Transoral robotic resection of a lingual thyroid: a novel treatment for obstructive sleep apnoea.

BMJ case reports
A 34-year-old woman with a history of congenital hypothyroidism and 15 years of obstructive sleep apnoea was admitted with a left submandibular swelling secondary to a dental infection. A CT scan of the neck identified an incidental 27 mm tongue base...

A Survey of Human Activity Recognition in Smart Homes Based on IoT Sensors Algorithms: Taxonomies, Challenges, and Opportunities with Deep Learning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Recent advances in Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and the reduction in the cost of sensors have encouraged the development of smart environments, such as smart homes. Smart homes can offer home assistance services to improve the quality of lif...

Robotic devices for paediatric rehabilitation: a review of design features.

Biomedical engineering online
Children with physical disabilities often have limited performance in daily activities, hindering their physical development, social development and mental health. Therefore, rehabilitation is essential to mitigate the adverse effects of the differen...

Intravenous Iron Replacement Improves Exercise Tolerance in COPD: A Single-Blind Randomized Trial.

Archivos de bronconeumologia
INTRODUCTION: Iron deficiency affects exercise capacity because of the critical role iron plays in the optimal functioning of skeletal muscle metabolism. We hypothesized that intravenous iron may improve exercise tolerance, quality of life (QoL), and...

Deep learning based smart health monitoring for automated prediction of epileptic seizures using spectral analysis of scalp EEG.

Physical and engineering sciences in medicine
Being one of the most prevalent neurological disorders, epilepsy affects the lives of patients through the infrequent occurrence of spontaneous seizures. These seizures can result in serious injuries or unexpected deaths in individuals due to acciden...

Maximizing the Benefits of Participatory Design for Human-Robot Interaction Research With Older Adults.

Human factors
OBJECTIVE: We reviewed human-robot interaction (HRI) participatory design (PD) research with older adults. The goal was to identify methods used, determine their value for design of robots with older adults, and provide guidance for best practices.

The Role of Deep Learning-Based Echocardiography in the Diagnosis and Evaluation of the Effects of Routine Anti-Heart-Failure Western Medicines in Elderly Patients with Acute Left Heart Failure.

Journal of healthcare engineering
OBJECTIVE: The role of deep learning-based echocardiography in the diagnosis and evaluation of the effects of routine anti-heart-failure Western medicines was investigated in elderly patients with acute left heart failure (ALHF).

Daily Human Activity Recognition Using Non-Intrusive Sensors.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
In recent years, Artificial Intelligence Technologies (AIT) have been developed to improve the quality of life of the elderly and their safety in the home. This work focuses on developing a system capable of recognising the most usual activities in t...

Efficacy of da Vinci robot-assisted lymph node surgery than conventional axillary lymph node dissection in breast cancerĀ - A comparative study.

The international journal of medical robotics + computer assisted surgery : MRCAS
BACKGROUND: da Vinci robot-assisted axillary lymph node dissection (dVALND) can be a minimally invasive technique to minimize post-operative complications.
