Abstract:

The presence of non-sufficient bone height and width requires an increase in the amount of bone available to insert an implant. Different materials are described in the literature, and the “custom-made bone graft approach” is a modern option which currently requires a preoperative stage of studying the bone defect and designing the implant. SmartBone® (SB®) mimics the characteristics of healthy human bone. Thanks to the strong performance, high workability, resistance and shape retention of SB®, it is possible to obtain SmartBone® on DemandTM, a bone graft uniquely shaped exactly to patient specifications, produced by following the data precisely and contoured to the bone defect site. The aim of this study was to determine the success over 7 years following a customized SmartBone® on DemandTM, a xeno-hybrid bone graft and installation of implants in a maxillary horizontal and vertical atrophy. This case study presents the diagnosis for a 60-year-old male patient requesting the rehabilitation of his edentulous maxilla with dental implants. Preoperative evaluation included the study of photographs, a radiological examination and 3D reconstruction to assess the missing bone, implant size, positioning of implants and anatomical landmarks. Rehabilitation included the insertion of a custom-made xeno-hybrid bone block into the maxilla in order to restore the anatomy prior to the implants’ placement. The newly developed bone substitute SB® is a safe and effective material, and its custom-made variant SmartBone® on DemandTM has been shown to be a valid alternative to traditional autologous bone grafting techniques in terms of accuracy, absence of infection/rejection and overall clinical outcome.

Abstract:

Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a surgical procedure for the replacement of hip joints with artificial prostheses. Several approaches are currently employed in the treatment of this kind of defect. Overall, the most common method involves using a quite invasive metallic support (a Burch–Schneider ring). Moreover, valid alternatives and less invasive techniques still need to be supported by novel material development. In this work, we evaluated the performance of SmartBone®, a xenohybrid bone graft composed of a bovine bone matrix reinforced with biodegradable polymers and collagen, as an effective support in acetabular prosthesis reconstruction. Specifically, the material’s mechanical properties were experimentally determined (E = ~1.25 GPa, Ef = ~0.34 GPa, and Et = ~0.49 GPa) and used for simulation of the hip joint system with a SmartBone® insert. Moreover, a comparison with a similar case treated with a Burch–Schneider ring was also conducted. It was found that it is possible to perform THA revision surgeries without the insertion of an invasive metal support and it can be nicely combined with SmartBone®’s osteointegration characteristics. The material can withstand the loads independently (σmax = ~12 MPa) or be supported by a thinner titanium plate in contact with the bone in the worst cases. This way, improved bone regeneration can be achieved.

Abstract:

Adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs) are a promising tool for the treatment of bone diseases or skeletal lesions, thanks to their ability to potentially repair damaged tissue. One of the major limitations of ASCs is represented by the necessity to be isolated and expanded through in vitro culture; thus, a strong interest was generated by the adipose stromal vascular fraction (SVF), the noncultured fraction of ASCs. SVF is a heterogeneous cell population, directly obtained after collagenase treatment of adipose tissue. In order to investigate and compare the bone-regenerative potential of SVF and ASCs, they were plated on SmartBone®, a xenohybrid bone scaffold, already used in clinical practice with successful results. We showed that SVF plated on SmartBone, in the presence of osteogenic factors, had better osteoinductive capabilities than ASCs, in terms of differentiation into bone cells, mineralization, and secretion of soluble factors stimulating osteoblasts. Indeed, we observed an increasing area of new tissue over time, with and without OM. These data strongly support an innovative idea for the use of adipose SVF and bone scaffolds to promote tissue regeneration and repair, also thanks to an easier cell management preparation that allows a potentially larger use in clinical applications.

Abstract:

(1) Background: Bone tissue engineering is a promising tool to develop new smart solutions for regeneration of complex bone districts, from orthopedic to oral and maxillo-facial fields. In this respect, a crucial characteristic for biomaterials is the ability to fully integrate within the patient body. In this work, we developed a novel radiological approach, in substitution to invasive histology, for evaluating the level of osteointegration and osteogenesis, in both qualitative and quantitative manners. (2) SmartBone®, a composite xeno-hybrid bone graft, was selected as the base material because of its remarkable effectiveness in clinical practice. Using pre- and post-surgery computed tomography (CT), we built 3D models that faithfully represented the patient’s anatomy, with special attention to the bone defects. (3) Results: This way, it was possible to assess whether the new bone formation respected the natural geometry of the healthy bone. In all cases of the study (four dental, one maxillo-facial, and one orthopedic) we evaluated the presence of new bone formation and volumetric increase. (4) Conclusion: The newly established radiological protocol allowed the tracking of SmartBone® effective integration and bone regeneration. Moreover, the patient’s anatomy was completely restored in the defect area and functionality completely rehabilitated without foreign body reaction or inflammation.

