background platelet rich plasma is known for its hemostatic, adhesive and healing properties in view of the multiple growth factors released from the platelets to the site of wound. the primary objective of this study was to use autologous platelet rich plasma (prp) in wound beds for anchorage of skin grafts instead of conventional methods like sutures, staplers or glue. methods in a single cen...

healing of skin wound is a multi-factorial and complex process. proper treatment of diabetic wounds is still a major clinical challenge. although diabetes mellitus can occur in ruminants, healing of wounds in diabetic ruminants has not yet been investigated. the aim of this study was to evaluate healing of ovine excisional diabetic wound model. eight 4-month-old iranian makoui wethers were equa...

This curriculum presents a framework and key content on skin interity wound care thay is recommended for inclusion in student nurse curricula (general education). With this curriculum, EWMA aims to provide starting point increased standardised education care. EQF level 4 was published as supplement the Journal of Wound Management December 2021.

Breathing-induced location uncertainties of internal structures are still a relevant issue in the radiation therapy of thoracic and abdominal tumours. Motion compensation approaches like gating or tumour tracking are usually driven by low-dimensional breathing signals, which are acquired in real-time during the treatment. These signals are only surrogates of the internal motion of target struct...

This paper presents a parallel real time framework for emotion extraction from video fragments of human movements. Its framework is used for tracking of a waving hand by evaluation of moving skin-colored objects. The tracking analysis demonstrates that acceleration and frequency characteristics of the traced objects are relevant for classification of the emotional expressiveness of human moveme...

Skinner (1938) once defined behavior as a proper subset of organismic activities—those that involve commerce with the outside world. Here I reexamine and reformulate Skinner’s definition to make the underlying conceptual framework more explicit. This framework turns out to be partly morphological and to rely on biological concepts of organism and adaptation. I propose a reformulation of Skinner...

We present an agent-based framework for human hand and head tracking. The benefits of this architecture are that it simplifies system organization, facilitates flexible extension, and supports hierarchical abstraction. The framework employs low-level processing agents that computes motionvector clusters, skin-color patches and edge. Mid-level agents fuse the features computed into hand and head...
