Published: July 2019

The domestic refugee screening is a valuable tool to link newly arrived refugees to the US health care system and can assist in providing a continuum of care from overseas to arrival. Beyond initial refugee screening, accessing general medical, dental, and mental health services can be significantly challenging.

High resolving power electrospray drift tube ion mobility spectrometer with heated desolvation tube.

Anal Chim Acta

February 2025

University of Basel, Department of Chemistry, Klingelbergstrasse 80, 4056, Basel, Switzerland. Electronic address:

Background: The separation performance of drift tube ion mobility spectrometers is usually relatively weak with resolving powers well below 100. Improving this aspect requires, besides the optimization of other parameters, the challenging increase of the drift voltage as deduced from fundamental equations describing the broadening of a drifting ion swarm. We recently succeeded in constructing an improved high voltage instrument equipped with an electrospray source capable of analysing liquid samples with resolving powers above 200.

REHABS, International Research Laboratory, CNRS-NMU-UCBL, George Campus, Nelson Mandela University, George, South Africa.

Plasmodium vivax is the predominant malaria parasite in Latin America. Its colonization history in the region is rich and complex, and is still highly debated, especially about its origin(s). Our study employed cutting-edge population genomic techniques to analyze whole genome variation from 620 P.

Searching to extrapolate embedding for out-of-graph node representation learning.

Neural Netw

January 2025

Department of Electronic Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China. Electronic address:

Out-of-graph node representation learning aims at learning about newly arrived nodes for a dynamic graph. It has wide applications ranging from community detection, recommendation system to malware detection. Although existing methods can be adapted for out-of-graph node representation learning, real-world challenges such as fixed in-graph node embedding and data diversity essentially limit the performance of these methods.

Article Synopsis
  • Southern Africa has a long history of human habitation, with diverse immigration affecting the original KhoeSan populations over thousands of years, leading to their decline or admixture, primarily involving KhoeSan women.
  • The study analyzed mitochondrial DNA from 247 South African individuals focused on groups with historical ties to KhoeSan populations to evaluate genetic diversity and connectivity among these groups.
  • Results showed 142 distinct haplotypes, predominantly haplogroup L0, especially within admixed populations, indicating significant population structure and limitations in using mtDNA analysis for forensic purposes due to observed regional variations and matrilocal patterns.

Islands are well known for their unique biodiversity and significance in evolutionary and ecological studies. Nevertheless, the extinction of island species accounts for most human-caused extinctions in recent time scales, which have accelerated in recent centuries. Pigeons and doves (Columbidae) are noteworthy for the high number of island endemics, as well as for the risks those species have faced since human arrival.
