Peptide-Cellulose Conjugates on Cotton-Based Materials Have Protease Sensor/Sequestrant Activity
The growing incidence of chronic wounds in the world population has prompted increased interest in chronic wound dressings with protease-modulating activity and protease point of care sensors to treat and enable monitoring of elevated protease-based ...

Simplified vacuum dressing system: effectiveness and safety in wounds management
Purpose: Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) has revolutionized wound care, but its high cost reduces the procedure’s availability. To solve the problem, streamlined vacuum dressings systems have been proposed, but the utility of these devices has ...

Data-Driven 3D Reconstruction of Dressed Humans From Sparse Views [PDF]
Recently, data-driven single-view reconstruction methods have shown great progress in modeling 3D dressed humans. However, such methods suffer heavily from depth ambiguities and occlusions inherent to single view inputs. In this paper, we tackle this problem by considering a small set of input views and investigate the best strategy to suitably exploit

Background: In the management of partial-thickness burns, insufficient data exist to recommend a specific dressing type. Silver dressings are often used, but different modalities have not been addressed.

Analysis of the healing process of the wounds occurring in rats using lasertherapy in association with hydrocolloid [PDF]
PURPOSE: To evaluate wound healing in rats by using low-level laser therapy (LLLT) associated with hydrocolloid occlusive dressing . METHODS: Forty male, adult, Wistar rats were used, distributed into four groups: LG (received 2 J/cm² of laser therapy)

Pedestrian Detection by Exemplar-Guided Contrastive Learning [PDF]
Typical methods for pedestrian detection focus on either tackling mutual occlusions between crowded pedestrians, or dealing with the various scales of pedestrians. Detecting pedestrians with substantial appearance diversities such as different pedestrian silhouettes, different viewpoints or different dressing, remains a crucial challenge.

Incidence of complications from indwelling pleural catheter for pleural effusion: A meta‐analysis
Abstract Indwelling pleural catheter (IPC) is widely used in patients with pleural effusion (PE). This meta‐analysis aimed to comprehensively summarize the clinical complication from IPC. We searched four large electronic databases (PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Library) for potentially relevant studies and assessed the included studies ...

Tracking Human Pose During Robot-Assisted Dressing using Single-Axis Capacitive Proximity Sensing [PDF]
Dressing is a fundamental task of everyday living and robots offer an opportunity to assist people with motor impairments. While several robotic systems have explored robot-assisted dressing, few have considered how a robot can manage errors in human pose estimation, or adapt to human motion in real time during dressing assistance.
