Published: December 1993

Unlabelled: The great increase in hemapheresis units activity that occurred during the last years caused the need for a computer-aided management (1, 2). We present a project for a data base system able to manage therapeutical apheresis (3). The program consists of five sections. a) Patient's file card: it allows to record anamnesis, examination and blood test results easily and under computer's guidance. b) Choice of therapeutic protocol: Therapeutic protocol is fixed in this section (device to be used, apheretic method, plasma volume to be processed, blood tests before and after apheresis). c)

Procedures: It provides procedure's data entry and guides the operator during the treatment on the ground of therapeutical protocol. d) Data processing: It allows statistics on data placed in the data base. e) Registers: It includes both a general register and the possibility of search by disease, device and method.

Digital workflows have revolutionized dentistry, especially when it comes to fabrication of complete dentures through Computer-Aided Design and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAD-CAM) procedures. Digital articulators manage to simulate mandibular movements and are emerging as alternatives to mechanical articulators like the Gerber semi-adjustable model. Despite being a promising tool, digital articulators require refinement in order to grant consistent functionality and effective occlusal balance.

Background And Objectives: Hypertensive Retinopathy (HR) is a retinal manifestation resulting from persistently elevated blood pressure. Severity grading of HR is essential for patient risk stratification, effective management, progression monitoring, timely intervention, and minimizing the risk of vision impairment. Computer-aided diagnosis and artificial intelligence (AI) systems play vital roles in the diagnosis and grading of HR.

Ameliorated Chameleon Algorithm-Based Shape Optimization of Disk Wang-Ball Curves.

Biomimetics (Basel)

December 2024

School of Computer Science and Engineering, Xi'an University of Technology, Xi'an 710048, China.

The shape design and optimization of complex disk curves is a crucial and intractable technique in computer-aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM). Based on disk Wang-Ball (DWB) curves, this paper defines a novel combined disk Wang-Ball (CDWB) curve with constrained parameters and investigates the shape optimization of CDWB curves by using the multi-strategy ameliorated chameleon swarm algorithm (MCSA). Firstly, in order to meet the various shape design requirements, the CDWB curves consisting of DWB curves are defined, and the G and G geometric continuity conditions for the curves are derived.

The current research aims to analyze the shape and structural features of the eggs of the lepidoptera species sp. (Lepidoptera, Nympalidae) and develop design solutions through the implementation of a novel strategy of biomimetic design. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis of the chorion reveals a medial zone that forms an arachnoid grid resembling a ribbed dome with convex longitudinal ribs and concave transverse ring members.

IQUB mutation induces radial spoke 1 deficiency causing asthenozoospermia with normal sperm morphology in humans and mice.

Chongqing Key Laboratory of Human Embryo Engineering and Precision Medicine, Center for Reproductive Medicine, Women and Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, 400010, China.

Background: Asthenozoospermia (ASZ) accounts for about 20-40% of male infertility, and genetic factors, contributing to 30-40% of the causes of ASZ, still need further exploration. Radial spokes (RSs), a T-shaped macromolecular complex, connect the peripheral doublet microtubules (DMTs) to a central pair (CP), forming a CP-RS-DMT structure to regulate the beat frequency and amplitude of sperm flagella. To date, many components of RSs and their functions in human sperm flagella remain unclear.
