Evaluating Low Back Pain Patients for Prolapsed Interverbral Disc in a Kenyan Teaching Hospital
Background Accurate evaluation of low back pain is essential for its rational manage-ment. The extent of use of clinical and imaging findings in identification of prolapsed intervertebral disk varies between centers. In Kenya, the diagnostic procedure

Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

Data-driven subgrouping of patient trajectories with chronic diseases: Evidence from low back pain [PDF]
Clinical data informs the personalization of health care with a potential for more effective disease management. In practice, this is achieved by subgrouping, whereby clusters with similar patient characteristics are identified and then receive customized treatment plans with the goal of targeting subgroup-specific disease dynamics.

Multi‐Scale Modeling of a 3D Soft Magnetoelectric Patch for Wireless Nerve Stimulation
Core‐shell, magnetoelectric nanoparticles (MENPs) can serve as wireless electric nano‐sources, thanks to their ability to generate high levels of electricity, when stimulated by a human‐safe external magnetic field. By combining MENPs with soft, biocompatible polymeric matrices and optimizing its composite configuration and electrical behavior via ...

Effectiveness of Lumbar Support in Management of Low Back Pain: A Systematic Review
Background: The lumbar support belt has been used routinely in the management of low back pain. However, conflicting evidence arose as to whether or not lumbar support belt usage was more effective than usual care.

In this work, wide‐field (>1 mm2) frequency‐domain thermoreflectance (FDTR) hyperspectral imaging is used to image subsurface indium bump bonds 50 µm below the surface. Thermal analysis with Monte Carlo uncertainty propagation is used to evaluate bump quality, while a trained deep neural network (can rapidly reconstruct bump geometry contact area maps.

Diffusion-Based Semantic Segmentation of Lumbar Spine MRI Scans of Lower Back Pain Patients [PDF]
This study introduces a diffusion-based framework for robust and accurate segmenton of vertebrae, intervertebral discs (IVDs), and spinal canal from Magnetic Resonance Imaging~(MRI) scans of patients with low back pain (LBP), regardless of whether the scans are T1w or T2-weighted.