Abstract:

The rapid increase in population leads to a corresponding increase in waste. As an integral application of a smart city, smart waste management framework provides a viable solution of implementing smartbins to monitor the waste and collect it. However, being a battery-operated node in continuous communicating with the cloud, power efficiency and network congestion are two of the major issues faced by the smartbins. Therefore, an algorithm for power optimization and network congestion control has successfully been presented in this article. The results obtained from testing the algorithm under different filling conditions and zero packet loss provide evidence of its practicality to optimize power usage and circumvent network congestion. The proposed algorithm can easily be implemented as an integral part of a smartbin to allow the cities to support smart waste management frameworks with a minimal failure rate and minimal cost of maintenance. Researchers can integrate the algorithm into their frameworks to propose solutions to the ever-increasing problem of waste management.

Abstract:

The present publication reports the purification effort of two natural bone blocks, that is, an allogeneic bone block (maxgraft®, botiss biomaterials GmbH, Zossen, Germany) and a xenogeneic block (SMARTBONE®, IBI S.A., Mezzovico-Vira, Switzerland) in addition to previously published results based on histology. Furthermore, specialized scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and in vitro analyses (XTT, BrdU, LDH) for testing of the cytocompatibility based on ISO 10993-5/-12 have been conducted. The microscopic analyses showed that both bone blocks possess a trabecular structure with a lamellar subarrangement. In the case of the xenogeneic bone block, only minor remnants of collagenous structures were found, while in contrast high amounts of collagen were found associated with the allogeneic bone matrix. Furthermore, only island-like remnants of the polymer coating in case of the xenogeneic bone substitute seemed to be detectable. Finally, no remaining cells or cellular remnants were found in both bone blocks. The in vitro analyses showed that both bone blocks are biocompatible. Altogether, the purification level of both bone blocks seems to be favorable for bone tissue regeneration without the risk for inflammatory responses or graft rejection. Moreover, the analysis of the maxgraft® bone block showed that the underlying purification process allows for preserving not only the calcified bone matrix but also high amounts of the intertrabecular collagen matrix.

Abstract:

SmartBone® (SB) is a biohybrid bone substitute advantageously proposed as a class III medical device for bone regeneration in reconstructive surgeries (oral, maxillofacial, orthopedic, and oncology). In the present study, a new strategy to improve SB osteoinductivity was developed. SB scaffolds were loaded with lyosecretome, a freeze-dried formulation of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-secretome, containing proteins and extracellular vesicles (EVs). Lyosecretome-loaded SB scaffolds (SBlyo) were prepared using an absorption method. A burst release of proteins and EVs (38% and 50% after 30 min, respectively) was observed, and then proteins were released more slowly with respect to EVs, most likely because they more strongly adsorbed onto the SB surface. In vitro tests were conducted using adipose tissue-derived stromal vascular fraction (SVF) plated on SB or SBlyo. After 14 days, significant cell proliferation improvement was observed on SBlyo with respect to SB, where cells filled the cavities between the native trabeculae. On SB, on the other hand, the process was still present, but tissue formation was less organized at 60 days. On both scaffolds, cells differentiated into osteoblasts and were able to mineralize after 60 days. Nonetheless, SBlyo showed a higher expression of osteoblast markers and a higher quantity of newly formed trabeculae than SB alone. The quantification analysis of the newly formed mineralized tissue and the immunohistochemical studies demonstrated that SBlyo induces bone formation more effectively. This osteoinductive effect is likely due to the osteogenic factors present in the lyosecretome, such as fibronectin, alpha-2-macroglobulin, apolipoprotein A, and TGF-β.

