Abstract:
A proof-of-principle study was conducted to assess the safety and efficacy of dental putty as an alternative sinus augmentation biomaterial. Six healthy patients requiring a total of 10 sinus augmentations received sinus augmentations. All patients volunteered and signed an informed consent based on the Helsinki declaration of 1975, as revised in 2000. The sinus augmentation was performed under local anesthesia with a mucoperiosteal flap elevated to expose the buccal wall of the maxillary sinus. The space was then filled with the dental putty in several increments, and the window was covered with an absorbable collagen membrane. Biopsies were harvested from all 10 treated sinuses using a 3-mm trephine bur at the time of implant placement at either 6 or at 9 months after sinus augmentation. All patients completed the study without complications, except for 1 patient who reported fistulas at 1 and 2 months after the surgery. Clinical reentry revealed that regenerated bone on the osteotomy site was soft and immature. The ground sections of the biopsied cores revealed minimum amounts of trabeculation surrounded by an abundant array of irregular-shaped residual alloplastic particles embedded in loose connective tissue. The present study's findings revealed inadequate bone formation, although the material appears to be bioinert as there is no elicitation of inflammatory response.

Abstract:
Wearable inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensors are powerful enablers for acquisition of motion data. Specifically, in human activity recognition (HAR), IMU sensor data collected from human motion are categorically combined to formulate datasets that can be used for learning human activities. However, successful learning of human activities from motion data involves the design and use of proper feature representations of IMU sensor data and suitable classifiers. Furthermore, the scarcity of labelled data is an impeding factor in the process of understanding the performance capabilities of data-driven learning models. To tackle these challenges, two primary contributions are in this article: first; by using raw IMU sensor data, a spectrogram-based feature extraction approach is proposed. Second, an ensemble of data augmentations in feature space is proposed to take care of the data scarcity problem. Performance tests were conducted on a deep long term short term memory (LSTM) neural network architecture to explore the influence of feature representations and the augmentations on activity recognition accuracy. The proposed feature extraction approach combined with the data augmentation ensemble produces state-of-the-art accuracy results in HAR. A performance evaluation of each augmentation approach is performed to show the influence on classification accuracy. Finally, in addition to using our own dataset, the proposed data augmentation technique is evaluated against the University of California, Irvine (UCI) public online HAR dataset and yields state-of-the-art accuracy results at various learning rates.

Abstract:
AbstractHuman augmentation is a thriving research field that aims to amplify human abilities through the development of technological improvements as an integral part of the human body. Human augmentation products may be made for anyone, ranging from healthy users wanting to enhance their human abilities to users who face temporary or permanent disabilities, physical impairments, or perilous situations that oblige them to use these products.This article attempts to introduce readers to the domain of human augmentation by providing a thorough formulation of the concept and its related terms to develop a more solid structural basis. Additionally, a categorical and dimensional classification of the field was given. Based on these findings, we then proposed a novel framework in the form of a diagrammatic presentation of both classifications, which could enable product designers to better understand and characterize the type of human augmentation product they are designing by determining its location in the diagram. Finally, the proposed framework was evaluated by introducing and classifying several significant human augmentation products most of which have proven to successfully exceed human abilities.

Abstract:
Information technologies, such as IoT, artificial intelligence (AI), and virtual reality (VR), have seen so much development that there is now a wide variety of digital equipment incorporated into the infrastructure of daily life. From the agrarian society (Society 1.0) through the information society (Society 4.0), humankind has created farmlands and cities by structuring natural environments physically and has built information environments by structuring them informationally. However, despite the rapid development of information environments, it may be fair to say that the perspectives of the human body have not changed at all since the industrial revolution. In the context of these recent technological developments, greater attention is being paid to human augmentation studies. These studies aim for a new embodiment of “human-computer integration,” one which can physically and informationally compensate or augment our innate sensory functions, motor functions, and intellectual processing functions by using digital equipment and information systems at will, as if they were our hands and feet. It has also been proposed that the technical systems that enable us to freely do what we want by utilizing human augmentations be called “JIZAI” (freedomization) as opposed to “automation.” The term “JIZAI body” used in these studies represents the new body image of humans who will utilize engineering and informatics technologies to act at will in the upcoming “super smart society” or “Society 5.0.” In these studies, human augmentation technologies are an important component of JIZAI, but JIZAI is not the same as human augmentation. JIZAI is different in scope from human augmentation, as it aims to enable humans to move freely among the five new human body images: “strengthened sense” (augmented perception), “strengthened physical body” (body augmentation), “separately-designed mind and body” (out of body transform), “shadow cloning,” and “assembling.” In the society of the future where JIZAI bodies widely prevail, we will use technologies that enable us to do what we have failed at or given up due to limitations of our physical bodies. We believe that a future society, one in which aging does not reduce our capabilities but instead increased options give us hope, can be realized. This special issue, consisting of two review papers and twelve research papers, deals with diverse and wide-ranging areas, including human augmentation, robotics, virtual reality, and others. We would like to express our sincere appreciation to all the authors and reviewers of the papers contributed to this special issue and to the editorial committee of the Journal of Robotics and Mechatronics for their gracious cooperation.

