Pregnant women with congenital heart disease carry a high risk of complications, especially when cardiac function is suboptimal. Increasing evidence suggests that impaired right ventricular (RV) function has a negative effect on placental function, possibly through venous congestion. We report a case series of hepatic and renal venous flow patterns in pregnant women with right ventricular dysfunction after repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF), relative to those observed in normal pregnancy and preeclampsia.

Human activity recognition by radar sensors plays an important role in healthcare and smart homes. However, labeling a large number of radar datasets is difficult and time-consuming, and it is difficult for models trained on insufficient labeled data to obtain exact classification results. In this paper, we propose a multiscale residual weighted classification network with large-scale, medium-scale, and small-scale residual networks.

Objectives: To evaluate the role of shear wave elastography (SWE) in distinguishing acute from subacute thrombi in thrombosed arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) and explore the relationship between thrombus stiffness and outcomes of balloon angioplasty.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective study included 44 dialysis patients with thrombosed AVFs from June 2022 to June 2024. Patients underwent Doppler ultrasound and SWE to assess thrombus age, followed by balloon angioplasty.

Objectives: Although myoclonus less than or equal to 72 hours after cardiac arrest (CA) is often viewed as a single entity, there is considerable heterogeneity in its clinical and electrophysiology characteristics, and its strength of association with outcome. We reviewed definitions, electroencephalogram, and outcome of myoclonus post-CA to assess the need for consensus and the potential role of electroencephalogram for further research.

In recent years, civil engineering has increasingly embraced communication tools for automation, with sensors playing a pivotal role, especially in structural health monitoring (SHM). These sensors enable precise data acquisition, measuring parameters like force, displacement, and temperature and transmit data for timely interventions to prevent failures. This approach reduces reliance on manual inspections, offering more accurate outcomes.
