In this paper, a planning method based on the spatiotemporal variable-step-size A* algorithm is proposed to address the problem of safe trajectory planning for incremental, wheeled, mobile robots in complex motion scenarios with multiple robots. After constructing the known conditions, the spatiotemporal variable-step-size A* algorithm is first used to perform a collision-avoiding initial spatiotemporal trajectory search, and a variable time step is utilized to ensure that the robot completes the search at the target speed. Subsequently, the trajectory is instantiated using B-spline curves in a numerical optimization considering constraints to generate the final smooth trajectory. The results of simulation tests in a field-shaped, complex, dynamic scenario show that the proposed trajectory planning method is more applicable, and the results indicate higher efficiency compared to the traditional method in the incremental robot trajectory planning problem.

Introduction: Pharmacists are essential to healthcare delivery in Australia, making effective workforce planning critical to ensure equitable health outcomes. This study explores factors influencing the career decisions of Australian pharmacists from diverse demographic and geographical backgrounds with implications for recruitment, retention and policy strategies to address workforce shortages.
Method: We conducted semi-structured interviews between November 2022-February 2024.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have become a critical focus in robotics research, particularly in the development of autonomous navigation and target-tracking systems. This journal article provides an overview of a multi-year IEEE-hosted drone competition designed to advance UAV autonomy in complex environments. The competition consisted of two primary challenges.

Communication is a salient aspect of coping with cancer. Research suggests that young adult cancer survivors may experience unique challenges, including social isolation, fertility and family planning concerns, dating and marriage, and financial challenges. Little is known, however, about the types of communicative work young breast cancer survivors face.

Objective: Epidemiological data on rare spinal cord malformations in children are lacking in France. Using the national hospital discharge database (PMSI), we studied the care trajectories and estimated the morbidity and mortality burden of these conditions.
Study Design: We conducted a nationwide historical cohort study from 2010 to 2020, including children diagnosed with rare spinal cord diseases within the scope of the C-MAVEM network.

Background: The vertebral artery (VA) undergoes a critical anatomical transition as it pierces the dura mater at the craniocervical junction. Precise knowledge of dural penetration patterns and angulation is essential for diagnostic imaging, neurosurgical planning, and minimizing iatrogenic risk in posterior fossa procedures.
Methods: This retrospective imaging study evaluated 100 adult patients who underwent 1.
