In the field of pervasive computing, wearable devices have been widely used for recognizing human activities.One important area in this research is the recognition of activities of daily living where especially inertial sensors and interaction sensors (like RFID tags with scanners) are popular choices as data sources.Using interaction sensors, howe
Slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) is a common disease of adolescent and the epiphysis is positioned more posteromedially in relation to the femoral neck shaft with varus SCFE; however, posterolateral displacement of the capital epiphysis, valgus SCFE, occurs less frequently.We report a case of valgus SCFE in a 17-year-old boy with hypopituit
A method for calculating the effective thermal conductivity of moisture-containing highly porous foamed polymers is proposed.In this method a non-additive scheme for taking into account the effect of steam diffusion on heat transfer is used.The sequential binary systems (interstitial substance from a liquid and a vapor- gas mixture, as well as a po
Radiation therapy has been used worldwide for many decades as a therapeutic regimen for the treatment of different types of cancer.Just over 50% of cancer patients are treated with radiotherapy alone or with other types of antitumor therapy.Radiation can induce different types of cell damage: directly, it can induce DNA single- and double-strand br
We report the case of a 41-year-old pregnant female who presented with a complicated urinary tract infection.Further imaging revealed left hydronephrosis and filling defects extending from the proximal ureter to the upper pole of the kidney, with the presumed diagnosis body scrub of a fibroepithelial polyp.The patient underwent a four-stage percuta
