Contour-based Bone Axis Detection for X-Ray Guided Surgery on the Knee [PDF]
The anatomical axis of long bones is an important reference line for guiding fracture reduction and assisting in the correct placement of guide pins, screws, and implants in orthopedics and trauma surgery. This study investigates an automatic approach for detection of such axes on X-ray images based on the segmentation contour of the bone.

The populational growth of the elderly, associated to a healthier and more active life, make this group of people more exposed to accidents. In some countries, trauma in the elderly is responsible for a high mortality rate, disproportionately higher than in the adults.

By using an electrical pulse stimulation (EPS)‐based in vitro exercise model and chemical activation/inhibition of mechanosensitive Piezo1 channels, we explored changes in protein synthetic response in cultured C2C12 myotubes. Our data showed that application of Piezo1 activator (Yoda1) during EPS significantly enhances the rate of protein synthesis in

A Meta-analysis on the Effectiveness of Trauma-informed Practice [PDF]
This study looked at past research on trauma informed practice to analyze its effectiveness.. There is sufficient research portraying the helpfulness of the trauma-informed approach; however, there is little research on whether it is effective as a ...

A Study on the Association between Maternal Childhood Trauma Exposure and Placental-fetal Stress Physiology during Pregnancy [PDF]
It has been found that the effect of childhood trauma (CT) exposure may pass on to the next generation. Scientists have hypothesized that the association between CT exposure and placental-fetal stress physiology is the mechanism. A study was conducted to examine the hypothesis. To examine the association between CT exposure and placental corticotrophin-

Hydrogen sulfide repairs testicular damage induced by heat stress in rats
Heat stress can cause testicular damage and affect fertility. We investigated the potential protective role of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) against heat stress‐induced testicular injury and observed that H2S donor NaHS can effectively restore testicular damage in rats by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative stress. Our results suggest that H2S might be used

Assessing Mortality of Blunt Trauma with Co-morbidity [PDF]
Objectives: To obtain a better estimate of the mortality of individuals suffering from blunt force trauma, including co-morbidity. Methodology: The Injury severity Score (ISS) is the default world standard for assessing the severity of multiple injuries. ISS is a mathematical fit to empirical field data.

Development of the algorithm for differentiating bone metastases and trauma of the ribs in bone scintigraphy and demonstration of visual evidence of the algorithm -- Using only anterior bone scan view of thorax [PDF]
Background: Although there are many studies on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) models to medical imaging, there is no report of an AI model that determines the accumulation of ribs in bone metastases and trauma only using the anterior image of thorax of bone scintigraphy.

SLC7A11 frequently migrates faster in SDS‐PAGE. The present study found that the high hydrophobicity of SLC7A11 causes its anomalous migration in SDS‐PAGE with a low concentration of acrylamide gel. Replacing isoleucine with asparagine reduced hydrophobicity and restored its normal migration at 55 kDa, revealing the role of hydrophobicity and gel ...

Trauma as counter-revolutionary colonisation: narratives from (post)revolutionary Egypt [PDF]
We argue that multiple levels of trauma were present in Egypt before, during and after the 2011 revolution. Individual, social and political trauma constitute a triangle of traumatisation which was strategically employed by the Egyptian counter ...
