Imaging concealed objects with millimeter-wave coherent radiation is accompanied by speckle. Like all interference phenomena, speckle depends on three light parameters of the millimeter-wave laser beam--phase, wavelength, and angle of incidence--and can be reduced by the diversity of these three parameters. Diversity tools to improve images of concealed objects have been compared. We report measurements, simulations, and image reconstruction results over the whole W-band (75-110 GHz) and demonstrate where each tool works the best. Multiphase diversity is successful in reducing speckle contrast: multiangle to improve the image quality, and multispectral to recognize a small object's features. A simple postprocessing eliminates the areas still covered by interference.

Background: Anxiety and depression represent prevalent yet frequently undetected mental health concerns within the older population. The challenge of identifying these conditions presents an opportunity for artificial intelligence (AI)-driven, remotely available, tools capable of screening and monitoring mental health. A critical criterion for such tools is their cultural adaptability to ensure effectiveness across diverse populations.

Introduction: In recent years there has been a notable expansion of psychotherapeutic approaches to treat people experiencing auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH). While many psychotherapists conceptualize voices as "dissociative parts" and apply therapeutic techniques derived from the field of dissociation, research investigating AVH from this perspective is limited. Despite the acknowledgment that voices encountered in dissociative identity disorder (DID) often exhibit high complexity and autonomy, there is a critical need for assessment tools capable of exploring voice complexity across different clinical groups.

Despite producing mountains of data in the daily course of care, the documentation labors of frontline clinicians currently return very little value to them or to the health system. The potential of these painstakingly collected data are enormous and clinical registries can extract the extraordinary capacity of these data and transform them into research-ready datasets while protecting the confidentiality of the patients and clinicians. Clinical registries represent transformative tools for primary care research, bringing together the dimensions of clinical practice, research, quality improvement, and policy impact from a large, nationally reflective, diverse sample of practices and patients.

Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is a significant pathogen that exerts substantial economic influence on the global cattle industry. Developing a safe and effective novel vaccine targeting various BVDV subtypes is critical for controlling BVDV infection. In the study, we created two distinct multi-epitope vaccines by linking highly conserved and dominant cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL), helper T-lymphocytes (HTL), and B-cell epitopes from either the E0 or E2 envelope glycoprotein of diverse BVDV subtypes.