Abstract:
Triterpenoid saponins from Saponinum album (SA) significantly augment the cytotoxicity of saporin-based immunotoxins but the mechanism of augmentation is not fully understood. We investigated the effects of six small molecule pharmacological agents, which interfere with endocytic and other processes, on SA-mediated augmentation of saporin and saporin-based immunotoxins (ITs) directed against CD7, CD19, CD22 and CD38 on human lymphoma and leukaemia cell lines. Inhibition of clathrin-mediated endocytosis or endosomal acidification abolished the SA augmentation of saporin and of all four immunotoxins tested but the cytotoxicity of each IT or saporin alone was largely unaffected. The data support the hypothesis that endocytic processes are involved in the augmentative action of SA for saporin ITs targeted against a range of antigens expressed by leukaemia and lymphoma cells. In addition, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger tiron reduced the cytotoxicity of BU12-SAP and OKT10-SAP but had no effect on 4KB128-SAP or saporin cytotoxicity. Tiron also had no effect on SA-mediated augmentation of the saporin-based ITs or unconjugated saporin. These results suggest that ROS are not involved in the augmentation of saporin ITs and that ROS induction is target antigen-dependent and not directly due to the cytotoxic action of the toxin moiety.

Abstract:
Abstract The characteristics of the effector cells and monocytes, and conditions required for the monocyte-mediated augmentation of human natural killer (NK) cell activity were investigated. Enriched null cell populations were further fractionated by Percoll centrifugation and used as effector cells. The LGL-enriched fraction was less susceptible than either the unfractionated cells or the other Percoll fractions to the monocyte augmentation when mixed with monocytes in the chromium-release assay and when precultured with monocytes for 12 hr, retrieved by carbonyl iron treatment, and tested for NK activity against K562. This differential susceptibility was reflected at the single cell level. The LGL-enriched Percoll fraction did not display the increase in target-binding cells with lytic activity that was exhibited by the other effector cell preparations after culture with monocytes. No differences in Leu-7 and Leu-11 phenotypes were detected between enriched null cells that had been cultured with and without monocytes for 12 hr. At the monocyte level, it was shown that pretreatment of the monocytes with LPS did not alter their NK-augmenting activity appreciably. Glutaraldehyde-fixed monocytes were not effective, and actinomycin D-treated monocytes were less effective than untreated or irradiated monocytes when mixed with enriched null cells in the assay. Actinomycin D-treated monocytes did not augment and possibly suppressed NK activity tested after 12-hr culture, and irradiated monocytes were less effective for augmenting NK activity than untreated cells. Monocyte-mediated augmentation could be detected when the medium used for null cell-monocyte coculture was supplemented with a) different lots of fetal bovine serum, b) human AB serum, c) autologous serum, or d) no serum. Polymyxin B and indomethacin did not alter the monocyte effect. Finally, the monocyte-mediated augmentation of human NK was not MHC restricted, since allogeneic combinations were also effective. These results suggest that 1) lymphocytes other than LGL participate in the monocyte-mediated augmentation of NK activity, 2) the augmentation is probably activational rather than maturational, 3) the monocytes must be viable to be effective when mixed with null cells during the assay, 4) de novo RNA and/or protein synthesis by the monocytes is required for the monocytes to induce augmented activity in null cells after 12-hr coculture, 5) prostaglandin synthesis and endotoxin are probably not involved in the augmentation, 6) the phenomenon is not MHC restricted, and 7) monocytes may express augmentative and suppressive activities concurrently.

