Closed traumatism of the distal pancreas (A case series of 6 patients).

Introduction And Importance: The aim of this retrospective study was to present six cases of trauma to the distal pancreas, highlighting the challenges associated with their diagnosis and management, while underlining their seriousness and the various complications potentially encountered. Our case series highlights individual patient outcomes, demonstrating the diversity of clinical presentations and the importance of customized treatment strategies.

Case Series: Between January 2015 and December 2020, six cases of distal pancreas trauma were identified.

Indoor Large-Scale MIMO-Based RSSI Localization with Low-Complexity RFID Infrastructure.

Indoor localization based on unsynchronized, low-complexity, passive radio frequency identification (RFID) using the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) has a wide potential for a variety of internet of things (IoTs) applications due to their energy-harvesting capabilities and low complexity. However, conventional RSSI-based algorithms present inaccurate ranging, especially in indoor environments, mainly because of the multipath randomness effect. In this work, we propose RSSI-based localization with low-complexity, passive RFID infrastructure utilizing the potential benefits of large-scale MIMO technology operated in the millimeter-wave band, which offers channel hardening, in order to alleviate the effect of small-scale fading.
