Article Abstract
The dynamic measurement and identification of structural deformation are essential for structural health monitoring. Traditional contact-type displacement monitoring inevitably requires the arrangement of measurement points on physical structures and the setting of stable reference systems, which limits the application of dynamic displacement measurement of structures in practice. Computer vision-based structural displacement monitoring has the characteristics of non-contact measurement, simple installation, and relatively low cost. However, the existing displacement identification methods are still influenced by lighting conditions, image resolution, and shooting-rate, which limits engineering applications. This paper presents a data fusion method for contact acceleration monitoring and non-contact displacement recognition, utilizing the high dynamic sampling rate of traditional contact acceleration sensors. It establishes and validates an accurate estimation method for dynamic deformation states. The structural displacement is obtained by combining an improved KLT algorithm and asynchronous multi-rate Kalman filtering. The results show that the presented method can help improve the displacement sampling rate and collect high-frequency vibration information compared with only the vision measurement technique. The normalized root mean square error is less than 2% for the proposed method.

Objectives: Cervical cancer is a serious threat to women's life and health and has a high mortality rate. Colposcopy is an important method for early clinical cervical cancer screening, but the traditional vaginal dilator has problems such as discomfort in use and cumbersome operation. For this reason, this study aims to design an intelligent vaginal dilatation system to automate colposcopy and enhance patient comfort.

The usability and versatility of autoinjectors in managing chronic and autoimmune diseases have made them increasingly attractive in medicine. However, investigations into autoinjector designs require an understanding of the kinematic properties and fluid behaviour during injection. To optimise injection efficiency, this study develops a mathematical and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of an IM autoinjector by investigating the effects of viscosity, needle length, needle diameter, and medication volume on the injection process.

Onchocerciasis is a neglected tropical disease that has severe health and socioeconomic impacts on the mostly poor and underserved communities in disease-endemic areas. Despite significant global progress toward the elimination of onchocerciasis transmission there remains a high risk of reemergence in areas where the disease was previously eliminated. Here we discuss the potential risk factors for the reemergence of onchocerciasis in disease-free zones in Sudan and nearby countries resulting from war-induced massive population displacement.

Purpose: To investigate associations among expanded field swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) biomarkers and the development of tractional retinal detachment (TRD) in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).
Methods: Patients with PDR without TRD at baseline were imaged with SS-OCTA. Quantitative and qualitative OCTA metrics were independently evaluated by two trained graders.
