Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) dominated the market due to their relatively high energy/power density, and long cycle life. However, a multitude of factors need to be addressed which have hindered further development of LIBs such as limited current den...
The mechanical properties of soft materials are used in a wide range of fields and applications including biomedical engineering, sports, and automobile industry, in addition to medical applications. Therefore, several methods have been used to measu...
Background/Objectives: Individuals with a spinal cord injury (SCI) experience reductions in lower-extremity muscle mass and increased fatty-infiltration of skeletal muscle, predisposing them to an increased risk of specific secondary health condition...
The innovative design of flat panel volume computed tomography (CT) systems has recently led to the emergence of a wide spectrum of new applications for both diagnostic and interventional purposes, such as ultra-high resolution bone imaging, image gu...
Intervertebral disc herniations have been indicated as a possible injury development pathway due to occupational vibration exposures in seated postures through epidemiological investigations. Little experimental evidence exists to corroborate the str...
Mechanical loading of the skeleton during normal weight bearing plays an important role in bone accrual and turnover balance. We recently evaluated bone microarchitecture in the femoral head in 5.6-week-old male Sprague Dawley rats subjected to a 4-d...
Abstract Background Due to changes in the gastrointestinal system in geriatric people, there are higher rates of atypical presentations of common disorders. In order to decrease the mortality rate, an efficient and correct diagnosis should be given f...
Abstract Background Long-term exposure to coal dust causes respiratory disease. In chest computer tomography (CT), pulmonary nodules, pulmonary interstitial fibrosis and emphysema manifest themselves. However, tracheal foreign bodies caused by coal d...
Langowski, Julian K.A.;Singla, Saranshu;Nyarko, Alex;Schipper, Henk;Berg, Frank T., van den;Kaur, Sukhmanjot;Astley, Henry C.;Gussekloo, Sander W.S.;Dhinojwala, Ali;Leeuwen, Johan L., van Background: Mucus and mucus glands are important features of the amphibian cutis. In tree frogs, the mucus glands and their secretions are crucial components of the adhesive digital pads of these animals. Despite a variety of hypothesised functions o...
