Linea alba 3D morphometric variability by CT scan exploration [PDF]
Purpose: The width of the Linea alba, which is often gauged by inter-rectus distance, is a key risk factor for incisional hernia and recurrence. Previous studies provided limited descriptions with no consideration for width, location variability, or curvature.

Aortic frequency response determination via bioimpedance plethysmography [PDF]
Objective: Arterial stiffness is an important marker to predict cardio vascular events. Common measurement techniques to determine the condition of the aorta are limited to the acquisition of the arterial pulse wave at the extremities. The goal of this work is to enable non-invasive measurements of the aortic pulse wave velocity, instead. An additional

Management of Inguinal Hernia in a Tertiary Center, a two-year Retrospective Study.
Background: Inguinal hernia repair remains the most common surgery performed by general surgeons worldwide. There is a lot of published data on the surgical management of inguinal hernias in our country. This study aims to describe our experiences in the

Overcoming the Force Limitations of Magnetic Robotic Surgery: Impact-based Tetherless Suturing [PDF]
Magnetic robotics obviate the physical connections between the actuators and end effectors resulting in ultra-minimally invasive surgeries. Even though such a wireless actuation method is highly advantageous in medical applications, the trade-off between the applied force and miniature magnetic end effector dimensions has been one of the main ...

MTSS2‐Related Disorder: Refining the Phenotype in Four New Cases and Literature Review
ABSTRACT MTSS2 encodes a protein highly expressed in the central nervous system, with a crucial role in neurodevelopment. The de novo recurrent variant c.2011C>T (p.Arg671Trp) was first identified in 2022 as cause of Intellectual Developmental Disorder with ocular anomalies and distinctive facial features (OMIM#620086).

Amyand’s hernia : a case report [PDF]
The presence of vermiform appendix, whether normal or inflamed in the inguinal hernia, is referred to as Amyand’s hernia. This is rare occurring in about 1% of inguinal hernias in adults.

Hérnia de Amyand: um achado inesperado em hérnia inguinal [PDF]
The Amyand hernia was first described by the French surgeon Claudius Amyand in 1735, when an 11-year-old child underwent appendectomy due to fecal fistula in the inguinal region.

Crossover from Reptation to Rouse dynamics in the Extended Rubinstein-Duke Model [PDF]
The competition between reptation and Rouse Dynamics is incorporated in the Rubinstein-Duke model for polymer motion by extending it with sideways motions, which cross barriers and create or annihilate hernias. Using the Density-Matrix Renormalization-Group Method as solver of the Master Equation, the renewal time and the diffusion coefficient are ...
