We present a new side-channel attack against VEST, a set of four stream ciphers which reached the second phase of the eSTREAM project (the European stream cipher project). The proposed attacks target the counter part of the ciphers, composed of 16 short-length nonlinear feedback shift registers (NLFSR) independently updated. Our aim is to retrieve the whole initial state of the counter (163 to ...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a cooling vest on core body temperature following active dehydration and hyperthermia induced by exercising in a hot, humid environment. Based on our study, we recommend the ClimaTech HeatShield only when athletes present with mild symptoms of heat exhaustion. Fluid replacement and the prevention of heat illness have been prevalent topics ...

Aim: A Prospective Randomized Multicenter Trial is ongoing to evaluate Posthorax and prevention of sternal dehiscence/instability: clinical percept is optimistic for Posthorax use. The aim of this mono-center analysis is to give a preliminary result of Posthorax support vest after sternotomy. Methods: One hundred and eighty three cases elective patients were consecutive operated and included in...

BACKGROUND Though rehabilitation attempts to correct "stiff knee gait" and control for dynamic limb valgus after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), impaired biomechanics often persist when an individual is cleared to return to sport (RTS). Reduced knee extension moments (KEMs) and knee flexion angles (KFAs) often continue. While at the hip, increased hip adduction angles (HADDAs)...

Lung function measurement is difficult in unsedated infants; tidal breathing parameters are a useful non-invasive surrogate, but even these measurements cause disturbance from applying a facemask. We investigated a novel volumetric vest system (FloRight), which measures volume changes of the respiratory system from changes in the magnetic fields induced by current-carrying coils around the enti...
