Nonlinear plasma simulations of the Sustained Spheromak Physics Experiment demonstrate the role of transient effects in establishing a toroidal magnetic structure that confines internal energy. Magnetohydrodynamics modeling with temperature-dependent transport coefficients compares well with experimental measurements and shows that the second current pulse improves confinement by keeping the q profile from falling below the value of 1/2, suppressing resonant m = 1, n = 2 fluctuations.

Background: Results on parental burden during the COVID-19 pandemic are predominantly available from nonrepresentative samples. Although sample selection can significantly influence results, the effects of sampling strategies have been largely underexplored.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate how sampling strategy may impact study results.

Background: Cervical cancer screening program in Uganda is opportunistic and focuses mainly on women aged 25-49 years. Female sex workers (FSWs) are at increased risk of developing invasive cervical cancer. There is limited data regarding the uptake and acceptability of cervical cancer screening among FSWs in Uganda.

This study examined the ability of the following five dynamic models for predicting pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) incidence in a prison setting: the Wells-Riley equation, two Rudnick & Milton-proposed models based on air changes per hour and liters per second per person, the Issarow et al. model, and the applied susceptible-exposed-infected-recovered (SEIR) tuberculosis (TB) transmission model. This 1-year prospective cohort study employed 985 cells from three Thai prisons (one prison with 652 cells as the in-sample, and two prisons with 333 cells as the out-of-sample).
