Sudden Fall Detection of Human Body Using Transformer Model.

In human activity recognition, accurate and timely fall detection is essential in healthcare, particularly for monitoring the elderly, where quick responses can prevent severe consequences. This study presents a new fall detection model built on a transformer architecture, which focuses on the movement speeds of key body points tracked using the MediaPipe library. By continuously monitoring these key points in video data, the model calculates real-time speed changes that signal potential falls.

Tungsten Nitride, Well-Dispersed on Porous Carbon: Remarkable Catalyst, Produced without Addition of Ammonia, for the Oxidative Desulfurization of Liquid Fuel.

Polyanilines (pANIs), loaded with phosphotungstic acid (PTA), are pyrolyzed to get WO or W N (≈6 and ≈7 nm, respectively), which is well-dispersed on pANI-derived porous carbons (pDCs). Depending on the pyrolysis temperature, WO /pDC, W N/pDC, or W N-W/pDCs could be obtained selectively. pANI acts as both the precursor of pDC and the nitrogen source for the nitridation of WO into W N during the pyrolysis.

High dose of glucose promotes chondrogenesis via PKCalpha and MAPK signaling pathways in chick mesenchymal cells.

We investigated the molecular mechanism of the glucose effect on the regulation of chondrogenesis. Exposure of chick wing bud mesenchymal cells to high concentrations of glucose stimulated chondrogenesis 2-fold to 2.5-fold without affecting cell proliferation.