Abstract:
The education challenges in the information technology progress are considered. In particular, the problem of artificial intelligence is equal to humans and thus poses a challenge to the teaching system. The augmentation concept as the human and machine’s interaction that enhances the capabilities of each party is analyzed. We assessed these opportunities as the ability to create more value and get more personal benefit on the economic plane. But a worthy place for a human - to be above technology. Purpose of the study is to provide a pedagogical assessment of augmentation. The analysis of futurological research on human-machine synergy gave the opportunity to determine the social consequences and educational prospects of such development. It is questioned the prospect of singularity, the point at which artificial intelligence will match or exceed human intelligence. We will become dependent on «the society of the program», but it will not depend on us. It causes the spontaneous progress of techno-science. On the study basis (questionnaire), there were identified the predominant models of pedagogical interaction in traditional and online learning; described changes in teachers’ behavior under the influence of computer technology. We emphasized the threats of computer-mediated learning: «cool» [cold] environment according to Jean Baudrillard, «robot» as a pedagogical communication model, hyper-formalization of the educational process. But the concept of increase can be useful in the short term. The results of the study confirm the conclusions about the need to humanize education, balance technology and live communication. This is possible through the appeal to live communication as a «hot» system, inclusion of the classical literature, folklore in the digital learning tools narratives, the soft use of design thinking and principles of game design in teaching, leaving free space for human creativity, choice, decisions that contradict the logic of machines

Abstract:
Introduction and Objective: Many men often have the need to enlarge their penises for psychological gain and to satisfy or to impress their partners. Many surgical techniques have been reported. However, none is the gold standard. Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of human acellular dermal matrix allograft in augmentation phalloplasty technique. Methods: From March 2015 to September 2017, a total of 182 patients were prospectively recruited into our cohort after complete physical and psychological evaluation that deemed suitable for penile enhancement. Penis circumference was measured at the mid-length of the penis. Mean was 7.03 cm (6.93 ± 1.00 cm) and 12.1 cm (10.59 ± 1.15 cm) during flaccid and erection, respectively. All patients received human acellular dermal matrix graft under spinal or local anesthesia. The allograft was preconditioned in normal saline for 20 minutes, and mesh incisions were made to optimize blood flow. The width was equal to the circumference of both corpus cavernosa but without corpus spongiosum. The length of the graft was determined by measuring the length between the tip of the coronary sulcus and the root of penis. A complete incision below the coronary sulcus to the depth of the Buck’s fascia was made. Then separate the dartos fascia from the Buck’s fascia. The prepared graft was then placed on top of the Buck’s fascia, with the blood-remained side facing the Buck’s fascia. The graft was sutured using 4-0 absorbable polyglycolic acid suture to the Buck’s fascia. Extra caution needed to be taken when fixing ventrally to avoid injuring the urethra. Once completed, the dartos fascia was restored, the dartos fascia and subcutaneous tissue were sutured with 4-0 absorbable suture, and skin closure is achieved subsequently. Results: The post-operative course was without complications. At the follow-up after 1 year, the mean flaccid girth increased to 8.07 ± 1.06 cm ( P < .05), while the mean erect girth increased to 12.79 ± 1.23 cm ( P < .05). Sexual activity was allowed after 8 weeks of surgery. The majority reported that sexual self-esteem and functioning significantly improved. In addition, 59 patients reported alleviation of premature ejaculation. Conclusions: Compared to autologous dermis-fat graft and xenograft, augmentation phalloplasty using human acellular dermal matrix has several advantages: (1) it avoids harm harvesting site of the autograft; (2) the effects of dermis allograft can last at least 1 year; and (3) acellular dermal matrix is more likely to be accepted by people.

Abstract:
Human–robot integration, in particular human augmentation, outlines the future of robotics. Although autonomous robotic systems perform remarkably in structured environments (e.g. factories), integrated human–robotic systems are superior to any autonomous robotic systems in unstructured environments that demand significant adaptation. In our research work at Berkeley, we have separated the technology associated with human power augmentation into lower extremity exoskeletons and upper extremity exoskeletons. The reason for this was two-fold: firstly, we could envision a great many applications for either a stand-alone lower or upper extremity exoskeleton in the immediate future. Secondly, and more importantly for the division is that the exoskeletons are in their early stages, and further research still needs to be conducted to ensure that the upper extremity exoskeleton and lower extremity exoskeleton can function well independently before we can venture an attempt to integrate them. With this in mind, we proceeded with the designs of the lower and upper extremity exoskeleton separately, with little concern for the development of an integrated exoskeleton. This article first gives a description of the upper extremity exoskeleton efforts and then will proceed with the more detailed description of the lower extremity exoskeleton.

