With the population ages, many patients are unable to receive comprehensive care, leading to an increase in hazardous incidents, particularly falls occurring after getting out of bed. To address this issue, this paper proposes a method for recognizing bed-exit intentions using an array air spring mattress. The method integrates convolutional neural networks with feature point matching techniques to identify both global and local features of the array air spring.

When humans perform pouring tasks, they exhibit consistent accuracy, regardless of the liquid type, container, or environmental conditions. This proficiency stems from their ability to effectively utilize both vision and hearing while also considering various factors. However, in the domain of robotic liquid pouring, the combination of multimodal information is effectively rarely leveraged to accomplish automatic control of robotic liquid pouring.

Background: Despite significant strides in lung cancer immunotherapy, the response rates for Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS)-driven lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) patients remain limited. Fibrinogen-like protein 1 (FGL1) is a newly identified immune checkpoint target, and the study of related resistance mechanisms is crucial for improving the treatment outcomes of LUAD patients. This study aimed to elucidate the potential mechanism by which FGL1 regulates the tumor microenvironment in KRAS-mutated cancer.

Article Synopsis
  • Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease that often doesn't respond well to conventional treatments, leading researchers to explore herbal alternatives like tryptanthrin (Tryp) due to their lower cost and side effects.
  • The study introduced ethosomes, a new delivery system that enhances the absorption of Tryp through the skin barrier, utilizing a one-step technique to create a Tryp-loaded ethosome (Tryp-ES) that shows improved drug stability and size consistency.
  • In tests on mice with psoriasis, Tryp-ES showed better skin retention and permeation of the drug, leading to significant symptom improvement without harmful side effects, suggesting a promising new approach to treating psoriasis.

In bone-milling surgical procedures, the intense friction between the tool and bone material often results in high cutting temperatures, leading to the thermal necrosis of bone cells. This paper aims to investigate the effect of micro-texture on the tribological properties of YG8 cemented carbide in contact with bone. The main objective is to guide the design of tool surface microstructures to reduce frictional heat generation.

Childhood overweight/obesity is a serious problem that has not been adequately addressed. As a key factor affecting weight gain, the association between dietary intake with childhood overweight and obesity is still unclear. The objective of this study was to analyze the association between sociodemographic, lifestyle factors and dietary intake with overweight or obesity.

Epoxy resins with higher corrosion resistance typically employ environmentally harmful organic solvents such as xylene, while the corrosion resistance of waterborne epoxy resins, which are relatively environmentally friendly, is not as good as that of oil-based epoxy resins. In this study, by coating the surface of waterborne epoxy resin with a superhydrophobic zinc oxide coating, the corrosion resistance of waterborne epoxy resin was enhanced. During the initial immersion, its impedance value can reach 10 Ω·cm.

Pulse wave analysis, a non-invasive and cuff-less approach, holds promise for blood pressure (BP) measurement in precision medicine. In recent years, pulse wave learning for BP estimation has undergone extensive scrutiny. However, prevailing methods still encounter challenges in grasping comprehensive features from pulse waves and generalizing these insights for precise BP estimation.

Article Synopsis
  • Collision safety is a crucial concern for dual-arm nursing-care robots, and current methods do not effectively coordinate avoiding self-collisions and environmental collisions.
  • An improved motion controlling algorithm is introduced that models robot arms more accurately and uses a gradient projection method to calculate distances for collision avoidance.
  • Testing shows that the enhanced method allows the robot to successfully complete tasks while preventing collisions, suggesting its potential benefits for medical and rehabilitation robots.

Chronic wound healing is a major challenge in clinical practice. Secondary dressing damage and antibiotic resistance are the main obstacles for traditional wound dressings. Resina draconis (RD), a natural resin traditionally used in powder form for wound care, is now considered unsuitable due to the lack of gas permeability and moist environment required for wound healing.

The gait recognition of exoskeletons includes motion recognition and gait phase recognition under various road conditions. The recognition of gait phase is a prerequisite for predicting exoskeleton assistance time. The estimation of real-time assistance time is crucial for the safety and accurate control of lower-limb exoskeletons.

Plants interact with complex microbial communities in which microorganisms play different roles in plant development and health. While certain microorganisms may cause disease, others promote nutrient uptake and resistance to stresses through a variety of mechanisms. Developing plant protection measures requires a deeper comprehension of the factors that influence multitrophic interactions and the organization of phyllospheric communities.
