Autonomous Cave Surveying with an Aerial Robot [PDF]
, 2020 This paper presents a method for cave surveying in total darkness using an autonomous aerial vehicle equipped with a depth camera for mapping, downward-facing camera for state estimation, and forward and downward lights. Traditional methods of cave surveying are labor-intensive and dangerous due to the risk of hypothermia when collecting data over ...

Subnormothermic Perfusion in the Isolated Rat Liver Preserves the Antioxidant Glutathione and Enhances the Function of the Ubiquitin Proteasome System. [PDF]
, 2016 The reduction of oxidative stress is suggested to be one of the main mechanisms to explain the benefits of subnormothermic perfusion against ischemic liver damage. In this study we investigated the early cellular mechanisms induced in isolated rat livers

Therapeutic hypothermia: quantification of the transition of core body temperature using the flexible mixture bent-cable model for longitudinal data [PDF]
, 2012 By reducing core body temperature, T_c, induced hypothermia is a therapeutic tool to prevent brain damage resulting from physical trauma. However, all physiological systems begin to slow down due to hypothermia that in turn can result in increased risk of mortality.

Hypothermia-induced acute kidney injury in an elderly patient
The Korean Journal of Internal Medicine, 2014 Hypothermia, defined as an unintentional decline in the core body temperature to below 35℃, is a life-threatening condition. Patients with malnutrition and diabetes mellitus as well as those of advanced age are at high risk for accidental hypothermia ...

The signaling signature of the neurotensin type 1 receptor with endogenous ligands [PDF]
Besserer-Offroy \'E, et al. (2017). Eur J Pharmacol. 805 (2017)
1-13, 2018 The human neurotensin 1 receptor (hNTS1) is a G protein-coupled receptor involved in many physiological functions, including analgesia, hypothermia, and hypotension. To gain a better understanding of which signaling pathways or combination of pathways are linked to NTS1 activation and function, we investigated the ability of activated hNTS1, which was ...

Nonautonomous Dynamics of Acute Cell Injury [PDF]
Phys. Rev. E 100, 052407 (2019), 2018 Medical conditions due to acute cell injury, such as stroke and heart attack, are of tremendous impact and have attracted huge amounts of research effort. The biomedical research that seeks cures for these conditions has been dominated by a qualitative, inductive mindset.
