Unobtrusive Vital Sign Monitoring in Automotive Environments—A Review

open access: yesSensors, 2018
This review provides an overview of unobtrusive monitoring techniques that could be used to monitor some of the human vital signs (i.e., heart activity, breathing activity, temperature and potentially oxygen saturation) in a car seat.

Embryonic heart rate is higher in species that experience greater nest predation risk during incubation

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2024.
We investigated potential factors affecting embryonic heart rate (EHR), a proxy of development, in 14 wild songbird species in east‐central Illinois, USA. Within species we found that EHR was positively associated with embryonic age and egg temperature, while EHR among species were positively associated with nest predation risk.

A Bibliometric Analysis of Study of Associations of Certain Genotypes with the Cardiovascular Form of Diabetic Neuropathy

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
This bibliometric analysis explores the landscape of research on the associations between specific genotypes and the cardiovascular form of diabetic neuropathy. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major contributor to premature mortality, primarily due to increased susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases.

Unobtrusive Non-Contact Detection of Arrhythmias using a “Smart” Bed

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2011
We present an instrumented bed for unobtrusive, non-contact monitoring of cardiac and respiratory activity. The system presented here is based on the principle of ballistocardiography (BCG), and measures cardiopulmonary vibrations of the body by means of

Non-invasive measurement of chick embryo cardiac work

open access: yesCzech Journal of Animal Science, 2004
This study used a non-invasive method of ballistocardiography to investigate cardiac work of chick embryos. In this method, an eggshell with electric charges on it is one capacitor plate, the other being a receiving antenna of the measuring equipment ...

Surrogate modelling of heartbeat events for improved J-peak detection in BCG using deep learning

open access: yesFrontiers in Network Physiology
Sleep, or the lack thereof, has far-reaching consequences on many aspects of human physiology, cognitive performance, and emotional wellbeing. To ensure undisturbed sleep monitoring, unobtrusive measurements such as ballistocardiogram (BCG) are essential

Smartphone-Derived Seismocardiography: Robust Approach for Accurate Cardiac Energy Assessment in Patients with Various Cardiovascular Conditions

open access: yesSensors
Seismocardiography (SCG), a method for measuring heart-induced chest vibrations, is gaining attention as a non-invasive, accessible, and cost-effective approach for cardiac pathologies, diagnosis, and monitoring.

A Convolutional Neural Network Framework for Sleep Apnea Detection via Ballistocardiography Signals

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The clinical diagnosis of sleep apnea conventionally necessitates resource-intensive Polysomnography (PSG). We propose a weakly supervised framework to detect apnea using non-invasive Ballistocardiography (BCG), thereby addressing the critical scarcity ...