Abstract:

The present short communication described a new procedure for the reconstruction of the horizontal severely resorbed edentulous maxilla with custom-made deproteinized bovine bone block, fabricated using three-dimensional imaging of the patient and computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology. The protocol consisted of three phases. In the diagnosis and treatment planning, cone-beam computed tomographic scans of the patient were saved in DICOM (digital imaging and communication in medicine) format, anatomic and prosthetic data were imported into a dedicated diagnostic and medical imaging software, the prosthetic-driven position of the implants, and the graft blocks perfectly adapted to the residual bone structure were virtually planned. In the manufacturing of customized graft blocks, the CAD-CAM technology and the bovine-derived xenohybrid composite bone (SmartBone® on Demand - IBI SA - Industrie Biomediche Insubri SA Switzerland) were used to fabricate the grafts in the exact shape of the 3D planning virtual model. In the surgical and prosthetic procedure, the maxillary ridge augmentation with custom-made blocks and implant-supported full-arch screw-retained rehabilitation were performed. The described protocol offered some advantages when compared to conventional augmentation techniques. The use of deproteinized bovine bone did not require additional surgery for bone harvesting, avoided the risk of donor site morbidity, and provided unlimited biomaterial availability. The customization of the graft blocks reduced the surgical invasiveness, shorting operating times because the manual shaping of the blocks and its adaptation at recipient sites are not necessary and less dependent on the clinician’s skill and experience.

Abstract:

Bone defects resulting from trauma, disease, surgery or congenital malformations are a significant health problem worldwide. Consequently, bone is the second most transplanted tissue just after blood. Although bone grafts (BGs) have been used for decades to improve bone repairs, none of the currently available BGs possesses all the desirable characteristics. One way to overcome such limitations is to introduce the feature of controlled release of active bone-promoting biomolecules: however, the administration of, e.g., recombinant Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) have been used in concentrations overshooting physiologically occurring concentrations and has thus raised concerns as documented side effects were recorded. Secondly, most such biomolecules are very sensitive to organic solvents and this hinders their use. Here, we present a novel xeno-hybrid bone graft, SmartBonePep®, with a new type of biomolecule (i.e., intrinsically disordered proteins, IDPs) that is both resistant to processing with organic solvent and both triggers bone cells proliferation and differentiation. SmartBonePep® is an advanced and improved modification of SmartBone®, which is a bone substitute produced by combining naturally-derived mineral bone structures with resorbable polymers and collagen fragments. Not only have we demonstrated that Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs) can be successfully and safely loaded onto a SmartBonePep®, withstanding the hefty manufacturing processes, but also made them bioavailable in a tuneable manner and proved that these biomolecules are a robust and resilient biomolecule family, being a better candidate with respect to other biomolecules for effectively producing the next generation bone grafts. Most other biomolecules which enhances bone formation, e.g., BMP, would not have tolerated the organic solvent used to produce SmartBonePep®.

Abstract:

This paper presents a vision for the future of the e-books which entails further development of technologies that will facilitate the creation and use of a new generation of "smart" books: e-books that are evolving, highly interactive, customisable, adaptable, intelligent, and furnished with a rich set of collaborative authoring and reading support services. The proposed set of tools will be integrated into an intelligent framework for collaborative book authoring and experiencing called SmartBook. The paper promotes the idea that the semantic technologies, intensively developed recently in connection with the Semantic Web initiative, can be incorporated in the book and become the key factor of making it "smarter".

Abstract:

This research provides a study on a smart body area network (SmartBAN) physical layer (PHY), as an of the Internet of medical things (IoMT) technology, for an advanced human monitoring system in industrial use. The SmartBAN provides a new PHY and a medium access control (MAC) layer, improving its performance and providing very low-latency emergency information transmission with low energy consumption compared with other wireless body area network (WBAN) standards. On the other hand, IoMT applications are expected to become more advanced with smarter wearable devices, such as augmented reality-based human monitoring and work support in a factory. Therefore, it is possible to develop more advanced human monitoring systems for industrial use by combining the SmartBAN with multimedia devices. However, the SmartBAN PHY is not designed to transmit multimedia information such as audio and video. To address this issue, multilevel phase shift keying (PSK) modulation is applied to the SmartBAN PHY, and the symbol rate is improved by setting the roll-off rate appropriately to realize the system. The numerical results show that a sufficient link budget, receiver sensitivity and fade margin were obtained even when those approaches were applied to the SmartBAN PHY. The results indicate that these techniques are required for high-quality audio or video transmission, as well as vital sign data transmission, in a SmartBAN.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Objective: To evaluate the effect of using sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) on the bond characteristics of orthodontic metal brackets bonded to enamel surface using three adhesive systems. Methods: One hundred twenty premolars were selected and randomly divided into two equal groups of 60 teeth/ each (Groups I and II). The teeth of Group I were left untreated while those of Group II were exposed to 5.25% NaOCl for 1 minute. The teeth in either group were randomly subdivided into three equal subgroups of 20 teeth/ each (A, B and C), according to the type of adhesive system used to bond the brackets. In Subgroup A, phosphoric acid + Transbond XT primer and adhesive were used. In subgroup B, Transbond Plus self-etching primer (SEP) + Transbond XT adhesive were utilized. In subgroup C, phosphoric acid + SmartBond LC adhesive were used. The shear bond strength (SBS) and the degree of adhesive penetration to enamel surface were assessed. Data analyses were performed using ANOVA, post-hoc (LSD), t and chi-square test. Results: Transbond XT had significantly higher SBS than SmartBond LC (p< 0.05). Phosphoric acid provided significantly higher SBS and degree of adhesive penetration than SEP (p< 0.05). NaOCl significantly increased SBS and degree of adhesive penetration in Subgroups B and C (p< 0.05). Conclusion: Adhesion quality of Transbond XT adhesive is better than SmartBond LC. Phosphoric acid is more effective than SEP. NaOCl enhances the bond characteristics.

