Poczucie koherencji a style radzenia sobie ze stresem rodziców dzieci z chorobą nowotworową
2018
Wstęp: Sytuacja rozpoznania choroby nowotworowej u dziecka jest jedną z najtrudniejszych w życiu rodziców, nie dziwi więc fakt, że wywołuje ona stres o bardzo dużym nasileniu. O radzeniu sobie z nim można mówić w kategorii procesu, stylu i strategii. Styl radzenia sobie jest trwałą, osobowościową dyspozycją jednostki do określonego sposobu zmagania się z sytuacjami trudnymi. Jednym z najważniejszych zasobów istotnych w procesie radzenia sobie jest poczucie koherencji, czyli globalna orientacja życiowa, na którą składają się wysokie poczucie zrozumiałości, zaradności i sensowności. Cel pracy: Celem badań było określenie związku pomiędzy poczuciem koherencji a stylami radzenia sobie ze strese…
Valoración de los parámetros geométricos del menisco lagrimal mediante tomografía de coherencia óptica, y su aplicación en el diagnóstico diferencial…
2022
La unidad funcional lagrimal es un sistema integral formado por las glándulas lagrimales y de Meibomio, la superficie ocular (córnea y conjuntiva) y los párpados, así como los nervios sensoriales y motores que los conectan. El mecanismo homeostático de la unidad funcional lagrimal regula la secreción y distribución de la lágrima en respuesta a las señales de la superficie ocular, siendo uno de sus principales objetivos el mantenimiento de una adecuada película lagrimal precorneal. La película lagrimal está formada por dos capas, una capa lipídica externa y un gel muco-acuoso interno en contacto con el glicocálix del epitelio corneal. De vital importancia para su formación es el menisco lagr…
Transition-Selective Pulses in Zero-Field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.
2016
We use low-amplitude, ultralow frequency pulses to drive nuclear spin transitions in zero and ultralow magnetic fields. In analogy to high-field NMR, a range of sophisticated experiments becomes available as these allow narrow-band excitation. As a first demonstration, pulses with excitation bandwidths 0.5–5 Hz are used for population redistribution, selective excitation, and coherence filtration. These methods are helpful when interpreting zero- and ultralow-field NMR spectra that contain a large number of transitions.
Search for magnetically-induced signatures in the arrival directions of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays measured at the Pierre Auger Observatory
2020
We search for signals of magnetically-induced effects in the arrival directions of ultra-high-energy cosmic rays detected at the Pierre Auger Observatory. We apply two different methods. One is a search for sets of events that show a correlation between their arrival direction and the inverse of their energy, which would be expected if they come from the same point-like source, they have the same electric charge and their deflection is relatively small and coherent. We refer to these sets of events as "multiplets". The second method, called "thrust", is a principal axis analysis aimed to detect the elongated patterns in a region of interest. We study the sensitivity of both methods using a …

Cortical networks show characteristic recruitment patterns after somatosensory stimulation by pneumatically evoked repetitive hand movements in newbo…
2022
Abstract Controlled assessment of functional cortical networks is an unmet need in the clinical research of noncooperative subjects, such as infants. We developed an automated, pneumatic stimulation method to actuate naturalistic movements of an infant’s hand, as well as an analysis pipeline for assessing the elicited electroencephalography (EEG) responses and related cortical networks. Twenty newborn infants with perinatal asphyxia were recruited, including 7 with mild-to-moderate hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Statistically significant corticokinematic coherence (CKC) was observed between repetitive hand movements and EEG in all infants, peaking near the contralateral sensorimotor…
Some results on generalized coherence of conditional probability bounds
2003
Based on the coherence principle of de Finetti and a related notion of generalized coherence (g-coherence), we adopt a probabilistic approach to uncertainty based on conditional probability bounds. Our notion of g-coherence is equivalent to the 'avoiding uniform loss' property for lower and upper probabilities (a la Walley). Moreover, given a g-coherent imprecise assessment by our algorithms we can correct it obtaining the associated coherent assessment (in the sense of Walley and Williams). As is well known, the problems of checking g-coherence and propagating tight g-coherent intervals are NP and FP^NP complete, respectively, and thus NP-hard. Two notions which may be helpful to reduce co…
Classification of SD-OCT Volumes with LBP: Application to DME Detection
2015
International audience; This paper addresses the problem of automatic classification of Spectral Domain OCT (SD-OCT) data for automatic identification of patients with Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) versus normal subjects. Our method is based on Local Binary Patterns (LBP) features to describe the texture of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) images and we compare different LBP features extraction approaches to compute a single signature for the whole OCT volume. Experimental results with two datasets of respectively 32 and 30 OCT volumes show that regardless of using low or high level representations, features derived from LBP texture have highly discriminative power. Moreover, the experimen…
Classification of SD-OCT Volumes Using Local Binary Patterns: Experimental Validation for DME Detection
2016
International audience; This paper addresses the problem of automatic classification of Spectral Domain OCT (SD-OCT) data for automatic identification of patients with Diabetic Macular Edema (DME) versus normal subjects. Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) has been a valuable diagnostic tool for DME, which is among the most common causes of irreversible vision loss in individuals with diabetes. Here, a classification framework with five distinctive steps is proposed and we present an extensive study of each step. Our method considers combination of various pre-processings in conjunction with Local Binary Patterns (LBP) features and different mapping strategies. Using linear and non-linear cl…
En-Face differential absorption optical coherence tomography with gold nanorods as the contrast agent
2008
A new variety of nanoparticles showing unique and characteristic optical properties, appeals for its use as contrast agents in medical imaging. Gold nanospheres, nanorods and nanoshells with a silica core are new forms of promising contrast agents which can be tuned to specific absorption or scattering characteristics within the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum ranging from 650 - 1300 nm. They have the ability to be used for both image enhancement and as photosensitive markers due to their well designable scattering and absorption properties. Furthermore, their strong optical absorption permits treatment of malignant cells by photoablation processes, induced when heating them with a matched lig…
