Transport and Retrieval on ECMO: Setup and Activities of an Immersive Transport and Retrieval on ECMO Workshop
(2020-12-03)
Extracorporeal Life Support (ECLS) and Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) are widely used for acute severe refractory cardiac and/or respiratory failure. An increasing number of patients are treated with ECMO ...
Seasonally stable temperature gradients through supraglacial debris in the Everest region of Nepal, Central Himalaya
(2020-12-03)
Rock debris covers about 30% of glacier ablation areas in the Central Himalaya and modifies the impact of atmospheric conditions on mass balance. The thermal properties of supraglacial debris are diurnally variable but ...
Is the Urine Cannabinoid Level Measured via a Commercial Point-of-Care Semiquantitative Immunoassay a Cannabis Withdrawal Syndrome Severity Predictor?
(2020-12-03)
Background: For cannabis-dependent subjects, the relationship between cannabis withdrawal syndrome (CWS) severity and the urine cannabinoid concentrations are unclear; we investigated this using a commercial point-of-care ...
Expression of Grounded Affect: How Much Emotion Can Arousal Convey?
(Springer Nature, 2020-12-03)
In this paper we consider how non-humanoid robots can communicate their affective state via bodily forms of communication (kinesics), and the extent to which this influences how humans respond to them. We propose a simple ...

Radical cystectomy, pelvic lymph node dissection and urinary diversion is the gold-standard treatment for muscle-invasive bladder cancer. The surgery is both complex and highly morbid. Robotic cystectomy is now in its 16th ...
Design of a Broadband Circularly Polarized Antenna by Using Axial Ratio Contour
(2020-12)
A novel method of using axial ratio (AR) contour to design a broadband circularly polarized (CP) antenna is presented in this letter. By resolving a radiated CP wave into two orthogonal far-field components, the resulted ...
