Numerical models simulating these testing methods could provide an enhanced understanding of the underlying attachment mechanisms as well as save time and cost in the development of new screws. However, previous numerical models have been limited by compromises between modelling the trabecular structure at high resolution versus incorporating sophisticated mechanical properties and boundary conditions, leading to overestimated mechanical performance. The aim of this study was to overcome these limitations.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>We developed explicit models incorporating the microstructure of trabecular bone, with frictional contact, and a non-linear material model incorporating damage.

Prosthesis provides the closest alternative functional replacement to the loss of a limb. Before any form of rehabilitation support can be offered to amputee patients, an assessment of their degree and level of mobility first needs to be evaluated using the K-level grading system. The typical means towards the assigning of a K-level grading is through qualitative methods, which have been criticized for being subjective and, at times, imprecise. As a means towards remedying this shortcoming, we investigated the prospect of utilizing data from wearable sensors for analyzing the stride pattern and cadence of various subjects towards the quantitative inference of a K-level. This was accomplished using data from accelerometers, alongside advanced signal processing and machine learning models, towards the quantitative identification and differentiation of the various K-levels of amputees of varied levels of mobility. The experimental results showed that this aim could be accomplished under the circumstance investigated and the models applied as part of this research. Additional analysis was also done on the use of data from accelerometers towards the differentiation between amputated and non-amputated subjects, which showed that the cohorts could be classified and differentiated using purely accelerometer data and the accompanying postprocessing methods.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72384,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical engineering advances","volume":"7 ","pages":"Article 100117"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667099224000069/pdfft?md5=6108080486d7a798af1f8c86bd34967f&pid=1-s2.0-S2667099224000069-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139936197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous studies often utilized traditional or non-automatic methods for rhinoplasty evaluation, overlooked the aesthetic harmony of the nose with other facial features, and provided limited descriptions of facial beauty without detailed explanations. To address these limitations, we have developed a deep learning-based system for quantitative and qualitative facial beauty assessment and rhinoplasty results based on the random preoperative and postoperative color photographs of 376 patients, differentiating male and female faces. The quantitative evaluation includes automatically extracting 3D facial key points from frontal and lateral views, developing a novel mathematical 3D facial model, applying seven criteria from rhinoplasty literature, and assigning related scores. The qualitative evaluation comprises the design of a questionnaire, the extraction of facial features using a unique CNN-based algorithm, and the assignment of scores based on the questionnaire's results. Our method calculates the success percentage of rhinoplasty and provides precise and comprehensive quantitative and qualitative beauty scores. The accuracy of the proposed facial feature extraction network is 71 %, which is considered acceptable according to the complexity of defining beauty and the novelty of this work. All procedures and outcomes are verified by an ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) specialist. In particular, based on the presented extensive tables and histograms, some patients have lower postoperative scores than preoperative ones in some instances, which caused negative success scores. For this reason, individuals' appearance may occasionally worsen following rhinoplasty instead of improving. Therefore, preoperative assessments of facial features are crucial, and our proposed system facilitates this process. Our research also impacts individual self-assessment and surgeons' awareness significantly.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":72384,"journal":{"name":"Biomedical engineering advances","volume":"7 ","pages":"Article 100112"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S266709922400001X/pdfft?md5=d53596549fc3808846eb28cd4e7897ec&pid=1-s2.0-S266709922400001X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139458322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this research is to investigate the mechanical behavior of the All-on-Four technique for different boundary conditions such as the value of load, framework material, type and position of implant. The goal was essentially trying to find out, by the application of structural static Finite Element Analysis (FEM), the <em>best</em> design for this specific treatment. After that, a stress-life fatigue numerical analysis was conducted for the optimal configuration in order to estimate the fatigue life in accordance with both Gerber and Goodman mean stress theory. The coupling involved the implants supported by an arch and a human mandible composed of cortical and cancellous part. After the simulations, it was found that the stress/strain field was very sensitive to the boundary conditions imposed. In particular, the position of the implants and the material framework yielded different responses depending on the implant design. Finally the use of ultrashort implants provided a significant decrease in the developed efforts than the long ones if the first premolar position was assumed. More specific, the stress peaks were in the range 100–225MPa for the implants, 300–537MPa for the framework, 50–124MPa for the cortical bone and 3–35MPa for the cancellous bone and they were located essentially in the abutment-framework connection as much as in implant neck-bone coupling. The best design saw the presence of ultra-short implant, first premolar position and Co-Cr alloy as framework material.

In this work, computational modeling was performed to simulate aneurysm progression and to analyze the stress development for a variety of different pressure loading conditions. Image segmentation was utilized to segment one anterior cerebral artery and one anterior communicating artery, both of which were rebuilt to generate aneurysm models at susceptible locations of the aneurysm progression simulation. To represent the various phases of aneurysm development, five different aneurysm sizes with two varying wall thicknesses were identified. The diastolic pressure, the systolic pressure, and the hypertensive pressure were applied to simulate the actual pressure conditions for the anterior cerebral arteries. The rupture risk was determined by analyzing the stress distributions across all of the models. It was estimated that the stresses around the walls of aneurysm varies with an incremental change in both the diameter of the aneurysm and the magnitude of the blood pressure. Aneurysms that were observed to have significant rupture risks were those that had a large diameter and a thin wall and were simulated at high blood pressures.
