We report the case of a 68-year-old man with a fracture of the catheter of a port-a-cath, dislodged into the right atrium. Two days after the diagnosis, the fragment embolized into the lobar artery of the left lower lung lobe. The catheter was removed using a gooseneck snare.

A memristor-based circuit design of avoidance learning with time delay and its application.

Currently, the research in memristor-based associative memory neural networks pays more attention to positive stimuli and lays less attention to negative stimuli. Negative stimuli are superior to positive stimuli in some ways, but lack the associated circuit implementation. In this paper, a memristor-based circuit design of avoidance learning with time delay is designed.

During the batch process, the need for security control is becoming increasingly urgent with the gradual penetration of network control technology. For small time delay batch processes subject to deception attacks, an iterative learning robust security predictive tracking control approach is developed. Reviewing previous studies for iterative learning control, the issue that the repetitive character of the batch process would mask the characteristics of deception attacks was not considered.

Article Synopsis
- High-power ultrawideband (UWB) radiation systems require multiple modules due to limitations in output from avalanche transistors, which can lead to larger apertures and narrower beams, restricting some applications.
- A new approach using a power-law time delay distribution method is proposed to optimize the relative excitation times of the modules for better performance, helping prevent undesirable beam splitting during beam broadening.
- The developed radiation system with 36 modules achieves a peak effective potential of 313.6 kV and a pulse-repetition rate of 20 kHz, while broadening the beam width in the H-plane from 3.9° to 7.9° and allowing for flexible polarization adjustment.
A Single-Shot Technique for Measuring Broadband Two-Photon Absorption Spectra in Solution.

Department of Chemistry, University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kansas 66045, United States.
Applications involving two-photon activation, including two-photon fluorescence imaging, photodynamic therapy, and 3D data storage, require precise knowledge of the two-photon absorption (2PA) spectra of target chromophores. Broadband pump-probe spectroscopy using femtosecond laser pulses provides wavelength-dependent 2PA spectra with absolute cross sections, but the measurements are sometimes complicated by cross-phase modulation effects and dispersion of the broadband probe. Here, we introduce a single-shot approach that eliminates artifacts from cross-phase modulation and enables more rapid measurements by avoiding the need to scan the time delay between the pump and the probe pulses.

Introduction Managing open lower extremity fractures is challenging, with potential complications such as amputation and infection. The aim of the study was to determine whether the time delay and initial treatment of the patients treated in a non-specialized hospital before being transferred to a dedicated level I trauma center led to a worse outcome. Methods Retrospective data from 44 patients (37 males and seven females) undergoing free tissue transfer for lower extremity open fractures from January 2017 to December 2022 were analyzed.
