The dataset proposed is a collection of pedestrian navigation data sequences combining visual and spatial information. The pedestrian navigation sequences are situations encountered by a pedestrian walking in an urban outdoor environment, such as moving on the sidewalk, navigating through a crowd, or crossing a street when the pedestrian light traffic is green. The acquired data are timestamped provided RGB-D images and are associated with GPS, and inertial data (acceleration, rotation).

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigated immediate hypersensitivity reactions (IH) to iodinated and gadolinium-based contrast media (ICM; GBCM), focusing on differentiating between allergic and non-allergic responses, which is crucial for future medical treatment decisions.
  • - Over 245 patients were analyzed through skin tests and other clinical evaluations, revealing an allergic reaction rate of 19.6% for ICM and 27.8% for GBCM, with notable cross-reactivity among patients.
  • - The findings indicated that allergic IH was linked to more severe reactions and quicker onset than non-allergic IH, highlighting the need for more sensitive skin testing methods to better identify allergic responses to contrast agents.

In pediatric units, bacteria-producing extended-spectrum-betalactamase (ESBL) have an increasing prevalence among bacteria causing febrile urinary tract infections (UTIs). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the epidemiology of bacteria resistance patterns observed in UTIs, in order to assess the current antibiotic treatment protocols. This study is based upon a single-center retrospective chart review of the cytobacteriological urine cultures performed in UTIs between 1 January and 31 December 2014, in the medical pediatric unit of the Caen University Hospital.
