The difficult discussion on the deactivation of implantable cardioverter devices at the end of life: a systematic review

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 733-760, April 2025.
Abstract Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) reliably prevent death due to life‐threatening arrhythmias; this may become less relevant in people with more severe heart failure who are reaching the end of life (EOL). This review aimed to explore the ICD deactivation process and identify ethical issues, especially around the initiation of ...

The effect of vestibulo-ocular reflex deficits and covert saccades on dynamic vision in opioid-induced vestibular dysfunction.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Patients with bilateral vestibular dysfunction cannot fully compensate passive head rotations with eye movements, and experience disturbing oscillopsia.

Design of Stimuli‐Responsive Cobalt Tetraphenylporphyrinate‐Chitosan Microspheres for Advanced Biosensors

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
We report on new cobalt tetraphenylporphyrinate‐chitosan‐based microspheres developed for biosensing and anticancer therapy applications. We analyzed their second‐harmonic generation (SHG) behavior using a high‐resolution SHG microscope. In addition to the typical porphyrinate fluorescence, the microspheres exhibit a high‐intensity SHG response and ...

A Dynamics and Stability Framework for Avian Jumping Take-off

open access: yes, 2018
Jumping take-off in birds is an explosive behaviour with the goal of providing a rapid transition from ground to airborne locomotion. An effective jump is predicated on the need to maintain dynamic stability through the acceleration phase.

Pseudoaneurysms as a complication of stereoelectroencephalography: Case series and clinical recommendations

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) is commonly employed in the workup for epilepsy surgery in patients with focal drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE). Intracranial hemorrhage is a known complication, with reported incidence rates ranging from .9% to 19.1%. Rarely, pseudoaneurysms have been reported in literature as a potential cause. This

Data-Driven Approach to Simulating Realistic Human Joint Constraints

open access: yes, 2018
Modeling realistic human joint limits is important for applications involving physical human-robot interaction. However, setting appropriate human joint limits is challenging because it is pose-dependent: the range of joint motion varies depending on the

The multiple hit model of infantile and epileptic spasms: The 2025 update

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Infantile and epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy manifesting with epileptic spasms and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. There is an urgent need for the development of more effective and tolerated therapies.

The influence of visual landscape on the free flight behavior of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
To study the visual cues that control steering behavior in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, we reconstructed three-dimensional trajectories from images taken by stereo infrared video cameras during free flight within structured visual landscapes ...

Prevalence and incidence of infantile epileptic spasms syndrome in India: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy of infantile onset. While epidemiological data from Western countries and global estimates are available, consolidated evidence on the burden of IESS in India remains limited.

Learning a Unified Control Policy for Safe Falling

open access: yes, 2017
Being able to fall safely is a necessary motor skill for humanoids performing highly dynamic tasks, such as running and jumping. We propose a new method to learn a policy that minimizes the maximal impulse during the fall.