Abstract:
Data augmentation has been broadly applied in training deep-learning models to increase the diversity of data. This study ingestigates the effectiveness of different data augmentation methods for deep-learningbased human intention prediction when only limited training data is available. A human participant pitches a ball to nine potential targets in our experiment. We expect to predict which target the participant pitches the ball to. Firstly, the effectiveness of 10 data augmentation groups is evaluated on a single-participant data set using RGB images. Secondly, the best data augmentation method (i.e., random cropping) on the single-participant data set is further evaluated on a multi-participant data set to assess its generalization ability. Finally, the effectiveness of random cropping on fusion data of RGB images and optical flow is evaluated on both single- and multi-participant data sets. Experiment results show that: 1) Data augmentation methods that crop or deform images can improve the prediction performance; 2) Random cropping can be generalized to the multi-participant data set (prediction accuracy is improved from 50% to 57.4%); and 3) Random cropping with fusion data of RGB images and optical flow can further improve the prediction accuracy from 57.4% to 63.9% on the multi-participant data set.

Abstract:
This short communication article presents an experiment to test the existence of mental workload (MWL) and adaptability of a human operator (HO) in handling force augmenting devices (FADs). An experiment is conducted where the HOs of three different ages are allowed to handle a FAD with high augmentation factor. Augmentation factor gives the factor by which the HO’s force is amplified. It is observed that the HOs were unable to stabilize the FAD for the first time. With the help of these experiments, it is observed that a human adapts itself to achieve a stable HA-FAD interaction. In another perspective, it can be observed that HO undergoes MWL to handle a FAD with high augmentation factor.

Abstract:
Machine learning (ML) tools reduce the costs of performing repetitive, time-consuming tasks yet run the risk of introducing systematic unfairness into organizational processes. Automated approaches to achieving fair- ness often fail in complex situations, leading some researchers to suggest that human augmentation of ML tools is necessary. However, our current understanding of human–ML augmentation remains limited. In this paper, we argue that the Information Systems (IS) discipline needs a more sophisticated view of and research into human–ML augmentation. We introduce a typology of augmentation for fairness consisting of four quadrants: reactive oversight, proactive oversight, informed reliance, and supervised reliance. We identify significant intersections with previous IS research and distinct managerial approaches to fairness for each quadrant. Several potential research questions emerge from fundamental differences between ML tools trained on data and traditional IS built with code. IS researchers may discover that the differences of ML tools undermine some of the fundamental assumptions upon which classic IS theories and concepts rest. ML may require massive rethinking of significant portions of the corpus of IS research in light of these differences, representing an exciting frontier for research into human–ML augmentation in the years ahead that IS researchers should embrace.

Abstract:
<p>Objectives: This review aimed at investigating the impact of bioactive agents on alveolar ridge augmentation at peri-implant sites and edentulous ridges. Material and Methods: Electronic and manual literature searches were conducted for articles up to April 2021. Human randomized clinical trials, clinical trials, or retrospective studies reporting outcomes of alveolar ridge augmentation procedures with or without bioactive agents were included. Sinus lifting or extraction socket preservation articles were excluded in this study. A random-effect meta-analysis was conducted to investigate ridge dimensional changes and complication rate. Results: Overall, ten articles were included in the quantitative analysis. In bone width and height augmentation, the weighted mean difference (WMD) of the horizontal bone gain at edentulous ridges was 0.38 mm (95% CI = 0.07 to 0.69 mm, p = 0.02) when comparing sites with and without PRP/PRF. The WMD of the vertical bone gain at edentulous ridges was 0.46 mm (95% CI = 0.06 to 0.86 mm, p = 0.02) when comparing sites with and without platelet- rich plasma (PRP) or platelet-rich fibrin (PRF). When evaluating the effect of adjunctive use of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) at alveolar ridge augmentation sites compared to alveolar ridge augmentation sites without BMP application, the WMD of the horizontal bone gain at edentulous ridges was 0.90 mm (95% CI = 0.30 to 1.49 mm, p = 0.003). In addition, the odds ratio of the titanium mesh exposure was 0.13 (95% CI of 0.02 to 0.71, p = 0.02). All analyses showed favorable outcomes at the sites with bioactive agent. Conclusion: Within the limits of this review, application of bioactive agents during alveolar ridge augmentation procedures presents increased horizontal and vertical bone augmentative changes. The complication rate can also be reduced with usage of PRP/PRF in titanium mesh-guided alveolar ridge augmentation.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

