Obstructive Sleep Apnea afflicts an estimated 1 billion people worldwide. Untreated, Obstructive Sleep Apnea is linked with elevated levels of mortality, decreased quality of life and increased economic costs. However, several large population studie...

The objective of this research was to develop a coded language, similarly to Morse or Braille, via a haptic thermal interface. The method is based on the human thermal sense to receive and decode the messages, and is to be used as an alternative or c...

The interplay between nutrition, physical activity, and mental health has emerged as a frontier in bioengineering research, offering innovative pathways for enhancing cognitive function and psychological resilience. This review explores the neurobiol...

This Special Issue of Bioengineering is dedicated to the profound impact of big data and artificial intelligence (AI) in the fields of biomedical research and healthcare. In an age defined by the rapid evolution of technology, this Issue explores the...

This study proposes an innovative mathematical model for assessing microcirculation in patients with diabetic ulcers, using the ankle–brachial index (ABI). The methodology combines Bond Graph (BG) modeling and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO),...

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a cardiovascular disease (CVD) with high morbidity and mortality worldwide, which is a serious threat to human life and health. Inflammatory and immune responses are initiated immediately after MI, and unbalanced inflamm...

Background: Socially Assistive Robots (SARs) represent an innovative approach in rehabilitation technology, significantly enhancing the support and motivation for individuals across diverse rehabilitation settings. Despite their growing utilization,...

Uniform electric field distribution in electroporation is crucial for achieving the effective localized delivery of drug molecules. Currently, in vitro electroporation studies on adherent cells lack a standardized test setup for obtaining consistent...

Carrying external loads, such as vest-borne systems, is common in occupations like firefighting and military service, yet the physiological impacts of load placement, mass, and walking conditions remain not fully understood. This study examined the e...

There is a growing need to predict the severity of vitamin D deficiency (VDD) through non-invasive methods due to its significant global health concerns. For vitamin D-level assessments, the 25-hydroxy vitamin D (25-OH-D) blood test is the standard,...
