Double-blind randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are viewed as the golden standard of drug research in Western medicine.However, RCTs are far from "golden" in many respects.They are impractical for many therapies, such as for surgeries and complex lifestyle changes.They encourage a one-size-fits-all approach to medical treatment that fails to addre
Advanced synaptic devices and their applications in biomimetic sensory neural system
ABSTRACT: Human nervous system, which is composed of neuron and synapse networks, is capable of processing information in taylor te400 a plastic, data-parallel, fault-tolerant, and energy-efficient approach.Inspired by the ingenious working mechanism of this miraculous biological data processing system, scientists have been devoting great efforts t
Three-Phase Handover Management and Access Point Transition Scheme for Dynamic Load Balancing in Hybrid LiFi/WiFi Networks
Since LiFi and WiFi do not interfere with one another, a LiFi/WiFi hybrid network may provide superior performance to existing wireless options.With a large number of users and constant changes, a network can easily become overloaded, leading to slowdowns and fluctuations in data transfer speeds.Handover (HO) increases significantly with an increas
Portal vein tumour thrombosis radiotherapy improves the treatment outcomes of immunotherapy plus bevacizumab in hepatocellular carcinoma: a multicentre real-world analysis with propensity score matching
BackgroundThis study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequential immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) plus bevacizumab therapy after radiotherapy for portal vein tumour thrombosis (PVTT) in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).MethodsRetrospective here data were collected from 113 patients with HCC with PVTT.Patients in the PVTT
