Towards Generalizable Surgical Activity Recognition Using Spatial Temporal Graph Convolutional Networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Modeling and recognition of surgical activities poses an interesting research problem. Although a number of recent works studied automatic recognition of surgical activities, generalizability of these works across different tasks and different datasets remains a challenge.

Metabolic changes during cardiac regeneration in the axolotl

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The axolotl is a prominent model organism of heart regeneration due to its ability to anatomically and functionally repair the heart after an injury that mimics human myocardial infarction. In humans, such an injury leads to permanent scarring. Cardiac regeneration has been linked to metabolism and the oxygenation state, but so far,

Targeted Muscle Reinnervation—an Up-to-Date Review: Evidence, Indications, and Technique

open access: yesArchives of Plastic Surgery
Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) is a surgical technique originally created to improve prosthetic function following upper extremity amputation. TMR has since been shown to be effective in the prevention and treatment of chronic postamputation phantom

A Realistic Surgical Simulator for Non-Rigid and Contact-Rich Manipulation in Surgeries with the da Vinci Research Kit [PDF]

open access: yes2024 21st International Conference on Ubiquitous Robots (UR), New York, NY, USA, 2024, pp. 64-70
Realistic real-time surgical simulators play an increasingly important role in surgical robotics research, such as surgical robot learning and automation, and surgical skills assessment. Although there are a number of existing surgical simulators for research, they generally lack the ability to simulate the diverse types of objects and contact-rich ...

Effects of life history strategies and habitats on limb regeneration in plethodontid salamanders

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Salamanders are the only tetrapods that exhibit the ability to fully regenerate limbs. The axolotl, a neotenic salamander, has become the model organism for regeneration research. Great advances have been made providing a detailed understanding of the morphological and molecular processes involved in limb regeneration.
