TL;DR: Unmet healthcare needs are influenced by the number of disease by the type of ROK military personnel, and female military personnel are more likely to experience un met healthcare needs than are male military personnel.
Abstract: Introduction The National Statistical Yearbook of Defense 2018 issued by the Republic of Korea (ROK) Ministry of National Defense reported that the number of patients using military hospitals steadily increased from 2008 to 2017. However, in the outpatient clinic statistics for years 2015-2017 from the ROK Armed Forces Medical Command, the amount of medical care received from some medical departments, such as the infection medicine, surgery, and anesthesiology departments, decreased. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to observe the differences in incidence of military personnel's unmet healthcare needs according to number of diseases by type. Materials and methods The study used data from the Military Health Survey, which was conducted from 2014 to 2015 and included 5162 responses from ROK military personnel. The number of diseases by type and unmet healthcare needs were self-reported. A multiple logistic regression analysis was used to examine the validity of the annual disease experience by type and correlations with unmet healthcare needs. Results Of the 5162 military personnel, 25.2% experienced unmet healthcare needs, and the more people with the number of disease by type, the more likely they were to experience unmet healthcare needs (1: 13.4%, 2: 22.9%, 3: 29.2%, 4: 34.5%, 5: 41.4%). The logistic regression analysis also revealed significant differences (1 = REF, 2 odds ratio (OR) = 1.83, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.50-2.24; 3 OR = 2.53, 95% CI: 2.05-3.11, 4 OR = 3.10, 95% CI = 2.49-3.85; ≥5 OR = 3.85, 95% CI = 3.08-4.81). In addition, subgroup analysis showed that female military personnel are more likely to experience unmet healthcare needs than are male military personnel. We have also confirmed that working areas and private insurance can affect unmet healthcare needs. Conclusion This study suggests that unmet healthcare needs are influenced by the number of disease by the type of ROK military personnel. It is therefore necessary to strive to reduce the number of military personnel who experience unmet healthcare needs through this data.

TL;DR: The strategic relations between South Korea and the United States started with the opening of the Cold War, and the two countries maintained cordial bilateral relations throughout the cold war era as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The strategic relations between South Korea and the United States started with the opening of the Cold War, and the two countries maintained cordial bilateral relations throughout the Cold War era. They are still seeking to reassure each other by announcing statements of firm resolution, discussing all bilateral issues and consulting one another on decisions beforehand.

TL;DR: The bit error rate analysis obtained in this paper facilitates predicting the performance of various space-frequency pre-filtering schemes without massive simulations.
Abstract: We analyze the performance of joint space-frequency pre-filtering and equalization techniques for downlink multi-carrier code division multiple access in terms of average bit error rate performance. Several linear power allocation strategies combined with single-user equalization schemes are compared with a joint pre-filtering with an equal power constraint at the base station and maximal ratio combining at the mobile terminals. Our bit error rate analysis obtained in this paper facilitates predicting the performance of various space-frequency pre-filtering schemes without massive simulations.

TL;DR: There is no significant relationship between unilateral lower limb swelling and the presence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in stroke patients, and there is no correlation between lower limb swellings and functional outcome that are frequently used in a rehabilitation unit.
Abstract: • There is no significant relationship between unilateral lower limb swelling and the presence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in stroke patients. • In stroke patients with diagnosed DVT, there is no correlation between lower limb swelling and functional outcome that are frequently used in a rehabilitation unit.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors have outlined why it has been suggested to initiate GNSS surveying for monitoring the changes in the terrestrial water storage (TWS) in the Congo Basin.
Abstract: Monitoring terrestrial water storage (TWS) is critical for global hydrological cycles and important to sustain diverse sectors, such as agriculture, manufacturing, and other industries in many countries. Yet, we have very little knowledge of the spatiotemporal dynamics of TWS changes in the Congo River, which is the world’s second largest river in size (~3.7 million km2), and its discharge is second only to that of the Amazon River (~40,600 m3s−1). Temporal variations in the Earth’s gravitational field likely could be attributed mainly to changes in the TWS in tropical basins. Therefore, the changes in TWS can be monitored based on the Earth’s gravitational field. Although using the Global Navigational Satellite System (GNSS) to measure the gravitational field is prevalent in many regions, this approach has not been considered in the Congo Basin, which is a void. In this paper, we have outlined why it has been suggested to initiate GNSS surveying for monitoring the changes in the TWS in the Congo Basin.
