Prussian‐Blue Catalysis and NFC Synergy: a Battery‐Free Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Based Platform for Urine Glucose Monitoring at Point‐of‐Care

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, Merkoçi and his research group present a polymer‐based synthesis to enhance the stability of Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles. The resulting PB‐infused catalytic hetero‐interface architecture (PB‐CHIA) achieves complete two‐dimensional (2D) and three‐dimensional (3D) substrate coverage (glassy carbon and laser‐induced graphene electrodes)

Reduced social attention in autism is magnified by perceptual load in naturalistic environments

Autism Research, Volume 15, Issue 12, Page 2310-2323, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Individuals with autism spectrum conditions (ASC) describe differences in both social cognition and sensory processing, but little is known about the causal relationship between these disparate functional domains. In the present study, we sought to understand how a core characteristic of autism—reduced social attention—is impacted by the ...

Uncovering Voice Misuse Using Symbolic Mismatch [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
Voice disorders affect an estimated 14 million working-aged Americans, and many more worldwide. We present the first large scale study of vocal misuse based on long-term ambulatory data collected by an accelerometer placed on the neck. We investigate an unsupervised data mining approach to uncovering latent information about voice misuse.

Pathological Voice Classification Using Mel-Cepstrum Vectors and Support Vector Machine [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Vocal disorders have affected several patients all over the world. Due to the inherent difficulty of diagnosing vocal disorders without sophisticated equipment and trained personnel, a number of patients remain undiagnosed. To alleviate the monetary cost of diagnosis, there has been a recent growth in the use of data analysis to accurately detect and ...

A Single‐Stage Differential Amplifier Using Organic Electrochemical Transistors

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
A three‐transistor differential amplifier using depletion‐mode organic electrochemical transistors is implemented that offers a common‐mode rejection ratio of up to ≈20 dB. Compared to a Wheatstone bridge amplifier, ECG recordings with this amplifier showed improved signal‐to‐noise ratio, gain, and power consumption.
