Abstract Magnetically coupled rodless cylinders are widely used in the coordinate positioning of mechanical arms, electrostatic paintings, and other industrial applications. However, they exhibit strong nonlinear charact...

Abstract Background Immigrant women can experience high rates of domestic violence and abuse (DVA) and migration trauma. Family or general practitioners (GPs) have limited DVA training or support to manage culturally com...

Abstract Background Mosquito movement is ubiquitous and complicates the design of cluster randomized trials (CRTs) of vector control interventions because it can cause spillover between trial arms. There has been no anal...

Abstract When human instructors guide learners through motor tasks, they seamlessly coordinate physical touch with verbal explanations - a dance teacher positions a student’s arms while describing the movement, a thera...

Abstract Objective Evaluate the effect of combined training on body image (BI), body composition and functional capacity in patients with breast cancer. As also the relationship of BI with body composition and functiona...

BackgroundOpioid overdose remains a leading cause of preventable death in the United States. Existing approaches to identify individuals at elevated risk rely on imprecise rule-based criteria that misclassify patients’...

Abstract Background Obesity is prevalent in Singapore and is a driver of multiple co-morbidities including type 2 diabetes, metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), and cardiovascular disease. Tr...

Background: Chronic lymphedema is a common late effect after completion of head and neck cancer (HNC) treatment, contributing to substantial symptom burden and negatively impacting quality of life. No effective approache...

Abstract BackgroundPulmonary rehabilitation (PR) is a cornerstone for the management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), yet global uptake remains low due to geographic and resource barriers. Dig...

Abstract Background Bowel cancer screening using faecal immunochemical tests (FIT) can detect early signs of bowel cancer and pre-cancerous adenoma. Early detection enables early diagnosis and treatment thereby reducing ...

The relentless pursuit of athletic excellence is shadowed by the equally persistent evolution of performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs). In recent years, the antidoping landscape has been profoundly shaped by the rise of two...

Abstract Background Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFUs) represent a global healthcare challenge, imposing substantial socioeconomic burdens due to their increasing incidence and associated mortality. This study evaluates the eff...

Abstract This work presents the development of a reconfigurable frequency selective surface (RFSS) for application in the 2400-2483.5 MHz band, standard IEEE 802.11b/g/n (Wi-Fi). The proposed RFSS is based on the four-ar...

Abstract The CRISPR‐Cas system constitutes an adaptive immune mechanism in prokaryotes that defends against mobile genetic elements. Within the perpetual co‐evolutionary arms race between bacteria and their viral pre...

Poor posture negatively influences the hemodynamics of the upper extremities. In clinical practice, this is known as Thoracic outlet syndrome. Poor posture leads to muscle imbalances which are solved with the active exer...

Convolutional Neural Network Twin Arm Robot for Automated Packing of Electronic Components is an intellectual robotic system that is developed as a COCA (Collaborative Operation Control Agent) operational handler of the ...

Objectives: The aim of the study was to determine changes in dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) body composition scores in females following exercise-induced body fluid redistribution. Methods: Thirty females comple...

Glucosidase II (GII) plays a key role in glycoprotein biogenesis in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). It is responsible for the sequential removal of the two innermost glucose residues from the glycan (Glc(3)Man(9)GlcNAc(2...

Abstract Background Little is known about health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in immunocompromised people during and after COVID-19 illness. We describe HRQoL outcomes from the EPIC-IC trial, which included participan...

As the key element for optical systems, polarization controllers with versatile functionalities are highly desired. Here, a CMOS-compatible polarization switch is proposed and realized by using a Mach–Zehnder interfero...

Abstract A super redundant serpentine manipulator has slender structure and multiple degrees of freedom. It can travel through narrow spaces and move in complex spaces. This manipulator is composed of many modules that c...

We propose an ultrathin reconfigurable Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) for realizing dynamic frequency and amplitude modulations of spoof surface plasmon (SSP) signal. Active varactor diodes are integrated in the SSP...
