Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential for reducing morbidity and mortality in tuberculous meningitis (TBM). This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the Xpert MTB/RIF assay for the diagnosis of TBM in patients with subacute lymphocytic meningitis. This cross-sectional study included 65 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) specimens from patients at Maharaj Nakorn Chiang Mai University Hospital, Thailand, between January 2015 and March 2016.

The reconstruction of large-sized soft tissue defects remains a substantial clinical challenge, with adipose tissue engineering emerging as a promising solution. The acellular dermal matrix (ADM), known for its intricate spatial arrangement and active cytokine involvement, is widely employed as a scaffold in soft tissue engineering. Since ADM shares high similarity with decellularized adipose matrix, it holds potential as a substitute for adipose tissue.

In general, edge computing networks are based on a distributed computing environment and hence, present some difficulties to obtain an appropriate load balancing, especially under dynamic workload and limited resources. The conventional approaches of Load balancing like Round-Robin and Threshold-based load balancing fails in scalability and flexibility issues when applied to highly variable edge environments. To solve the problem of how to achieve steady-state load balance and provide dynamic adaption to edge networks, this paper proposes a new framework that using PCA and MDP.

In spectral analysis, selecting the right spectral variables is crucial for effective modeling. It reduces data dimensionality, removes irrelevant wavelength points, and improves both the generalization ability and computational efficiency of the model. However, the number of available samples often falls short of the total possible combinations of wavelengths, making variable selection a non-deterministic polynomial-time (NP) hard optimization problem.

Membrane-based gas separation provides an energy-efficient approach for the simultaneous CO and HS removal from sour natural gas. The fluorinated polyimide (PI) membranes exhibited a promising balance between permeability and permselectivity for sour natural gas separation. To further improve the separation efficiency of fluorinated PI membranes, a melamine-copolymerization synthetic approach is devised that aims to incorporate melamine motifs with high sour gas affinity into the structure of the PI membranes.
