We tested the usability of a tablet-computer-based application (EmoCogMeter) in investigating the effects of age on cognition. Results show an age-related cognitive decline, thereby proving the usability of our application. Findings underline the great clinical and practical potential of a tablet-based application for detection and monitoring of cognitive dysfunction.

2023
Source: Roberto Leon, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA There are two distinct stages in a construction project involving concrete. The first stage involves batching, transporting, and casting fresh concrete. At this stage, the material is viscous, and the workability and finishability are the key performance criteria. The second stage occurs when the hydration process begins shortly after the concrete is placed in the form, and the concrete will...

This article discusses the process used to formulate and prepare Taohong Siwu, a traditional Chinese medicine, as a dispersible tablet. We performed single-factor and orthogonal experiments to screen the prescription excipients, optimize the formulation process, and produce dispersible Taohong Siwu tablets.
FAQs
During compaction, particles first rearrange to occupy available space, then deform under applied force and form bonds with neighboring particles. These changes determine how well the compact resists damage after removal from the die. Controlling the compression force therefore helps produce tablets with sufficient strength and integrity for later handling and clinical pharmaceutical development.
Compression speed changes how long the powder experiences the applied force, while dwell time describes the period of effective compaction. These conditions can influence particle bonding and the resulting tablet strength. Optimizing them helps balance mechanical integrity with suitable disintegration and predictable dissolution rather than treating compression force as the only critical variable.
Tooling forms the interface through which the powder blend is compacted, so its characteristics can affect the tablet's strength and integrity. Consistent tooling conditions support reproducible compaction across production. In pharmaceutical development, evaluating tooling alongside force, speed, and dwell time helps identify a compression setup that produces reliable dosage-form quality.
Development work should evaluate compression force, speed, dwell time, and tooling together because these factors influence tablet strength and integrity. Optimization also considers whether the resulting tablets show uniform dose distribution, suitable hardness, reliable disintegration, and predictable dissolution. This coordinated approach links manufacturing settings with the quality attributes needed for consistent therapeutic performance.
Assessment should focus on dose distribution, hardness, disintegration, dissolution, and overall tablet integrity. Dose distribution indicates whether the measured formulation remains consistently represented, while the other properties describe mechanical behavior and drug-release performance. Reviewing these outcomes helps determine whether the selected compression conditions are appropriate for clinical pharmaceutical development and manufacturing quality.
It becomes especially important when development teams must connect manufacturing conditions with consistent medicine performance. Carefully controlled compression can support production efficiency while maintaining uniform dose distribution, appropriate hardness, reliable disintegration, and predictable dissolution. These outcomes matter because variation in the manufacturing process can affect both product quality and the consistency of therapeutic performance.
