    Medical aesthetics – Current trends and a review of its applications

    No full text
    Medical aesthetics is the use of a procedure or product for a therapeutic indication which is conventionally used for aesthetics. Several medical conditions are now being treated with products, procedures or equipment that are conventionally used for aesthetic indications. This has widened the scope of treatment modalities available for dermatologists to treat various indications that fall outside the purview of aesthetic dermatology. The authors present aesthetic treatment modalities and procedures which can be used for medical aesthetics, their present-day status and usefulness in field of therapeutics with a review of published literature from “Medline” (via “PubMed”), “Cochrane,” the Virtual Health Library, and Google Scholar

    Reiter's disease in a six-year-old girl

    No full text
    Reiter′s syndrome has characteristically been described in young males and presents with a triad of urethritis, conjunctivitis and arthritis. Reiter′s syndrome has been known to affect children, although they usually do not manifest with the typical triad. Only a few such cases have been reported and these have described males predominantly. A case of a six-year-old girl who presented with watery diarrhea, redness of eyes and joint pains followed by skin involvement is reported. She was managed with topical salicylic acid and hydrocortisone, and oral aspirin and showed complete resolution of her clinical features in three weeks

    Ideas for rent: an overview of markets for technology

    No full text
    This article surveys some of the recent literature on technology markets, and summarizes its main issues and insights. We structure our analysis in three parts: the supply and demand of technology; the factors that condition the formation and growth of technology markets; industry structure and dynamic issues. In addition, we summarize some of the studies that have tried to document the size and growth of these markets. We find that the literature has focused mainly on the supply of technology, but several other aspects of these markets remain under-studied, including the demand for external technology, the role of uncertainty in technology markets, and the dynamic interaction between industry structure and the market for technology. Understanding these will illuminate whether markets for technology will continue to grow or remained confined to pockets of the economy. Copyright 2010 The Author 2010.

    Metrics for analytics and visualization of big data with applications to activity recognition

    No full text
    Activity recognition systems detect the hidden actions of an agent from sensor measurements made on the agents' actions and the environmental conditions. For such systems, metrics are important for both performance evaluation and visualization purposes. In this thesis, such metrics are developed and illustrated. For human activity recognition datasets, a reporting structure is described to visualize the metrics in a systematic manner. The other contribution of this thesis is to describe a visualization tool for estimating the orientation (attitude) of a rigid body from streaming motion sensor (accelerometer and gyroscope) data. A feedback particle filter (FPF) is implemented algorithmically to solve the estimation problem.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2018-05-01The student, Rohan Arora, accepted the attached license on 2016-04-25 at 10:47.The student, Rohan Arora, submitted this Thesis for approval on 2016-04-25 at 10:48.This Thesis was approved for publication on 2016-04-27 at 15:05.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #9459 on 2016-07-07 at 14:17:57Made available in DSpace on 2016-07-07T21:18:02Z (GMT).
