The potential of Spirulina platensis to substitute antibiotics in Japanese quail diets: impacts on growth, carcass traits, antioxidant status, blood biochemical parameters, and cecal microorganisms.

Poultry science
The development of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms prompted the investigation of possible antibiotic substitutes. As a result, the purpose of the current study is to assess the effect of dietary Spirulina platensis extract as an antibiotic altern...

Acute effects of robot-assisted body weight unloading on biomechanical movement patterns during overground walking.

Journal of biomechanics
Body weight unloading (BWU) is used in rehabilitation/training settings to reduce kinetic requirements, however different BWU methods may be unequally capable of preserving biomechanical movement patterns. Biomechanical analysis of both kinetic and k...

Active Human-Following Control of an Exoskeleton Robot With Body Weight Support.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics
This article presents an active human-following control of the lower limb exoskeleton for gait training. First, to improve safety, considering the human balance, the OpenPose-based visual feedback is used to estimate the individual's pose, then, the ...

Comparison of the carotid corrected flow time and tidal volume challenge for assessing fluid responsiveness in robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery.

Journal of robotic surgery
We aimed to compare the ability of carotid corrected flow time assessed by ultrasound and the changes in dynamic preload indices induced by tidal volume challenge predicting fluid responsiveness in patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic gyne...

Body Weight Estimation for Pigs Based on 3D Hybrid Filter and Convolutional Neural Network.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The measurement of pig weight holds significant importance for producers as it plays a crucial role in managing pig growth, health, and marketing, thereby facilitating informed decisions regarding scientific feeding practices. On one hand, the conven...

Protocol of a parallel, randomized controlled trial on the effects of a novel personalized nutrition approach by artificial intelligence in real world scenario.

BMC public health
BACKGROUND: Nutrition service needs are huge in China. Previous studies indicated that personalized nutrition (PN) interventions were effective. The aim of the present study is to identify the effectiveness and feasibility of a novel PN approach supp...

The Feasibility of Using a Deep Learning-Based Model to Determine Cardiac Computed Tomographic Contrast Dose.

Journal of computer assisted tomography
PURPOSE: This study aimed to predict contrast effects in cardiac computed tomography (CT) from CT localizer radiographs using a deep learning (DL) model and to compare the prediction performance of the DL model with that of conventional models based ...

Comparison of the data mining and machine learning algorithms for predicting the final body weight for Romane sheep breed.

PloS one
The current study aimed to predict final body weight (weight of fourth months of age to select the future reproducers) by using birth weight, birth type, sex, suckling weight, age at suckling weight, weaning weight, age at weaning weight, and age of ...

Contact feedback helps snake robots propel against uneven terrain using vertical bending.

Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Snakes can bend their elongate bodies in various forms to traverse various environments. We understand well how snakes use lateral body bending to push against asperities on flat ground for propulsion, and snake robots can do so effectively. However,...

Predicting dry weight change in Hemodialysis patients using machine learning.

BMC nephrology
BACKGROUND: Machine Learning has been increasingly used in the medical field, including managing patients undergoing hemodialysis. The random forest classifier is a Machine Learning method that can generate high accuracy and interpretability in the d...
