Information about the effectiveness of oral antivirals in preventing short- and long-term COVID-19-related outcomes setting Omicron variant transmission COVID-19 vaccination is limited.
ABSTRACT Background Information about the effectiveness of oral antivirals in preventing short- and long-term COVID-19-related outcomes during Omicron surge is limited. We sought to determine nirmatrelvir-ritonavir molnupiravir for outpatient treatment COVID-19. Methods conducted three retrospective target trial emulation studies comparing matched patient cohorts who received versus no treatment, Veterans Health Administration (VHA). Participants were VHA care at risk severe COVID-19 tested...
COVID-19 has been linked to the development of many post-COVID-19 conditions (PCCs) after acute infection. Limited information is available on effectiveness oral antivirals used treat in preventing PCCs.
This paper presents a novel automated test case generation framework leveraging deep reinforcement learning (DRL) for chip verification. The addresses the growing complexity in modern designs where traditional verification methods must help achieve comprehensive coverage efficiently. Our approach implements custom Q-network architecture optimized processing feedback and generating vectors, incorporating an innovative reward mechanism that balances optimization with simulation efficiency....
Monovalent COVID-19 vaccines targeting the XBB.1.5 Omicron variant were introduced in September 2023. In absence of randomized controlled trials demonstrating their efficacy, information on real-world vaccine effectiveness (VE) is needed. To determine VE and extent to which it declines over time. Target trial emulation. U.S. Veterans Health Administration. Eligible recipients matched 1:1 unvaccinated persons 7 sequential biweekly with enrollment from 2 October 2023 through 3 January 2024....
Importance Several pharmacotherapies have been authorized to treat nonhospitalized persons with symptomatic COVID-19. Longitudinal information on the use of these therapies is needed. Objective To analyze trends and factors associated prescription outpatient COVID-19 within Veterans Health Administration (VHA). Design, Setting, Participants This cohort study evaluated veterans in VHA care who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 from January 2022 through 2023 using linked Community Care Medicare...
Importance SARS-CoV-2, influenza, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) contribute to many hospitalizations deaths each year. Understanding relative disease severity can help inform vaccination guidance. Objective To compare of COVID-19, RSV among US veterans. Design, Setting, Participants This retrospective cohort study analyzed national Veterans Health Administration electronic health record data nonhospitalized veterans who underwent same-day testing for RSV, were diagnosed with a single...
Abstract Background Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been linked to the development of post–COVID-19 conditions (PCCs). We investigated whether severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection increases risk selected PCCs or death up 1 year after infection, separately in wild-type (WT), Alpha-transition, Delta, and Omicron eras by vaccination status. Methods used health records Veterans Health Administration emulate a hypothetical target trial SARS-CoV-2 versus...
Nirmatrelvir-ritonavir is recommended for persons at risk severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) but remains underutilized. Information on which eligible groups are likely to benefit from treatment needed.
Importance Older adults and individuals with medical comorbidities are at increased risk for severe COVID-19. Several pharmacotherapies demonstrated to reduce the of COVID-19–related hospitalization death have been authorized use. Objective To describe factors associated receipt outpatient COVID-19 in Veterans Affairs (VA) health care system. Design, Settings, Participants This cohort study assessed veterans who tested positive SARS-CoV-2 during January February 2022. The setting was VA...
Background Widowhood is one of the most serious issues affecting mental health older persons. China currently has tens millions widowed adult, which a huge group. It great significance to study impacts widowhood on their and put forward some measures for improvement. Method We used Family Panel Studies (CFPS) data in 2020, included 4,184 adults. Linear regression examine relationship among widowhood, health, social capital. Results Both short-term medium- long-term lead significant increase...
Abstract Geographic variation in hardship, especially health-related was identified prior to and during the pandemic, but we do not know whether this is consistent among Veterans Health Administration (VHA)–enrolled veterans, who reported markedly high rates of financial hardship despite general veteran-specific federal policy efforts aimed at reducing hardship. In a nationwide, regionally stratified sample VHA-enrolled examined prevalence pandemic varied by US Census region. We found...
Physical unclonable function (PUF) is a reliable physical security primitive. The Weak PUF and Strong are two well-known topologies. can be used to authenticate protect intellectual property on FPGA chips. Classic designs, like arbiter PUF, hard implement severely threatened by the machine learning based modeling attacks. In this work, we propose new combining with obfuscation logic. Experiment results 28 nm show that resistance attack good hardware overhead small.
Automated fault localization (FL) techniques collect runtime information as input data and then analyze to identify the relationship between program statements failures. They usually take advantages of statistics develop a suspiciousness evaluation methodology (e.g., spectrum-based formulas deep neural network models) by exploring underlying correlation rooted in data. Thus, quality is critical for FL. In actual process development, developers seek generate adequate test cases testing...
The Omicron variant is characterized by striking infectivity and antibody evasion. analysis of BA.2 infection risk factors limited among geriatric individuals understanding these would promote improvement in the public health system reduction mortality. Therefore, our research investigated for discriminating severe/critical from mild/moderate patients. Baseline characteristics enrolled patients (aged over 60 years) with infections were analyzed. A logistic regression was conducted to...
Abstract Commodity index rolling is treated as a natural experiment and an event study of order flow costs in wide array futures markets conducted. The spread between nearby deferred prices decreases significantly the early growth phases financialization (1991–2011), with spreads reversing back after completed. Spread impacts disappear post‐financialization period (2012–2019). We argue that dramatic increase supply liquidity brought on by transition to electronic trading commodity primarily...
In the construction of Shenzhen–Zhongshan Link, a temporary anchorage system, distributed uniformly along pipe wall, has been employed. To assess safety and reliability this combined method utilizing numerical analysis model experiments was applied to study system tension rods. Firstly, an overall caisson segment based on GINA rebound force established analyze stress state entire system. Secondly, comprehensive experiment verification were conducted for single tensioning revealing its...
