Dog and Pet Supplies cat rabies cases imported from rabies enzootic countries represent a major threat for areas that have acquired rabies-free status and quantitative risk analyses (QRAs) are developed in order to assess this risk of rabies reintroduction through dog and cat movements.Herein we describe a framework to evaluate dog and cat rabies i
Field evaluation of the residual efficacy of new generation insecticides for potential use in indoor residual spray programmes in South Africa
Abstract Background The decreasing residual efficacy of insecticides is an important factor when making decisions on insecticide choice for national malaria control programmes.The major challenge to using chemicals for vector control is the selection for the development of insecticide resistance.Since insecticide resistance has been recorded for mo
Treatment of osteoarthritis of the knee with bracing: a scoping review
Knee osteoarthritis is a leading cause of disability around the world.Knee bracing provides a conservative management option for symptom relief.A variety of different bracing types, manufacturers and products are currently available on the market.The goal of this study is to examine the current state of the literature regarding the treatment of kne
Binary image steganography method based on layered embedding
A non-additive distortion binary image steganography method was proposed which divided the cover image into two sub cover images, updated the distortion through delivering King Adjustable Base influence factor, and used the minimizing distortion codes to achieve message embedding.Compared with the previous additive distortion steganography methods
Optimum Design of Low-Cost Dual-Mode Beam-Steerable Arrays for Customer-Premises Equipment Applications
Two novel designs of dual-mode beam-steerable array antennas are proposed for customer-premises equipment applications.To obtain the optimal distribution of excitations for the arrays, the gain and front-back ratio of the array systems are optimized by using the method of maximum power transmission efficiency.The first design operates at 2.45 GHz a