Abstract:

<p>In recent years, the Smart City concept is emerging as a way to increase efficiency, reduce costs, and improve the overall quality of citizen life. The rise of Smart City solutions is encouraged by the increasing availability of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and crowd sensing technologies. This paper presents an IoT Crowd Sensing platform that offers a set of services to citizens by exploiting a network of bicycles as IoT probes. Based on a survey conducted to identify the most interesting bike-enabled services, the SmartBike platform provides: real time remote geo-location of users’ bikes, anti-theft service, information about traveled route, and air pollution monitoring. The proposed SmartBike platform is composed of three main components: the SmartBike mobile sensors for data collection installed on the bicycle; the end-user devices implementing the user interface for geo-location and anti-theft; and the SmartBike central servers for storing and processing detected data and providing a web interface for data visualization. The suitability of the platform was evaluated through the implementation of an initial prototype. Results demonstrate that the proposed SmartBike platform is able to provide the stated services, and, in addition, that the accuracy of the acquired air quality measurements is compatible with the one provided by the official environmental monitoring system of the city of Turin. The described platform will be adopted within a project promoted by the city of Turin, that aims at helping people making their mobility behavior more sustainable.</p>

<p class="Addresses">There are 5 highest causes of maternal mortality which include bleeding, hypertension in pregnancy, infection, prolonged labor, and abortion. One of the prevention and management efforts is to provide immediate and efficient help through hospital services (Ministry of Health, 2014). This research has aims to find the quality of nursing services on patients after cesarean surgery using the SmartBook. Methods: This is Quasi-Experiment that provides treatment with the SmartBook for 4 days in the hospital and assessed nursing services quality. Samples were taken using accidental and random sampling (20 for the intervention group and 21 for the control group). Data was collected using observation sheet and questionnaire, then analyzed with a t-test. Result: There are four variables of nursing service quality (p-value<0.05) indicating significant difference: patient safety, self-care, anxiety, and knowledge of discharge planning, while 2 others (comfort and satisfaction) are not (p-value>0.05). Application of the SmartBook for women following cesarean surgery improves nursing service quality. We suggest further research on nurse and midwife perception about the use of the SmartBook as media of care, both about its use and how far can improve job satisfaction of nurse/midwife.</p>

Abstract:

salivamoistened enamel. Design/methodology/approach: One hundred twenty stainless steel brackets were bonded to human mandibular third molars with six materials: Enlight LC® (Ormco Corp), Grengloo® (Ormco Corp), Light Bond® (Reliance Orthodontic Products), Charisma® (Heraeus Kulzer), SmartBond® (Gestenco), and Transbond XT® with MIP® primer (3M Unitek). One half of the specimens in each group (n=10) was bonded to dry enamel, while the other half to saliva-moistened enamel. Bond strength testing was performed with a wire loop loading technique after 30-min incubation in artificial saliva. Failure mode was evaluated using adhesive remaining index (ARI). Findings: No significant differences in bond strength to dry enamel were noted for all composite materials (p>0.05). SmartBond exhibited significantly greater bond strength to moistened enamel (7.10 ± 1.47 MPa) and comparable with other composite materials to dry enamel. Composite materials demonstrated significantly reduced bond strength to saliva-moistened enamel (p<0.001), except for Transbond MIP, whose bond strength was not significantly decreased by saliva contamination (p=0.089). There was not statistically significant difference between bond strength of SmartBond and Transbond to saliva contaminated enamel. A higher incidence of cohesive failures was noted for all materials. Research limitations/implications: Composite light-cured materials provide adequate bond strength to dry enamel. Cyanoacrylate adhesive provides sufficient bond strength only under moist conditions. Transbond XT+MIP has sufficient bond strength to either dry or saliva-moistened enamel. Practical implications: The study evaluated the bonding strength of orthodontic brackets, which is a critical parameter in orthodontics, especially in situations that do not allow for proper isolation from saliva, such as bonding to impacted teeth following surgical exposure. Originality/value: Bond strengths evaluated with loop loading technique in different study environments would help the orthodontist to choose the most effective adhesive for the specific clinical situation.

