Systematic review and meta-analysis found that malnutrition was associated with poor cognitive development
2021
Aim: Malnutrition is a major public health issue that has been associated with high susceptibility for impaired brain development and mental functioning. However, to date studies on this topic have not been collated and appraised. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the association between malnutrition and cognitive development. Methods: We searched the MEDLINE, Scopus, CINAHL, Embase PsycINFO and Cochrane Library databases in English up to 8 December 2020. All studies reporting an association between nutritional status and cognitive development were included. p values of less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant and the results are reported as standardised …

Photoaging evaluation by RGB images using a smartphone for photodynamic therapy assessment
2017
In this study was evaluated the photoaging of patients' skins by the processing of RGB images acquired with an optical system based on a smartphone. Two groups were approached: a younger and an older.
Validation of Knee KL-classifying Deep Neural Network with Finnish Patient Data
2021
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of joint disease in the world. The diagnosis of OA is currently made by human experts and suffers from subjectivity, but recently new promising detection algorithms have been developed. We validated the current state-of-the-art KL-classifying neural network model for knee OA using knee X-rays taken from postmenopausal women suffering from knee pain attributable to OA. The performance of the model on the clinical data was considerably lower compared to the previous results on population-based test data. This suggests that the performance of the current grading methods is not yet adequate to be applied in clinical settings. The present results also …
Emotional intelligence modulates cortisol awakening response and self-reported health in caregivers of people with autism spectrum disorders
2014
Abstract Caring for people with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) has negative consequences for caregivers’ health. Specifically, caregivers of people with ASDs have been observed to have more somatic symptoms, poorer self-perceived general health, poorer social functioning and altered immune and endocrine systems. Various positive variables including emotional intelligence (EI) have been found to protect health in several populations, but no studies have previously analyzed the effect of EI in caregivers of people with ASDs. The present study aimed to analyze the association of the three components of EI (attention, clarity and repair) with self-reported health and cortisol awakening respon…
Modelling cardiac mechanics of left ventricular noncompaction
2020
Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) can be defined as a cardiomyopathy characterised by a pattern of prominent trabecular structure and deep intertrabecular recesses, that is thought to be caused by an arrest of normal endomyocardial morphogenesis. Using patient-specific computational modelling, we assessed the cardiac mechanics of five patients with LVNC and compared myocardial stress and pump performance to those of healthy controls. Findings shown that patients with LVNC have impaired left ventricular (LV) function, making it possible that the lack of fibre shortening of noncompacted layer can determine poor heart function. Pronounced end-systolic wall stress on left ventricular wall o…
Tree Species Identification Using 3D Spectral Data and 3D Convolutional Neural Network
2018
In this study we apply 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) for tree species identification. Study includes the three most common Finnish tree species. Study uses a relatively large high-resolution spectral data set, which contains also a digital surface model for the trees. Data has been gathered using an unmanned aerial vehicle, a framing hyperspectral imager and a regular RGB camera. Achieved classification results are promising by with overall accuracy of 96.2 % for the classification of the validation data set. nonPeerReviewed
RGB mapping of hemoglobin distribution in skin
2011
An experimental RGB imaging system based on commercial color camera was constructed, and its potential for mapping of hemoglobin distribution in skin was studied. Two types of LEDs (RGB and white “warm” LEDs) were compared as illuminators for acquiring images of vascular and pigmented skin malformations. A novel approach for studies of skin capillary refill by RGB analysis has been proposed and discussed.

The mere presence of a depiction of eyes can elicit a sense of being watched in the perceiver. To this date, the factors affecting the intensity of this sense of being watched, however, have not been investigated. In the present experiment, we tested the impact of two potentially relevant variables: arousal (manipulated using specific musical pieces) and duration of the perceptual episode (manipulated using presentation times of 200 ms and 10 s, respectively). We asked participants to report how intensely they felt being watched while we exposed them to various observation cues ranging from human eyes to surveillance cameras. We found that, on average, reported intensities were higher if pa…
