There are different ways to analyze energy absorbance (EA) in the human auditory system. In previous research, we developed a complete finite element model (FEM) of the human auditory system.

In this current work, the external ...

The stability criterion approach is very important for estimating precise behavior before or after fabricating brain computer interface system applications.

A novel approach using the Routh-Hurwitz standard criterion method is ...

Myocardial ischemia, caused by insufficient myocardial blood supply, is a leading cause of human death worldwide. Therefore, it is crucial to prioritize the prevention and treatment of this condition. Mathematical modeling is a powerful ...

The gastroscopic examination is a preferred method for the detection of upper gastrointestinal lesions. However, gastroscopic examination has high requirements for doctors, especially for the strict position and quantity of the archived ...

Drug repositioning (DR) refers to a method used to find new targets for existing drugs. This method can effectively reduce the development cost of drugs, save time on drug development, and reduce the risks of drug design. The traditional ...

Cerebral examination via CTA is always the first choice for patients with unexpected brain injury or different types of brain lesions to detect ruptured hemangiomas, vascular infarcts, or other brain tissue lesions.

This study ...

In recent years, exoskeleton robot technology has developed rapidly. Exoskeleton robots that can be worn on a human body and provide additional strength, speed or other abilities. Exoskeleton robots have a wide range of applications, such ...

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading global cause of mortality, necessitating advanced diagnostic tools for early detection. The electrocardiogram (ECG) is pivotal in diagnosing cardiac abnormalities due to its non-invasive ...

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common inflammatory skin disease with a chronic course and a high recurrence.

Based on the theory of “prevention and recovery after ulceration”, the application value and significance of compound ...

Elevator-type evacuation devices have proven to be feasible in high-rise buildings through studies on safety performance and evacuation time. However, there is a lack of research on safety using biosignal analysis in the elderly population.

Transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy is the gold standard diagnostic test for prostate cancer, but it is an invasive examination of non-targeted puncture and has a high false-negative rate.

In this study, we aimed to ...

Physical activity (PA) holds profound implications for the holistic development of college students. However, students with chronic diseases or physical disabilities experience significantly limited PA during adaptive sports.

...

Caenorhabditis elegans is a widely used model animal. Chemotaxis assay is one of the experiments that study the effects of different chemicals on nematodes. It is mainly used to study the effects of different chemicals on the perception ...

Conventional hamstring (HAM) stretching therapeutic effects are not substantiable in neuromusculoskeletal conditions with HAM tightness or shortness. We developed a kinetic chain stabilization exercise to provide a more sustainable ...

High-quality control of the gas environment in incubators is crucial for in vitro embryo development, which requires high accuracy, fast recovery, and low gas consumption.

In this study, we propose a novel gas mixing and ...

Brain tumor is a highly destructive, aggressive, and fatal disease. The presence of brain tumors can disrupt the brain’s ability to control body movements, consciousness, sensations, thoughts, speech, and memory. Brain tumors are often ...

The speech reception threshold (SRT), synonymous with the speech recognition threshold, denotes the minimum hearing level required for an individual to discern 50% of presented speech material. This threshold is measured independently in ...

Computer-aided tongue and face diagnosis technology can make Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) more standardized, objective and quantified. However, many tongue images collected by the instrument may not meet the standard in clinical ...

In recent years, hyperuricemia and acute gouty arthritis have become increasingly common, posing a serious threat to public health. Current treatments primarily involve Western medicines with associated toxic side effects.

...

Selecting an appropriate similarity measurement method is crucial for obtaining biologically meaningful clustering modules. Commonly used measurement methods are insufficient in capturing the complexity of biological systems and fail to ...

With the advent of artificial intelligence technology, machine learning algorithms have been widely used in the area of disease prediction.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) seriously jeopardizes human health worldwide, thereby ...

The dominant feature of Alzheimer’s dementia (AD) is gradual cognitive decline, which can be reflected by reduced finger dexterity.

This review analyzed reports on hand function in AD patients to determine the possibility of ...

This study utilizes machine learning to analyze the recurrence risk of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) in elderly diabetic patients, aiming to enhance prevention and intervention efforts.

The goal is to construct accurate ...

Early diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis is an important area of research in the field of clinical medicine. Due to the complexity in the MRI imaging sequences and the diverse structure of cartilage, there are many challenges in the ...

Prosthetic hands have the potential to replace human hands. Using prosthetic hands can help patients with hand loss to complete the necessary daily living actions.

This paper studies the design of a bionic, compact, low-cost, ...

Plane-wave imaging is widely employed in medical imaging due to its ultra-fast imaging speed. However, the image quality is compromised. Existing techniques to enhance image quality tend to sacrifice the imaging frame rate.

...

With the widespread use of low-dose spiral computed tomography (LDCT) and increasing awareness of personal health, the detection rate of pulmonary nodules is steadily rising.

To evaluate the success rate and safety of two ...

The process of wound healing is complex, and expediting it remains a challenge. The advantages of extremely low frequency electric and magnetic fields (ELF-EMF) are its non-invasive treatment, promotes healing and promotes myogenesis of ...

Heart failure poses a significant challenge in the global health domain, and accurate prediction of mortality is crucial for devising effective treatment plans. In this study, we employed a Seq2Seq model from deep learning, integrating 12 ...
