first-order phase transition, whereas network A could exhibit different types of phase transitions, which depends on the size of dependency clusters. In addition, the failure tolerance may have opposite effects on the two networks with the growing of dependency cluster sizes. The conclusions of the study may provide useful implications and enrich the understanding in the robustness of edge-coupled interdependent networks.
Exploring chaotic behavior of optical solitons in complex structured Conformable Perturbed Radhakrishnan-Kundu-Lakshmanan Model
Authors: Ali Rashid , Alam Mohammad Mahtab , Barak Shoaib 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
In this research, we aim to construct and examine optical soliton solutions for the complex structured Conformable Perturbed Radhakrishnan-Kundu-Lakshmanan Model (CPRKLM) using the Generalized-Kudryashov-Auxiliry Jacobian Method (GKAJM). The current study is notable for its thorough examination and for shedding insight on the chaotic behavior of families of localized optical soliton. Through the creation of 3D and contour visualizations that effectively capture the chaotic behaviors shown by these solitons, we are able to demonstrate that the optical solitons exhibit two distinct forms of perturbations: axial and periodic. Our research stimulates improvements in data processing tools and optical equipment, with consequences for communication networks and nonlinear fiber optics. Through a deeper understanding of optical solitons and their applications, this work also makes a substantial contribution to the discipline of nonlinear optics.
Performance enhancement of silicon photodiodes through the integration of green synthesized reduced graphene oxide variants

Published: July 2024

Abstract
This study examines the potential of enhancing the optoelectronic properties of silicon photodiodes by producing and analyzing heterostructures that incorporate reduced graphene oxide (rGO) synthesized with silicon using different reduction methods. Graphene oxide (GO) was manufactured utilizing an enhanced Hummers’ method. Subsequently, reduced graphene oxides (rGOs) were made by chemical and thermal reduction processes, which are considered ecologically friendly. The use of ascorbic acid to produce ascorbic acid-reduced graphene oxide (ArGO) and thermal processing to produce thermally reduced graphene oxide (TrGO) have significantly contributed to the development of high-performance photodiode technology. The electrical properties were carefully assessed under different levels of light, revealing the substantial impact of integrating reduced graphene oxides (rGOs) on the performance of the diodes. Comparing ArGO/Si, TrGO/Si, and GO/Si heterostructures shows that customized rGO has the potential to greatly influence the responsivity and efficiency of Si-based optoelectronic devices, making a significant contribution to photodiode technology.
Faith and God
Authors: Trigg Roger 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Many in the 20th century assumed that science determines truth, and this suggests that any non-material, transcendent reality could be discounted. Modern physics relies on very abstract theories and entities. Even so many have found problematic any faith in the transcendent, particularly if religious. They have interpreted religion in more pragmatic ways. Faith, as in fideism, is sometimes detached from rational justification. There is greater stress on the inwardness of faith and its meaning for the believer. Even so, a tenet of much religion is that human reason is God-given, and can give us illumination.
Faith and science
Authors: Trigg Roger 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Some see reason, progress, and science as welded together. Science, with its agreed methods, appears to set a standard for rationality, but itself needs a rational basis. Claims to scientific knowledge are themselves fallible and provisional. Some recent views of science even query the right of science to claim any universal applicability. Post-modernist views attack an Enlightenment view of any universal rationality, and science itself becomes a product of faith. That, though, itself needs rational justification so as not to appeal merely to contemporary fashions. Science is no more self-authenticating than religious faith but itself involves trust in reason and appeals to truth.
Introduction
Authors: Burton Antoinette 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Gender history has been a well-established scholarly field since at least the 1980s, and it represents one of the most important developments in historical thinking since World War II. As such, it has a history. Contrary to many people’s expectations, however, it is neither an improvement on women’s history not a steppingstone to queer and trans histories. This chapter argues that as a professional practice, gender history is embedded in the very imperial and global histories from which it emerged in the late twentieth century. Scholars in the field have grappled with its relation to class and race, to colonialism and its histories, and to the legacy of the gender binary in popular culture and everyday life.
Before the modern, beyond the Americas
Authors: Burton Antoinette 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
Gender history emerged as a professional practice and a subfield of the discipline in the Western academy during an extended moment of global conflict and change. This chapter takes up the presumption that the modern Western past is the universal site of gendered histories through examples of scholarship which grapple with that legacy and seek to make visible how gender works as a historical phenomenon before the modern era and beyond the United States or Europe. The binary logics of gender as masculine-feminine do not necessarily hold up in these times and places, raising questions about the colonizing work of gender itself in some historiographical traditions.
Queering the subject
Authors: Burton Antoinette 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
This chapter continues to challenge the notion that gender history is part of a progressive Western narrative by placing the emergence of queer and trans histories alongside rather than following on from its work. It examines the trajectory of the field, a terrain upon which debates over the limits and possibilities of gender itself have been continually worked out—with profound implications for the discipline of history itself. It also shows how the “gender trouble” at the heart of these methods has been shaped by both intersectionality and the work of scholars who research histories beyond the West. It surveys important titles and trends in the fields of queer and trans histories as well as the ongoing echoes of debates original to the field broadly conceived.

