Application Research of Microstructured Flexible Sensors in Rehabilitative Wearable Sensing

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flexible sensors enable the continuous, real‐time monitoring of the physiological and movement signals of patients, providing data support for precise rehabilitation strategies and playing a crucial role in rehabilitation medicine. However, traditional rigid sensors are often incompatible with dynamic body contours due to their high material ...

Pre‐ and Post‐Interventional Hemodynamic Characterization of the Femoropopliteal Artery Using Vector Flow Imaging in Peripheral Arterial Occlusive Disease

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The femoropopliteal (FP) artery is the most frequently revascularized segment in peripheral artery disease (PAD), followed by the iliac segment. Wall shear stress (WSS) is a key local factor implicated in both atherosclerotic plaque formation and restenosis after angioplasty.

Factors Influencing Sport‐Induced Bleeding in Patients With Haemophilia Without Inhibitors: A Single Centre Retrospective Study of People Born in the 2000s

Haemophilia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Recent advances in prophylaxis with clotting factor concentrates have enabled people with haemophilia (PwH) to participate in high‐intensity exercises; however, this does not preclude them from sports‐induced bleeding (SIB). Aim To investigate factors influencing the recent occurrence of SIB among PwH.
