Hybrid Artifact Detection System for Minute Resolution Blood Pressure Signals from ICU [PDF]
Physiological monitoring in intensive care units (ICU) generates data that can be used in clinical research. However, the recording conditions in clinical settings limit the automated extraction of relevant information from physiological signals due to noise and artifacts. Therefore, removing artifacts before clinical research is essential.

Modeling Of Blood Vessel Constriction In 2-D Case Using Molecular Dynamics Method [PDF]
Blood vessel constriction is simulated with particle-based method using a molecular dynamics authoring software known as Molecular Workbench (WM). Blood flow and vessel wall, the only components considered in constructing a blood vessel, are all represented in particle form with interaction potentials: Lennard-Jones potential, push-pull spring ...

Cardiovascular effect is independent of hemolytic toxicity of tentacle-only extract from the jellyfish Cyanea capillata. [PDF]
Our previous studies have confirmed that the crude tentacle-only extract (cTOE) from the jellyfish Cyanea capillata (Cyaneidae) exhibits hemolytic and cardiovascular toxicities simultaneously.

Application of Top-hat Transformation for Enhanced Blood Vessel Extraction [PDF]
In the medical domain, different computer-aided diagnosis systems have been proposed to extract blood vessels from retinal fundus images for the clinical treatment of vascular diseases. Accurate extraction of blood vessels from the fundus images using a computer-generated method can help the clinician to produce timely and accurate reports for the ...
