Excitation energy transfer is a ubiquitous process of fundamental importance for understanding natural phenomena, such as photosynthesis, as well as advancing technologies ranging from photovoltaics t...
Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a proposed marker of cardiovascular risk; however, clinical application may be limited by variability in post-processing software platforms. We assessed inter-vendor...
Seventy-six consecutive patients undergoing simultaneous CE and NCT had complete volumetric EAT measurement. Between-software, within-software NCT vs. CE, and inter- and intra-observer agreement were ...
Mean EATv (freeware 53 ± 31 mL vs. research 93 ± 43 mL vs. coronary 157 ± 64 mL) and attenuation (freeware - 72 ± 25 HU vs. research - 75 ± 3 HU vs. coronary - 61 ± 10 HU) were significantly different...
There are significant inter-vendor differences in EAT assessment. Our study suggests that research-specific software has better agreement and reproducibility compared to freeware or coronary software ...
• There are significant differences between EAT volume and attenuation values between software platforms, regardless of scan type. • Non-contrast scans routinely have higher mean EAT volume and attenu...
Regular hygiene trainings are an important way to refresh and improve knowledge about hygiene measures and the prevention of healthcare-associated infections. We aimed to develop an e-learning course ...
We developed an interactive hygiene training for HCWs of a tertiary care hospital using different content types of the HTML-5 package (H5P) plugin embedded into a Moodle-based learning management syst...
We present various suitable topics for online hygiene trainings as well as their implementation in an e-learning course. Examples include content on hand hygiene indications and techniques, informatio...
Currently available commercial and non-commercial hygiene trainings present a number of specific advantages but also drawbacks. The presented approach combines the advantages of both approaches. The m...
H5P course presentations are a low-threshold, cost-effective way to implement digital hygiene trainings in a wide variety of clinical settings....
High precision intra-oral scans, coupled with advanced software, enable virtual bracket removal (VBR) from digital models. VBR allows the delivery of retainers and clear aligners promptly following de...
Maxillary scans of 20 participants starting orthodontic treatment were selected for inclusion in the study, who exhibited mild to moderate crowding and required bonding of brackets on the labial surfa...
There was a significant difference among the 3Shape, Meshmixer, and EasyRx software in tooth surface change following VBR. Specifically, EasyRx exhibited lower levels of accuracy compared to the other...
3Shape and Meshmixer manual VBR software were found to be more accurate than EasyRx automated software, however, the differences were minimal and clinically insignificant....

Public health surveillance traditionally occurs at a health facility; however, there is growing concern that this provides only partial and untimely health information. Community-based surveillance (C...
We conducted a scoping review of academic literature and supplemental resources and conducted qualitative interviews with stakeholders working with digital community health and surveillance tools....
All of the tools reviewed have features necessary to support the reporting process of CBS; only 3 (CommCare, Community Health Toolkit, and DHIS2 Tracker) provided all 10 attributes included in the map...
The findings demonstrate that several software tools are available to facilitate public health surveillance at the community level. In the future, emphasis should be put on contextualizing these tools...
Several raw-data processing software for accelerometer-measured physical activity (PA) exist, but whether results agree has not been assessed. We examined the agreement between three different softwar...
Computer-assisted arthroplasty supports the surgeons in planning, simulating, and performing the replacement procedure, using robotic or navigation technologies. However, the safety of the technology ...
The Medical Device Recalls database was investigated about software-related recalls in computer-assisted hip and knee arthroplasty surgery, between 2017 and 2022. The incidence of the software-related...
Eighteen recall numbers could be identified (1.6%), corresponding to 11 recall events. A total of 4634 units were involved. The FDA determined root causes were: software design (66.6%), design change ...
Software-related recalls in computer-assisted hip and knee arthroplasty were quite uncommon among all the recalls, deemed non-life threatening and usually due to software design errors. The main actio...
Genotyping and sequencing technologies produce increasingly large numbers of genetic markers with potentially high rates of missing or erroneous data. Therefore, the construction of linkage maps is mo...
In this context, the SeSAM software allows automatic genetic map construction using seriation and placement approaches, to produce (1) a high-robustness framework map which includes as many markers as...
SeSAM is a fully automatic linkage mapping software designed to (1) produce a framework map as robust as desired by optimizing the selection of a subset of markers, and (2) produce a high-density map ...
Artificial intelligence (AI) software in radiology is becoming increasingly prevalent and performance is improving rapidly with new applications for given use cases being developed continuously, often...