Abstract
The United States (US) has witnessed a notable increase in socioeconomic disparities in all-cause mortality since 2000. While this period is marked by significant macroeconomic and health policy changes, the specific drivers of these mortality trends remain poorly understood. In this study, we assessed healthcare access variables and their association with socioeconomic status (SES)-related differences (exposure) in US all-cause mortality (outcome) since 2000. Our research drew upon cross-sectional data from the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS, 2000-2018), linked to death records from the National Death Index (NDI, 2000-2019; n = 486 257). The findings reveal that the odds of a lack of health insurance and unaffordability of needed medical care were over 2-fold higher among individuals with lower education compared to those with high education, following differential time trends. Moreover, elevated mortality risk was associated with lower education (up to 77%), uninsurance (17%), unaffordability (43%), and delayed care (12%). Uninsurance and unaffordability accounted for 4%-6% of the disparities in time to mortality between low- and high-education groups. These findings were corroborated by income-based sensitivity analyses, emphasizing that inadequate healthcare access partially contributed to socioeconomic disparities in mortality. Effective policies promoting equitable healthcare access are imperative to mitigate socioeconomic disparities in mortality.

Published: July 2024

Abstract
We conducted retrospective public health surveillance using data from 2006 to 2016 in 7 integrated delivery systems from the US Food and Drug Administration’s Sentinel System. We identified pediatric hypertensive patients by clinical and claims-based definitions and compared demographics, baseline profiles, and follow-up time profiles. Among 3 757 803 pediatric patients aged 3 to 17 years, we identified 781 722 children and 551 246 teens with at least 3 blood pressure measurements over 36 months. Of these, 70 315 children (9%) and 47 928 teens (8.7%) met the clinical definition for hypertension, and 22 465 (2.8%) children and 60 952 (11%) of teens met the clinical definition for elevated, nonhypertensive blood pressure. Of the 3.7 million patients, we identified 3246 children and 7293 teens with any claim for hypertension (claims definition). Evidence of hypertension claims among those meeting our clinical definition was poor; 2.2% and 7.3% of clinically hypertensive children and teens had corresponding claims for hypertension. Baseline profiles for patients with claims-based hypertension suggest greater severity of disease compared with clinical patients. Claims-based patients had higher rates of all-cause mortality during follow-up. Pediatric hypertension in claims-based data sources is under-captured but may serve as a marker for greater disease severity. Investigators should understand coding practices when selecting real-world data sources for pediatric hypertension work.

Published: July 2024

Abstract
Uterine fibroids and endometriosis may be associated with an increased risk of ovarian cancer. Less is known about the role of hysterectomy in these associations. We estimated the independent and joint associations of hysterectomy, fibroids, and endometriosis with ovarian cancer incidence in the prospective Sister Study cohort (2003-2009). We used time-varying Cox proportional hazards models to estimate covariate-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). By the end of follow-up, 34% of 40 928 eligible participants had fibroids, 13% had endometriosis, and 7% had both. A total of 274 women developed ovarian cancer during follow-up (median = 12.3 years). In mutually adjusted models, fibroids (HR, 1.65; 95% CI, 1.28-2.12) and possibly endometriosis (HR, 1.16; 95% CI, 0.82-1.63) were positively associated with ovarian cancer. Hysterectomies (20% of participants) were also positively associated with ovarian cancer (HR, 1.29; 95% CI, 0.95-1.74). There was some evidence that hysterectomies may mitigate ovarian cancer risk among women with fibroids (HR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.56-1.24) but not among women with endometriosis (HR, 1.20; 95% CI, 0.65-2.22). Identifying these joint associations adds to our understanding of ovarian cancer etiology and may help inform decisions about how women with fibroids, endometriosis, and hysterectomies are treated and surveilled for ovarian cancer.

Published: July 2024

Abstract

Purpose
Our cardiology pharmacy team recently expanded services to the cardiac catheterization laboratory (CCL) with the addition of a dedicated pharmacist; since that time, numerous process improvement initiatives have been implemented and medication review has been expanded.

Methods
We conducted a single-center retrospective chart review. The primary outcome was the percentage of patients discharged from the CCL on appropriate guideline-directed medical therapy components after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) before and after integration of dedicated pharmacist services in the CCL. Secondary outcomes were assessed for all patients discharged from the CCL after implementation of a pharmacy presence and included the total number of pharmacist interventions at discharge, the number of prescriptions directed to our outpatient pharmacy, the number of medication reconciliations performed, the number of “protect your stent” educational sessions completed, and the number of clinically significant pharmacist interventions to the medication regimens of patients who underwent PCI.

Results
After a dedicated pharmacist was integrated to review CCL discharges, significantly more patients were discharged on high-intensity statin therapy (47.9% vs 78.0%; P &lt; 0.0001) and fewer patients were discharged on omeprazole or esomeprazole prescribed concurrently with clopidogrel (18.7% vs 3.9%; P &lt; 0.0001) following PCI. Of the patients who underwent PCI after addition of the pharmacist (n = 259), 23.9% (n = 66) had a clinically significant pharmacist intervention at discharge and 96.5% (n = 250) received protect your stent education. Of all discharges following pharmacist integration (n = 3,501), 13.6% (n = 477) had at least one pharmacist intervention, 771 prescriptions were sent to our outpatient pharmacy, and 66.4% (n = 2,325) of patients had a medication reconciliation completed.

