abstract         background and objective: the current challenge of diabetes mellitus is to prevent its complications. these complications are directly associated with hyperglycemia in diabetics. the hba1c measurement is essential for long-term glycemic control. synchronization of hba1c measurement is important in order to avoid discrepancies between results reported by laboratories. this study...

In this paper, a smart image sensor for real-time and high-resolution three-dimensional (3-D) measurement to be used for sheet light projection is presented. It realizes not only a sufficiently high frame rate for real-time 3-D measurement, but also high pixel resolution due to a small pixel circuit and high subpixel accuracy due to gravity center calculation using an intensity profile. Simulat...

Though ranking high among the relevant environmental variables (due to well-known significant interactions with everyday human life and economic activities), atmospheric precipitation is not yet measured operationally neither degree of accuracy that would meet most demanding applications nor any rigorous standardization framework [...]

Several software programs have been designed for outcome prediction of orthodontic and surgical treatments. This study aimed to review the accuracy and characteristics of cephalometric software programs for outcome prediction of orthognathic surgeries. This study reviewed studies that compared cephalometric software programs in terms of accuracy and characteristics for outcome prediction of o...
