Children and providers’ perspectives on once-weekly rifapentine and isoniazid TB preventive therapy by A.J. Marthinus, D.T. Wademan, Z. Saule, Y. Hirsch-Moverman, L. Viljoen, J. Winckler, L. van der Laan, M. Palmer, S.L. Barnabas, R. Boyd, A.C. Hesseling, G. Hoddinott

“…The long duration and pill burden of the 6-month once-daily isoniazid regimen (6H) pose significant barriers to completion. We aimed to understand children’s, caregivers’, and healthcare providers’ experiences of the 12-week once-weekly rifapentine and isoniazid (3HP) regimen using a dispersible tablet formulation in South Africa. …”

GPS signal fast acquisition algorithm using differential code and block processing techniques by HUANG Lei, ZHANG Qi-shan, KOU Yan-hong

“…A novel GPS signal acquisition algorithm using differential C/A codes and block processing techniques was proposed.It was integrated with the advantages of serial correlation method in the time domain,differential digital matched filter method and block processing techniques in the frequency domain,and realized a good compromise be-tween acquisition time and resources consumption,which not only improved the acquisition speed but also reduced the hardware consumption while maintaining an identical processing gain.The experiment results show the algorithm can work well.…”
