The effect of elastic abdominal binder use on respiratory function on persons with high spinal cord injury at orthostatic position [PDF]
Introduction : Spinal cord injury causes respiratory muscles paralysis, especially in high thoracic paraplegia and tetraplegia with injury above or right on the sixth thoracic segment, and also biomechanics, volumes, capacities and respiratory pressures ...

Unusual presentation of medication‐induced atrial fibrillation: A case report
Key Clinical Message This case highlights that atrial fibrillation can occur as an adverse effect of tamsulosin even in younger patients at lower doses, challenging the conventional understanding that this complication primarily affects older individuals on higher doses.

Non-contact Vital Signs Monitoring through Visible Light Sensing [PDF]
This paper presents a non-contact vital signs (respiration and heartbeat) monitoring system that utilizes visible light sensing (VLS) technology. We have for the first time demonstrated the ability to wirelessly (non-contact) sense vital signs using only reflected incoherent light signals from a human subject.

Abstract Introduction Zongertinib (BI 1810631) is a potent, selective, and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) wild‐type sparing human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) inhibitor. Based on in vitro data, the oxidative hepatic metabolism of zongertinib is principally driven by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4/5.

Navigating the Limits of Diagnosis: Young Adults' Experiences of Chronic Living
ABSTRACT Young adults living with chronic illness often experience considerable uncertainty across the emotional, cultural and medical spheres of their everyday lives. The process of seeking, receiving and reckoning with a diagnosis has frequently been an in‐road for qualitative examinations of these experiences.

Interference Motion Removal for Doppler Radar Vital Sign Detection Using Variational Encoder-Decoder Neural Network [PDF]
The treatment of interfering motion contributions remains one of the key challenges in the domain of radar-based vital sign monitoring. Removal of the interference to extract the vital sign contributions is demanding due to overlapping Doppler bands, the complex structure of the interference motions and significant variations in the power levels of ...
