Article Synopsis
- A global survey revealed a significant decrease in the number of cytological specimens processed during the post-lockdown period of 2020, compared to 2019, with a drop of 26.5%.
- Despite fewer specimens, the malignancy rates increased notably, indicating potential unmet needs in cancer diagnosis during the pandemic.
- The data suggests a gradual return to normalcy in cytopathology practices, as seen in the increased workload late in the post-lockdown phase.
Soft magnetic materials are at the core of electromagnetic devices. Planar transformers are essential pieces of equipment working at high frequency. Usually, their magnetic core is made of various types of ferrites or iron-based alloys.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFA position sensing glove called SmartScan, which creates a 3D virtual model of a real object, is presented. The data from the glove is processed by a volume minimization algorithm to validate the position sensor data. This allows only data from the object's surface to be retained.

Methods: Data regarding the activity of each cytopathology laboratory during 4 weeks of COVID-19 lockdown were collected and compared with those obtained during the corresponding period in 2019.
A soft magnetic MnZn-type ferrite is considered for high frequency applications. First, the morphological, structural, and chemical composition of the material are presented and discussed. Subsequently, by using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), the hysteresis loops are recorded.
