Desferrioxamine-induced Ototoxicity (SNHL) in β-Thalassaemia
Abstract: Thalassaemia is a hereditary disorder requiring regular blood transfusion. The repeated transfusion results in an iron overload state with succeeding complications. Iron chelation therapy with desferrioxamine removes excess iron and its prolonged usage causes ototoxicity. This is a rare disease observed in the ENT (OP) Department, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) [a 750 bedded tertiary teaching hospital], Kadapa, AP, India. A 12-year-old female patient was presented with complains …

A IoT-Enabled Predictive Intelligence for Real-Time Failure and Damage Evolution Monitoring of Polymer Composites
Abstract: Damage assessment of carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer composites is still challenging since the damage occurs as a combination of matrix cracking, interfacial debonding, delamination and fibre fracture. The present work proposes a framework for predictive-intelligence based on IoT for multiaxial fatigue and compression-after-impact (CAI) CFRP experiments, employing publicly available acoustic-emission (AE) datasets. A causal CNN–GRU attention model is developed by integrating time-domain, spectral, wavelet, loading-history and trend features to estimate the damage …
