CTU Hornet 65 Niner: A network dataset of geographically distributed low-interaction honeypots.

This data article introduces a new network dataset created to help understand how geographical location impacts the quality, type, and amount of incoming network attacks received by honeypots. The dataset consists of 12.4 million network flows collected from nine low-interaction honeypots in nine cities across the world for 65 days, from April 29th to July 1st, 2024.

Two-dimensional integrated optical phased array with high fill-factor antennas.

A silicon photonics optical phased array with a two-dimensional matrix of antennas is experimentally demonstrated in which the unitary antennas are optimized such that light can be emitted over a high fraction of the overall array surface. This design strategy can be used to obtain a low divergence emitted beam containing a significant fraction of the total emitted power, at the expense of a reduced beam steering range. This type of device can be suited to phase front correction in optical wireless communications systems.

Effect of Ibuprofen on Markers of Acute Kidney Injury, Intestinal Injury, and Endotoxemia after Running in the Heat.

Purpose: To test the hypothesis that ibuprofen ingestion exacerbates markers of acute kidney injury (AKI), gastrointestinal (GI) injury, and endotoxemia after running in the heat.

Methods: Using a randomized double-blind crossover design, eleven physically active individuals (six women) ingested 600 mg of ibuprofen or placebo 12- and one-hour prior to running one-hour in a heated chamber (35 °C, 20%-60% R.H.

An efficient heuristic for geometric analysis of cell deformations.

Sickle cell disease causes erythrocytes to become sickle-shaped, affecting their movement in the bloodstream and reducing oxygen delivery. It has a high global prevalence and places a significant burden on healthcare systems, especially in resource-limited regions. Automated classification of sickle cells in blood images is crucial, allowing the specialist to reduce the effort required and avoid errors when quantifying the deformed cells and assessing the severity of a crisis.

Effect of Mediterranean Diet in Combination with Isokinetic Exercise Therapy on Body Composition and Cytokine Profile in Patients with Metabolic Syndrome.

Background: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a combination of comorbidities that increase pro-inflammatory cytokines (PIC) production, with subsequent body composition (BC) abnormalities and high cardiovascular risk. Treatment with diet and exercise has been suggested as possible non-pharmacological adjuvant treatment.

Objective: To determine changes in BC and PIC in patients with MS after a Mediterranean-type diet (MedDiet) and/or isokinetic exercise (IE).
