Background: Evidence is limited on health benefits from quality improvement of primary healthcare (PHC) in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).This study investigated whether increasing PHC quality in Brazil with highly-skilled health professionals and integrated community health workers (CHWs) was associated with reductions in hospitalization
Abstract This paper quantitatively explores the regulatory effects of rice husk ash content, polypropylene fiber, and steel fiber volume fractions on the mechanical properties of hybrid Fiber reinforced concrete (HFRC) through a series of orthogonal design experiments.Using the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) technique, the dynamic mechanical b
This paper presents a new double-flush riveting process to fabricate flat lap joints that can be easily integrated in progressive or transfer multistage tool systems.The process is based on a punching-compression sequence and the design methodology combines experimentation and finite element modeling followed by destructive peel testing.Special emp
Whereas most of studies investigating relationship between oral health and atherosclerosis have focused on periodontitis, very few of them were examined about occlusal status of natural teeth which possibly influence dietary habit.The primary aim of this cross-sectional study was to investigate the association between the occlusal support of poster
This paper aims to explore the possibility of utilizing vision transformers (ViTs) for on-edge medical diagnostics by experimenting with the Kvasir-Capsule image classification dataset, Western Show Saddles a large-scale image dataset of gastrointestinal diseases.Quantization techniques made available through TensorFlow Lite (TFLite), including pos
