Providing real-time crowding information in urban railways would enable informed travel decisions and encourage cooperative behavior of passengers, as well improve operating efficiency safety. However, the problem prediction is not trivial because unavailability ground-truth data, particularly for direct impact on passengers (e.g., denied boarding platforms). This paper proposes a data-driven m...

Abstract Background The purpose of the study is to investigate changes macular perfusion by OCT-angiography (OCT-A) after uncomplicated phacoemulsification. Methods OCT-A was performed before cataract surgery, 1 week, month, and 3 months surgery recording superficial vascular complex (SVC), nerve fiber layer plexus (NFLVP), (SVP), deep (DVC), intermediate capillary (ICP) (DCP), as well large ch...

Food-derived bioactive peptides are promising ingredients for developing functional foods and nutraceuticals due to their putative safety, low cost, multiple health benefits. Chicken egg is considered a major source of dietary protein, lipids, vitamins, minerals but also highly allergenic. The aim this work was investigate the inherent properties chicken ovalbumin using in silico approaches. Ov...

This paper presents an algorithm for predicting the arrival time of transit vehicles using a combination of both AVL and historical data. The algorithm is presented in its two components: tracking (using a Kalman filter framework) and prediction (using statistical estimation). The algorithm produces an estimate of the predicted arrival time for a given transit vehicle and provides a measure of ...

A 63-year old female was admitted with sudden unbearable retrosternal chest pain which started immediately after a heated argument with her daughterin-law. There were no cardiovascular risk factors. Examination was normal and electrocardiogram (ECG) showed ST elevation in leads I, aVL, and V6 and ST depression with T inversion in lead III, aVF (Figure). Troponin I was 4.43 ng/ml (normal < 0.04 ...

A 52-year-old woman with a history of hypertension and hyperlipidaemia presented to our institution with a 4-hour history of severe, compressing chest pain. A 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) showed STelevation involving leads I and aVL, while the anterior precordial leads were unremarkable (Fig 1a). The provisional diagnosis was a non–high-risk high-lateral myocardial infarction (MI) due to dia...
