A comparative study of gellan gum and xanthan gum versus commercial vehicles as pharmaceutical thickening agents in oral suspensions.

Pharmaceutical oral suspensions are the main form used for patients with dysphagia. Compounding these forms is challenging because they are thermodynamically unstable but must remain physically stable. Ready-to-use vehicles such as Inorpha® or Orablend® exist but these are not optimal, and physical stability can be improved using a thickening or suspending agent.

Learning Kernel-Modulated Neural Representation for Efficient Light Field Compression.

Light fields capture 3D scene information by recording light rays emitted from a scene at various orientations. They offer a more immersive perception, compared with classic 2D images, but at the cost of huge data volumes. In this paper, we design a compact neural network representation for the light field compression task.

Creation and evaluation of an educational escape room for preclinical training on 3D printing in dentistry.

Introduction: The benefit of pedagogical escape rooms for dental students' stimulation, interest and knowledge strengthening has been suggested by several studies. However, in previous studies, only a few students were evaluated. This study aims to confirm the purpose of this innovative pedagogical tool in terms of learning consolidation and team building from students' perceptions.

HEADSET: Human Emotion Awareness under Partial Occlusions Multimodal DataSET.

The volumetric representation of human interactions is one of the fundamental domains in the development of immersive media productions and telecommunication applications. Particularly in the context of the rapid advancement of Extended Reality (XR) applications, this volumetric data has proven to be an essential technology for future XR elaboration. In this work, we present a new multimodal database to help advance the development of immersive technologies.

The psychopathological repercussions on patients faced with pain: A focus on endometriosis.

Objectives: Endometriosis is a chronic and progressive gynecological disease that affects 1 to 2 out of 10 women of childbearing age in France. The objective of this research was to understand the factors determining the quality of life of the patients who experience significant pain symptoms (75%), distinguished by the extent and depth of the lesions. The second objective was to evaluate the psychological repercussions of this pain.
