: The integration of maternal and child health services (MCH) with routine immunization is an important global health strategy, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). However, evidence is lacking regarding the best practices for service integration and the effect of integration on immunization and linked health service outcomes. : We searched publication databases and gray literature for articles published between 2011 and 2020 that include approaches to integrating MCH services with immunizations during the first two years of life in LMICs.

Prehospital medical care is a major challenge for both civilian and military situations as resources are limited, yet critical triage and treatment decisions must be rapidly made. Prehospital medicine is further complicated during mass casualty situations or remote applications that require more extensive medical treatments to be monitored. It is anticipated on the future battlefield where air superiority will be contested that prolonged field care will extend to as much 72 h in a prehospital environment.

Additive Manufacturing of a Frost-Detection Resistive Sensor for Optimizing Demand Defrost in Refrigeration Systems.

Sensors (Basel)

December 2024

Department of Electromechanical Engineering, University of Beira Interior, Rua Marquês d'Ávila e Bolama, 6201-001 Covilhã, Portugal.

This article presents the development of a resistive frost-detection sensor fabricated using Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) with a conductive filament. This sensor was designed to enhance demand-defrost control in industrial refrigeration systems. Frost accumulation on evaporator surfaces blocks airflow and creates a thermal insulating barrier that reduces heat exchange efficiency, increasing energy consumption and operational costs.

Conventional floating bridge systems used during emergency repairs, such as during wartime or after natural disasters, typically rely on passive rubber bearings or semi-active control systems. These methods often limit traffic speed, stability, and safety under dynamic conditions, including varying vehicle loads and fluctuating water levels. To address these challenges, this study proposes a novel Hydraulic Self-Adaptive Bearing System (HABS).

Sudden Fall Detection of Human Body Using Transformer Model.

Sensors (Basel)

December 2024

Department of Industrial Engineering, Chosun University, Gwangju 61452, Republic of Korea.

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.
