Abstract Background The surgical strategy for thoracic esophageal cancer that invades the lungs is controversial.In particular, invasion of the pulmonary vein is often regarded unresectable.We successfully applied bilateral video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) in esophagectomy for esophageal cancer with left inferior pulmonary vein invasion follo
This paper presents an enhanced fuzzy logic control strategy considering the human-bike interaction.A new transmission mechanism and intelligent control system for an electric bicycle are designed and validated through Collections simulations and experimental setup.A load cell-based mini-sensor system is developed to measure the pedal torque.The tr
Rolling bearings are fundamental elements that play a crucial role in the functioning of rotating machines; thus, fault diagnosis Bassinet of rolling bearings is of great significance to reduce catastrophic failures and heavy economic loss.However, the vibration signals of rolling bearings are often nonlinear and nonstationary, resulting in difficu
The past few years have witnessed a growing interest in wireless and batteryless implants, due to their potential in long-term biomedical monitoring of in-body conditions, such as internal organ movements, bladder pressure, and gastrointestinal health.Early proposals for batteryless implants relied on inductive near-field coupling and ultrasound ha
