Dyspnea in pregnancy might be related to the incomplete physiological adaptation of the heart [PDF]
Introduction: Dyspnea is a common complaint in pregnant women with no cardiac and pulmonary diseases. We aimed to assess whether physiological dyspnea of pregnancy was correlated with subtle changes in ventricular systolic and diastolic function. Methods:

A New Automatic QT-Interval Measurement Method for Wireless ECG Monitoring System Using Smartphone [PDF]
QT-interval prolongation is an important parameter for heart arrhythmia diagnosis. It is the time interval from QRS-onset to the T-end of electrocardiogram (ECG). Manual measurement of QT-interval, especially for 12-leads ECG, is time-consuming.

Distinction of Physiologic and Epileptic Ripples: An Electrical Stimulation Study
Ripple oscillations (80–250 Hz) are a promising biomarker of epileptic activity, but are also involved in memory consolidation, which impairs their value as a diagnostic tool.

Prognostic value of pulmonary dead space in patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome. [PDF]
A study published in the previous issue of Critical Care demonstrates that measurement of the pulmonary dead-space fraction is superior to hypoxemia as an indicator of a favorable physiologic response to prone positioning in patients with severe acute ...