Conclusion
Addition of a dedicated pharmacist to the CCL was associated with increased rates of high-intensity statin prescribing and decreased use of esomeprazole and omeprazole with clopidogrel.
Strategic use of salvage long-acting antiretrovirals in the setting of resistance
Authors: Kilcrease Christin , Agwu Allison , Weld Ethel D 
Published: July 2024

Abstract

Purpose
Long-acting cabotegravir/rilpivirine (LA-CAB/RPV) was approved for use in virally suppressed patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in January 2021. While this was a paradigm shift for many patients living with HIV, as LA-CAB/RPV was the first injectable complete regimen for the treatment of HIV, several patient populations, including those lacking virologic suppression, have not been able to easily access this advance in science and care.

Summary
In this article, we provide an update on 2 patients from our previous report and describe one further patient who experienced treatment failure following initiation of LA-CAB/RPV. Additionally, we review reports published to date of the clinical outcomes of patients with viremia who have accessed LA-CAB/RPV in the setting of baseline resistance-associated mutations (RAMs) to either component and any resulting RAMs at virologic failure. On the basis of this evidence, we recommend that hybrid or all-injectable regimens be considered for patients who have struggled with adherence to oral antiretroviral therapy or have partial or full resistance to one component of LA-CAB/RPV.

Conclusion
The case series reported here adds to literature supporting the notion that LA-CAB/RPV can be successfully used in patients who are viremic.

Abstract
Grey matter ageing-related tau astrogliopathy (ARTAG) pathology is common in aged brains and detected in multiple brain regions. However, the associations of grey matter ARTAG with Alzheimer's disease and other common age-related proteinopathies, in addition to clinical phenotypes, including Alzheimer's dementia and cognitive decline, remain unclear.
We examined 442 decedents (mean age at death = 90 years, males = 32%) from three longitudinal community-based clinical–pathological studies. Using AT8 immunohistochemistry, grey matter ARTAG pathology was counted in the superior frontal region, anterior temporal tip and amygdala and summarized as a severity score ranging from zero (none) to six (severe). Alzheimer's disease and other common age-related neuropathologies were also evaluated. The diagnosis of Alzheimer's dementia was based on clinical evaluations; annual tests of cognitive performance were summarized as global cognition and five cognitive domains. Multivariable logistic regression tested the associations of grey matter ARTAG pathology with an array of age-related neuropathologies. To evaluate associations of grey matter ARTAG pathology with Alzheimer's dementia and cognitive decline, we used logistic regression and linear mixed-effect models.
Grey matter ARTAG pathology was seen in 324 (73%) participants, of which 303 (68%) participants had ARTAG in the amygdala, 246 (56%) in the anterior temporal tip and 137 (31%) in the superior frontal region. Grey matter ARTAG pathology from each of the three regions was associated with a pathological diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and limbic-predominant age-related TAR DNA-binding protein 43 encephalopathy–neuropathological change but not with vascular pathology. In fully adjusted models that controlled for demographics, Alzheimer's disease and common age-related pathologies, an increase in severity of grey matter ARTAG pathology in the superior frontal cortex, but not in the amygdala or the anterior temporal tip, was associated with higher odds of Alzheimer's dementia and faster decline in global cognition, episodic memory and semantic memory.
These results provide compelling evidence that grey matter ARTAG, specifically in the superior frontal cortex, contributes to Alzheimer's dementia and cognitive decline in old age.

Abstract
Ral-binding/interacting protein (RLIP) acts as a transporter that responds to stress and provides protection, specifically against glutathione–electrophile conjugates and xenobiotic toxins. Its increased presence in malignant cells, especially in cancer, emphasizes its crucial antiapoptotic function. This is achieved by selectively regulating the cellular levels of proapoptotic oxidized lipid byproducts. Suppressing the progression of tumors in human xenografts can be achieved by effectively inhibiting RLIP, a transporter in the mercapturic acid pathway, without involving chemotherapy. Utilizing ovarian cancer (OC) cell lines (MDAH2774, OVCAR4, and OVCAR8), we observed that agents targeting RLIP, such as RLIP antisense and RLIP antibodies, not only substantially impeded the viability of OC cells but also remarkably increased their sensitivity to carboplatin. To delve further into the cytotoxic synergy between RLIP antisense, RLIP antibodies, and carboplatin, we conducted investigations in both cell culture and xenografts of OC cells. The outcomes revealed that RLIP depletion via phosphorothioate antisense led to rapid and sustained remissions in established subcutaneous human ovary xenografts. Furthermore, RLIP inhibition by RLIP antibodies exhibited comparable efficacy to antisense and enhanced the effectiveness of carboplatin in MDAH2774 OC xenografts. These investigations underscore RLIP as a central carrier crucial for supporting the survival of cancer cells, positioning it as a suitable focus for cancer treatment.
