Introduction: Bowel urgency has recently been recognized as a Crohn's disease (CD) symptom that substantially impacts patients' quality of life. The Urgency NRS is a single-item patient-reported outcome measure assessing bowel urgency severity in the past 24 h (0-10 scale). We aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Urgency Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) in adults with moderately to severely active CD and to estimate thresholds for meaningful improvement and bowel urgency remission.

Introduction: The purpose of this study was to assess and compare the effectiveness of seven different closed system transfer device (CSTD) product lines following the 2015 NIOSH Vapor Containment Performance Protocol, using a Gasmet™ DX5000 Terra multigas FTIR analyzer.
Methods: Seven different CSTD systems were assessed using a two-task evaluation on their capacity to contain the NIOSH-specified challenge agent, 70% isopropyl alcohol (IPA). Task 1 simulated reconstitution and compounding steps while Task 2 simulated compounding and administration steps.

Background And Objectives: Colorectal lesions can present as a mass or as focal or diffuse thickening of the colon wall and may also be associated with abnormalities in the perienteric region. Multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) enables simultaneous imaging of both extracolonic structures and the gut wall. It is instrumental in assessing tumor extent, detecting pericolic dissemination, including lymph node involvement, and identifying metastases.

The current industrial wireless sensor network (IWSN) cluster routing methods suffer from energy inefficiency. Designing efficient cluster-based routing protocols is crucial for improving network performance and energy efficiency. Therefore, this paper first designs a new clustering model to achieve efficient cluster head (CH) selection and data transmission performance by comprehensively considering multiple key factors such as CH energy, base station (BS) distance, packet loss rate, and data delay.
