A theoretical model of vertically coupled triple microring resonators (VCTMRRs) in the Z domain is presented in this work. Delay line signal processing approach in Z-domain modeling is used for the performance analysis of waveguide-based VCTMRRs. Overall transmittance of the VCTMRR is determined in the Z domain, and frequency response is evaluated in a MATLAB environment. Performance in terms of free spectral range (FSR) and crosstalk of VCTMRR with two symmetric rings is compared with previously published results, and found to be in close agreement. VCTMRR architectures with different ring length combinations have been considered for the analysis. Performance of a VCTMRR with three asymmetric rings is also reported and compared with the performance of a VCTMRR with two symmetric rings in the present work. The design provides transmission characteristics where spurious transmission (crosstalk) at the interstitial frequencies that lie between the extended FSR is adequately suppressed. Group delay and dispersion characteristics are also presented.

Background: This study aimed to provide a comprehensive review of adverse events (AEs) associated with factor Xa (FXa) inhibitors in pediatric patients.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and the European Union Clinical Trials Register for English-language records from the establishment of the database up to October 17, 2023.

Introduction: Dolutegravir (DTG) + lamivudine (3TC) demonstrated high rates of virologic suppression (VS) and low rates of virologic failure (VF), discontinuation, and drug resistance in randomized trials. Real-world evidence can support treatment effectiveness, safety, and tolerability in clinical practice and aid in treatment decisions.
Methods: A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted to identify studies using DTG + 3TC (January 2013-March 2024).

Context: Ionization and adsorption in gas discharge are similar to electrophilic and nucleophilic reactions. The molecular descriptors characterizing reactions such as electrostatic potential descriptors are useful in predicting the electrical strength of environmentally friendly gases. In this study, descriptors of 73 molecules are employed for correlation analysis with electrical strength.

If a shortened lifespan is evolutionarily advantageous, it becomes more likely that nature will strive to change it accordingly, affecting how we understand aging. Premature mortality because of aging would seem detrimental to the individual, but under what circumstances can it be of value? Based on a relative incremental increase in fitness, simulations were performed to reveal the benefit of death. This modification allows for continuous evolution in the model and establishes an optimal lifespan even under challenging conditions.
