Abstract Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for radiation therapy treatment planning is currently being used in many anatomical sites to better visualize soft tissue landmarks, a technique known as an MRI simulation. A core component of modern MRI simulation configurations are the use of external laser positioning systems (ELPS) to help set up

The effects of three month long continuous glucose monitoring in children with type 1 diabetes on multiple daily insulin injections [PDF]
Background/Aim. The Professional System of Continuous Glucose Monitoring, the iPro®2 CGM System (Medtronic) is designed to be worn together with a glucose sensor with an electrode inserted into the subcutaneous tissue, up to 7 days, without insight into ...

In alkaline Zn–MnO2 cylindrical batteries, nonuniform ZnO precipitation creates a force that pushes Zn particles inward toward the current collector in some cases. Individual Zn particle movement is quantified via pseudo‐operando micro‐computed tomography and particle tracking.

Isolated metastasis of lung cancer to carpal bones [PDF]
Introduction. Lung cancer often gives metastases in the bone system, of which the wrist accounts for 0.1% and the bones of the wrist are primarily affected in only 17% of cases. We presented a patient with the delayed diagnosis and a rare localization of

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

A Bayesian Framework for Empirical Estimation of Post‐Earthquake Building Inspection Time
Building safety inspections can be an impeding determinant of post‐earthquake recovery, yet their durations remain inadequately quantified because fine‐grained operational data are rarely available. Here, we present a probabilistic Bayesian framework to quantify building‐level inspection time, calibrated against a comprehensive multiagency dataset from

ABSTRACT Background Conventional laparoscopic instruments provide limited dexterity in confined anatomical environments, whereas existing articulated designs rely on complex rigid joints or motorised actuation, increasing mechanical complexity and limiting miniaturisation.

Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

Risk Assessment Models for Heated Tobacco Products
ABSTRACT Heated tobacco products (HTPs) are marketed as alternatives to conventional cigarettes with a potential reduced risk profile. Yet, their actual impact on cancer and noncancer disease risk remains uncertain and requires rigorous quantitative assessment.
