Hypertension is one major chronic disease that threatens the health of Chinese people.Resistant hypertension is a special type of hypertension with complex pathogenesis and etiology, which is more harmful since it can increase the probability of cardiovascular disease and poor prognosis, suggesting that it should be a focus of general practitioners
Enhanced Peak Cancellation With Simplified In-Band Distortion Compensation for Massive MIMO-OFDM
This paper presents an enhanced peak cancellation method with simplified Beauty in-band distortion compensation for massive multi-input multi-output (mMIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM).The method compensates an in-band distortion due to peak cancellation by utilizing extra transmit antennas, where a compensation signal is desi
Differences between stereotypical gender and definitional gender in pronominal antecedent retrieval in Brazilian Portuguese
Together with Alves (2019), this paper is part of a research work dedicated to investigating the role of gender cues in pronominal antecedent retrieval in Brazilian Portuguese.The main aim is to determine whether Principle B structural constraints work as an initial filter in pronominal antecedent retrieval in Brazilian Portuguese, or whether gende
