Because of their resilience, Time-of-Flight (ToF) cameras are now essential components in scientific and industrial settings. This paper outlines the essential factors for modeling 3D ToF cameras, with specific emphasis on analyzing the phenomenon known as "wiggling". Through our investigation, we demonstrate that wiggling not only causes systematic errors in distance measurements, but also introduces periodic fluctuations in statistical measurement uncertainty, which compounds the dependence on the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

Bisacodyl is a widely used laxative that stimulates both motility and secretion. Our aim was to exploit the unique capabilities of MRI to define bisacodyl's mode of action. Two placebo-controlled cross-over trials were performed, one using a single dose of Bisacodyl 5 mg while the second dosed daily for 3 consecutive days.

Background:  Oculomotor and reaction time tests are frequently used assessments of vestibular symptoms, traumatic brain injury (TBI), or other neurological disorders in both clinical and research contexts. When interpreting these tests it is important to have a reference interval (RI) as a comparison for what constitutes a typical/expected response; however, the current body of research has only limited information regarding normative ranges calculated according to established standards or for a military-specific sample.

Purpose:  The purpose of the present study was to describe RIs for oculomotor and reaction time tests in a cohort of service members and veterans (SMVs) for use as comparators by clinicians and scientists.

Article Synopsis
  • In 2022, the International Society of Exposure Science launched the HB2GV Dashboard, a free online tool that compiles approximately 600 human biomonitoring guidance values for over 150 chemicals to assist risk assessors and managers.
  • The Dashboard includes various types of guidance values, primarily focusing on Biomonitoring Equivalents and Human Biomonitoring values, but new users may struggle to understand how to interpret these values effectively.
  • A case study on di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is presented to highlight the differences in derivation methods, quality, and confident interpretation of guidance values, emphasizing the importance of selecting appropriate HB2GVs for informed health-based decisions.
