Author summary Why was this study done? Tropical cyclones (TCs), among the most destructive and costliest climate extreme events, are expected to be more intense due to climate change. Despite the widely acknowledged hazards, a consistent and quantitative assessment of the mortality risks of TC across countries is lacking. Such quantitative and comparable evidence across countries is urgently required to better understand the health effects and respond to the potentially increasing hazards. No previous studies have characterized the periods of concern (POC), exposure-response (ER) relationship, and temporal trends of the TC health risks, directly relevant to more precise and effective preparedness and mitigation strategies. What did the researchers do and find? Using mortality data from 494 TC-exposed locations in 18 countries or territories, we quantified the TC-specific mortality risks and POC of the 382 TC events that affected these locations. The ER relationships and temporal
NuraLogix this week introduced its Anura MagicMirror, a groundbreaking tabletop smart mirror. This device stands out as it uses facial blood flow patterns to assess vital health signs and disease risk, a first in the tech world. With its connection to the cloud-based DeepAffex platform, the Anura MagicMirror marks NuraLogix's first venture into manufacturing, aiming to make health data more accessible in everyday life.
Ease of Use Meets Advanced Technology
The Anura MagicMirror simplifies health monitoring. When a user sits in front of the mirror, it automatically starts a 30-second scan. This method is particularly beneficial for those with mobility challenges, including the elderly. It employs Transdermal Optical Imaging technology to analyze facial regions and extract blood flow information, then processes this data using advanced AI algorithms to compute over 100 health parameters.
