DOI: 10.1002/fam.3250
Abstract: Simulating fire and evacuation scenarios is crucial for engineers to assess building safety during fire incidents. Accurate simulations require data on occupants' behaviors, particularly during the pre‐evacuation phase as these decisions significantly impact evacuation duration.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00701-017-3095-2
Abstract: BackgroundChronic subdural haematoma (CSDH) is a common condition that is effectively managed by burrhole drainage but requires repeat surgery in a significant minority of patients. The Cambridge Chronic Subdural Haematoma Trial (CCSHT) was a randomised… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00701-025-06475-x
Abstract: Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is a highly prevalent condition that frequently requires surgical evacuation. This is typically achieved through burr hole evacuation, which can be performed under either local anesthesia (LA) or general anesthesia (GA).… read more here.
