Task-Invariant Learning of Continuous Joint Kinematics during Steady-State and Transient Ambulation Using Ultrasound Sensing [PDF]
Natural control of limb motion is continuous and progressively adaptive to individual intent. While intuitive interfaces have the potential to rely on the neuromuscular input by the user for continuous adaptation, continuous volitional control of assistive devices that can generalize across various tasks has not been addressed.

Novel Therapeutic Algorism in Patients With Anterior Cutaneous Nerve Entrapment Syndrome
ABSTRACT Background Anterior cutaneous nerve entrapment syndrome (ACNES) is often overlooked as a cause of chronic abdominal pain. Trigger point injections (TPIs) serve as both a diagnostic and therapeutic tool. Although neurectomy is frequently chosen for patients with severe ACNES, its surgical outcomes remain unclear. Aim This study aims to evaluate

Abstract Prolonged exposure to weightlessness leads to loss of muscle and bone mass. Therefore, astronauts on board the International Space Station (ISS) currently perform mandatory daily exercises. ISS missions usually last 6 months, and future missions will become significantly longer when going, for example, to Mars.

Fully-automated deep learning slice-based muscle estimation from CT images for sarcopenia assessment [PDF]
Objective: To demonstrate the effectiveness of using a deep learning-based approach for a fully automated slice-based measurement of muscle mass for assessing sarcopenia on CT scans of the abdomen without any case exclusion criteria. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study was conducted using a collection of public and privately available CT ...

The European carcass classification system was originally developed for European thin‐tailed sheep breeds. Since the distribution of fat tissue in thin‐tailed lambs differs from fat‐tailed lamb, this may create a disadvantage regarding the effectiveness of the EUROP classification system for fat‐tailed breeds.
