Detection of focal impaired awareness seizures using a biometric shirt

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective In recent years, seizure detection using wearable technology has gained significant attention in research. Most studies, however, have focused on detecting generalized or focal to bilateral tonic–clonic seizures. This study evaluates the feasibility of using a biometric shirt to detect focal impaired awareness seizures (FIAS) by ...

Long‐term association of physical activity with survival by primary cancer treatment in endometrial cancer: The Alberta Endometrial Cancer Cohort Study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Accumulating evidence suggests a beneficial role of physical activity in cancer. However, it is unclear whether associations between physical activity and cancer outcomes vary by cancer treatment. Based on more than 16 years of follow‐up data from a cohort of endometrial cancer survivors, this study reveals that associations between ...

Validating device-based physical activity indicators with observation physical activity indicators in Swiss pre-school children

Current Issues in Sport Science, 2023
Purpose Accelometry is a very important tool to measure physical activity (PA) in preschoolers, as it can measure 24-hour PA and detect activity which cannot be captured by other methods. However, accelerometer validation for preschoolers is lacking (
