In vivo 3D hip kinematics during racket swinging after total hip arthroplasty

Aims Interest in sports participation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) has grown, and some patients return to playing racket sports after THA. However, dynamic hip kinematics and the risk of liner-to-neck contact during racket swinging remain unclear. This study aimed to evalua...

Airborne ion charge kinetics reveal circadian-range periodicity in detached plant fruits: a continuous, noncontact, and noninvasive measurement system

Abstract Background Understanding temporal regulation in plant systems requires measurement approaches that capture physiological kinetics with minimal tissue perturbation. Here, we present a magnetically levitated electrode ionization chamber (MALIC) system for monitoring airbor...

Natural Rubber-Based Encapsulation for Wireless Intraruminal Monitoring: Effects of Latex Processing Parameters on Mechanical, Chemical, and RF Transmission Performance

Encapsulation for wireless dairy-cattle implants must resist acidic, moisture-rich gastrointestinal conditions while remaining transparent to radio-frequency (RF) signals. This study evaluated vulcanized natural rubber (NR) latex as an intraruminal encapsulant, examining how tota...
