Arterial pulse waves contain clinically useful information: their intensity varies with cardiac performance, their speed (pulse wave velocity; PWV) depends on arterial stiffness and their reflection is affected by conduit artery tone. Here…
Prenatal maternal stress (PS) is a risk factor for adverse offspring neurodevelopment. Heart rate variability (HRV) complexity provides a non-invasive marker of maternal autonomic regulation and may be influenced by mind--body interventions…
As the heart beats, it creates fluctuation in blood pressure leading to a pulse wave that propagates by displacing the arterial wall. These waves travel through the arterial tree and carry information about the medium that they propagate…
Cardiovascular diseases are best diagnosed using multiple modalities that assess both the heart's electrical and mechanical functions. While effective, imaging techniques like echocardiography and nuclear imaging are costly and not widely…
Objective: This work evaluates a new approach for calculating the left-ventricular (LV) early filling propagation velocity (VP) from color M-Mode (CMM) echocardiograms using wavelet analysis. Unlike current approaches, the method requires…
Pulse feeling, representing the tactile arterial palpation of the heartbeat, has been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to diagnose various diseases. The quantitative relationship between the pulse wave and health conditions…
The measurement of the pulse wave has proven to be a vital tool in medical diagnosis. Whereby most pulse wave measurements are carried out at extremities, this work proposes a system for measuring the pulse wave and the Pulse Arrival Time…
Dense, continuous pulsar timing observations over a 24-hr period provide a method for probing intermediate gravitational wave (GW) frequencies from 10 microhertz to 20 millihertz. The European Pulsar Timing Array (EPTA), the North American…
The diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of a number of cardiovascular disorders rely on ECG interval measurements, including the PR, QRS, and QT intervals. These quantities are measured from the 12-lead ECG, either manually or using…
Auditory stimulation of EEG slow waves (SW) during non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep has shown to improve cognitive function when it is delivered at the up-phase of SW. SW enhancement is particularly desirable in subjects with…
The clinical and economic burden of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) poses a global challenge. Growing evidence suggests an early assessment of arterial stiffness can provide insights into the pathogenesis of CVDs. However, it remains…
The increasing availability of wearable electrocardiography (ECG) devices enables the continuous monitoring of individual ECG alterations. This could be beneficial for patients suffering from acute ischemia but with non-standard ECG…
Cost-effective wireless electrocardiograms (ECGs) enable long-term and scalable monitoring of cardiac patients in their home and work environments. Because they offer greater freedom of movement, they are also suitable for investigating the…
A method for recognizing the types of linear acoustic gravity waves (AGWs) in the atmosphere from satellite measurements is proposed. It is shown that the polarization relations between fluctuations of wave parameters (velocity, density,…
Wrist photoplethysmography (PPG) allows unobtrusive monitoring of the heart rate (HR). PPG is affected by the capillary blood perfusion and the pumping function of the heart, which generally deteriorate with age and due to presence of…
The speed of gravitational waves $v_g$ can be measured with the time delay between gravitational-wave detectors. Our study provides a more precise measurement of $v_g$ using gravitational-wave signals only, compared with previous studies.…
Continuous monitoring of heart rate variability (HRV) provides insights in cardiovascular health. Wearable Photoplethysmography (PPG) assures convenient measurement of HRV. PPG, however, is susceptible to motion artifacts, considerably…
The measurement of the pulse wave has proven to be a vital tool in medical diagnosis. Whereby most pulse wave measurements are carried out at extremities, this work proposes a system for measuring the pulse wave and the Pulse Arrival Time…
Prenatal psychological stress affects 15-25% of pregnancies and increases risks of preterm birth, low birth weight, and adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. Current screening relies on subjective questionnaires (PSS-10), limiting continuous…
Gait velocity has been consistently shown to be an important indicator and predictor of health status, especially in older adults. It is often assessed clinically, but the assessments occur infrequently and do not allow optimal detection of…
