Pregnancy characteristics and adverse outcomes in offspring of women with epilepsy: a prospective registry study from Mainland China.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the influencing factors of adverse outcomes in the offspring of women with epilepsy (WWE) and to analyze the changes brought about by the epilepsy knowledge popularization campaign in China (EKPCIC).

Methods: This nested case-control study focused on WWE and their offspring from a female epilepsy cohort in mainland China. From January 2009 to August 2022, WWE was prospectively enrolled in 32 study centers.

A hand motion capture method based on infrared thermography for measuring fine motor skills in biomedicine.

Many biomedical applications require fine motor skill assessments; however, real-time and contactless fine motor skill assessments are not typically implemented. In this study, we followed the 2D-to-3D pipeline principle and proposed a transformer-based spatial-temporal network to accurately regress 3D hand joint locations by inputting infrared thermal video for eliminating need of multiple cameras or RGB-D devices. We also developed a dataset composed of infrared thermal videos and ground truth annotations for training.
