Design and validation of a wireless Body Sensor Network for integrated EEG and HD-sEMG acquisitions
2022
Sensorimotor integration is the process through which the human brain plans the motor program execution according to external sources. Within this context, corticomuscular and corticokinematic coherence analyses are common methods to investigate the mechanism underlying the central control of muscle activation. This requires the synchronous acquisition of several physiological signals, including EEG and sEMG. Nevertheless, physical constraints of the current, mostly wired, technologies limit their application in dynamic and naturalistic contexts. In fact, although many efforts were made in the development of biomedical instrumentation for EEG and High Density-surface EMG (HD-sEMG) signal ac…
Optiskās koherences tomogrāfijas loma vēlīnās vaskulārās atbildes reakcijas novērtēšanā pēc biorezorbējošā stenta implantācijas
2019
Ievads. Pēdējos gados pieaug perkutānas koronārās intervences pielietojums, jo šobrīd tā ir viena no galvenajām metodēm koronārās sirds slimības ārstēšanā. Laika gaitā perkutānā koronārā intervence (PKI) ir pieredzējusi ievērojamu ārstniecisko attīstību. Ievērojami uzlabojumi ir stentu tehnoloģijā, kā arī tehniski uzlabojumi un farmakoterapijas progress arvien vairāk uzlabo PKI rezultātus. Bioresorbējošie koronārie stenti ir ievērojama inovācija, kam ir potenciāls uzlabot ārstēšanas rezultātus pacientiem, kam veic PKI, un to mērķis ir mazināt metāla stentu trūkumus. Pētījuma mērķis: Novērtēt vaskulārās atbildes reakciju, izmantojot optiskās koherences mērījumus, pacientiem tūlīt, pēc viena …

Stress fields by the symmetric Galerkin boundary element method
2004
The paper examines the stress state of a body with the discretized boundary embedded in the infinite domain subjected to layered or double-layered actions, such as forces and displacement discontinuities on the boundary, and to internal actions, such as body forces and thermic variations, in the ambit of the symmetric Galerkin boundary element method (SGBEM). The stress distributions due to internal actions (body forces and thermic variations) were computed by transforming the volume integrals into boundary integrals. The aim of the paper is to show the tension state in Ω∞ as a response to all the actions acting in Ω when this analysis concerns the crossing of the discretized boundary, thu…
Discovering hidden brain network responses to naturalistic stimuli via tensor component analysis of multi-subject fMRI data
2021
The study of brain network interactions during naturalistic stimuli facilitates a deeper understanding of human brain function. To estimate large-scale brain networks evoked with naturalistic stimuli, a tensor component analysis (TCA) based framework was used to characterize shared spatio-temporal patterns across subjects in a purely data-driven manner. In this framework, a third-order tensor is constructed from the timeseries extracted from all brain regions from a given parcellation, for all participants, with modes of the tensor corresponding to spatial distribution, time series and participants. TCA then reveals spatially and temporally shared components, i.e., evoked networks with the …
Mobiiliopetuksen käyttömahdollisuuksia : oppilaiden omien mobiililaitteiden käyttö peruskoulun alakoulun opetuksessa
2015
Muutaman viime vuoden aikana mobiililaitteiden käyttö kouluissa on yleistynyt. Tämä on osittain aiheuttanut ristiriitaista keskustelua laitteiden käytöstä opetuksessa. Osa opettajista on ottanut mobiililaitteet opetuskäyttöön innokkaasti. Mobiiliopetuksen mahdollisuuksia ei kuitenkaan ole vielä kovin paljon tutkittu. Tällä tutkimuksella oli tarkoitus selvittää, mitä mahdollisuuksia oppilaiden omat mobiililaitteet tarjoavat opetukseen. Aineiston analyysissa pyrittiin etsimään tietoa siitä, miten ongelma-perustaisen opetuksen menetelmä ja pelillisyys vaikuttavat opetus- ja oppimisprosessissa, kun opiskelumenetelmänä käytetään mobiilioppimista ja oppilaiden omia mobiililaitteita. Tutkimus teht…
Unusual Neuroendocrine Differentiation in a Small Round Cell Angiosarcoma: A Potential Histologic Mimicker of Superficial Ewing Sarcoma.
2018
Neuroendocrine differentiation or aberrant expression of neuroendocrine markers is very uncommon in angiosarcomas (AS) and creates a challenging differential diagnosis with other superficial or soft tissue tumors. Herein, we report a new case of superficial AS presenting as a tumor lesion on the little finger of the right hand of a 52-year-old man. The tumor displayed CD56, chromogranin-A, and synaptophysin immunoreactivity. Tumor cells were positive for vascular markers (CD31, FLI1, ERG, D2-40, VE-cadherin, VEGR1,2, and 3), CD99, and EMA, but were negative for S100, CK (AE1/AE3), CK20, polyomavirus, and myogenic (desmin and myogenin) and melanocyte markers (melan-A and HMB45). Ki67 immunos…
Impact of Glutathione Peroxidase-1 Deficiency on Macrophage Foam Cell Formation and Proliferation: Implications for Atherogenesis
2013
Clinical and experimental evidence suggests a protective role for the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase-1 (GPx-1) in the atherogenic process. GPx-1 deficiency accelerates atherosclerosis and increases lesion cellularity in ApoE(-/-) mice. However, the distribution of GPx-1 within the atherosclerotic lesion as well as the mechanisms leading to increased macrophage numbers in lesions is still unknown. Accordingly, the aims of the present study were (1) to analyze which cells express GPx-1 within atherosclerotic lesions and (2) to determine whether a lack of GPx-1 affects macrophage foam cell formation and cellular proliferation. Both in situ-hybridization and immunohistochemistry of l…
Luminal Lipid Regulates CD36 Levels and Downstream Signaling to Stimulate Chylomicron Synthesis
2011
International audience; The membrane glycoprotein CD36 binds nanomolar concentrations of long chain fatty acids (LCFA) and is highly expressed on the luminal surface of enterocytes. CD36 deficiency reduces chylomicron production through unknown mechanisms. In this report, we provide novel insights into some of the underlying mechanisms. Our in vivo data demonstrate that CD36 gene deletion in mice does not affect LCFA uptake and subsequent esterification into triglycerides by the intestinal mucosa exposed to the micellar LCFA concentrations prevailing in the intestine. In rodents, the CD36 protein disappears early from the luminal side of intestinal villi during the postprandial period, but …
