Personalized On-line Adaptation of Kinematic Synergies for Human-Prosthesis Interfaces [PDF]
IEEE Trans. Cybern. (2019) 1-15, 2019 Synergies have been adopted in prosthetic limb applications to reduce complexity of design, but typically involve a single synergy setting for a population and ignore individual preference or adaptation capacity. However, personalization of the synergy setting is necessary for the effective operation of the prosthetic device.

Failure of Beall mitral valve prosthesis
The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1975 This report presents a case of severe dysfunction of an improved Model 104 Beall valve secondary to disc wear. This type of valve failure may be extremely difficult to detect by auscultation, echocardiography, or fluoroscopic examination. Prosthesis failure with resulting mitral insufficiency should be considered in any patient with a Teflon disc Beall
