The reconstructed image of a moving sample always shows a distorted representation of reality. Therefore, one needs to calibrate, for example, out-of-plane nano-videos for quality control of nano-microelectromechanical systems (N-MEMS). Here we discuss how to calibrate and obtain confidence limits for stroboscopic scanning white light interferometry (SSWLI) data when there are differences in speed and amplitude across the field of view. Many N-MEMS devices rely on oscillating structures; consequently, one must calibrate movie recordings of these structures to have global standards and to allow inter-device comparison. We propose to use a quartz tuning fork driven off-resonance as a transfer standard. This approach allows a broad range of traceable frequencies and out-of-plane amplitudes to be introduced into selected parts of the field of view of the SSWLI device featuring similar optical surface properties to many N-MEMS devices without demanding an additional reference surface.

Purpose: Many patients originally transported to non-trauma centers (NTC) require transfer to a trauma center (TC) for treatment. The aim was to analyze injury characteristics and outcomes of transfer patients and investigate the secondary overtriage (SOT).
Methods: Study included 2,056 transfers to an urban level 1 TC between 01/2016 and 06/2020.

The emergence of more than 40 new infectious diseases since the 1980s has emerged as a serious global health concern, many of which are zoonotic. In response, many international organizations, including the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), have developed strategies to combat these health threats. The need for rapid vaccine development has been highlighted by Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and mRNA technology has shown promise as a platform.

Electrochemical glucose sensor holds significant promise for the monitoring of blood glucose levels in diabetic patients. In this study, we proposed a novel electrochemical glucose sensor based on 1,10-Phenanthroline-5,6-dione (PD)/Ru(III) as a dual redox mediator. The synergistic effect of PD and Ru(III) was utilized to efficiently facilitate the electron transfer between the enzyme-active center and the electrode.

Advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques are transforming the study of movement disorders by providing valuable insights into disease mechanisms. This narrative review presents a comprehensive overview of their applications in this field, offering an updated perspective on their potential for early diagnosis, disease monitoring, and therapeutic evaluation. Emerging MRI modalities such as neuromelanin-sensitive imaging, diffusion-weighted imaging, magnetization transfer imaging, and relaxometry provide sensitive biomarkers that can detect early microstructural degeneration, iron deposition, and connectivity disruptions in key regions like the substantia nigra.

A retrospective study of all orthopaedic cases with a hip fracture from 2020 to 2022 at CHC Montlegia has been undertaken, the group is compared to patients with the same impairment from 2018-2020 admitted to Saint Joseph/Esperance CHC hospitals (before the merge and the existence of a DOTR). The delay between the arrival at the emergency department and transfer to the operating room, as well as the mortality are evaluated.