Abstract:

Abstract This paper discusses the concepts of performative sensibility and smartbody. The central thesis is that performative sensibility highlights the instrumental nature of sensations in which objects act on the world. We show how the prescriptions of this new sensibility associated with wearables affect the body and subjectivity that we propose to call a smartbody. There were one hundred testimonials analyzed from the oldest thread with the greatest number of comments in the Fitbit user community forum. Quantitative tools and actor-network theory were used as a guide to assemble and analyze the corpus. The preliminary findings show that Fitbit users demonstrate particular changings in body care. Extreme behaviors, physical limits defined by system goals and quantification habits without utilizing the device are some of the examples found. These findings appear to indicate that the performative sensibility of wearables mobilizes new body performatic patterns and practices oriented by data.

The test was planted as conventional-till at the Iowa State University, Johnson Research Farm (silty clay loam soil). The research site had been a late-planted corn field the previous year. A John Deere 7100, 2-row planter was set up to operate either the SmartBox or Noble insecticide delivery systems. All treatments were applied at 4 mph using the “fixed speed mode” for SmartBox applications. Planter drag chains were used for insecticide incorporation. Rows in the research area had been preflagged for treatment placements. Treatments utilizing the SmartBox system were applied first and then the planter was converted for the Noble delivery system. When planting, both rows were constantly monitored to ensure that insecticide was being correctly applied at all times. Rootworm larval feeding was evaluated in late Jul by digging 3 roots from each of the paired treatment rows and rating them on the Iowa 1-6 scale (1 = no damage or only a few minor feeding scars; 6 = 3 or more nodes of roots completely destroyed). Yields were measured by hand harvesting 0.005 acre from each treatment. To determine treatment differences, data were analyzed using ANOVA and means were sepa-rated with Ryan’s Q test (REGWQ).

Abstract:

This paper performs integrated performance evaluation, including preamble detection in the Smart Body Area Networks (SmartBAN) physical layer (PHY). The system specifications for a PHY and media access control layer (MAC) in SmartBAN, which is a standard for medical and health care advanced by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI), were issued in April 2015. In the PHY, the packet structure has a two-octet preamble, which is used, e.g., for timing synchronization. However, it is considered that the current preamble structure is not appropriate for handling medical and healthcare data that are required to have high reliability because of the too simple structure. Therefore, we propose adding a start frame delimiter (SFD) to correctly detect the header position. Computer simulations indicate that preambles with an SFD consisting of an orthogonal maximal length sequence (M-sequence) perform better than SmartBAN and similar approaches, particularly when transmitting over the IEEE model CM3. In addition, the packet error ratio (PER) and energy efficiency are evaluated in an integrated manner while taking preamble detection into consideration. The numerical results from computer simulations indicated the best performance with respect to PER was achieved using a preamble with orthogonal M-sequences of 4 octets. However, for energy efficiency, better results were obtained using a preamble with orthogonal M-sequences of 2 octets. Additionally, the theoretical analysis found the optimum length of the PHY packet to achieve the maximum energy efficiency with PER less than 10−2.

Abstract:

Abstract Cornfields located near New Holland and Garretson in central and eastern South Dakota, respectively, were chosen for this study. The experiment was conducted to evaluate insecticide efficacy using ground-driven Noble metering and electronic Smartbox metering units with band or in-furrow insecticide placement methods for control of northern and/or western com rootworm larvae. Treatment plots (15.2-m-long rows spaced 0.96 m apart) were arranged in a RCB design with four replications. Noble and Smartbox metering units were calibrated on the planter prior to insecticide applications. Banded treatments were applied in an 18-cm swath in front of the furrow-closing wheels, and incorporated by the wheels and drag chains. In-furrow applications consisted of directing granules immediately between double-disk furrow openers. Pioneer IR-3751 (100-day) com seed was planted at approximately 23,000 kernels per acre at each location. Five roots per replicate were dug, washed, examined for feeding damage, and rated using the Iowa 1 to 6 scale. Data were analyzed with the ANOVA procedure and means were compared using LSD.

