Application of Fractional Derivatives in Characterization of ECG graphs of Right Ventricular Hypertrophy Patients [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
There are many functions which are continuous everywhere but non-differentiable at some or all points such functions are termed as unreachable functions. Graphs representing such unreachable functions are called unreachable graphs. For example, ECG is such an unreachable graph.

An Anticoagulant Coating Based on a Block Phosphocholine Copolymer for Potential Applications in Blood Contact Devices

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Anticoagulant properties are critical for blood‐compatible materials, and anticoagulant coatings are a common key issue for blood‐contacting medical devices. In this study, a block copolymer poly(2‐methacrylenoxyethyl phosphocholine‐b‐glycidyl) (PMPC‐b‐GMA) is synthesized, using reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer polymerization (RAFT) and

Automatic Right Ventricle Segmentation using Multi-Label Fusion in Cardiac MRI [PDF]

Workshop on RV Segmentation Challenge in Cardiac MRI in conjunction with Medical Image Computing and Computer-Assisted Intervention 2012, 2020
Accurate segmentation of the right ventricle (RV) is a crucial step in the assessment of the ventricular structure and function. Yet, due to its complex anatomy and motion segmentation of the RV has not been as largely studied as the left ventricle.

Lecithin Alleviates Memory Deficits and Muscle Attenuation in Chinese Older Adults and SAMP8 Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study opens a new avenue for safeguarding cognition and muscle health, averting disability in older age, and treating age‐related pathologies through lecithin supplementation. It serves as a promising nonpharmacological intervention for the crosstalk of muscle and cognition.

Birth defects associated with paternal firefighting in the National Birth Defects Prevention Study

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 66, Issue 1, Page 30-40, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Few studies have evaluated birth defects among children of firefighters. We investigated associations between birth defects and paternal work as a firefighter compared to work in non‐firefighting and police officer occupations. Methods We analyzed 1997–2011 data from the multi‐site case‐control National Birth Defects Prevention ...

Comparison of Evaluation Metrics for Landmark Detection in CMR Images [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) images are widely used for cardiac diagnosis and ventricular assessment. Extracting specific landmarks like the right ventricular insertion points is of importance for spatial alignment and 3D modeling. The automatic detection of such landmarks has been tackled by multiple groups using Deep Learning, but relatively ...
