Safety notices and registry outlier data measure different aspects of safety and performance of total knee implants: a comparative study of safety notices and register outliers.

Background And Purpose:  Safety notices for medical devices such as total knee arthroplasty (TKA) implants may indicate problems in their design or performance that require corrective action to prevent patient harm. Safety notices are often published on national Ministries of Health or regulatory agencies websites. It is unknown whether problems triggering safety notices identify the same implants as those identified by registries as "outlier.

Deciphering Acclimation to Sublethal Combined and Sequential Abiotic Stresses in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Plants are frequently exposed to environmental challenges. Responses to sub-lethal abiotic stress combinations are complex and often distinct from responses to individual stresses and remain poorly understood. Investigating traits and molecular factors mediating acclimation to stress combinations is essential for the development of climate change-resilient field crops.

Motor current and vibration monitoring dataset for various faults in an E-motor-driven centrifugal pump.

Induction motor driven pumps are a staple in many sectors of industry, and crucial equipment in naval ships. Such machines can suffer from a wide variety of issues, which may cause it to not perform its function. This can either be due to degradation of components over time, or due to incorrect installation or usage.

Transcriptomic Analysis in Human 3D Skin Model Injected with Resorbable Hyaluronic Acid Fillers Reveals Foreign Body Response.

Usage of injectable dermal fillers applied for aesthetic purposes has extensively increased over the years. As such, the number of related adverse reactions has increased, including patients showing severe complications such as product migration, topical swelling and inflammatory reactions of the skin. In order to understand the underlying molecular events of these adverse reactions we performed a genome-wide gene expression study on the multi-cell type human Phenion® Full-Thickness Skin Model exposed to five experimental hyaluronic acid (HA) preparations with increasing cross-linking degree, four commercial fillers from Perfectha®, and non-resorbable filler Bio-Alcamid®.

Water quality monitoring based on chemometric analysis of high-resolution phytoplankton data measured with flow cytometry.

River water is an important source of Dutch drinking water. For this reason, continuous monitoring of river water quality is needed. However, comprehensive chemical analyses with high-resolution gas chromatography [GC]-mass spectrometry [MS]/liquid chromatography [LC]-MS are quite tedious and time consuming; this makes them poorly fit for routine water quality monitoring and, therefore, many pollution events are missed.
