Evaluation of adjustment behaviour in a semi-supervised self-adjustment fine-tuning procedure for hearing aids.
Int J Audiol
May 2024
Fraunhofer Institute for Digital Media Technology (IDMT), Oldenburg Branch for Hearing, Speech and Audio Technology (HSA) and Cluster of Excellence "Hearing4All", Oldenburg, Germany.
Objective: This study investigated the adjustment behaviour of hearing aid (HA) users participating in a semi-supervised self-adjustment fine-tuning procedure for HAs. The aim was to link behaviour with the reproducibility and duration of the adjustments.
Design: Participants used a two-dimensional user interface to identify their HA gain preferences while listening to realistic sound scenes presented in a laboratory environment.
Development and Psychometric Validation of the Perinatal Bereavement Care Competence Scale for Midwives.
Asian Nurs Res (Korean Soc Nurs Sci)
August 2022
Department of Community and Geriatrics Nursing, School of Nursing, Southern Medical University, China. Electronic address:
Purpose: The aim of this paper is to develop a scale for measuring the perinatal bereavement care competence of midwives and assess its psychometric properties.
Methods: The Perinatal Bereavement Care Competence Scale was developed in four phases. (1) Item generation: 75 items were formulated based on a literature review and interviews with midwives.
Spherical center axial hinge knee prosthesis causes lower contact stress on tibial insert and bushing compared with biaxial hinge knee prosthesis.
Knee
March 2021
Tianjin Hospital, Tianjin, China. Electronic address:
Background: Motion axial system may affect contact stress of hinge knee prosthesis. However, it is unclear which axial system provides the better biomechanical effect. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the contact stress and stress distribution on the tibial insert and the bushing of hinge knee prostheses with a biaxial (BA) system and a spherical center axial (SA) system during a gait cycle.

J Neuroeng Rehabil
March 2020
Neural Rehabilitation Group, Cajal Institute, Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), Av. Doctor Arce, 37, 28002, Madrid, Spain.
This paper reviews the technological advances and clinical results obtained in the neuroprosthetic management of foot drop. Functional electrical stimulation has been widely applied owing to its corrective abilities in patients suffering from a stroke, multiple sclerosis, or spinal cord injury among other pathologies. This review aims at identifying the progress made in this area over the last two decades, addressing two main questions: What is the status of neuroprosthetic technology in terms of architecture, sensorization, and control algorithms?.

Ann Plast Surg
January 2019
Department of Plastic Surgery, Kyung Hee University Medical Center.
Background: Although clinical trials have successfully applied microplates for the internal fixation of single or double isolated mandibular fractures, the use of microplate systems in comminuted mandibular fractures is not widely accepted. This study aimed to evaluate the use of microplates for internal fixation of comminuted mandible fractures and to discuss their applicability.
Methods: Fourteen patients with comminuted mandibular fractures (10 at a single region, 3 at 2 regions, and 1 at 4 regions) were treated with open reduction and internal fixation using 0.
