Introduction Non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (hereinafter referred to as “bronchiectasis”) is a severe chronic respiratory disease characterized by permanent dilation of the airways, recurrent infection, persistent pulmonary epithelium damage, and inflammation.1 The burden of bronchiectasis on patients is profound, with most suffering from daily symptoms of cough, sputum production, and intermittent exacerbations, ultimately leading to respiratory failure and diminished quality of life.2...

AbstractThe full-length prefusion-stabilized SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) is the principal antigen of COVID-19 vaccines. Vaccine efficacy has been impacted by emerging variants of concern that accumulate most of the sequence modifications in the immunodominant S1 subunit. S2, in contrast, is the most evolutionarily conserved region of the spike and can elicit broadly neutralizing and protective antibodies. Yet, S2’s usage as an alternative vaccine strategy is hampered by its general instability.

AbstractIn order to facilitate the analysis and processing of optical signals, an FPGA-based CCD signal acquisition and data transmission system is designed in this work. The system uses an FPGA as the main control device, the TCD1304DG/AP chip as the optical signal detector, and the CYUSB3KIT-003 development board product by Cypress for data transmission. Verilog and Python languages are employed for modular design and on-board verification.

IntroductionThe specific weight of tourism as an economic reality forces administrations to design adequate land planning (UNEP, 2005; Cabezas Hernández and Leal-Solís, 2021). Planning implies coordinating chosen and designed behaviors (Leal-Solís and Robina-Ramírez, 2022), and influences how tourism develops and how its benefits and impacts are distributed (McLoughlin and Hanrahan, 2021).
