(2024-06-09)Processing in Memory based on memristors is considered the most effective solution to overcome the Von Neumann bottleneck issue and has become a hot research topic. The execution efficiency of logical computation and ... -
Decoding the amplitude and slope of continuous signals into spikes with a spiking point neuron model
(BioRxiv, 2024-05-20)In this study, we harness the signal processing potential of neurons, utilizing the Izhikevich point neuron model to efficiently decode the slope or amplitude of fluctuating continuous input signals. Using biophysically ... -
Ambulance clinician use of capillary blood ketone meters to improve emergency hyperglycaemia care: A stepped‐wedged controlled, mixed‐methods feasibility study
(2024-06-09)Aim: To determine whether it was feasible, safe and acceptable for ambulance clinicians to use capillary blood ketone meters for ‘high‐risk’ diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) recognition and fluid initiation, to inform the need ... -
Exploring Vaping Patterns and Weight Management-Related Concerns among Adolescents and Young Adults: A Systematic Review
(2024-05-14)Background: Electronic cigarettes or vapes are battery-operated devices that heat a liquid, often containing nicotine and flavouring substances, to produce an inhalable aerosol. Despite being used as an alternative to ... -
The Galaxies Missed by Hubble and ALMA: The Contribution of Extremely Red Galaxies to the Cosmic Census at 3 < z < 8
(2024-06-06)Using deep JWST imaging from JADES, JEMS, and SMILES, we characterize optically faint and extremely red galaxies at z > 3 that were previously missing from galaxy census estimates. The data indicate the existence of abundant, ... -
Enhanced peripheral levels of BDNF and proBDNF: elucidating neurotrophin dynamics in cocaine use disorder
(2024-03-01)Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and its precursor, proBDNF, are known to significantly contribute to brain homeostasis, neuroplasticity, and neuronal remodeling. Although these neurotrophins are thought to have ... -
Inflammation and platelet reactivity during adjunctive colchicine versus aspirin in patients with acute coronary syndrome treated with potent P2Y12 inhibitor
(2024-04-19)Background: In patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), the use of anti-inflammatory therapy with colchicine is associated with a reduction of recurrent ischemic events. The mechanisms of such findings ... -
