Deep-learning-based diagnostic models for transcutaneous oxygen pressure-defined peripheral arterial disease and lower extremity wound healing in patients with diabetic foot.

BACKGROUND: Few studies have evaluated peripheral artery disease (PAD) and wound healing in patients with lower extremity wounds using a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based deep learning algorithm. We aimed to establish a CNN deep-learning model based on transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO2)-annotated wound images for detecting PAD and wound healing in diabetic patients with lower extremity ...

Tandem bulk oxygen diffusion and surface reactions in reducible metal oxides control redox cycle dynamics.

The interplay between bulk oxygen diffusion and surface reactions in reducible metal oxides is key in heterogeneous catalysts, but direct measurements of oxygen mobility, transient kinetics, and in situ spectroscopies have been lacking. Here, we reveal complex dynamic behavior of ceria-zirconia by H2 using transient kinetics via mass spectrometry and in situ Raman and near-ambient pressure x-ray p...
