A Soft‐Tip Hydraulically Steerable Catheter for Enhanced Flexibility and Safety in Vascular Interventions

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study introduces a hydraulically steerable catheter with a soft tip in vascular procedures. The steering soft tip achieves a minimal diameter of 2.6 mm and supports a 180° bend. Real‐time shape and position tracking, facilitated by segmentation and endpoint detection techniques, improves navigation.

Adeno‐associated virus serotype 2 capsid variants for improved liver‐directed gene therapy

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Current liver‐directed gene therapies look for adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors with improved efficacy. With this background, capsid engineering is explored. Whereas shuffled capsid library screenings have resulted in potent liver targeting variants with one first vector in human clinical trials, modifying natural ...

Imaging Radiation Pneumonitis in a Rat Model of a Radiological Terrorism Incident [PDF]

, 2009
We have developed a rat model of single, sub-lethal thoracic irradiation. Our irradiation protocol is considered representative of exposures near the detonation site of a dirty bomb or small nuclear device.

IAR‐Net: Tabular Deep Learning Model for Interventionalist's Action Recognition

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents IAR‐Net, a deep‐learning framework for catheterization action recognition. To ensure optimality, this study quantifies interoperator similarities and differences using statistical tests, evaluates the distribution fidelity of synthetic data produced by six generative models, and benchmarks multiple deep‐learning models.

Multivariate Contrastive Predictive Coding with Sliding Windows for Disease Prediction from Electronic Health Records

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Adaptive multi‐indicator contrastive predictive coding is introduced as a self‐supervised pretraining framework for multivariate EHR time series. An adaptive sliding‐window algorithm and 2D convolutional neural network encoder capture localized temporal patterns and global indicator dependencies, enabling label‐efficient disease prediction that ...

Robust Dysarthric Speech Recognition with GAN Enhancement and LLM Correction

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study tackles dysarthric speech recognition by combining generative adversarial network (GAN)‐generated synthetic data with large language model (LLM)‐based error correction. The approach integrates three key elements: an improved CycleGAN to generate synthetic dysarthric speech for data augmentation, a multimodal automatic speech recognition core

Semi‐autonomous Navigation of Magnetic Microcarriers for Knee Cartilage Regeneration

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Autonomous navigation of magnetic microcarriers in complex 3D environments is investigated through a semi‐autonomous strategy integrating magnetic actuation with monocular visual feedback. Real‐time global tracking is achieved via radio‐frequency‐based localization and depth estimation, while model‐based computation determines optimal steering forces ...

“And in some cases, we're the best option:” A qualitative study of community‐based doula support for black perinatal mental health

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract We explored community‐based doulas' perspectives on the acceptability of using formal screening tools to address low rates of mental health screening, diagnosis, and treatment for perinatal anxiety and depression among Black women. Using thematic analysis, we analyzed interview data from 30 community‐based doulas who support Black families ...
