Continuous Finger Gesture Recognition Based on Flex Sensors.

The goal of this work is to present a novel continuous finger gesture recognition system based on flex sensors. The system is able to carry out accurate recognition of a sequence of gestures. Wireless smart gloves equipped with flex sensors were implemented for the collection of the training and testing sets.

Constructing the HBV-human protein interaction network to understand the relationship between HBV and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Background: Epidemiological studies have clearly validated the association between hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Patients with chronic HBV infection are at increased risk of HCC, in particular those with active liver disease and cirrhosis.

Methods: We catalogued all published interactions between HBV and human proteins, identifying 250 descriptions of HBV and human protein interactions and 146 unique human proteins that interact with HBV proteins by text mining.

Modified arterialization of orthotopic liver transplantation in a mouse model.

Background: With the establishment of genetically modified and gene knock-out models, the mouse has become an important animal model for liver transplantation. We examined hepatic rearterialization after liver transplantation in a mouse model.

Methods: Orthotopic liver transplantation was performed in 70 mice and sham-operation was performed in a control group of 40 mice.
