From spasms to smiles: how facial recognition and tracking can quantify hemifacial spasm severity and predict treatment outcomes.
Acta Neurochir (Wien)
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, University Medicine Greifswald, Greifswald, Germany.
Purpose: Currently available grading and classification systems for hemifacial spasm either rely on subjective assessments or are excessively intricate. Here, we make use of facial recognition and facial tracking technologies towards accurately grouping patients according to severity and characteristics of the spasms.
Methods: A retrospective review of our prospectively maintained preoperative videos database for hemifacial spasm was done.

Background Generalized anxiety disorder is one of the most prevalent mental disorders, characterized by excessive anxiety and worry that affect both mental and physical health. These pervasive illnesses have a crippling effect on people's everyday lives, quality of life, and wellness and are also highly linked with cardiovascular risk factors. Physical activity-based therapies have shown promising effects in treating a range of mental disorders, from psychosis to dementia.

Prescribing correct training loads in strength- and power-based sports is essential to eliciting performance improvements for athletes. Concurrently, testing strength for the prescription of training loads should be accurate and safe with minimal disruption or fatigue inducement to the athlete. The purpose of this study was to develop a prediction equation in female athletes for the three-repetition maximum (3RM) squat using the isometric mid-thigh pull and basic anthropometric assessments that could be practically applied to support training prescriptions.

Article Synopsis
- Obesity is a complex condition linked to excessive fat accumulation, especially in the abdominal area, which can harm health by increasing inflammation.
- This study focused on 12 sedentary, overweight, and obese young men and assessed the effects of one strength training session on their blood levels of resistin and leptin, two important adipokines.
- Results showed that the strength training significantly decreased resistin levels one hour post-exercise, while leptin levels remained unchanged, suggesting that exercise may help reduce inflammation and improve insulin resistance in overweight and obese individuals.
