ObjectiveRecent decades have brought an increased survival of children with Neurologic Impairment (NI) but malnutrition and digestive comorbidity remain important challenges to face.We designed the present study to assess the course of nutritional status following standardized Home Enteral Nutrition (HEN) program and to evaluate impact of changing
Many wearable devices include PPG (photoplethysmography) sensors for non-invasive heart rate monitoring.However, PPG signals are heavily corrupted by motion interference, and rely on simultaneous motion measurements to remove the interference.Accelerometers are Vitamin B6 used commonly, but cannot differentiate between acceleration due to movement
The purpose of this study is to simulate unsteady steam flows through three-stage stator and rotor blade passages in a Recorders middle-pressure steam turbine operated in a power plant while considering manufactured and secular-changed blade shapes.The shapes of the manufactured and secular-changed blades are measured during overhaul.The numerical
We developed a computational model of the propagation of retinal ischemia in diabetic retinopathy and analyzed the consequences of various patterns and sizes of burns in peripheral retinal photocoagulation.The model addresses IEC retinal ischemia as a phenomenon of adverse local feedback in which once a capillary is occluded there is an elevated pr
