Blob Detection using OpenCV
In computer vision, detecting blobs(regions) that differ from their surroundings is a common and powerful technique. A blob can be as simple as a spot of light in an image or as complex as a moving object in a video. Blob detection is crucial in various domains such as microscopy, surveillance, object tracking, astronomy, and… →

Timing of unsaturated fat intake improves insulin sensitivity via the gut microbiota-bile acid axis: a randomized controlled trial
The timing of dietary total fat intake influences glucose homeostasis, however, the impact of unsaturated fat (USFA) intake has yet to be explored. This 12-week, double-blind, randomized, controlled, 2 × 2 factorial-designed feeding trial investigated the effects of timing (lunch or dinner) and types of dietary USFA (high monounsaturated fat or polyunsaturated fat diet) intake… →

Clinical and cost-effectiveness of a personalised guided consultation versus usual physiotherapy care in people presenting with shoulder pain: a protocol for the PANDA-S cluster randomised controlled trial and process evaluation
INTRODUCTION: Musculoskeletal shoulder pain is a common reason for people to be treated in physiotherapy services, but diagnosis can be difficult and often does not guide treatment or predict outcome. People with shoulder pain cite a need for clear information, and timely, tailored consultations for their pain. This trial will evaluate the introduction of a… →

Clindamycin Phosphate 1.2%/Adapalene 0.15%/ Benzoyl Peroxide 3.1% for Acne: Results From A 6-Month Open-Label Study
BACKGROUND: Treatment of acne may require many months of treatment before maximal benefits are observed, and acne sequelae (eg, scarring, dyspigmentation) can persist long after lesion resolution. In 12-week clinical trials, triple-combination clindamycin phosphate 1.2%/adapalene 0.15%/benzoyl peroxide 3.1% gel (CAB) demonstrated efficacy and tolerability in the treatment of moderate to severe acne. This study assessed… →
