Flinders Medical Centre was experiencing issues with timely discharge and knowing the potential discharges and in-patient bed capacity for the next day. This case study describes the application of 'visual management' theory to discharge processes. The solutions developed were 'patient journey boards' and 'discharge traffic lights'. The implementation of these visual management systems has enabled the hospital to improve its discharge processes.

Advancing precision agriculture with deep learning enhanced SIS-YOLOv8 for Solanaceae crop monitoring.
Front Plant Sci
January 2025
College of Information Technology, Jilin Agricultural University, Changchun, China.
Introduction: Potatoes and tomatoes are important Solanaceae crops that require effective disease monitoring for optimal agricultural production. Traditional disease monitoring methods rely on manual visual inspection, which is inefficient and prone to subjective bias. The application of deep learning in image recognition has led to object detection models such as YOLO (You Only Look Once), which have shown high efficiency in disease identification.

Department of Neurology, Henan Provincial People's Hospital, People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, China.
Introduction: Podocytopathies are a uniquely renal disease syndrome, in which direct or indirect podocyte injury leads to proteinuria or nephrotic syndrome. Of the many factors that contribute to podocytopathies, the abnormal regulation of autophagy, such insufficient or excessive autophagy levels, have been proposed to play a significant role in the occurrence and development of podocytopathies. However, there still has been a lack of systematic and comparative research to elucidate exact role of autophagy in podocytopathies and its current research status.
