RibSeg v2: A Large-Scale Benchmark for Rib Labeling and Anatomical Centerline Extraction

Jiancheng Yang, Jason Ken Adhinarta, Ming Li

Automatic rib labeling and anatomical centerline extraction are common prerequisites for various clinical applications. Prior studies either use in-house datasets that are inaccessible to communities, or focus on rib segmentation that neglects the clinical ...

Enhancing Chondrocyte Biosynthetic Activities: Harnessing the Power of Loading-Induced Evolved Temperature

Theofanis Stampoultzis

Chondrocytes within articular cartilage possess the capacity to perceive and react to signals generated by the typical load-bearing actions of daily life, such as walking or running. Articular cartilage is predominantly oriented toward compression-based fu ...

Mimicking Loading-Induced Cartilage Self-Heating in Vitro Promotes Matrix Formation in Chondrocyte-Laden Constructs with Different Mechanical Properties

Dominique Pioletti, Peyman Karami, Naser Nasrollahzadeh Mamaghani, Theofanis Stampoultzis, Yanheng Guo

Articular cartilage presents a mechanically sensitive tissue. Chondrocytes, the sole cell type residing in the tissue, perceive and react to physical cues as signals that significantly modulate their behavior. Hyaline cartilage is a connective tissue with ...

Fatigue behavior of transverse attachments under constant and variable amplitude loading from a Swiss motorway bridge

Alain Nussbaumer, Davide Leonetti, Yukina Takai

This paper investigates the fatigue behavior of non-load-carrying transverse welded steel attachments by reporting on an experimental characterization under constant and variable amplitude loading. Fatigue cracks have been monitored using DIC and ACPD tech ...

Lumbar and thoracic kinematics during step-up: Comparison of three-dimensional angles between patients with chronic low back pain and asymptomatic individuals

Julien Favre, Guillaume Christe

While alterations in spinal kinematics have been repeatedly observed in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP), their exact nature is still unknown. Specifically, there is a need for comprehensive assessments of multisegment spinal angles during daily- ...

Role of a polymorphism in a Hox/Pax-responsive enhancer in the evolution of the vertebrate spine

Denis Duboule

Patterning of the vertebrate skeleton requires the coordinated activity of Hox genes. In particular, Hox10 proteins are essential to set the transition from thoracic to lumbar vertebrae because of their rib-repressing activity. In snakes, however, the thor ...

X-ray phase contrast imaging of the bone-cartilage interface

Synoyial joints articulate in a lubricating environment, the system providing for smooth articulation. The articular cartilage overlying the bone consists of a network of collagen fibres. This network is essential to cartilage integrity, suffering damage i ...

Effect of inclined ribs on the Aero-Thermal performance of a trailing edge cavity with crossing jets

Emanuele Facchinetti, Tony Arts

The present contribution is devoted to the aero-thermal experimental study of a trapezoidal cross-section model, reproducing a trailing edge cooling cavity with one rib-roughened wall and slots along two opposite walls. Four rib geometries are compared to ...

Bits through ARQs: Spectrum sharing with a primary packet system

Michael Christoph Gastpar

We study a problem motivated by cognitive radio in which the primary is a packet system that employs ARQ feedback. A secondary system is allowed to transmit in the same frequency band provided it ensures that the primary attains a specified target rate. Th ...
