A Rare Cause of Neonatal Hypotonia: First Case of Autosomal Recessive Fast-Channel Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome Type 1B in Albania

Hypotonia is a concern, with high morbidity and poor outcomes in 10% of neonatal care cases.Neonatal hypotonia presents a diagnostic challenge for neonatologists, as it may be a sign of a central nervous disorder (hypoxic-ischemic insult, intracranial hemorrhage, cerebral palsy), inborn errors of metabolism, a primary neuromuscular disorder, or a g

Contrastive learning with transformer for adverse endpoint prediction in patients on DAPT post-coronary stent implantation

BackgroundEffective management of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) following drug-eluting stent (DES) implantation is crucial for preventing adverse events.Traditional prognostic tools, such as rule-based methods or Cox regression, despite their widespread use and ease, tend to yield moderate predictive accuracy within predetermined timeframes.This

How do unfamiliar environments convey meaning to older people? Urban dimensions of placelessness and attachment

The discussion within gerontology of the relationship between older people and their environment (place attachment and ageing in place in particular) has been based on an assumption of familiarity with place.Yet increasingly older people experience unfamiliar environments.This can be through increased travelling as tourists and visitors to other Mu

Pareto Design of Decoupled Sliding-Mode Controllers for Nonlinear Systems Based on a Multiobjective Genetic Algorithm

This paper presents Pareto design of decoupled sliding-mode controllers based on a multiobjective genetic algorithm for several fourth-order coupled nonlinear systems.In order to achieve an optimum controller, at first, the decoupled sliding mode controller is applied to stablize the fourth-order coupled nonlinear Cutting / Serving Boards systems a
