A method for improving recognition of lying postures using a measured signal intensity of respiration and heartbeat

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2018
We describe a method for improving recognition of lying postures using a measured signal intensity of respiration and heartbeat. We have proposed a measurement method of lying posture, respiration, and heartbeat using a Smart Rubber sensor, a rubber ...

Bioengineering facets of the tumor microenvironment in 3D tumor models: insights into cellular, biophysical and biochemical interactions

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The tumor microenvironment is a dynamic, multifaceted complex system of interdependent cellular, biochemical, and biophysical components. Three‐dimensional in vitro models of the tumor microenvironment enable a better understanding of these interactions and their impact on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.

Pressure- vs. volume-controlled ventilation and their respective impact on dynamic parameters of fluid responsiveness: a cross-over animal study

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology, 2023
Background and goal of study Pulse pressure variation (PPV) and stroke volume variation (SVV), which are based on the forces caused by controlled mechanical ventilation, are commonly used to predict fluid responsiveness.

BCS1L‐Associated Disease: 5′‐UTR Variant Shifts the Phenotype Towards Axonal Neuropathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To investigate the consequences of a pathogenic missense variant (c.838C>T; p.L280F) and a 5′‐UTR regulatory variant (c.‐122G>T) in BCS1L on disease pathogenesis and to understand how regulatory variants influence disease severity and clinical presentation.

A Validated Model to Predict Severe Weight Loss in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Severe weight loss in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is common, multifactorial, and associated with shortened survival. Using longitudinal weight data from over 6000 patients with ALS across three cohorts, we built an accelerated failure time model to predict the risk of future severe (≥ 10%) weight loss using five single‐timepoint ...

Renal Functions During Positive Pressure Respiration

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1953
SummaryDogs under barbiturate anesthesia with one kidney acutely denervated and respiring air at greater than atmospheric pressure show two types of renal functional changes. In half the animals studied, a reduction in glomerular filtration rate, renal plasma flow, maximal tubular transport of glucose, urine volume, and sodium excretion occurred in the
