Clinical Practice Implementation To Address Ascvd Risk: A Practice Change In Primary Care, Elizabeth Wooten

Student Scholarly Projects

Practice Problem: Heart disease stands as the leading cause of mortality in the United States. While healthcare providers strive to identify and optimize prevention strategies, particularly in high-risk patient populations, notable gaps in care persist, notably in the management of modifiable risk factors such as low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL). By harnessing the power of artificial intelligence (AI) integrated software within clinical settings, we can revolutionize the landscape of this devastating chronic disease.

Results from this study revealed that there were six main motivations for backburner relationships: 1) sex or possibility of sexual intimacy; 2) previous romantic feelings with this person (e.g., first love, previous romance, ex-boyfriend/girlfriend); 3) to maintain a friendship in hopes of a potential romantic relationship; 4) …

Towards A Virtual Reality Visualization Of Hand-Object Interactions To Support Remote Physical Therapy, Trudi Di Qi, Louanne Boyd, Scott Fitzpatrick, Meghna Raswan, Franceli L. Cibrian

Engineering Faculty Articles and Research

Improving object manipulation skills through hand-object interaction exercises is crucial for rehabilitation. Despite limited healthcare resources, physical therapists propose remote exercise routines followed up by remote monitoring. However, remote motor skills assessment remains challenging due to the lack of effective motion visualizations. Therefore, exploring innovative ways of visualization is crucial, and virtual reality (VR) has shown the potential to address this limitation. However, it is unclear how VR visualization can represent understandable hand-object interactions. To address this gap, in this paper, we present VRMoVi, a VR visualization system that incorporates multiple levels of 3D visualization layers to depict movements. In …

Polydactyly is a common congenital hand deformity. The limb buds are the precursor structures of the limbs. Their formation begins in the 4th week, with the activation of mesenchymal cells in the somatic layer of lateral plate mesoderm. As mesenchyme cells enter the limb region, they secrete factors that induce the overlying ectoderm to form a structure called the apical ectodermal ridge (AER). Polydactyly is the congenital deformities which is seen in 1000 births. To observe and study the various type of polydactyly in relation to the preaxial polydactyly and postaxial polydactyly with other classification. So, thumb polydactyly is a …
