Bayesian network modelling of upper gastrointestinal bleeding [PDF]

, 2013
Bayesian networks are graphical probabilistic models that represent causal and other relationships between domain variables. In the context of medical decision making, these models have been explored to help in medical diagnosis and prognosis.

Autonomous Implants

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
An ideal implant should mimic native tissues such that it can integrate, sense, heal, and continue to function, i.e., be autonomous. Although early, there are good steps taken in this way, e.g., the development of stimuli‐responsive, self‐powering, self‐actuating, self‐healing, self‐regenerating, and self‐aware implants.

Smart Sampling Capsule for Capture and Detection of Enteric Pathogens in the Small Intestine

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
An ingestible smart sampling capsule for capturing asymptomatic enteric pathogens at their primary sites of interaction within the small intestine. This capability enables non‐invasive detection of early pathogen colonization within the gut environment prior to fecal shedding, providing a robust approach for pathogen surveillance and microbiome studies.

The incidence of portal vein thrombosis at liver transplantation [PDF]

, 1992
The incidence of portal vein thrombosis was examined in 885 patients who received orthotopic liver transplantations for various end‐stage liver diseases between 1989 and 1990. The thrombosis was classified into four grades.

GASTROINTESTINAL BLEEDING

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1996
A systemic approach must be taken with both upper and lower gastrointestinal bleeding. The first priority is stabilization. Once this has been achieved, and in patients who present with stable vital signs, a systematic approach to diagnosis and management must be followed.
