Intensity normalisation for large-scale fMRI brain decoding

2014 International Workshop on Pattern Recognition in Neuroimaging, 2014
Among the long-term goals of the fairly new area of brain decoding is the exploitation of the results for the creation of advanced brain-computer interfaces, which can potentially establish a solid communication channel with people in vegetative state. Recent attempts for large-scale brain decoding form a both powerful and promising foundation towards ...

O-49 Muscle oxygenation normalised to intensity domains during incremental stress testing

Oral Presentations, 2016
Introduction Incremental protocols for cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) are the gold standard in determining intensity domains (IntDom) for exercise prescription. In CPET, gas analysis provides proxy of muscular metabolism during exercise, but a delay between the end-expiratory gases analysed and the myocyte can be attributed to the buffering ...

A normalised intensity record from Lac du Bouchet: geomagnetic palaeointensity for the last 300 kyr?

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1998
A normalised intensity record has been obtained from 2500 sediment samples taken from three cores of length 50 m from Lac du Bouchet, a small maar crater lake in the Massif Central of France. The sediment sequence has been dated by14C in the top 40 kyr, by correlation of the pollen-derived climatic stratigraphy with the marine δ18O stratigraphy, and ...

P-92 Different oxygen consumption kinetics elicits the same oxygen deficit in normalised intensity exercise

Poster Presentations, 2016
Introduction Exercise tolerance is an important factor regarding quality of life. The maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) is a good indicator of pulmonary, cardiovascular and muscular functional integration during exercise. Oxygen uptake (VO2) kinetics is a reliable determinant of sports performance, in terms of oxygen (O2) transport adjustment, muscular

Evaluating the implementation of a ward-based training programme within a psychiatric intensive care unit using Normalisation Process Theory [PDF]

Journal of Psychiatric Intensive Care
Background: Strong staff–patient relationships are essential for the provision of high quality care within psychiatric intensive care units. These relationships can be strengthened through staff training interventions, for example, the Safe & Secure programme. However, interventions delivered in psychiatric

PA.23 Understanding practice change in neonatal intensive care using normalisation process theory – a qualitative study

Archives of Disease in Childhood - Fetal and Neonatal Edition, 2014
Background Introducing new practices in complex environments like the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is challenging, but is important in order to improve care. There is a need to better understand the process of implementation in complex environments in order to develop more effective ways of embedding new ...

Implementing evidence-based practice with normalisation process theory to improve nutritional care in the neonatal intensive care unit

The Lancet, 2014
Abstract Background Postnatal growth failure is common in preterm infants, and one reason for this growth failure is that nutritional care is often variable and suboptimal. We aimed to improve the nutritional care of extremely preterm infants by implementing evidence-based practice changes and embedding these changes into routine care.

Normalised natural remanent magnetisation intensity during the last 240 000 years in piston cores from the central North Atlantic Ocean: geomagnetic field intensity or environmental signal?

Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors, 1995
We have examined in detail the stratigraphic variations in magnetic parameters of four cores from the North Atlantic Ocean in areas where the depositional environment has varied with climatic changes. Our objective is to assess whether normalisation of the natural remanent magnetisation (NRM) intensity can cancel the effect of climatically induced ...

Features of Using the Method of Normalised Range and Fractal Analysis in Studying the Car Traffic Flow Intensity

World of Transport and Transportation
The relevance of studying the methods of studying traffic flows is due to the need to analyse their features, determine the allowable areas of their application in solving practical problems of the transport sector.The objective of the work is to identify the results of application of modern methods of time series analysis that use the values of ...

pTRACK-generated normalized average T2 signal intensity and fistula volume are accurate and sensitive measures of perianal Crohn’s disease activity

British Journal of Radiology
Abstract Objectives Fistula T2 signal intensity and volume are predictive of treatment response in IBD. We aimed to evaluate pTRACK-generated MRI metrics against MAGNIFI-CD, assessing predictive value for clinical outcomes. Methods
