This conference paper describes a mobile-phone telemedicine system for managing chemotherapy side-effects at home using symptom diaries and automated alerts to nurses. Six patients used the system for two cycles of oral chemotherapy. The abstract reports two instances where moderate symptoms deteriorated to more…

This article addresses occupational EMF exposure during pregnancy in the context of EU Directive 2004/40/EC, emphasizing the need for workplace risk evaluation. It notes that research evidence on pregnancy risks from occupational EMF exposure is currently scarce and inconclusive. The authors also report insufficient…

This engineering study examines multi-wall carbon nanotubes suspended in water exposed to AC electric fields generated by 3D electrodes. It reports field-induced polarization leading to nanotube alignment and long-range, electrically conducting assemblies spanning the electrode gap, with assembly length controlled by…

This paper models extravascular MRI signal decay (R2/R2*) as a function of blood oxygenation, vessel geometry, and magnetic field strength up to 9.4 T using Monte Carlo diffusion simulations. It reports different vessel-size dependencies for Hahn-spin-echo versus gradient-recalled-echo relaxation across field…
