Human Engineered Heart Tissues Reproduce Trigger‐ and Substrate‐Driven Mechanisms of Ventricular Tachycardia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Engineered heart tissues (EHTs) derived from human iPSCs replicate mechanisms of ventricular tachycardia at the tissue level. Acquired Long‐QT conditions cause early afterdepolarizations, wavebreak, and transient rotors; in contrast, focal cryoinjury forms a stable substrate that supports ongoing reentry.

Identifying gait quality metrics sensitive to changes in lower limb constraint

Cogent Engineering
Gait quality is of significant interest in studies investigating interventions for individuals with gait pathology. A primary challenge in gait analysis is selecting an appropriate metric which adequately reflects aberrant deviations and provides an ...

Usability of Haptic Volumetric Assistance for Surgical Navigation Tasks

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2021
Manual control of surgical instruments represents a sensorimotor control task with at least 3-6 degrees of freedom (DoF). The impact of haptic guidance on volumetric navigation tasks, such as milling of planned volumes for prosthesis fits or preserving ...

LepR‐Lineage Cells Represent the Main Target of the Nociceptive CGRP Pathway in White Adipose Tissue Browning

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Regulation of WAT Browning and UCP1 Expression in LepR‐MSCs of Inguinal WAT by Nociceptive CGRP and Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS) Noradrenaline (NE). ABSTRACT Sympathetic innervation regulates white adipose tissue (WAT) browning; however, the roles of nociceptive neurons and their associated target cells remain unknown.

Three-Field Modelling of Nonlinear Nonsmooth Boundary Value Problems and Stability of Differential Mixed Variational Inequalities

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
The purpose of this paper is twofold. Firstly we consider nonlinear nonsmooth elliptic boundary value problems, and also related parabolic initial boundary value problems that model in a simplified way steady-state unilateral contact with Tresca friction

Effects of combining constraint-induced movement therapy and action-observation training on upper limb kinematics in children with unilateral cerebral palsy: a randomized controlled trial

Scientific Reports, 2019
Modified constraint-induced movement therapy (mCIMT) improves upper limb (UL) motor execution in unilateral cerebral palsy (uCP). As these children also show motor planning deficits, action-observation training (AOT) might be of additional value.

Unilateral measures and global emissions mitigation [PDF]

, 2009
In this paper we discuss global climate change mitigation that builds on existing unilateral actions to deliver ever deepening emission cuts over time. A wide array of unilateral environmental measures have been documented.

Updatable Closed‐Form Evaluation of Arbitrarily Complex Multiport Network Connections

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
The inverse design of electrically large wave devices often uses reduced‐order multiport models with discrete optimization, requiring many evaluations of complex interconnections between subsystems that differ only in a few blocks. This paper introduces a closed‐form framework enabling efficient Woodbury low‐rank updates of related, previous ...

Feasibility of image-guided radiotherapy based on helical tomotherapy to reduce contralateral parotid dose in head and neck cancer

BMC Cancer, 2012
Background To evaluate the feasibility of image-guided radiotherapy based on helical Tomotherapy to spare the contralateral parotid gland in head and neck cancer patients with unilateral or no neck node metastases.
