This study examines the performance of a GaN HEMT with a 150 nm gate length, fabricated on silicon carbide, across various operational modes, including direct current (DC), radio frequency (RF), and small-signal parameters. The evaluation of DC, RF, and small-signal performance under diverse bias conditions remains a relatively unexplored area of study for this specific technology. The DC characteristics revealed relatively little I at zero gate and drain voltages, and the current grew as V increased.

Biomimetic restorative treatments in pediatric dentistry increase the longevity of the restoration compared to traditional methods and aim to preserve the natural tooth structure. Prefabricated zirconia crowns have been developed as aesthetic alternatives to stainless steel crowns for full-coronal restorations of primary teeth. This study aimed to compare the fracture resistance and microleakage of two different posterior zirconia crown brands-NuSmile (USA) and ProfZrCrown (Turkey)-cemented with either conventional glass ionomer cement (GIC) or resin-modified glass ionomer cement (RMGIC).

Background: Pet bird rearing has been increasing over the last decade in Bangladesh. These pet bird species suffer from diverse diseases that are treated with different antimicrobials, contributing to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the country.

Objectives: The current study aimed to determine the occurrence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli from cloacal samples of pet birds.

Acute malnutrition (AM) in children under five is a significant global health concern. Community-based management of AM (CMAM) with provision of specially formulated foods (SFFs) is recommended for treating moderate (MAM) and uncomplicated severe (SAM) cases in outpatient settings. Integrating nutrition counseling and cooking demonstrations (NC&CD) into CMAM programs can improve caregiver knowledge and practices.
