Global longitudinal strain predicts incident atrial fibrillation and stroke occurrence after acute myocardial infarction

open access: yes, 2016
Patients with acute myocardial infarction are at increased risk of developing atrial fibrillation. We aimed to evaluate whether speckle tracking echocardiography improves risk stratification for atrial fibrillation in these patients.

Compliant Pneumatic Feet with Real‐Time Stiffness Adaptation for Humanoid Locomotion

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A compliant pneumatic foot with real‐time variable stiffness enables humanoid robots to adapt to changing terrains. Using onboard vision and pressure control, the foot modulates stiffness within each gait cycle, reducing impact forces and improving balance. The design, cast in soft silicone with embedded air chambers and Kevlar wrapping, offers durable,

Global Longitudinal Strain (GLS) in Elderly and Its Associated Factors.

open access: yesActa medica Indonesiana, 2020
cardiovascular disease is very common and can be fatal in elderly patients. It is often preceded by asymptomatic or subclinical left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD). Early detection of LVSD can reduce morbidity and mortality due to cardiovascular disease.

Bioinspired Soft‐Skeleton Robotics With Cooperative Shape Transformation and Stiffness Adaptation

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A bioinspired soft‐skeleton robot that integrates variable‐stiffness chain skeletons into a soft textile skin is developed. The chain skeletons are highly flexible initially but can stiffen upon pneumatic actuation, enabling large deformation and enhanced load‐bearing capacity.
