Exosome Revolution or Marketing Mirage? AI-Based Multi-domain Evaluation of Claims, Scientific Evidence, Transparency, Public Sentiment, and Media Narratives.

Introduction: Exosome-based therapies are being hypothesised and promoted as a transformative innovation in regenerative aesthetics, offering promising benefits for skin rejuvenation, anti-ageing, and hair restoration. However, the field faces challenges related to scientific validation, transparency, and lack regulatory oversight, for use in humans. Furthermore, there is insufficient of clinical trials registered for use in aesthetic practise.

From Posts to Perceptions: Sentiment and Psychological Analysis of Aesthetic Enhancements on Social Media.

Introduction: Social media platforms significantly influence public perception and individual behaviour, particularly regarding aesthetic enhancements. Instagram, TikTok, Douyin, Kuaishou, X, Sina Weibo, and VK showcase content related to various aesthetic procedures, shaping societal norms around beauty and self-image. Despite the prevalence of this content, understanding its psychological impact and societal attitudes remains underexplore.

Equation for Attractiveness: Integrating Multidimensional Factors Through Computational Neuroaesthetics.

Background: Understanding the multifaceted nature of attractiveness (A), which encompasses physical beauty (PB), genuineness (GEN), self-confidence (SC), and prior experience (RE), is crucial for various domains, including psychology and clinical aesthetics. Previous studies have often isolated specific elements, failing to capture their intricate interplay. This study aims to develop a comprehensive equation for attractiveness using computational neuroaesthetics.

Development and Evaluation of a Virtual Environment to Assess Cycling Hazard Perception Skills.

Safe cycling requires situational awareness to identify and perceive hazards in the environment to react to and avoid dangerous situations. Concurrently, tending to external distractions leads to a failure to identify hazards or to respond appropriately in a time-constrained manner. Hazard perception training can enhance the ability to identify and react to potential dangers while cycling.

Ballistic performance of Polycarbonate and Polymethyl methacrylate under normal and inclined dynamic impacts.

Polymeric materials have exceptional mechanical properties, making them attractive for automotive, aerospace, defence and buildings industries. The numerical analysis of translucent polymeric materials' ballistic performance is investigated to analyse the deflection and perforation performance at high impact velocities. Computational methods are exploited to predict the ballistic performance of thick targets and projectile damage, and the results are validated against published works.

Altered bodily self-consciousness and peripersonal space in autism.

There is some evidence that disordered self-processing in autism spectrum disorders is linked to the social impairments characteristic of the condition. To investigate whether bodily self-consciousness is altered in autism spectrum disorders as a result of multisensory processing differences, we tested responses to the full body illusion and measured peripersonal space in 22 adults with autism spectrum disorders and 29 neurotypical adults. In the full body illusion set-up, participants wore a head-mounted display showing a view of their 'virtual body' being stroked synchronously or asynchronously with respect to felt stroking on their back.

The Role of Artificial Intelligence in the Prediction of Functional Maturation of Arteriovenous Fistula.

: The aim of this study is to examine the application of virtual artificial intelligence (AI) in the prediction of functional maturation (FM) and pattern recognition of factors in autogenous radiocephalic arteriovenous fistula (RCAVF) formation. : A prospective database of 266 individuals over a four-year period with n=10 variables were used to train, validate and test an artificial neural network (ANN). The ANN was constructed to create a predictive model and evaluate the impact of variables on the endpoint of FM.

ReHabgame: A non-immersive virtual reality rehabilitation system with applications in neuroscience.

This paper proposes the use of a non-immersive virtual reality rehabilitation system "ReHabgame" developed using Microsoft Kinect™ and the Thalmic™ Labs Myo gesture control armband. The ReHabgame was developed based on two third-person video games that provide a feasible possibility of assessing postural control and functional reach tests. It accurately quantifies specific postural control mechanisms including timed standing balance, functional reach tests using real-time anatomical landmark orientation, joint velocity, and acceleration while end trajectories were calculated using an inverse kinematics algorithm.
