Measurement of Pulse Wave Signals and Blood Pressure by a Plastic Optical Fiber FBG Sensor

open access: yesSensors, 2019
Fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors fabricated in silica optical fiber (Silica-FBG) have been used to measure the strain of human arteries as pulse wave signals. A variety of vital signs including blood pressure can be derived from these signals.

A New Vista of Opportunity in Diabetes Management: Natural Product‐Based β‐cell Preservation

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Preserving functional β‐cells via natural products offers promising strategy for diabetes treatment. ABSTRACT A defining characteristic of diabetes is β‐cell failure, in which β‐cells cannot modulate insulin secretion to compensate for escalating insulin resistance, pushing forward disease development.

Predictive value of random blood glucose versus fasting blood glucose on in-hospital adverse events in patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background We aim to find out the relationship between random blood glucose (RBG), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and in-hospital adverse events in ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients.

Recent Perspectives on Phytochemical Profile, Pharmacological Activities, and Industrial Applications of Guava (Psidium guajava)

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Psidium guajava leaves contain potent bioactive compounds like quercetin, myricetin, and triterpenoids that show antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti‐inflammatory, and anticancer effects. They act by modulating NF‐κB, PPARγ, and α‐glucosidase and by inducing apoptosis and cell cycle arrest.

Postoperative Fasting Blood Glucose Predicts Prognosis in Stage I-III Colorectal Cancer Patients Undergoing Resection

open access: yesGastroenterology Research and Practice, 2020
Purpose. The relationship between high blood glucose and colorectal cancer (CRC) has been studied, but the role of postoperative fasting blood glucose (FBG) in patients with a prior normal FBG has never been addressed. Methods.

The use of fibre Bragg gratings for ultrasonic Lamb wave detection and source location [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
There is an increasing interest in the use of ultrasonic Lamb waves for materials characterisation and the detection of structural defects. Fibre Bragg gratings offer some significant advantages over more traditional transducers such as piezoelectrics ...

Two-axis bend measurement with Bragg gratings in multicore optical fiber [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We describe what is to our knowledge the first use of fiber Bragg gratings written into three separate cores of a multicore fiber for two-axis curvature measurement.

The mediating roles of gut microbiota in the associations of air pollution and meteorological factors with metabolic syndrome

open access: yesiMetaOmics, EarlyView.
We characterized distinct gut microbial community clusters associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and identified key genera underlying these patterns. Health‐associated clusters were dominated by beneficial genera such as Bacteroides and Prevotella with known metabolic protective functions.
