COMPLEXITY OF OPTIONS RELATED TO RESTARTING ORAL POLIOVIRUS VACCINE (OPV) IN NATIONAL IMMUNIZATION PROGRAMS AFTER OPV CESSATION [VERSION 1; PEER REVIEW: 1 APPROVED, 2 APPROVED WITH RESERVATIONS]

Complexity of options related to restarting oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) in national immunization programs after OPV cessation [version 1; peer review: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations]

Background: The polio eradication endgame continues to increase in complexity.With polio cases caused by wild poliovirus type 1 and circulating vaccine-derived polioviruses of all three types (1, 2 and 3) reported in 2022, the number, formulation, and use of poliovirus vaccines poses challenges for national immunization programs and vaccine supplie

Signal Retrieval from Non-Sinusoidal Intensity Modulations in X-ray and Neutron Interferometry Using Piecewise-Defined Polynomial Function

Grating-based phase-contrast and dark-field imaging systems create intensity modulations that are usually modeled with sinusoidal functions to extract transmission, differential-phase shift, and scatter information.Under certain system-related conditions, the modulations become non-sinusoidal and cause artifacts in conventional processing.To accoun
