A quest to provide an answer on the impact of maternal anthropometry on neonatal birth weight necessitated this study. Materials and methods: It is a cross-sectional descriptive hospital based study that involved 130 participants selected using a systematic sampling method, utilizing a semi-structured, pre-tested interviewer administered questionnaire. Data were collected using a standard procedure and were summarized using proportions, and the Chi square test was used to explore the association between categorical variables. Predictors of birth weight were determined using logistic regression. The level of statistical significance was set at p Results: Participants had a mean age of 28.6 ± 5.1 years, mean weight of 72.2 ± 11.2 kg and mean height of 1.63 ± 0.07m while the mean fetal birth weight was 3.10 ± 0.56 kg. There was a significant association between maternal delivery body mass index and neonatal birth weight (p Conclusion: The prevalence of low birth weight and macrosomia in this study population was high. The focus should be geared towards balanced nutrition support for all mothers at booking so as to mitigate the risks associated with these extremes of birth weight.展开更多

These drones leverage the Internet of Things (IoT) to offer cross-location services for navigation. However, they are susceptible to security and privacy threats due to hardware and architectural issues. Although small drones hold promise for expansion in both civil and defense sectors, they have safety, security, and privacy threats. Addressing these challenges is crucial to maintaining the security and uninterrupted operations of these drones. In this regard, this study investigates security, and preservation concerning both the drones and Internet of Drones (IoD), emphasizing the significance of creating drone networks that are secure and can robustly withstand interceptions and intrusions. The proposed framework incorporates a weighted voting ensemble model comprising three convolutional neural network (CNN) models to enhance intrusion detection within the network. The employed CNNs are customized 1D models optimized to obtain better performance. The output from these CNNs is voted using a weighted criterion using a 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3 ratio for three CNNs, respectively. Experiments involve using multiple benchmark datasets, achieving an impressive accuracy of up to 99.89% on drone data. The proposed model shows promising results concerning precision, recall, and F1 as indicated by their obtained values of 99.92%, 99.98%, and 99.97%, respectively. Furthermore, cross-validation and performance comparison with existing works is also carried out. Findings indicate that the proposed approach offers a prospective solution for detecting security threats for aerial systems and satellite systems with high accuracy.展开更多

文摘In this paper,the Paley-Wiener theorem is extended to the analytic function spaces with general weights.We first generalize the theorem to weighted Hardy spaces Hp(0<p<∞)on tube domains by constructing a sequence of L^(1)functions converging to the given function and verifying their representation in the form of Fourier transform to establish the desired result of the given function.Applying this main result,we further generalize the Paley-Wiener theorem for band-limited functions to the analytic function spaces L^(p)(0<p<∞)with general weights.
文摘Since the discovery of carbon dots(CDs)in 2004,the unique photoluminescence phenomenon of CDs has attracted widespread attention.However,the molecular weight of CDs has not been adequately quantified at present,due to CDs are atomically imprecise and their molecular weight distribution is broad.In this paper,a series of Pluronic-modified CDs were prepared and the structure of the CDs was briefly analyzed.Subsequently,a molecular weight measurement method based on colligative properties was developed,and the correction coefficient in the algorithm was briefly analyzed.The calculated molecular weight was applied to the determination of surface adsorption capacity.This work provided a method for averaging the molecular weight of atomically imprecise particulate materials,which is expected to provide new opportunities in related fields.

文摘Background: Birth weight has been identified as one of the most significant predictors of a child’s physical growth, development, and survival in later life. A quest to provide an answer on the impact of maternal anthropometry on neonatal birth weight necessitated this study. Materials and methods: It is a cross-sectional descriptive hospital based study that involved 130 participants selected using a systematic sampling method, utilizing a semi-structured, pre-tested interviewer administered questionnaire. Data were collected using a standard procedure and were summarized using proportions, and the Chi square test was used to explore the association between categorical variables. Predictors of birth weight were determined using logistic regression. The level of statistical significance was set at p Results: Participants had a mean age of 28.6 ± 5.1 years, mean weight of 72.2 ± 11.2 kg and mean height of 1.63 ± 0.07m while the mean fetal birth weight was 3.10 ± 0.56 kg. There was a significant association between maternal delivery body mass index and neonatal birth weight (p Conclusion: The prevalence of low birth weight and macrosomia in this study population was high. The focus should be geared towards balanced nutrition support for all mothers at booking so as to mitigate the risks associated with these extremes of birth weight.

