Exoskeleton-Assisted Stance and Kneeling Balance and Work Task Evaluation in Construction

Balance and Task Evaluation of Construction Workers Assisted by Knee Exoskeletons Background Introduction Construction workers face serious safety and health risks in hazardous working environments, especially when working at heights. Prolonged standing and kneeling postures can lead to knee injuries, musculoskeletal disorders, and visual disturban...

Automated Strategy for Tissue Analysis in Anatomic Pathology: Fiducial Marker Integration and Multisurface Tissue Comparison

Automated Strategy for Tissue Analysis in Anatomic Pathology: Fiducial Marker Integration and Multisurface Tissue Comparison Background Introduction In anatomic pathology laboratories, many processes still rely on manual operations, especially in the preparation and processing of paraffin-embedded tissue blocks (PETBs). Manual operations not only l...

Oral-Anatomical Knowledge-Informed Semi-Supervised Learning for 3D Dental CBCT Segmentation and Lesion Detection

Academic Background and Research Motivation In the field of dental healthcare, Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is a widely used three-dimensional imaging technique. CBCT provides three-dimensional images of the oral cavity and is particularly effective in diagnosing odontogenic lesions. However, the segmentation of CBCT images—labeling each vo...

Influence of Visual-Inertial Sensor-to-Segment Calibration on Upper Limb Joint Angles Estimation

Influence of Visual-Inertial Sensor-to-Segment Calibration on Upper Limb Joint Angles Estimation

Research on Upper Limb Joint Angle Estimation Based on Visual-Inertial Sensors and the Impact of Calibration Methods Academic Background Upper limb dysfunction, especially in post-stroke patients, significantly impacts their ability to perform daily activities. Rehabilitation training is a critical method for restoring upper limb function, but its ...

Adiporon Ameliorates the Progression of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction via Mitigating Lipid Accumulation and Fibrosis

Adiporon Ameliorates the Progression of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF) by Reducing Lipid Accumulation and Fibrosis Research Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is the most common type of heart failure, often coexisting with metabolic disorders such as obesity, diabetes, and hypertension. Althoug...

Multi-Task Aquatic Toxicity Prediction Model Based on Multi-Level Features Fusion

Academic Background With the growing threat of organic compounds to environmental pollution, studying the toxic responses of different aquatic organisms to these compounds has become crucial. Such research not only helps assess the potential ecological impacts of pollutants on the overall aquatic ecosystem but also provides significant scientific f...
