Ageing and Driving Performance in the UK Using Normal Mixture Model Cluster Analysis Technique

Transactions on Transport Sciences, 2023
This research addresses the issue of an individual's ability to drive and especially of those individuals that are questionably demented (dementia is suspected) or are in a state of very mild dementia and are therefore the most difficult to identify.

Blueprint for a Simulation Framework to Increase Driver Training Safety in North America: Case Study

Safety, 2021
Despite numerous recent advances in the classroom and in-vehicle driver training and education over the last quarter-century, traffic accidents remain a leading cause of mortality for young adults—particularly, those between the ages of 16 and 19 ...

Driving Vigilance Simulator Test

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1990
Drivers suffering from sleepiness at the wheel run the risk of being involved in car accidents. To evaluate whether objective data of driving performance can be assessed in patients with excessive tendency of falling asleep at the wheel, two test versions of a computerized driving program were created to fit an advanced driving simulator.

Driving with Hemianopia VIII: Effects of a Vibro-Tactile Assistance System on Safety and Gaze Behavior in Pedestrian Crossing Situations

Safety, 2021
People with homonymous visual field defects (HVFDs), the loss of vision in the same half of the visual field in both eyes, are permitted to drive in some jurisdictions. However, the HVFD may cause difficulties in detecting hazards approaching on the side

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
