Published: August 2023

Tuberculosis continues to be a significant cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide, particularly in developing countries. Diagnosis and treatment of paediatric patients presents a challenge that can only be improved by the joint efforts of the international community, working together in cooperation and partnership. This article reviews global resources available to doctors and healthcare professionals in the fight against TB, including international programmes, policies and healthcare pathways. Special attention is paid to the role of international paediatric radiology in improving diagnostics, including available educational resources and support on a global, regional, national and individual level.

EEG-based emotion recognition using multi-scale dynamic CNN and gated transformer.

Sci Rep

December 2024

School of Electronic Information and Electrical Engineering, Yangtze University, Jingzhou, 434100, Hubei, China.

Emotions play a crucial role in human thoughts, cognitive processes, and decision-making. EEG has become a widely utilized tool in emotion recognition due to its high temporal resolution, real-time monitoring capabilities, portability, and cost-effectiveness. In this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end emotion recognition method from EEG signals, called MSDCGTNet, which is based on the Multi-Scale Dynamic 1D CNN and the Gated Transformer.

Spatiotemporal dynamics and spatial correlation patterns of urban ecological resilience across the Yellow River Basin in China.

Sci Rep

December 2024

State Key Laboratory of Hydraulics and Mountain River Engineering, College of Water Resource and Hydropower, Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610065, China.

Addressing the need to harmonize environment conservation and sustainable economic development within the Yellow River Basin (YRB) requires a profound comprehension of the spatiotemporal dynamics of urban ecosystem resilience. This study developed an index system utilizing the resistance-adaptability-recovery framework to measure these dynamics. By applying the advanced multi-attribute boundary area comparison method and a spatial autocorrelation model, we investigated the spatiotemporal variations and spatial correlation patterns of urban ecological resilience across the YRB.

Introduction: The WHO neglected tropical diseases (NTD) roadmap (2021-2030) proposed a shift in approach to addressing NTDs through accountability for impact, implementing integration across NTDs, mainstreaming in national health systems and ensuring country ownership. However, a major challenge has been the dearth of evidence on how to implement this shift in a resource-limited setting. The objective of this scoping review is to understand the extent and type of evidence on the mainstreaming or integration of programmes and/or interventions against NTDs into the national health system.
