Summary Background The risk of urinary tract cancers, including kidney and bladder was increased in transplant recipients receiving thiopurines. Aim To assess the cancers patients with inflammatory bowel disease ( IBD ) thiopurines CESAME observational cohort. Methods Between May 2004 June 2005, 19 486 , 30.1% whom were thiopurines, enrolled. Median follow‐up 35 months IQR : 29–40). Results Ten six developed respectively cancer. incidence rates cancer 0.48/1000 patient‐years (95% CI...
Abstract Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) constitute the key enabler for programmable electromagnetic propagation environments and are lately being considered as a candidate physical-layer technology demanding connectivity, reliability, localisation, sustainability requirements of next-generation wireless networks. In this paper, we first present deployment scenarios RIS-enabled smart that have been recently designed within ongoing European Union Horizon 2020 RISE-6G project, well...

Aim To report on the efficacy and safety of elective switching from intravenously (IV) to subcutaneously (SC) administered Infliximab (IFX) in patients with immune mediated diseases. Methods Retrospective analysis Crohn’s disease (CD), Ulcerative Colitis (UC), Spondyloarthritis (SpA), Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Psoriatic (PsA) chronic plaque Psoriasis (PsO) who were receiving IFX-IV for maintenance remission tertiary referral centers switched IFX-SC based their physician’s choice. All...
Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RISs) are an emerging technology for future wireless communication systems, enabling improved coverage in energy efficient manner. RISs usually metasurfaces, constituting of two-dimensional arrangements metamaterial elements, whose individual re-sponse is commonly modeled the literature as adjustable phase shifter. However, this model holds only narrowband communications, and when wideband transmissions utilized, one has to account frequency selectivity...

Post-inflammatory polyps [PIPs] are considered as indicators of previous episodes severe inflammation and mucosal ulceration. Inflammatory bowel disease [IBD], namely Crohn's [CD] ulcerative colitis [UC], exhibit a perpetuating, relapsing remitting pattern, PIPs frequent sequela chronicity. The aim this study was to determine whether high PIP burden is associated with more course in patients IBD.This multinational, multicentre, retrospective study. IBD previously diagnosed were retrieved...
The cooperative jamming (CJ) and decode–and–forward (DF) protocols for physical layer security are studied in this paper. We propose a design that aims at maximizing the gap, which is defined as signal–to–noise ratio (SNR) difference between destination an eavesdropper, subject to reliability constraints defining thresholds on received signals' SNR values eavesdropper. A fractional quadratically constrained quadratic program (QCQP) formulated, solved analytically closed–form expressions...
