Comparative trend analysis of gunshot injuries and motor vehicle crashes at the KATH Emergency Department

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2013
Motor vehicle crashes are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries. Injuries resulting from fire arms were the second leading cause of death in the US in 2003. In Ghana, motor vehicle crashes (MVC) are a common cause of injury and

Dynamics and thermodynamics of the fast and slow Madden–Julian Oscillation

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
The results of this study highlight the MJO as a complex phenomenon, the behavior of which is driven by an interplay of thermodynamic and dynamic processes. The MJO's distinct speeds are controlled by different mechanisms: slow MJOs propagate eastward primarily via horizontal moisture advection, fast MJOs by vertical moisture advection.

Analysis of maintaining human maximal voluntary contraction control strategies through the power grip task in isometric contraction

open access: yesScientific Reports
Power grip force is used as a representative indicator of the ability of the human neuromuscular system. However, people maintain the power grip force via different control strategies depending on the visual feedback that shows the magnitude of the force,

An Ergonomic Customizable Soft Robotic Glove Toward Personalized Hand Rehabilitation

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Soft robotic gloves for hand rehabilitation are often limited by poor fit and uneven pressure on the fingers. Here, the authors report an ergonomic all‐fabric glove whose dual‐action actuators are tailored to individual finger geometry by CNC heat sealing, with symmetrical chambers that distribute interface pressure more evenly. Weighing only 90 g, the

Presence of Nationally Banned Carbamates and Organophosphate Pesticides in Wild Carnivores, Southeastern Brazil

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As top predators, terrestrial carnivores face great risk of pesticide exposure and serve as sentinels of environmental contamination. Additionally, terrestrial carnivores are frequently threatened by intentional or secondary poisoning with highly toxic compounds, such as carbamates and organophosphates.

Role of maraviroc and/or rapamycin in the liver of IL10 KO mice with frailty syndrome.

open access: yesPLoS ONE
Cellular senescence and low-grade inflammation favor the acceleration of aging. The liver is an essential metabolic organ because changes related to its function are related to age-related diseases. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects

Impacts to the mountain‐valley circulation from the 2023 annular solar eclipse

open access: yesWeather, EarlyView.
In October 2023, as part of the Nationwide Eclipse Ballooning Project (NEBP), faculty and students from the University of North Dakota (UND) in coordination with Pueblo Community College Southwest collected weather observations during an annular solar eclipse colloquially known as a ‘ring of fire’ eclipse.

Host Cell Protein MCM7 Interacts with NP1 of Minute Virus of Canines and Facilitates Viral DNA Replication

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Minute virus of canines (MVC), which is a member of the Bocaparvovirus genus, is a non-enveloped, single-stranded DNA virus that causes respiratory and gastrointestinal disease in canines, as well as causing infertility and fetal death in pregnant dogs ...

Relationship between muscle metabolic rate and muscle torque complexity during fatiguing intermittent isometric contractions in humans

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2019
To test the hypothesis that a system’s metabolic rate and the complexity of fluctuations in the output of that system are related, thirteen healthy participants performed intermittent isometric knee extensor contractions at intensities where a rise in ...

Review on enhancing clinical decision support system using machine learning

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Clinical decision‐making is a complex patient‐centred process. For an informed clinical decision, the input data is very thorough ranging from detailed family history, environmental history, social history, health‐risk assessments, and prior relevant medical cases.
