A 2.45-GHz self-adaptive rectifier based on a two-way Gysel power divider (PD) with switch networks (SN), an impedance transform network (ITN), feedback (FN) and two rectifiers is developed in this paper. The SNs ITN are controlled by FN according to output voltages. single-path mode at low level switches two-path high level. It has been simulated, fabricated tested. original input range when e...

BACKGROUND African countries are scaling up malaria interventions, especially insecticide treated nets (ITN) and indoor residual spraying (IRS), for which ambitious coverage targets have been set. In spite of these efforts infection prevalence remains high in many parts of the continent. This study investigated risk factors for malaria infection in children using three malaria indicator surveys...

Intra-tumoral necrosis (ITN) is reported to be an independent prognostic factor in glioma. However, knowledge of ITN mainly limited pseudopalisadwe, while its other aspects were neglected. Therefore, a deeper understanding could valuable for exact role The only reliable model was time-dependently achieved with the GL261 syngeneic mouse model. ITN-associated expression pattern enriched from RNA ...

BACKGROUND Ethiopia is rapidly increasing insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) coverage to combat malaria, but adequate follow-up and factors affecting use of ITNs is lacking. The aim of this study was to assess determinants of the use of ITNs in a southwest area of Ethiopia. METHODS This cross-sectional survey was conducted in the Chewaka district settlement area of southwest Oromia from March to...

Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) and childhood vaccination are two of the most powerful interventions available to prevent childhood mortality in Africa, but ITN coverage is still very low. Current debates about how to increase ITN coverage are concerned with the roles of different supply and delivery systems, in particular whether or not commercial net markets have any useful role. Here, we rev...

Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) are at the forefront of malaria control programs and even though the percentage of households in sub-Saharan Africa that owned nets increased from 3% in 2000 to 53% in 2012, many children continue to die from malaria. The potential impact of ITNs on reducing malaria transmission is limited due to inconsistent or improper use, as well as physical decay in effectiv...

There is increased trend of binge watching on the Internet Television Network (ITN) among youth has gained notable scholarly interest in studying this new concept. Limited studies, however, have focused effects youth. With its theoretical foundations Uses and gratifications theory Model antecedents consequences Binge Watching, our study was an attempt to fill gap. The major objectives included ...

BACKGROUND Malaria in pregnancy is still a major health issue in Nigeria, accounting for about 33% of cause of maternal death. Despite massive efforts to make insecticide-treated net (ITN) available to pregnant women in Nigeria, the use is still low. This study was conducted to identify facilitators and inhibitors for the use of ITN/long-lasting insecticidal net (LLIN) among pregnant women in N...

There is robust evidence of the efficacy of insecticide-treated mosquito nets (ITNs) in reducing malaria parasite prevalence, incidence, and all-cause child mortality from carefully conducted trials in subSaharan Africa across a range of transmission settings [1]. Trials have shown ITNs to both significantly reduce Plasmodium falciparum prevalence among children under 5 years old by 13% and pos...

Short-latency spinally mediated interlimb reflex pathways were recently reported between the left and right soleus muscles in the human lower-limb during sitting. The aim of the current study was to establish if these pathways were observed during a functional motor task such as human gait and modulated by the gait cycle phase and/or electrical stimulation intensity. The second aim was to eluci...