A recurring narrative makes the camera, not the silent image processing algorithms (IPAs), the centre of attention. IPAs and their inevitable uncertainties are completely disregarded and “smartboxed” in favour of the special camera that appears as magic technology. As such, the ready-made smart box is not contested at all. Instead, its economic success and standing as a moral agent is emphasised.

Abstract:

In some important berry-producing countries, such as Chile, the fruit is harvested manually. The markets for these products are generally very distant, and any damage caused to the fruit during harvesting will be expressed in its shelf life. The first step to understanding the harvesting process is to identify what happens to the harvest baskets in each stage (picking, wait-full, transport-full, freezing tunnel, emptying and transport-empty), allowing variables that can affect the shelf life to be identified. This article proposes the use of Smartbins, intelligent harvest baskets with sensors to collect weight, temperature, and vibration data. Combined analysis of the variables collected, using machine learning algorithms, allows the system to estimate which stage the basket is at with an accuracy of 80%, and to assess whether the fruit has been exposed to situations that could affect its shelf life. Due to imbalance characteristics of the data collected, the best results were obtained in longer stages (picking and wait-full stages with 89% and 86% respectively).

Abstract:

Depression is a mental disorder which typically includes recurrent sadness and loss of interest in the enjoyment of the positive aspects of life, and in severe cases fatigue, causing inability to perform daily activities, leading to a progressive loss of quality of life. Monitoring depression (unipolar and bipolar patients) stats relays on traditional method reports from patients; however, bias is commonly present, given the patients’ interpretation of the experiences. Nevertheless, to overcome this problem, Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) reports have been proposed and widely used. These reports includes data of the behaviour, feelings, and other type of activities recorded almost in real time using different types of portable devices, which nowadays include smartphones and other wearables such as smartwatches. In this study is proposed a methodology to detect depressive patients with the motion data generated by patient activity, recorded with a smartband, obtained from the “Depresjon” database. Using this signal as information source, a feature extraction approach of statistical features, in time and spectral evolution of the signal, is done. Subsequently, a clever feature selection with a genetic algorithm approach is done to reduce the amount of information required to give a fast noninvasive diagnostic. Results show that the feature extraction approach can achieve a value of 0.734 of area under the curve (AUC), and after applying feature selection approach, a model comprised by two features from the motion signal can achieve a 0.647 AUC. These results allow us to conclude that using the activity signal from a smartband, it is possible to distinguish between depressive states, providing a preliminary and automated tool to specialists for the diagnosis of depression almost in real time.

Abstract:

Nowadays, individuals are getting steadily dynamic in achieving the possible ways to clean their environment. The concerned teams have initiated other developments to build tidiness. Previously, prior data on filling the trash container was required, which cautions and sends cautioning messages to the city workers for cleaning the trash receptacle on schedule and protecting the city. In this framework, numerous dustbins through urban areas from various regions are associated with utilizing IoT innovation. This program can be used conveniently to verify the status of the dust bin, the garbage in the dust containers, clean the dust bin on time, and maintain the atmosphere's safety and prevent contamination from overflows from the dust containers. So, people don't have to test everyone's work manually, so they'll get a warning if the container is full. A sensor over the garbage container would be placed to detect the full amount of waste, and when it exceeds the excessive volume, a warning will be transmitted to the company office. The proposed framework based on Arduino IDE, cloud computing concept and Load Sensor will help clean any city. Load Sensors are utilized to distinguish the dimension of trash gathered in the containers. The application also gets Latitude and Longitude estimations of the territory where the Garbage Bins are put.

