Characteristics of Cerebral Palsy in the Midwestern US
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common lifelong motor disability worldwide. Yet, data is limited on how CP manifests in the US. Our objective was to characterize and determine factors affecting functional outcomes in a large population of young people with CP in the Midwestern US.

A review of vision screening methods for children
African Vision and Eye Health, 2018 Background: What constitutes an appropriate vision screening protocol is controversial, because the tests or methods are expected to be cost-effective, expedient and easy but efficient in detecting visual anomalies among children.

Synthetic vision and emotion calculation in intelligent virtual human modeling [PDF]
, 2007 The virtual human technique already can provide vivid and believable human behaviour in more and more scenarios. Virtual humans are expected to replace real humans in hazardous situations to undertake tests and feed back valuable information.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A multimaterial approach is introduced to improve upon auxetic structures by combining two different polymers into the same reentrant honeycomb structure via additive manufacturing. The deformation behavior as well as the resulting Poisson's ratio are thereby improved significantly.

Effect of stimulus configuration on crowding in strabismic amblyopia [PDF]
, 2017 Foveal vision in strabismic amblyopia can show increased levels of crowding, akin to typical peripheral vision. Target–flanker similarity and visual-acuity test configuration may cause the magnitude of crowding to vary in strabismic amblyopia.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.The dielectric elastomer‐based electropneumatic device (DE‐EPD) is a vacuum‐assisted ventricular assist device (VAD) that delivers high performance (85 mmHg, 6.8 L min−1) with low power consumption. Unlike traditional motor‐driven VADs, it is lightweight, quiet, energy‐efficient, and provides pulsatile flow. Validated in a simulated circulation system,
