Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for treating vasomotor symptoms, sexual dysfunction, and recurrent depression in postmenopausal women.
- It involved 112 participants divided into two groups: one without depression and one with recurrent depression, both receiving therapy sessions over six months.
- Results showed significant improvements in both groups' symptoms after 24 weeks of treatment, although the improvements in the group with depression diminished after 48 weeks.
Remote photoplethysmography imaging (rPPG) is a new solution proposed to measure vital signs, such as respiratory rate (RR) in teleconsultation, by using a webcam. The results, presented here, aim at evaluating the accuracy of such remote measurement methods, compared with existing measurement methods, in a real-life clinical setting. For each patient, measurement of RR, using the standard system (control), has been carried out concomitantly with the experimental system.

For this reason, the piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEHs), with their inherent electromechanical coupling and high-power density, have been widely incorporated in many applications to generate power from ambient mechanical vibrations. However, one of the main challenges to the wider adoption of PEHs is how to optimize their design for maximum energy harvesting.
