Can Trabecular Bone Score Enhance Fracture Risk Assessment in Long-Distance Runners With Bone Stress Injuries?

Objective: To evaluate the trabecular bone score (TBS) Z scores in long-distance runners with bone stress injuries (BSIs) in whom the bone mineral density (BMD) Z score is more than -1.0 (Aim 1) and whether the number of runners with abnormal TBS Z scores would be higher in those with BSI in trabecular-rich sites as compared with cortical-rich sites (Aim 2).

Design: Retrospective cohort study.

Thermoelectric Gel Enabling Self-Powered Facial Perception for Expression Recognition and Health Monitoring.

By analyzing facial features to perform expression recognition and health monitoring, facial perception plays a pivotal role in noninvasive, real-time disease diagnosis and prevention. Current perception routes are limited by structural complexity and the necessity of a power supply, making timely and accurate monitoring difficult. Herein, a self-powered poly(vinyl alcohol)-gellan gum-glycerol thermogalvanic gel patch enabling facial perception is developed for monitoring emotions and atypical pathological states.

Optimizing dual energy X-ray image enhancement using a novel hybrid fusion method.

Background: Airport security is still a main concern for assuring passenger safety and stopping illegal activity. Dual-energy X-ray Imaging (DEXI) is one of the most important technologies for detecting hidden items in passenger luggage. However, noise in DEXI images, arising from various sources such as electronic interference and fluctuations in X-ray intensity, can compromise the effectiveness of object identification.

Efficient radiolabeling of mesoporous silica nanoparticles for single-cell PET imaging.

Purpose: Nanoparticles are highly efficient vectors for ferrying contrast agents across cell membranes, enabling ultra-sensitive in vivo tracking of single cells with positron emission tomography (PET). However, this approach must be fully characterized and understood before it can be reliably implemented for routine applications.

Methods: We developed a Langmuir adsorption model that accurately describes the process of labeling mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNP) with Ga.

Epidemiology and Molecular Characterisation of Multidrug-Resistant Isolated from Cow Milk.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing global concern and poses a significant threat to public health. The emergence of multidrug-resistant organisms, including , also presents a risk of transmission to humans through the food chain, including milk. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of in raw milk in the Chattogram metropolitan area (CMA) of Bangladesh and their phenotypic and genotypic antimicrobial resistance patterns.
