Application of Supervised Machine Learning for Behavioral Biomarkers of Autism Spectrum Disorder Based on Electrodermal Activity and Virtual Reality

2020

[EN] Objective: Sensory processing is the ability to capture, elaborate, and integrate information through the five senses and is impaired in over 90% of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The ASD population shows hyper¿hypo sensitiveness to sensory stimuli that can generate alteration in information processing, affecting cognitive and social responses to daily life situations. Structured and semi-structured interviews are generally used for ASD assessment, and the evaluation relies on the examiner¿s subjectivity and expertise, which can lead to misleading outcomes. Recently, there has been a growing need for more objective, reliable, and valid diagnostic measures, such as biomar…

Visual and postural eye-height information is flexibly coupled in the perception of virtual environments.

2021

We conducted two experiments to investigate how observers integrate postural and visual eye-height information when estimating the layout of interior space. In Experiment 1, we varied postural and visual eye-height information independently of each other in a virtual-reality setup. Observers estimated the width, depth, and height of simulated rooms. All dimensions were perceived as larger when the virtual visual eye-height corresponded to sitting on the floor as compared with standing upright. In contrast, the estimates remained widely unaffected by the observer's physical posture (likewise sitting vs. standing). In Experiment 2, we studied effects of the viewing condition (real vs. virtual…

302 Hearing Abnormalities in Children with Fabry Disease: Data from FOS - the Fabry Outcome Survey

2005

Background: Fabry disease is an X-linked glycosphingolipid storage disorder due to a deficiency of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A. Accumulation of substrate results in a progressive and life-threatening multisystemic disease. Early clinical manifestations include pain and gastrointestinal symptoms. Sensorineural hearing loss and vertigo are well-recognized features of the disorder, occurring in approximately 50% of adults with Fabry disease. We have investigated the audiological symptoms of Fabry disease in children using pure-tone and impedance audiometry. Methods: Symptom history was obtained using a standardized questionnaire from FOS − the Fabry Outcome Survey. Hearing was measured us…

“Small Volume Resuscitation” as Treatment of Cerebral Blood Flow Disturbances and Increased ICP in Trauma and Ischemia

1996

“Small volume resuscitation” (SVR) is a promising concept for the treatment of shock and trauma patients. SVR utilizes the fast infusion of a small volume of hypertonic saline to mobilize intraendothelial and parenchymal water to expand and restitute intravascular volume. Therefore it seems warranted to also consider SVR for the treatment of disturbances of the cerebral circulation and of increased intracranial pressure (ICP). The current study uses a rabbit model of global cerebral ischemia combined with mild hemorrhage to test SVR. Somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) serve as a short-term outcome parameter. The data demonstrate a beneficial effect on ICP, a better reperfusion, and an i…

Reply: Sensory profile in primary restless legs syndrome and restless legs syndrome associated with small fibre neuropathy

2010

Sir, We wish to thank the editor for giving us the opportunity to respond to this letter. We appreciated reading that Drs Gemignani and Vitetta think our study (Bachmann et al. , 2010) provides support for the differential diagnosis of primary and secondary restless legs syndrome (RLS) associated with small fibre neuropathy, when comparing the sensory profiles of these groups of patients for the first time. Dr Gemignani recently wrote ‘A general consensus on the proposed criteria for the diagnosis of small fibre neuropathy has not been established’ (Gemignani, 2010 b ). This already applies for small fibre neuropathy without complicating RLS; however, for the constellation of RLS with small…
