Because of their extensive experience with death and dying, hospice volunteers may be more successful at engaging in meaning-making regarding their death-related experiences than their low point life experiences (e.g., job loss). Consequently, their memories of death-related experiences will manifest more meaning-making strategies (e.g., bendfit-finding) than their low point memories. Fifty-two hospice volunteers wrote memory narratives of death-related and low point experiences and provided ratings of their memories. Results show that death memory narratives exhibit more meaning-making strategies, are rated as more emotionally positive, and are more frequently rehearsed. The long-term significance of the use of meaning-making strategies is discussed.

Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a significant global health concern linked to various cancers, particularly cervical cancer. Timely and accurate detection of HPV is crucial for effective management and prevention strategies. Traditional laboratory-based HPV testing methods often suffer from limitations such as long turnaround times, restricted accessibility, and the need for trained personnel, especially in resource-limited settings.

Human pose estimation is an important research direction in the field of computer vision, which aims to accurately identify the position and posture of keypoints of the human body through images or videos. However, multi-person pose estimation yields false detection or missed detection in dense crowds, and it is still difficult to detect small targets. In this paper, we propose a Mamba-based human pose estimation.

As the demand for high-speed, low-latency communication continues to grow, free-space optical (FSO) communication has gained prominence as a promising solution for supporting the next generation of wireless networks, especially in the context of the 5G and beyond era. It offers high-speed, low-latency data transmission over long distances without the need for a physical infrastructure. However, the deployment of FSO systems faces significant challenges, such as atmospheric turbulence, weather-induced signal degradation, and alignment issues, all of which can impair performance.

Fixed-point thickness measurement is commonly used in corrosion detection within petrochemical enterprises, but it suffers from low detection efficiency for localized thinning, limitations regarding measurement locations, and high equipment costs due to insulation and cooling layers. To address these challenges, this paper introduces a wireless passive ultrasonic thickness measurement technique based on a pulse compression algorithm. The research methodology encompassed the development of mathematical and circuit models for single coil and wireless energy transmission, the proposal of a three-terminal wireless energy mutual coupling system, and the establishment of a finite element model simulating the ultrasonic body wave thickness measurement and wireless energy transmission system.
