Neural fields for 3D tracking of anatomy and surgical instruments in monocular laparoscopic video clips.

Laparoscopic video tracking primarily focuses on two target types: surgical instruments and anatomy. The former could be used for skill assessment, while the latter is necessary for the projection of virtual overlays. Where instrument and anatomy tracking have often been considered two separate problems, in this article, a method is proposed for joint tracking of all structures simultaneously.

Cumulative incidence of chronic pain after visiting a Dutch emergency department with acute pain.

Background: Chronic pain is a substantial problem in modern healthcare resulting in health care overutilization. The cumulative incidence of developing chronic pain after visiting the emergency department with acute pain has been determined for specific patient groups only. If the cumulative incidence of chronic pain in emergency department patients with acute pain is high, more proactive measures are justified to limit development of chronic pain.

Innovative Pathogen Reduction in Exported Sea Bass Through Atmospheric Cold Plasma Technology.

The safety of sea bass is critical for the global food trade. This study evaluated the effectiveness of atmospheric cold plasma in reducing food safety risks posed by Enteritidis and , which can contaminate sea bass post harvest. Cold plasma was applied to inoculated sea bass for 2 to 18 min, achieving a maximum reduction of 1.

[Septic sacroiliitis: early diagnosis due to specific physical examination].

Background: Septic sacroiliitis is an uncommon disease which represents approximately 1-4% of all joint infections, therefore it is difficult to make the right diagnosis and to start early treatment.

Case Report: A 18 year old woman was admitted to the emergency room with a fever and pain in the left gluteal region. The patient was considered healthy and had no risk factors for septic arthritis.