Abstract:
Alveolar ridge augmentation can be completed with various types of bone augmentation materials (autogenous, allograft, xenograft, and alloplast). Currently, autogenous bone is labeled as the “gold standard” because of faster healing times and integration between native and foreign bone. No systematic review has currently determined whether there is a difference in implant success between various bone augmentation materials. The purpose of this article was to systematically review comparative human studies of vertical and horizontal alveolar ridge augmentation comparing different types of bone graft materials (autogenous, allograft, xenograft, and alloplast). A MEDLINE search was conducted under the 3 search concepts of bone augmentation, dental implants, and alveolar ridge augmentation. Studies pertaining to socket grafts or sinus lifts were excluded. Case reports, small case series, and review papers were excluded. A bias assessment tool was applied to the final articles. Overall, 219 articles resulted from the initial search, and 9 articles were included for final analysis. There were no discernible differences in implant success between bone augmentation materials. Generally, patients preferred nonautogenous bone sources as there were fewer hospital days, less pain, and better recovery time. Two articles had industrial support; however, conclusions of whether that support influenced the outcomes could not be determined. Future comparative studies should compare nonautogenous bone sources and have longer follow-up times.

Abstract:
This study aimed to investigate the histological features of deproteinized equine bone mineral (DEBM) and anorganic bovine bone (ABB) after human sinus augmentation with the lateral approach. Twenty-three sinus augmentations were performed in 16 patients (male: 10/female: 6) using DEBM or ABB in a randomized fashion. Healing took place over the next 6 months. Bone core biopsies (N = 23) were obtained for each subject prior to placing the dental implants. The biopsies were processed for both histological descriptions and histomorphometric analysis. Statistical analyses were applied as appropriate, defining statistical significance as p < 0.05. Core bone biopsies revealed no differences in terms of newly formed bone between groups, or differences in terms of tissue inflammation. Both DEBM and ABB appear to be suitable biomaterials for bone augmentation in sinus lift surgery in the short term. However, dedicated studies are required to confirm these results and their stability in the long term.

Abstract:
Optical and mechanical tools were the first major “augmentation” of human senses. The microscope approached the worlds that were too small for the optical performance of the eye. The telescope touched the too far-off space; X-rays radiated the inaccessible interior of the body. Such augmentations were not innocent, as they demanded a different interpretation of the world, which would correspond to images of infinitely small, remote or hidden. Similar augmentation is now happening with cloud computing, machine vision and artificial intelligence. With these tools, it may be possible to compile and analyze billions of digital images created daily by people and machines. But who will analyze these images and for what purpose? Will they help us to better understand society and learn from past mistakes? Or have they already been hijacked by attention-merchants and political demagogues who are effectively spreading old ideologies with new communication technologies?

Abstract:
Background We describe a retrospective study that uses the Broström-type surgical procedure with modifications that augment deficient and torn ligaments with acellular human dermal grafts. At the onset of this study, the most prevalent dermal graft available to us was GraftJacket (Wright Medical Technology, Arlington, Tennessee). Greater than 50% of the study participants were grafted with this product, but more recently other equally effective human dermal grafts have been used with no apparent difference. Methods Thirty-five lateral ankle stabilization procedures were performed in the past 6 years on 33 patients. Eight patients were considered athletes (mean age, 23 years). The balance of the study group consisted of sedentary patients (mean age, 41 years). The mean patient body mass index (calculated as the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters) was 31. Results All of the patients were satisfied with their results, with no recurrent instability. Two patients in this group went on to have contralateral ankle stabilization in a similar manner owing to their satisfaction. Complications included two soft-tissue infections. Conclusions Lateral ankle stabilization using acellular human dermal graft augmentation is a useful tool in the surgical treatment of ankle instability. This procedure offers distinct advantages over traditional methods of ankle repair and can be performed with relatively limited surgical exposure. Ease of operation, consistent results, and limited patient morbidity should allow surgeons to use this procedure independently or adjunctively to improve surgical outcomes.

Abstract:
Human work and life support are areas that provide practical applications for robotics and mechatronics technology. There is great expectation from the industry in these fields, and research and development efforts have been actively undertaken with great social impact. To support human work and life accurately, we must understand the complicated sensory, nervous, and motor control systems that enable design and development of appropriate assistive devices. Therefore, in this mini special issue, we focus on robotics and mechatronics for human sensing, modeling, and augmentation. The editor hopes that this special issue will attract researchers’ interest and contribute to further developments in this field.
