OpenMM is a software toolkit for performing molecular simulations on a range of high performance computing architectures. It is based on a layered architecture: the lower layers function as a reusable library that can be invoked by any application, while the upper layers form a complete environment for running molecular simulations. The library API hides all hardware-specific dependencies and optimizations from the users and developers of simulation programs: they can be run without modification on any hardware on which the API has been implemented. The current implementations of OpenMM include support for graphics processing units using the OpenCL and CUDA frameworks. In addition, OpenMM was designed to be extensible, so new hardware architectures can be accommodated and new functionality (e.g., energy terms and integrators) can be easily added.

Managing Lead Fractures in Deep Brain Stimulation for Movement Disorders: A Decade-Long Case Series from a National Neurosurgical Centre.
J Clin Med
December 2024
Hospital Management Department, National Centre for Neurosurgery, 34/1 Turan Avenue, Astana 010000, Kazakhstan.
: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for movement disorders, but its long-term efficacy may be undermined by hardware complications such as lead fractures. These complications increase healthcare costs and necessitate surgical revisions. The frequency, timing, and clinical factors associated with lead fractures remain poorly understood.

Article Synopsis
- Total wrist arthrodesis is an option for treating severe wrist osteoarthritis after other treatments fail, serving as a last-resort procedure.
- Patients generally report satisfaction post-surgery, but may still experience pain and limited wrist movement.
- Frequent complications arise, often relating to incomplete bone fusion or hardware issues, and further research is needed to determine the best implant and treatment approach.
Arthroscopic Anterior-Row Fixation for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Avulsion Injuries.
Arthrosc Tech
November 2024
Arthroscopy and Arthroplasty Unit, RNH Hospital, Nagpur, India.
Anterior cruciate ligament avulsion fractures are more commonly seen in children with open physes than in adults. Arthroscopic fixation is considered the gold standard in the management of such injuries. Our technique of anterior-row fixation for these injuries provides various advantages in the form of physeal-sparing, complete anatomic reduction with no anterior beaking, no arthrofibrosis, no residual instability, no intra-articular hardware, no need for a second operation to remove implants, and finally, a full range of movement with no loss of extension.

Gait simulators play a crucial role in assessing the performance of physical prototypes of prosthetic knees, validating numerical simulation findings, and reducing dependency on user trials during prosthesis development. However, their practical application is limited because of substantial capital investment required for sophisticated high degrees-of-freedom (DOF) system development on one side and insufficient DOF for accurate simulation on the other. In this study, we evaluated the minimum DOF of thigh segment that a gait simulator should have to test the performance of prosthetic knees in a cost-effective manner.

Department of Engineering Management, University of Antwerp, Antwerp, Belgium. Electronic address:
Among various types of memory, working memory (WM) plays a crucial role in reasoning, decision-making, and behavior regulation. Neuromorphic computing is a well-established engineering approach that offers promising avenues for advancing our understanding of WM processes by mimicking the structure and operation of the human brain using electronic technology. In this work, a digital neuromorphic system is proposed and then implemented in hardware to illustrate the real-time WM process based on the spiking neuron-astrocyte network (SNAN).
