Mathematical models for pain: a systematic review [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 There is no single prevailing theory of pain that explains its origin, qualities, and alleviation. Although many studies have investigated various molecular targets for pain management, few have attempted to examine the etiology or working mechanisms of pain through mathematical or computational techniques.

Pain Intensity Estimation from Mobile Video Using 2D and 3D Facial Keypoints [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Managing post-surgical pain is critical for successful surgical outcomes. One of the challenges of pain management is accurately assessing the pain level of patients. Self-reported numeric pain ratings are limited because they are subjective, can be affected by mood, and can influence the patient's perception of pain when making comparisons.

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.CT of 141 patients with small bowel strangulation (SBS) was reviewed. Mesenteric edema and abnormal bowel wall thickening are prevalent in both non‐necrotic and necrotic SBS, indicating the primary pathology of SBS. While bowel hypo‐enhancement was detected in 76% of patients with necrotic SBS, it appeared in only 51% of those with non‐necrotic SBS ...

How Much Does It Hurt: A Deep Learning Framework for Chronic Pain Score Assessment [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Chronic pain is defined as pain that lasts or recurs for more than 3 to 6 months, often long after the injury or illness that initially caused the pain has healed. The "gold standard" for chronic pain assessment remains self report and clinical assessment via a biopsychosocial interview, since there has been no device that can measure it.

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.This retrospective study investigated risk factors for surgical site infections (SSIs) in right‐sided colon cancer surgeries using intracorporeal anastomosis (IA). The results demonstrated that preoperative oral antibiotics (OA) significantly reduced SSI rates, with OA identified as an independent protective factor, suggesting its beneficial role in ...
