Exascale integrated modeling of low-order wavefront sensing and control for the Roman Coronagraph instrument.

Astronomical instruments to detect exoplanets require extreme wavefront stability. For these missions to succeed, comprehensive and precise modeling is required to design and analyze suitable coronagraphs and their wavefront control systems. In this paper, we describe techniques for integrated modeling at scale that is, to the best of our knowledge, 1000 times faster than previously published works.

Health-Related Quality of Life in Stroke Survivors in Relation to the Type of Inpatient Rehabilitation in Serbia: A Prospective Cohort Study.

: Health-related quality of life after stroke is an important public health issue.

Epidemiology of end-stage renal disease and hemodialysis treatment in Serbia at the turn of the millennium.

The study presents the epidemiological features of patients treated with renal replacement therapy (RRT) in Serbia from 1997 to 2009 and compares the results of hemodialysis treatment in 1999 and 2009. Epidemiological data were obtained from the National Registry of RRT patients and data on hemodialysis treatment from special surveys conducted in 1999 and 2009. Within the period 1997-2009 the incidence of patients on RRT increased from 108 to 179 per million population (pmp), prevalence rose from 435 to 699 pmp, while mortality rate fell from 20.

[Assessment of health-related quality of life in patients after acute myocardial infarction].

Introduction: Acute myocardial infarction has negative influence on patient's quality of life. The objective of the paper was to assess the health-related quality of life in the patients one month and twelve months after acute myocardial infarction and to compare it with the healthy controls.

Material And Methods: A prospective cohort study involved 160 patients aged from 30 to 79 and 240 healthy controls.

The recovery of motor function in post stroke patients.

Purpose: The purpose of the paper was to assess physical recovery in post stroke patients.

Work Method: Prospective cohort study was conducted. The study involved 30 post stroke patients from the city of Nis, aged 40-69.

[Low power laser in the treatment of the acute low back pain].

Background/aim: Acute low back pain (ALBP) is one of the most frequent painful conditions in the human population. The objective of the paper was to compare the efficacy of the low power laser (LPL) in the pain and the muscular spasm reduction with conservative methods of physical medicine.

Method: The prospective cohort study was done.

[Renal replacement therapy in adult dominant polycystic kidney disease--multicentre study].

Introduction: Adult polycystic kidney disease (APKD) is the most common hereditary kidney disease in humans. The course of the disease is accompanied by numerous complications. OBJECTIVE The aim was to assess the prevalence, clinical course and outcome of adult dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) patients on renal replacement therapy.
