Control signalling information within wireless communication systems facilitates efficient management of limited wireless resources, plays a key role in improving system performance of 5G systems. This chapter focuses detection of one particular form of control information, namely, selective control information (SCI). Maximum-likelihood (ML) is one of the conventional SCI detection techniques. ...

Tyramine poisoning is caused by the ingestion of food containing high levels of tyramine, a biogenic amine. Any foods containing free tyrosine are subject to tyramine formation if poor sanitation and low quality foods are used or if the food is subject to temperature abuse or extended storage time. Tyramine is generated by decarboxylation of the tyrosine through tyrosine decarboxylase (TDC) enz...

BACKGROUND The present study was planned to investigate the therapeutic actions of 1-tetradecanol complex (1-TDC), a novel monounsaturated fatty acid mixture, in established periodontitis in rabbits. METHODS Periodontitis was initiated in 18 New Zealand White rabbits using ligatures around mandibular second premolars, followed by topical Porphyromonas gingivalis application (10(9) colony form...

Abstract Science undergraduates’ timely degree completion (TDC) has become increasingly important for students themselves, universities, and society, due to issues such as cost, efficiency, productivity, respectively. This study investigated the potential effect of several variables on TDC Bachelor (BSc) at an Australian research-intensive university. Results showed that two time-dependent (TDV...

This study compared magnetoencephalographic (MEG) imaging-derived indices of auditory and somatosensory cortical processing in children aged 8-12 years with autism spectrum disorder (ASD; N = 18), those with sensory processing dysfunction (SPD; N = 13) who do not meet ASD criteria, and typically developing control (TDC; N = 19) participants. The magnitude of responses to both auditory and tacti...

BACKGROUND/AIMS We aimed to determine the relationships between energy intake, macronutrient intake and body composition in preschool-aged children with cerebral palsy (CP) according to gross motor functional ability in comparison with typically developing children (TDC). METHODS Seventy-three children with CP (70% male) of all functional abilities and 16 TDC (63% male) aged 2.8 ± 0.9 years p...

This paper presents a new quantization noise suppression method for a time-to-digital converter (TDC) and proposes an all-digital phase-locked loop (ADPLL) architecture using only standard cell logic gates. Using a new multiple input multiple output (MIMO) quantization noise suppression method provides an order of √ 2N improvement in TDC resolution with N parallel TDC channels. Suppressed noise...

INTRODUCTION In this study we evaluate the effects of exercise training (10 weeks) on soleus muscle morphology in diabetic nerve regeneration after injury by sciatic nerve crush. METHODS Wistar rats were assigned to either a non-diabetic (n = 6), non-diabetic injured (n = 6), diabetic (n = 6), diabetic injured (DC; n = 9), or trained diabetic injured group (TDC; n = 7). Muscle transverse sect...

The catastrophic events caused by meteorological disasters are becoming more severe in the context of global warming. The disaster chains triggered by Tropical Cyclones induce the serious losses of population and economy. It is necessary to make the regional type recognition of Tropical Cyclone Disaster Chain (TDC) effective in order to make targeted preventions. This study mainly explores the ...
