MEE-Net: a lightweight CNN with interpretability assessment for cardiomegaly detection from chest X-rays on edge devices

Abstract Cardiomegaly is a clinically important indicator of cardiovascular risk, yet its detection from chest radiographs remains challenging due to inter-observer variability and the limited deployability of current deep learning models in resource-constrained settings. To addr...

Sub-THz Channel Characterization and Antenna Array Design for 6G Smart Factory Environments at 140 GHz

The ultra-high data rate and ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) requirements of Industry 4.0 and smart factory applications have made the evaluation of Sub-Terahertz (Sub-THz) frequencies, especially the 140 GHz band, in sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks a con...

General Anesthesia Exposure in Relation to ADHD Symptom Dimensions and ODD Comorbidity in Medication-Naïve Children with ADHD

Background: Evidence regarding the association between early childhood exposure to general anesthesia (GA) and later attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) remains inconsistent. Moreover, the relationship between GA exposure and oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) comorb...

Use of an ACL Tibial Drill Guide to Reduce Radiation Exposure During High Tibial Osteotomy: A Comparative Analysis

Background: Medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (HTO) is an established treatment for medial compartment osteoarthritis in patients with varus alignment. Accurate K-wire placement is essential for a safe and reproducible osteotomy, yet it often requires repeated fluoroscopic...

Real-Time Webcam-Based Eye Tracking for AI-Assisted Reading Analysis in Web Environments

This study investigates real-time, webcam-based eye tracking as a low-cost and scalable alternative for AI-assisted reading analysis in web environments, aiming to address the limitations of hardware-dependent eye tracking systems highlighted in existing literature. The proposed...

Neuromarketing and artificial intelligence: innovative approaches to customer experience management from a firm perspective

Abstract The integration of advanced technologies has transformed marketing practices, making the roles of artificial intelligence and neuromarketing increasingly relevant to customer experience management. The aim of this study is to systematically conceptualize the interaction...

A Novel Piezoelectric Tip for Dorsal Hump Resection: A Randomized Clinical Trial in Primary Open Septorhinoplasty

Objective: To compare the performance of a novel piezoelectric tip with that of a conventional tip for dorsal hump resection in primary open septorhinoplasty, with the hypothesis that the new design would shorten resection time without increasing postoperative edema, ecchymosis,...
