Observational studies have reported high comorbidity between obesity and severe COVID-19.The aim of this study is to explore whether genetic factors are involved in the co-occurrence of the two traits.Based on the available genome-wide association studies (GWAS) summary statistics, we explored the genetic correlation and performed cross-trait meta-
Physiotherapy is part of the overall care in an interdisciplinary intensive care unit.Patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) were previously deemed to be too unstable to mobilise.Safety is of paramount importance as these patients often have multiple large cannulas, monitoring and lines.Mobilisation protocols should be in place, Com
Common complications in PMV include changes in the airway clearance mechanism, pulmonary function, and respiratory muscle strength, as well as chest radiological changes such as atelectasis.Lung expansion therapy which includes IPPB and PEEP prevents and treats pulmonary atelectasis and improves lung compliance.Our study presented that patients wit
This paper presents an enhanced Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) framework for mobile robot navigation.It integrates RGB-D cameras and 2D LiDAR sensors to improve both mapping accuracy and localization efficiency.We propose a data fusion strategy where RGB-D point clouds are projected into 2D and denoised alongside LiDAR data.Late fusio
