In the OlympiAD phase III trial, olaparib significantly prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) vs chemotherapy in patients (pts) with germline-BRCA-mutated (gBRCAm), HER2-negative mBC regardless of hormone receptor (HR) status. a study population that reflects clinical practice, IIIb LUCY trial similarly showed effectiveness HR ASCO/CAP guidelines highlight lack data on best treatment approa...

Planetary surface vehicles (PSVs) play a critical role in space explorations. Flexible-wheel (FW) suspension concept has been regarded to be one of the novel technologies for future PSVs, where a few experimental studies have demonstrated its potential benefits in improving tractive performance of PSVs. This study develops generalized models for fundamental stiffness and damping properties and ...

Anatomical airways parameters, such as length, diameter and angles, have a strong effect on the flow dynamics. Aiming to explore of variations bifurcation angle (BA) carina rounding radius (CRR) lower human respiratory processes, numerical simulations airflow during inhalation exhalation were performed using synthetic models. Geometries for models parameterized based set different BA’s several ...

Cost Recovery Rateat the Royal Prima Medan Hospital, there was a surplus every year below 5% and even decreased in 2018 to less than 100%. The CRR is still decline related costs, tariffs utilization. This study aims analyze tariffs, costs utilization increasing Rate (CRR) at RSU Medan. type of research quantitative qualitative descriptive analytic. population sample were Director, Director Medi...

This paper makes use of finger knuckleprints to propose an efficient biometrics system. Edge based local binary pattern (ELBP) is used to enhance the knuckleprint images. Highly distinctive texture patterns from the enhanced knuckleprint images are extracted for better classification. It has proposed a distance measure between two knuckleprint images. This system has been tested on the largest ...

The authors investigate the resonances of split-ring resonator (SRR) structures experimentally and theoretically. The transmission measurements were performed on a single SRR unit cell and periodic arrays of SRRs. The magnetic response of the SRR structure was demonstrated by comparing the SRRs’ transmission spectra of with that of closed ring resonators (CRR). The surface currents along the SR...

This paper proposes an efficient iris based authentication system. The segmented iris is unwrapped, normalized and enhanced using the proposed local enhancement technique. Occlusion mask determination is performed to detect eyelid, eyelashes and reflections using morphological and filtering operations. Features are extracted and matched from enhanced image using relative intensities of regions ...
