Real-world gait speed estimation, frailty and handgrip strength: a cohort-based study

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Abolfazl Soltani

Gait speed is a reliable outcome measure across multiple diagnoses, recognized as the 6th vital sign. The focus of the present study was on assessment of gait speed in long-term real-life settings with the aim to: (1) demonstrate feasibility in large cohor ...

No difference in 13-year survival after medial pivot or central pivot mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty. A propensity matched comparative analysis

Brigitte Jolles-Haeberli

Purpose The present study was designed to evaluate the long-term results (more than 10 years) of mobile bearing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and to compare the survival of medial pivot axis (MPA) and central pivot axis (CPA) TKAs. The primary hypothesis w ...

Expression of Prox1 in Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma Is Associated with Chromogranin A and Calcitonin Expression and with Ki67 Proliferative Index, but Not with Prognosis

Medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) has been shown to express Prospero homeobox protein 1 (Prox1), a transcription factor whose expression is altered in a variety of human cancers. We conducted a retrospective study on a series of 32 patients with MTC to tes ...

Investigation of local scour around tandem piers for different skew-angles

Anton Schleiss, Giovanni De Cesare, Sargol Memar

In the present study the effect of the skew-angle of the alignment of tandem piers on local scour depth around them is investigated. The tandem piers were aligned with different skew-angles of 𝜃𝜃 = 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90° with respect to the flow direction. ...

Exosome-inspired targeting of cancer cells with enhanced affinity

Mohammad Mahdi Hasani-Sadrabadi, Ardalan Hosseini, Hasan Pezeshgi Modarres

One of the major challenges in the area of novel drug delivery systems (NDDSs) is finding distinguished ligands for specific receptors represented by many cancer cells in order to enhance their cancer homing efficacy. Exosomes, the so-called natural nanoca ...

Mode selection in trailing vortices: harmonic response of the non-parallel Batchelor vortex

François Gallaire, Francesco Viola, Cristobal Manuel Arratia Martinez

In the present study, the response of model trailing vortices subjected to a harmonic forcing is studied. To this purpose, a globally stable non-parallel Batchelor vortex is considered as the baseflow. Direct numerical simulations (DNS) show that a large v ...

The wheelchair as a full-body tool extending the peripersonal space

Olaf Blanke, Andrea Serino, Jean-Paul Noel, Elisa Canzoneri

Dedicated multisensory mechanisms in the brain represent peripersonal space (PPS), a limited portion of space immediately surrounding the body. Previous studies have illustrated the malleability of PPS representation through hand-object interaction, showin ...

Optimized MEGA-SPECIAL for in vivo glutamine detection in the rat brain at 14.1 T

Rolf Gruetter, Cristina Ramona Cudalbu, Mélanie Craveiro

Glutamine has multiple roles in brain metabolism and its concentration can be altered in various pathological conditions. An accurate knowledge of its concentration is therefore highly desirable to monitor and study several brain disorders in vivo. However ...

Imagined own-body transformations during passive self-motion

Olaf Blanke, Michiel van Elk

Spatial perspective taking is a crucial social skill that underlies many of our everyday interactions. Previous studies have suggested that spatial perspective taking is an embodied process that involves the integration of both motor and proprioceptive inf ...

Approaching on-line estimation of swimming instantaneous velocity using a wearable IMU

Kamiar Aminian, Farzin Dadashi, Grégoire Millet

The goal of this study is to assess the possibility of accurate on-line instantaneous velocity estimation in swimming. Having an on-line tool, coaches could provide immediate feedback about performance to trainees. More importantly, by on-line monitoring o ...
