Introduction: Premenopausal and postmenopausal osteoporosis and associated fragility fractures are major public health problems. Exercise, especially moderate-to-high-intensity impact exercise, has been recommended as an effective, low-cost non-pharmacological strategy for bone strength improvement; however, evidence on fracture risk is limited. In addition, maintaining regular training is currently a problem.

Article Synopsis
  • * Data were collected from 899 patients over a span of nine years, showing that a specific number of surgeries are required for surgeons to become proficient, with 22 patients for distal and 20 for total gastrectomy regarding operation time.
  • * Results indicate that as surgeons gain experience, both operation times and postoperative complications improve significantly, suggesting that experience in one type of robotic surgery can enhance skills in another.

This paper discusses the relationship between stimulating pulse width and the threshold of electrically evoked compound action potential (ECAP). Firstly, the rheobase and chronaxy from strength-duration curve of nerve fiber was computed using the shepherd's experiment results. Secondly, based on the relationship between ECAP and the action potential of nerve fiber, a mathematical expression to describe the relationship between stimulating pulse width and ECAP threshold was proposed.
