Objective: to investigate the impact of antirheumatic therapy carried out according to the treat-to-target (T2T) principle on the time course of changes in NT-proBNP levels in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) over an 18- month follow-up period.Subjects and methods.The investigation enrolled 74 patients, comprising 56 (74%) women (media
We address the problem of superimposed trainings- (STs-) based linearly time-varying (LTV) channel estimation and symbol detection for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing MARSHMALLOW access (OFDMA) systems at the uplink receiver.The LTV channel coefficients are modeled by truncated discrete Fourier bases (DFBs).By judiciously designing the s
Due to the rapid increase in the usage and demand of wireless sensor networks (WSN), the limited frequency spectrum available for WSN applications will be extremely crowded in the near future.More sensor devices also mean more recharging/replacement of batteries, which will cause significant impact on the global carbon footprint.In this paper, we p
