Screening tools for mental health disorders improve detection at a primary health care (PHC) level. However, many people with mental health conditions do not seek care because of a lack of knowledge about mental health, stigma about mental illness and a
The short Form Health Survey (SF-36): Indicates overall health status; it aims to assess the impact of clinical and social interventions on quality of life in several domains. The SF-36 has shown a reliability of 0.90 [49]. Health Literacy Questionnaire (HLQ): The HLQ examines an individua...
closed form expressions for capacity or bit-error probability are often unattainable; effects of realistic signal processing algorithms on the performance of practical communication systems rather have to be studied in simulation environments. The Vienna LTE-A Uplink Simulator is a 3GPP LTE-A standard...
To better serve the VUEs, using MRNs has been proposed and studied in [5-7,12,26-29]. The idea of using mobile devices to relay information to UEs outside the coverage of a BS is not new. Mobile devices can form a mobilead hocnetwork (MANET) to enable communications between mobile ...
metabolites and energy (GO:0006091), etc. (Fig.4). The process of photophosphorylation was closely enriched by GO term analysis, which indicated the photochemical reaction completed through the photosystem, and transformed light energy into chemical energy on the thylakoid membrane to form ATP and ...

Designed with a different conception, some walking robots have close-loop mechanical legs. With the reasonable configuration and size of the link mechanism, the mechanical leg generates the trajectory that fits for walking. Two or more legs share the common trunk link and crank link to form leg...
Continuous quality improvement (CQI) methods are widely used in healthcare; however, the effectiveness of the methods is variable, and evidence about the extent to which contextual and other factors modify effects is limited. Investigating the relationsh
