A reconfigurable entanglement distribution network suitable for connecting multiple ground nodes with a satellite.

EPJ Quantum Technol

Institute for Quantum Computing and Department of Physics & Astronomy, University of Waterloo, 200 University Ave W, Waterloo, N2L 3G1 Ontario Canada.

Satellite-based quantum communication channels are important for ultra-long distances. Given the short duration of a satellite pass, it can be challenging to efficiently connect multiple users of a city-wide network while the satellite is passing over that area. We propose a network with dual-functionality: during a brief satellite pass, the ground network is configured as a multipoint-to-point topology where all ground nodes establish entanglement with a satellite receiver.

Phenobarbital is a common antiseizure medication that has a relatively narrow therapeutic window. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is a helpful tool to guide dose adjustments for phenobarbital and avoid its toxicity. We investigated the agreement among 3 methods of quantifying phenobarbital in canine plasma: high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), point-of-care (POC) testing, and the FDA-approved immunoassay analyzer.

Content Validity of a New Soccer (Football) Return-to-Play Test: The RONDO-TEST.

J Funct Morphol Kinesiol

December 2024

Institut Nacional d'Educació Física de Catalunya (INEFC), Partida la Caparrella, 97, E-25192 Lleida, Spain.

Objectives: The aim was to assess the content validity of a new field test on general and soccer-specific motor skills before return to play.

Methods: The RONDO-TEST was assessed by a Delphi panel for its content validity. It included a survey to evaluate 16 items related to the test consisting of four 10 m lines which cross over at their mid-point, resulting in eight 5 m sectors that include locomotor skills (speeding, moving sideways, side cutting, and jumping) and soccer-specific technical skills (dribbling, slalom course, and kicking/passing).

Introduction: Physical fitness is an integral part of military readiness, and failure to meet military Physical Fitness Assessment (PFA) standards can severely damage or end careers. Postpartum active duty service members experience a drop in PFA scores and passing rates compared to their pre-pregnancy assessments. Each branch recently extended recovery time to 12 months, but more research is required to see if this change alone is enough to return both active duty and reserve component postpartum personnel to their own preconception PFA outcomes (scores, passing rates, and injury rates) and those of a control group of nullpartum female airmen.