Abstract:

Background Women who are pregnant and have obesity and excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) present a higher risk of maternal and perinatal complications. The use of mobile apps and a wristband during pregnancy may contribute to promoting healthy lifestyles and, thus, improving maternal and neonatal health. Objective This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a complex digital health intervention, using a smartband and app with midwife counseling, on GWG and physical activity (PA) in women who are pregnant and have obesity and analyze its impact on maternal and perinatal outcomes. In addition, we aim to study the frequency of use, usability, and satisfaction with the mobile apps used by the women in the intervention group. Methods A parallel, 2-arm, randomized controlled trial was conducted. A total of 150 women who were pregnant and had obesity were included. The intervention group received a complex combined digital intervention. The intervention was delivered with a smartband (Mi Band 2) linked to the app Mi Fit to measure PA and the Hangouts app with the midwife to provide personal health information. The control group received usual care. The validated Spanish versions of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire–Short Form and the System Usability Scale were used. Satisfaction was measured on a 1- to 5-point Likert scale. Results We analyzed 120 women, of whom 30 (25%) were withdrawn because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The median GWG in the intervention group was 7.0 (IQR 4-11) kg versus 9.3 (IQR 5.9-13.3) kg in the control group (P=.04). The adjusted mean GWG per week was 0.5 (95% CI 0.4-0.6) kg per week in the control group and 0.3 (95% CI 0.3-0.4) kg per week in the intervention group (df=0.1, 95% CI −0.2 to 0.03; P=.008). During the 35 and 37 gestational weeks, women in the intervention group had higher mean PA than women in the control group (1980 metabolic equivalents of tasks–minutes per week vs 1386 metabolic equivalents of tasks–minutes per week, respectively; P=.01). No differences were observed between the study groups in the incidence of maternal and perinatal outcomes. In the intervention group, 61% (36/59) of the women who were pregnant used the smartband daily, and 75% (44/59) evaluated the usability of the Mi Fit app as excellent. All women in the intervention group used the Hangouts app at least once a week. The mean of the satisfaction scale with the health counseling app and midwife support was 4.8/5 (SD 0.6) points. Conclusions The use of a complex mobile health intervention was associated with adequate GWG, which was lower in the intervention group than in the control group. In addition, we observed that the intervention group had increases in PA. No differences were observed in maternal perinatal complications.

Abstract:

There are vital signs in the human body that indicate important physiological values for the body. In the COVID-19 pandemic, some of the important vital signs that must be monitored are BPM (Beats Per Minute) and SpO2 (oxygen saturation) as indicators of whether a person is in good health or lacks oxygen to predict the early symptoms of COVID-19. The purpose of this study is to create a device on the patient's wrist that can monitor BPM and SpO2 in real-time, as well as provide notifications on smartphones and emails when the patient's condition is abnormal. The contribution of this study is to implement an IoT (Internet of Things) system using a Wi-Fi connection so that monitoring activities are not separated by distance and time. The MAX86141 sensor is used in the design of this tool to detect the BPM and SpO2 values, after which the data is processed and displayed on the ESP32 TTGO T-Display. Monitoring results are also sent to the Blynk, and if the patient's condition is abnormal, an email notification is sent. According to the tool testing results, BPM has the smallest error of 0.94 percent and the largest error of 6.48 percent, whereas SpO2 has the smallest error of 0.20 percent and the largest error of 3.23 percent. The findings of this study can be used to improve the ease and efficiency of body health monitoring activities. This has the potential to significantly improve public health service quality, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic

Abstract:

Nowadays, the Portuguese population is aging at a fast pace. The situation is more severe in the interior regions of the country, where the rural areas have few people and have been constantly losing population; these are mostly elderly who, in some cases, live socially isolated. They are also often deprived of some types of social, health and technological services. One of the current challenges with respect to the elderly is that of improving the quality of life for those who still have some autonomy and live in their own residences so that they may continue living autonomously, while receiving the assistance of some exterior monitoring and supporting services. The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm demonstrates great potential for creating technological solutions in this area as it aims to seamlessly integrate information technology with the daily lives of people. In this context, it is necessary to develop services that monitor the activity and health of the elderly in real time and alert caregivers or other family members in the case of an unusual event or behaviour. It is crucial that the technological system is able to collect data in a nonintrusive manner and without requiring much interaction with the elderly. Smartband devices are very good candidates for this purpose and, therefore, this work proposes assessing the level of acceptance of the usage of a smartbands by senior users in their daily activities. By using the definition of an architecture and the development of a prototype, it was possible to test the level of acceptance of smartbands by a sample of the elderly population—with surprising results from both the elderly and the caregivers—which constitutes an important contribution to the research field of Ambient Assisted Living (AAL). The evaluation showed that most users did not feel that the smartband was intrusive to their daily tasks and even considered using it in the future, while caregivers considered that the platform was very intuitive.
