Accelerometry-based Energy Expenditure Estimation During Activities of Daily Living: A Comparison Among Different Accelerometer Compositions [PDF]
Physical activity energy expenditure (PAEE) can be measured from breath-by-breath respiratory data, which can serve as a reference. Alternatively, PAEE can be predicted from the body movements, which can be measured and estimated with accelerometers. The body center of mass (COM) acceleration reflects the movements of the whole body and thus serves as ...

Ultrasound Neuromodulation (Low‐Intensity Focused Ultrasound) to Treat Knee Osteoarthritis Pain
Low‐intensity focused ultrasound is a non‐invasive neuromodulation technique that delivers mechanical forces to a deep location within the body through acoustic pressure waves without affecting tissue between the transducer and focal target. Preliminary studies involving healthy volunteers suggest focused ultrasound reversibly prevents action potential

Abstract Background Accurate staging and identification of optimal candidates for local salvage therapy, such as salvage radical prostatectomy (SRP), is necessary to ensure optimal care in patients with radiorecurrent prostate cancer (PCa). We aimed to analyze performance of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and prostate‐specific membrane antigen (PSMA)‐

Prolonged Vancomycin‐Induced Linear IgA Disease in a Patient With Renal Failure
ABSTRACT A 64‐year‐old man with pneumococcal septic shock and subsequent renal failure underwent treatments with antibiotics including intravenous vancomycin (VCM). Blistering skin lesions appeared 10 days after the initiation of VCM. When the patient was transferred to us 5 months later, blisters with erythema were still observed on the abdomen and ...