文摘In the 3D inversion modeling of gravity and magnetic potential field data,the model weighting function is often applied to overcome the skin eff ect of inversion results.However,divergence occurs at the the deep area,and artificial weak negative anomalies form around the positive anomalies in the horizontal direction,resulting in a reduction in the overall resolution.To fully utilize the model weighting function,this study constructs a combined model weighting function.First,a new depth weighting function is constructed by adding a regulator into the conventional depth weighting function to overcome the skin eff ect and inhibit the divergence at the deep area of the inversion results.A horizontal weighting function is then constructed by extracting information from the observation data;this function can suppress the formation of artificial weak anomalies and improve the horizontal resolution of the inversion results.Finally,these two functions are coupled to obtain the combined model weighting function,which can replace the conventional depth weighting function in 3D inversion.It improves the vertical and horizontal resolution of the inversion results without increasing the algorithm complexity and calculation amount,is easy to operate,and adapts to any 3D inversion method.Two model experiments are designed to verify the effectiveness,practicability,and anti-noise of the combined model weighting function.Then the function is applied to the 3D inversion of the measured aeromagnetic data in the Jinchuan area in China.The obtained inversion results are in good agreement with the known geological data.
文摘Weight loss,whether resulting from disease-related conditions or intentional interventions,has been increasingly recognized as a significant risk factor for compromised skeletal integrity.While moderate weight reduction may yield metabolic benefits,rapid or sustained weight loss is frequently associated with decreased bone mineral density,deterioration of bone microarchitecture,and heightened fracture risk.The mechanisms underlying weight loss–induced bone loss are complex and multifactorial.Emerging evidence highlights a range of contributing factors,including reduced mechanical loading,increased bone marrow adiposity,hormonal and endocrine alterations,nutritional deficiencies,and disruptions in energy metabolism.These mechanisms are intricately interconnected,ultimately impairing bone remodeling and homeostatic balance.In this review,we provide a comprehensive analysis of the current literature on the mechanistic pathways,clinical consequences,and therapeutic strategies related to weight loss–induced bone loss.We further differentiate the skeletal effects of disease-associated versus interventioninduced weight loss,with a focus on their distinct molecular underpinnings.Our goal is to offer novel insights into the optimization of bone health management in the context of weight loss,guided by a translational medicine perspective.
文摘The Double Take column looks at a single topic from an African and Chinese perspective.This month,we explore how young people respond to the increasing focus on body weight management.As obesity rates climb,body weight management has become a growing concern in China.The government is introducing targeted policies,hospitals are setting up dedicated clinics,and health experts are speaking out.But weight is no longer just a medical issue-it’s increas-ingly tied to identity,confidence,and social image.We examine the cultural forces shaping how young people in China and Africa approach weight-what drives their choices,how ideals are formed,and where health meets appearance in today’s shifting societies.

文摘Background:Weight stigma is prevalent and has multiple sources,which have significant effects on individual,social,physical,and psychological health.This study evaluated the psychometric properties of the Thai version of WeSEI to provide a valid tool to assess weight stigma in Thai young adults.Methods:A cross-sectional online survey recruited 517 Thai university students from October 2024 to May 2025.All participants completed demographic information and standardized self-reported instruments,including WeSEI,Depression,Anxiety,and Stress scale 21(DASS-21),Weight Self-Stigma Questionnaire(WSSQ),and Perceived Weight Stigma Scale(PWSS).The psychometric properties of the Thai version of WeSEI were examined via confirmatory factor analysis(CFA)with some validity indices.Results:The 7-factor structure of the Thai version of the WeSEI was supported across sex and weight status subgroups,indicating good construct validity.In addition,internal consistency(Cronbach’sα=0.972;McDonald’sω=0.972),convergent,and discriminant validity also indicated that the Thai version of the WeSEI had good psychometric properties and assessed weight stigma among young people in Thailand.Conclusions:Sound psychometric properties of the Thai adaptation of WeSEI allows the identification of various sources contributing to weight stigma and to identify those experiencing high levels of weight stigma.It also provides evidence to support targeted interventions to reduce weight stigma and its associated mental health impacts in further research.Further studies are necessary to explore the utilization of WeSEI for weight stigma in Thailand.
文摘The increasing prevalence of multi-view data has made multi-view clustering a crucial technique for discovering latent structures from heterogeneous representations.However,traditional fuzzy clustering algorithms show limitations with the inherent uncertainty and imprecision of such data,as they rely on a single-dimensional membership value.To overcome these limitations,we propose an auto-weighted multi-view neutrosophic fuzzy clustering(AW-MVNFC)algorithm.Our method leverages the neutrosophic framework,an extension of fuzzy sets,to explicitly model imprecision and ambiguity through three membership degrees.The core novelty of AWMVNFC lies in a hierarchical weighting strategy that adaptively learns the contributions of both individual data views and the importance of each feature within a view.Through a unified objective function,AW-MVNFC jointly optimizes the neutrosophic membership assignments,cluster centers,and the distributions of view and feature weights.Comprehensive experiments conducted on synthetic and real-world datasets demonstrate that our algorithm achieves more accurate and stable clustering than existing methods,demonstrating its effectiveness in handling the complexities of multi-view data.
文摘Small-drone technology has opened a range of new applications for aerial transportation. These drones leverage the Internet of Things (IoT) to offer cross-location services for navigation. However, they are susceptible to security and privacy threats due to hardware and architectural issues. Although small drones hold promise for expansion in both civil and defense sectors, they have safety, security, and privacy threats. Addressing these challenges is crucial to maintaining the security and uninterrupted operations of these drones. In this regard, this study investigates security, and preservation concerning both the drones and Internet of Drones (IoD), emphasizing the significance of creating drone networks that are secure and can robustly withstand interceptions and intrusions. The proposed framework incorporates a weighted voting ensemble model comprising three convolutional neural network (CNN) models to enhance intrusion detection within the network. The employed CNNs are customized 1D models optimized to obtain better performance. The output from these CNNs is voted using a weighted criterion using a 0.4, 0.3, and 0.3 ratio for three CNNs, respectively. Experiments involve using multiple benchmark datasets, achieving an impressive accuracy of up to 99.89% on drone data. The proposed model shows promising results concerning precision, recall, and F1 as indicated by their obtained values of 99.92%, 99.98%, and 99.97%, respectively. Furthermore, cross-validation and performance comparison with existing works is also carried out. Findings indicate that the proposed approach offers a prospective solution for detecting security threats for aerial systems and satellite systems with high accuracy.
