AI‐Driven Defecation Analysis by Smart Healthcare Toilet: Exploring Biometric Patterns and Eu‐Tenesmus

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A healthcare toilet system is introduced to passively measure defecation behavior. Real‐time data on stool dropping duration, thickness, and a newly defined “eu‐tenesmus” interval show correlations with stool form and gender differences. Results from 45 defecation events reveal a promising method for comprehensive defecation analysis.

Integrated total pelvic floor ultrasound in pelvic floor dysfunction

Continence, 2023
Integrated total pelvic floor ultrasound is a combination of endoanal, transperineal, and endovaginal ultrasound used for the static and dynamic assessment of the entire pelvic floor. It can be used as a screening investigation for defaecatory dysfunction so that defaecatory radiological imaging may be avoided.

A Soft Wearable Robot with an Adjustable Twisted String Actuator and a Two‐Stage Transmission Mechanism for Manual Handling Tasks

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article proposes a soft wearable robot (WeaRo) to assist workers while executing manual handling tasks. With its innovative design, the WeaRo effectively assists multiple body parts during manual handling tasks while using a single motor. Furthermore, the components of the WeaRo are assembled onto a fabric‐based suit, ensuring high performance and

An overview of the postcranial osteology of caecilians (Gymnophiona, Lissamphibia)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Caecilians comprise a relatively small (~220 species) group (Gymnophiona) of snake‐like or worm‐like, mostly tropical amphibians. Most adult caecilians are fossorial, although some species may live in aquatic or semi‐aquatic environments, either as larvae or adults.

Lineage labeling with zebrafish hand2 Cre and CreERT2 recombinase CRISPR knock‐ins

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The ability to generate endogenous Cre recombinase drivers using CRISPR‐Cas9 knock‐in technology allows lineage tracing, cell type‐specific gene studies, and in vivo validation of inferred developmental trajectories from phenotypic and gene expression analyses. This report describes endogenous zebrafish hand2 Cre and CreERT2 drivers

Connectivity of the Superficial Muscles of the Human Perineum: A Diffusion Tensor Imaging-Based Global Tractography Study. [PDF]

, 2018
Despite the importance of pelvic floor muscles, significant controversy still exists about the true structural details of these muscles. We provide an objective analysis of the architecture and orientation of the superficial muscles of the perineum using

Spontaneous hemoperitoneum in a 29‐week pregnancy with a history of endometriosis: A case report and review of the literature

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 169, Issue 1, Page 31-37, April 2025.
Abstract Spontaneous hemoperitoneum in pregnancy (SHIP) is defined as sudden, nontraumatic intraperitoneal bleeding that occurs during pregnancy or up to 42 days postpartum. The incidence ranges between 4 and 4.9 per 100 000 births. Although seen rarely, it is associated with perinatal morbidity and mortality due to maternal hemodynamic instability ...
