Powered air-purifying respirators (PAPR) are a high level of respiratory personal protective equipment. Like all mechanical devices, they are vulnerable to failure. The precise physiological consequen…
Over the past few years, automatic recognition of human interactions has drawn significant attention from researchers working in the field of Artificial Intelligence (AI). And feature extraction is on…
COVID-19 pandemic has affected the population worldwide, evidencing new challenges and opportunities for several kinds of emergent and existing technologies. Social Assistive Robotics could be a poten…
PURPOSE: An understanding of the repeatability of measured results is important for both the atlas-based and voxel-based morphometry (VBM) methods of magnetic resonance (MR) brain volumetry. However, …
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: This paper presents an evaluation of a modified lateral suprascapular nerve block with easy orientation, low risk of displacement of the needle, and with an assessment of 2 …
Lymphatic malformation is a developmental error usually noticed at birth or in early childhood. Lesions of the upper leg and lower trunk are the most difficult to remove, because they are often the la…
We report an improved tool for acquiring temperature-resolved fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra of complex polymer systems undergoing thermal transitions, illustrated by application to severa…
PURPOSE: To avoid motion artifacts, medical imaging devices are often synchronized with the patient's cardiac motion. Today, the ECG is used to determine the heartbeat and therewith trigger the imagin…
The quality of human islets is one of the factors decisive for the success of human islet transplantation. Several parameters have been proposed to characterize islet quality, but none of them has bee…
UNLABELLED: Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) is an electrophysical modality used for pain management. This study investigated the dose response of different TENS intensities on exper…
The accumulation of lead in several bones of Wistar rats with time was determined and compared for the different types of bones. Two groups were studied: a control group (n = 20), not exposed to lead …
Ten formalin-fixed atherosclerotic carotid plaques removed by endarterectomy were molded into rectangular agar blocks containing fiducial markers on the top surface. Plaque and fiducial markers were i…
A method for the classification of electrophoretic patterns is described and tested on a data set representing ten wheat varieties. The method attempts to match each electropherogram to each variety b…
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Preliminary reports suggest that central stimulation may enhance the effect of conventional physical therapies after stroke. This pilot study examines the safety and methodolog…
We investigated the effects of amino acid infusion on regional and whole body glucose metabolism in 16 normal volunteers, age 32 to 70 years. Ten subjects underwent 140-minute euglycemic insulin infus…
DNA ploidy was investigated by flow cytometry (FC) and image analysis (IA) in paraffin-embedded tissue sections from 36 stromal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. The results of both techniques wer…
Microsaccades are tiny, involuntary eye movements that occur during fixation, and they are necessary to human sight to maintain a sharp image and correct the effects of other fixational movements. Res…
Atypical Parkinsonism associated with white matter pathology has been described in cerebrovascular diseases, mitochondrial cytopathies, osmotic demyelinating disorders, leukoencephalopathies leukodyst…
Muscle fatigue is associated with a higher risk of workplace injury, in particular during repetitive tasks. This study aimed to identify the effect of a complex force-time history (a task with multipl…
We analyzed genetic changes in condylomas (four cases), vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia I-III (VIN I-III, eleven cases), and primary vulvar squamous cell carcinomas (VSCC, ten cases) by high-resoluti…
