Cognitive functioning was assessed in diabetic patients during hypoglycemia (60 mg/dl), euglycemia/ control (110 and hyperglycemia (300 mg/dl). Blood glucose levels were set maintained to within 4% of targeted by an artificial insulin/glucose infusion system (Biostator). Attention fine motor skills, assessedby visual reaction time, slowed at altered levels. Performance less impaired than when a longer interstimulus interval used,although it still slower normal. The time required solve simple...
Naltrexone is an approved drug for management of alcohol use disorder (AUD), but data in patients with liver disease (LD) are limited. We aimed to evaluate the safety naltrexone those LD. This a retrospective cohort adults and without LD who were prescribed AUD from 2015 2019 safety-net setting. hepatic was determined by enzyme changes during after compared before prescription as well rates subsequent hospitalization death Kaplan-Meier methods. Factors associated examined Cox regression. Of...
Most patients diagnosed with endometrial hyperplasia or cancer are obese. Obesity, along polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), may act synergistically to increase risk of malignant pathology. Incidence pathology is increasing, particularly in reproductive aged women. In who desire future fertility, the levonorgestrel intrauterine device (LNG-IUD) often utilized. If first-line progestin therapy fails, there not an effective second-line adjunct option....
This paper presents a methodology for movement recognition in hand-assisted laparoscopic surgery using textile-based sensing glove. The aim is to recognize the commands given by surgeon’s hand inside patient’s abdominal cavity order guide collaborative robot. glove, which incorporates piezoresistive sensors, continuously captures degree of flexion fingers. These data are analyzed throughout surgical operation an algorithm that detects and recognizes some defined movements as However, not...
We have developed a new method to assess the movement of particles in different steps well-calibrated sequential kinematic restoration. Calibration included correct assessment amounts overburden, sedimentation, erosion, and thermal behavior through time. Our allowed better understanding mechanisms deformation uplift geologic provinces. In our pilot case study Colombian Eastern Cordillera, we used vectors balanced cross sections document an initial phase dominant vertical final tangential...
Objective The objective of this study is to determine the association between risk factors and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), establish relationship hepatic histological changes in obese women. Methods A case-control design study. Women with NAFLD (cases) were compared a control group women without matched by age, body mass index, waist circumference, fat. Irrespective serum aminotransferases levels, diagnosis was established presence type II diabetes, hypertriglyceridemia,...
In this paper, we present an automatic system designed for detect the presence of split defects in sheet-metal forming processes. The image acquisition includes basically a CCD progressive camera and diffuse illumination mounted on endeffector 6-dof robot. inspection-robot displaces over pieces proceeding from line. recognition, positioning later inspection are realized as moving conveyor belt. To realize inspection, acquired images restored using Markov random field model. Defect detection...
Subluxation of the radial head is a common injury in young children. It occurs after longitudinal traction on extended arm with forearm pronation. Diagnosis made from history and clinical presentation. Closed reduction achieved by supination flexion or hyperpronating affected can usually restore normal anatomy satisfactorily. Rarely, it requires open reduction. There are very few cases literature that have required no article shows intraoperative photographs. We present two delayed diagnosis...
The growing demand for service robots requires a better and more natural human-machine interaction.Given that an important part of human communication is non-verbal, it necessary to endow with gestural capabilities similar humans.This paper describes the design construction realistic, mechatronic head high gesture capacity.The proposed based on anatomy facial expressions are defined through Facial Action Coding System (FACS).The shows implementation details way set servomotors can generate...
To determine the clinical characteristics of NAFLD in asymptomatic obese women.A total 457 women were enrolled a cross-sectional study and allocated into groups with without NAFLD. Irrespective ALT levels, diagnosis was established by ultrasonographic findings; irrespective fibrosis, NASH defined hepatic histological changes.One hundred ninety five (42.7%) had elevated levels. Diagnosis 228 (49.9%) women; among NAFLD, 34 (14.9%) have levels within normal range. On other hand, based on...
A controlled clinical trial evaluated the usefulness of three different therapeutic approaches in treatment spinal cord compression (SCC) as primary manifestation malignant lymphoma with following end-points: neurological function, event free survival (EFS) and overall (OS). Forty-eight patients SCC unique (IE) lymphoma, were randomly assigned to receive either: radiotherapy (16 patients), chemotherapy (11 patients) or combined therapy (radiotherapy followed by chemotherapy, 21 patients)....
A pancreaticopleural fistula (PPF) is a rare complication of chronic pancreatitis secondary to pancreatic pseudocyst or any disruption the main duct. It commonly presents as recurrent left-sided pleural effusion after multiple thoracentesis. We present case 41-year-old woman with numerous flares presenting large bilateral serosanguinous effusions and trapped lung PPF. To our knowledge, this first documented PPF leading resulting in lung.
Hand gesture recognition has many applications that require models to work in real time and with high accuracy. The problem of hand involves identifying the time, duration class a given movement hand. In this paper, user-specific model is proposed. This based on electromyographies (EMGs) measured Myo Armband, covariances together bag functions for feature extraction, shallow feed-forward neural network classification. recognizes 5 gestures: fist, finger spread, wave in, out double tap....
This paper describes a new approach to path planning of robot manipulators with many degrees freedom. It is designed for on-line motion in dynamic and unpredictable environments. The robots react moving obstacles using local reactive algorithm restricted subset its configuration space. lack long-term view algorithms (local minima problems) solved an off-line pre-planning stage that chooses the space minimises probability not finding collision free paths. implemented tested on system three...
Current modern society is characterized by an increasing level of elderly population. This population group usually ligated to important physical and cognitive impairments, which implies that older people need the care, attention supervision health professionals. In this paper, a new system for supervising rehabilitation therapies using autonomous robots presented. The therapy explained in work modified version classical ’Simon Says’ game, where robot executes list motions gestures human has...
To determine if the use of adjuvant radiotherapy to sites initial bulky disease and adequate modern chemotherapy in patients with advanced stages (IIIB IV) Hodgkin's could improve duration remission overall survival. Patients previously untreated pathologically documented were randomly assigned received alone EBVD regimen (epirubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine dacarbazine): 56 or combined therapy: The same following by (35 Gy) (tumor mass >7 cm diamenter): 54 patients. Five year survival rates...
