COVID-19 “A Novel Great Imitator” and Its Cause-Effect Relationship on the Skin- Crimson Publishers

COVID-19 “A Novel Great Imitator” and Its Cause-Effect Relationship on the Skin- CrimsonPublishers



 The emergence of the new coronavirus in December 2019, the main actor in the current COVID-19 pandemic and type 2 acute respiratory distress syndrome (SARS-CoV-2), initially allowed elucidating the particular respiratory symptoms of the disease that regularly it culminated in severe respiratory distress requiring mechanical ventilation and caused death in a considerable percentage of those infected. Over time, other symptoms were recognized, including the appearance of skin lesions. Initial reports of skin manifestations were documented by Italian dermatologists, probably because Italy was the first European country to be severely affected by the pandemic. The general clinical presentation, course, and outcome of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children differ from that in adults. In studies carried out during the first wave of the pandemic, it was observed that from 20.4% to 45% of patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection had presented skin manifestations, the maculopapular rash being the most frequently described. Subsequently, other studies classified the types of eruption attributable to the disease and related them to the stages and severity of the infection [1-2].

Ultra-Fast Detection of Loosened Bolts Based on Binary Image Processing- Crimson Publishers

Ultra-Fast Detection of Loosened Bolts Based on Binary Image Processing- CrimsonPublishers   In this paper, we offer a new method for detecting tight or loosened bolts based on image processing. The proposed method is independent of bolt appearances, and no height detector is needed. Firstly, several pictures are taken from the bolts in tight and different loosened states for training the system. After the training step, the status of the study bolts is processed by MATLAB software. By using image processing techniques including noise removal, Circular Hough Transform (CHT), transformation of colored images to grayscale, Otsu thresholding, binary complement of Otsu thresholding, enhancement of images with dilation structure element, and after calculating the area of the bolts, the decision about the states of the bolts can be accurately determined based on the number of zero pixels. The proposed method has the advantages of the low calculation process, very fast, and high preci...

Stimulus Activated Shape Switching in Shape Memory Materials with Tailor Able Start/Finish Temperature/ Time - Crimson Publishers

Stimulus Activated ShapeSwitching in Shape Memory Materials with Tailor Able Start/Finish Temperature/Time by Wei Min Huang* in Research in Medical & Engineering Sciences The shape memory effect (SME) refers to the phenomenon of shape recovery in a severely pre-deformed material , but only when a right stimulus is applied. The materials with the SME are called shape memory material (SMM), and typical stimuli include heat, chemical (including water/moisture), light, etc. Right now, the family of SMM has expended significantly, and covers a range of different types of materials, including alloy, polymer and ceramic etc. In general, the SME process includes two steps. The first step is to program the piece of SMM into a temporary shape (known as the programming process); and the second step is to apply the right stimulus for recovery (called the recovery process) with or without constraint applied. https://crimsonpublishers.com/rmes/fulltext/RMES.000515.php For mo...

Review of Long Term Turbidity Trends with Possible Reasons around the World | Crimson Publishers

Review of Long Term Turbidity Trends with Possible Reasons around the World by Ilknur Tuncer in Research in Medical & Engineering Sciences In this review, it was tried to summarize the long term turbidity trends in various environments around the world. It was found that there was a decreasing trend in water clarity for Baltic Sea, Dutch Wadden Sea, Black Sea, Adriatic Sea, Japanese coasts due to eutrophication, rapid industrialization, anthropogenic input, etc. throughout 1900s and when those effects were diminished as maintained in Norwegian and North Atlantic coasts by the introduction of waste treatment plants and the improvement of sewage systems, an increasing trend was obtained. Moreover, clear oceanic water intrusion into near shore regions also resulted in an increase in water clarity as seen in the coasts of Southern California. On the other hand, since coasts of Wales, UK consisted of inorganic sediments, rather than anthropogenic effects, wind was tested as...
