Since 2005, the call for the military to conduct ?softer? missions, such as humanitarian assistance and partner training, has increased. These ?medical stability operations? are in fact to be given comparable priority to combat operations. Military leadership understands their the value of Medical Stability Operations across the range of military operations from shaping through postdisaster or ...

The aim of the present study was to assess associations between physician diagnosed unspecified low back pain (LBP) during compulsory military service and self-reported LBP and physical fitness measured on average four years after military service. From a total of 1155 persons who had been pass medical examination for military service and who had completed physically demanding military training...

Recently speaker recognition system became high interesting by researchers for both software and hardware solutions. Different technologies have been adopted to implement speaker recognition system that has performance with optimal time response with acceptable accuracy. Research progresses are going on to provide highly durable and precise recognition system that can be embedded into critical ...

We incorporated a simulated military radio into a spoken language interface to a distributed simulation environment for military commander training. The resulting architecture bypassed the inherent problem of acoustic mismatch that arises in integrating radio output with a speech recognition front end, while at the same time preserving the realism of speech synthesis output through a military r...

ankle sprains are among the most common injuries in athletes and military recruits. high bmi, previous history of ankle sprain, poor muscle strength, proprioceptive deficits, limitation in rom and balance are important risk factors for ankle sprain. recent studies have shown that external support such as brace and tape significantly reduces the risk of primary and recurrent ankle sprains in ath...

This paper describes a new technology that blends cognitive training to anticipate the effects of stress with advanced biofeedback to mitigate stress effects and aftereffects, using a simulation-based framework. In an increasing number of military personnel, the adverse effects of service and particularly of stressful combat exposure are significant, long lasting and possibly fatal. Most stress...

PURPOSE The feasibility of a rat choledochojejunostomy (CJ) training model was investigated, as an introductory model to microsurgery for general surgeons. METHODS Roux-en-Y CJ was performed on 20 rats. Interrupted 10-0 prolene sutures were used to perform CJ. The animals were observed for 7 days and sacrificed and examined. RESULTS The rats were divided into 2 groups of 10 based on surgica...
