Abstract:
Background and highlights are presented concerning the development of a new orthotic system judged to be “the most outstanding innovation in prosthetics and/or orthotics practice” during the 1986-1989 period. The first Brian Blatchford Prize was awarded at the Sixth World Congress of ISPO held in Kobe, Japan, November 12-17, 1989. The new development selected as most deserving of this award consists of a system utilizing inexpensive, lightweight, modular components which can be quickly assembled with a few hand tools to provide custom-fitted knee-ankle-foot orthoses for persons with paraplegia

Abstract:
Modular construction brings improved safety and mitigates risks of hazard and injury. However, modular construction technology is also challenged with a degree of uncertainty resulting from such internal and external factors as engineering, occupational, cultural, socio-economic, and financial. Since modular construction is by nature distinct from conventional construction, existing risk management research for onsite construction cannot be directly applied to modular construction. This paper describes research on the risk management associated with modular construction, focusing on: (1) ident

Abstract:
Treatment of high-energy distal femoral fractures is highly demanding. Advances in osteosynthesis tech­niques now allow for successful treatment, but extensive bone defects associated with the injury can preclude stable bone healing. Modular arthroplasty may be an effective alternative in such cases. Most commonly used during periarticular tumour resection procedures, modular arthroplasty enables functional recovery of the limb. It has been proven to be effective also in traumatic bone defects. The most important limitation of this method is a high level of technical difficulty and possible co

Abstract:
In recent years, the prevalence of acquired brain injury (ABI) has been on the rise, leading to impaired gait functionality in affected individuals. Traditional gait exoskeletons are typically rigid and bilateral and lack adaptability. To address this, the STELO, a pioneering modular gait-assistive device, was developed. This device can be externally configured with joint modules to cater to the diverse impairments of each patient, aiming to enhance adaptability and efficiency. This study aims to assess the safety and usability of the initial functional modular prototype, STELO, in a sample of

Background. Osteoprotegerin (OPG) is a soluble glycoprotein of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor superfamily, which was initially identified as a key regulator in bone turnover. It acts as a decoy receptor for the receptor activator of nuclear factor kB ligand (RANKL) and for the TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), counterbalancing their biological effects. OPG is produced by a wide range of tissues, including the cardiovascular system, and its levels are particularly high in aortic and renal arteries. Several studies have clearly demonstrated that the serum levels of OPG are

Chondroitin sulphate (CS) has been described as contributing to the barrier function of the urothelium by forming a glycosaminoglycan (GAG) layer.

Abstract:
Abstract Collaborative robots (Cobots) are designed to allow humans to interact and work with them in close proximity. Although they are power- and force-limited compared to traditional industrial robots, residual injury risks in the event of a collision will cause Cobots to be operated at a reduced speed when humans are nearby. This compromises the ability to achieve manufacturing cycle time targets. Outlining safe zones around Cobots may allow quicker operations, but this approach poses challenges to manufacturing efficiency and leads to an increased robot footprint over a true collaborative

Abstract:
First aid represents the simplest urgent measures necessary to save the lives of victims of injuries, accidents and sudden illnesses. Providing first aid greatly increases the chances of salvation in case of bleeding, injury, cardiac and respiratory arrest, and prevents complications such as shock, massive blood loss, additional displacement of bone fragments and injury to large nerve trunks and blood vessels. This electronic educational resourse consists of four theoretical educational modules: legal aspects of providing first aid to victims and work safety when providing first aid; providing

Under the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Assistance to Firefighter Grant Fire Prevention and Safety Research Program, Underwriters Laboratories examined fire service concerns of photovoltaic (PV) systems. These concerns include firefighter vulnerability to electrical and casualty hazards when mitigating a fire involving photovoltaic (PV) modules systems. The need for this project is significant acknowledging the increasing use of photovoltaic systems, growing at a rate of 30% annually.
