Building a Statistical Shape Model of the Apple from Corresponded Surfaces

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2015
In this paper, a method for building a 3D statistical shape model of the apple is described. The framework consists of two parts. First, a reference surface is registered to each apple surface, derived from 3D CT scans of apples, of the population to ...

A Large-scale Virtual Patient Cohort to Study ECG Features of Interatrial Conduction Block

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2022
Interatrial conduction block refers to a disturbance in the propagation of electrical impulses in the conduction pathways between the right and the left atrium. It is a risk factor for atrial fibrillation, stroke, and premature death. Clinical diagnostic

Variability in tibia-fibular geometry is associated with increased tibial strain from running loads

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
Variation in tibial geometry may alter strain magnitude and distribution during locomotion. We investigated the effect of tibia-fibula geometric variations on tibial strain with running loads applied at various speeds.

Health‐Related Social Needs in Children With Sickle Cell Disease Are Associated With Worse Health‐Related Quality of Life

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Children with sickle cell disease (SCD) face multiple acute and chronic medical complications that may impact their quality of life as reported by patients themselves. Health‐related social needs (HRSNs), such as food and housing insecurity, are common in people with SCD, but the association between HRSNs and patient‐reported ...

An experimental and statistical investigation of concave-type stepped solar still with diverse climatic parameters

open access: yesCleaner Engineering and Technology, 2021
In the present research work, a concave-type stepped solar still is experimentally investigated. The statistical analysis shows the influence of different variables identified on the efficiency of the still. The proposed still was fabricated with a basin

The Combined Effect of Obesity and Contraceptive Use on Pulmonary Embolism in Adolescent Females Residing in the United States

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Combined oral contraceptive (COC) use in obese adult women dramatically increases the relative risk of developing a pulmonary embolism (PE). The risk of a PE in obese adolescent females taking contraceptives is currently unknown. The purpose of this investigation was to determine the effect of body mass index (BMI) and contraceptive

Deep Statistic Shape Model for Myocardium Segmentation

open access: yesCoRR, 2022
Accurate segmentation and motion estimation of myocardium have always been important in clinic field, which essentially contribute to the downstream diagnosis. However, existing methods cannot always guarantee the shape integrity for myocardium segmentation.

Deformable Head Atlas of Chinese Adults Incorporating Inter-Subject Anatomical Variations

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
To date, many digital atlases of the human head have been developed, but few incorporate the anatomical variations of the population. In this paper, for the first time, we constructed two digital head atlases (DHAs) of Chinese male and female adults ...

Are Fertility Preservation Procedures Before Gonadotoxic Therapy and Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Feasible and Safe in Very Young Children? A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Fertility preservation (FP) is increasingly integrated into the care of pediatric patients exposed to gonadotoxic therapy or conditioning for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), yet perioperative data in infants and toddlers remain scarce.
