REACHING MOTHERS AND BABIES WITH EARLY POSTNATAL HOME VISITS: THE IMPLEMENTATION REALITIES OF ACHIEVING HIGH COVERAGE IN LARGE-SCALE PROGRAMS.

Reaching mothers and babies with early postnatal home visits: the implementation realities of achieving high coverage in large-scale programs.

BACKGROUND: Nearly half of births in low-income countries occur without a skilled attendant, and even fewer mothers and babies have postnatal contact with providers who can deliver preventive or curative services that save lives.Community-based maternal and newborn care programs with postnatal home visits have been tested in Bangladesh, Malawi, and

Surface zwitterionization of hemodialysismembranesfor hemocompatibility enhancement and protein-mediated anti-adhesion: A critical review

Extracorporeal membranes have changed significantly over the recent decades since hemodialysis (HD) has extensively been used as a treatment for acute renal failure (ARF) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD).However, platelet consumption, complement cascade activation, plasma protein attachment, and thrombosis are some of the side effects that occur

Uncertainty quantification of machine learning models to improve streamflow prediction under changing climate and environmental conditions

Machine learning (ML) models, and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks in particular, have demonstrated remarkable performance in streamflow prediction and are increasingly being used by the hydrological research community.However, most of these applications do not include uncertainty quantification (UQ).ML Luster Dust models are data driven and
