Using the blood coagulation factors as a predictor component of the occupational vibration exposure

open access: yesInternational Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2019
Background: Exposure to hand–arm vibrations higher than permissible standard rates can have destructing effects on workers' health. Pneumatic hammers are among the tools that are used in civil and industrial projects, transferring high vibration ...

Highly Repeatable Fibrous Crack‐Based Strain Sensor for Multichannel Continuous Tremor Monitoring in Parkinson's Disease and Essential Tremor

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study proposes a patch‐type tremor monitoring system based on high‐repeatable fibrous crack‐based strain sensor, capable of simultaneously measuring tremor in multiple locations such as thumb, index, and wrist. Through clinical trials involving Parkinson's disease and essential tremor patients, the proposed system demonstrates its potential as a ...

Drop‐Location‐Insensitive Droplet‐Based Electricity Generator Using Polydimethylsiloxane Slippery Covalently Attached Liquid Coatings

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Drop‐location sensitivity remains a key barrier to practical droplet‐based electricity generators (DEGs). Here, a polydimethylsiloxane slippery covalently attached liquid (PDMS‐SCAL)‐coated interface promotes droplet sliding instead of splitting or bouncing, allowing stable electricity generation from randomly falling raindrops. The resulting PDMS‐SCAL‐

Paraborg: Paramedic Cyborg Insects for In Situ Emergency Drug‐Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work introduces Paraborg, a human‐supervised paramedic cyborg‐insect platform that combines controllable locomotion, onboard imaging, and an auto‐injection mechanism for in situ drug‐delivery. By demonstrating reliable navigation, target stabilization, injector launch, and multi‐insect teamwork, the study extends cyborg insects from survivor ...

Wood Density Impact on Hand-Arm Vibration

open access: yesCroatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2012
Despite technological advancements in machinery for timber harvesting, chainsaws are fre­quently used in forest operations. In Austria 85% of the wood volume harvested (15 million m³) are cut by chainsaws.

VlPAG/DRN Microglia Drive Neuropathic Pain‐Induced Depression via a Defined Neuroimmune Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Peripheral nerve injury (SNI) induces neuropathic pain, activates midbrain microglia, and triggers an NLRP3–IL‐1β–dependent inflammatory cascade. IL‐1β signals through IL‐1R1 on vlPAG/DRN VGLUT2+ neurons (vlPAG/DRNGlu), inducing hyperexcitability and driving the vlPAG/DRNGlu→BNSTGABA circuit to produce the affective component of neuropathic pain ...

Frequency-Range-Specific Hand–Arm Vibration Exposure and the Risk of Musculoskeletal Disorders of the Upper Extremities: The German Hand–Arm Vibration Study

open access: yesVibration
To quantify the effect of frequency-range-specific hand–arm vibration (FRS-HAV) exposure on the risk of musculoskeletal disorders of the upper limb (UMSDs), we performed an analysis among the study sample of the German Hand–Arm Vibration Study. In total,
