Vaccine Therapies for Prostate Cancer: Current Status and Future Outlook.

Prostate cancer is a prevalent cancer in elderly men, and immunotherapy has emerged as a promising treatment approach in recent years. The aim of immunotherapy is to stimulate the body's immune system to target and destroy cancer cells. Cancer vaccines that are highly specific, safe, and capable of creating long-lasting immune responses are a key focus in cancer immunotherapy research.

Detection of Debonding Defects in Concrete-Filled Steel Tubes Using Fluctuation Analysis Method.

This study presents a comprehensive method for detecting debonding defects in concrete-filled steel tube (CFST) structures using wave propagation analysis with externally attached piezoelectric ceramic sensors. Experimental tests and numerical simulations were conducted to evaluate the sensitivity and accuracy of two measurement techniques-the flat and oblique measurement methods-in detecting debonding defects of varying lengths and heights. The results demonstrate that the flat measurement method excels in detecting debonding height, while the oblique method is more effective for detecting debonding length.

Disturbance Robust Attitude Stabilization of Multirotors with Control Moment Gyros.

This paper presents a novel control framework for enhancing the attitude stabilization of multirotor UAVs using Control Moment Gyros (CMGs) and a Disturbance Robust Drive Law (DRDL). Due to their lightweight and compact structure, multirotor UAVs are highly susceptible to disturbances such as wind, making it challenging to achieve stable attitude control using rotor thrust alone. To address this issue, we employ CMGs to provide robust attitude control and apply Fast Terminal Sliding Mode Control (FTSMC) to ensure fast and accurate convergence within a finite time.

A 0.73 dB Multi-Gain Low Noise Amplifier Design with Fast Mode-Switching for 5G/4G Applications.

In this paper, a sub-1dB Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) with several gain modes, including amplification and attenuation modes required for the fifth and fourth generations (5G/4G) of mobile network applications, is proposed. Its current consumption is adaptive for every gain mode and varies to lower currents for lower amplifications due to the importance of current consumption for mobile network applications. The proposed LNA features an innovative architecture with a three-core input structure supporting multi-gain modes, achieving high gain and ultra-low noise performance.

A Hybrid Harmonic Curve Model for Multi-Streamer Hydrophone Positioning in Seismic Exploration.

Towed streamer positioning is a vital and essential stage in marine seismic exploration, and accurate hydrophone coordinates exert a direct and significant influence on the quality and reliability of seismic imaging. Current methods predominantly rely on analytical polynomial models for towed streamer positioning; however, these models often produce significant errors when fitting to streamers with high curvature, particularly during turning scenarios. To address this limitation, this study introduces a novel multi-streamer analytical positioning method that uses a hybrid harmonic function to model the three-dimensional coordinates of streamers.
