Tafoxiparin, a novel drug candidate for cervical ripening and labor augmentation: results from 2 randomized, placebo-controlled studies.

American journal of obstetrics and gynecology
BACKGROUND: Slow progression of labor is a common obstetrical problem with multiple associated complications. Tafoxiparin is a depolymerized form of heparin with a molecular structure that eliminates the anticoagulant effects of heparin. We report on...

Increased lipocalin-2 vs reduced oxytocin in relation with adiposity, atherogenicity and hematological indices in metabolic syndrome patients with and without prediabetes.

Bratislavske lekarske listy
OBJECTIVES: The neuropeptide hormone- Oxytocin (OXT) and glycoprotein Lipocalin-2 (LCN-2) are strongly associated with cardiometabolic risks of insulin resistance in metabolic syndrome (MetS) and prediabetes (preDM).

Robotically handled whole-tissue culture system for the screening of oral drug formulations.

Nature biomedical engineering
Monolayers of cancer-derived cell lines are widely used in the modelling of the gastrointestinal (GI) absorption of drugs and in oral drug development. However, they do not generally predict drug absorption in vivo. Here, we report a robotically hand...

Touching the social robot PARO reduces pain perception and salivary oxytocin levels.

Scientific reports
Human-human social touch improves mood and alleviates pain. No studies have so far tested the effect of human-robot emotional touch on experimentally induced pain ratings, on mood and on oxytocin levels in healthy young adults. Here, we assessed the ...

Three machine learning algorithms and their utility in exploring risk factors associated with primary cesarean section in low-risk women: A methods paper.

Research in nursing & health
Machine learning, a branch of artificial intelligence, is increasingly used in health research, including nursing and maternal outcomes research. Machine learning algorithms are complex and involve statistics and terminology that are not common in he...

A wearable soft robot that can alleviate the pain and fear of the wearer.

Scientific reports
Social soft robotics may provide a new solution for alleviating human pain and fear. Here, we introduce a hand-held soft robot that can be clenched by the wearer. The robot comprises small airbags that can be inflated to provide the wearer with a fee...

Robot therapy aids mental health in patients with hematological malignancy during hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in a protective isolation unit.

Scientific reports
Patients with hematological malignancy experience physical and psychological pain, such as a sense of isolation and confinement due to intensive chemotherapy in a protective isolation unit (PIU). We examined whether the intervention of a robotic pupp...
