Anatomical Registration of Implanted Sensors Improves Accuracy of Trunk Tilt Estimates with a Networked Neuroprosthesis

Sensors
For individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCIs) above the midthoracic level, a common complication is the partial or complete loss of trunk stability in the seated position. Functional neuromuscular stimulation (FNS) can restore seated posture and other

Early Body Mass Index z‐Score Change and Resolution of Severe Malnutrition in Children With Sickle Cell Anemia in a Low‐Income Setting: A Prospective Single‐Arm Extension Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) in low‐income settings are at risk of severe malnutrition, but optimal nutritional management has not been established. We evaluated an intensified ready‐to‐use therapeutic food (RUTF) regimen in children with persistent severe malnutrition after initial treatment and assessed whether early ...
