Spatial distribution of mammography adherence in a Swiss urban population and its association with socioeconomic status

Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous, Rebecca Himsl

Purpose: Local physical and social environment has a defining influence on individual behaviour and health-related outcomes. However, it remains undetermined if its impact is independent of individual socioeconomic status. In this study, we evaluated the s ...

Geomedicine: opportunities of using spatial information to move toward more precision in public health - spatial approaches and clusters: an introduction for clinicians

Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous

In this presentation we introduce basic knowledge about the use of located health data to detect clusters of disease prevalence. Most often, geographic maps are produced to represent health data. Medical information is transmitted through thematic chorop ...

Studying cyto and myeloarchitecture of the human cortex at ultra-high field with quantitative imaging: R1, R⁎2 and susceptibility

Rolf Gruetter, José Pedro Rebelo Ferreira Marques, Diana Khabipova

In this manuscript, the use of quantitative imaging at ultra-high field is evaluated as a mean to study cyto and myelo-architecture of the cortex. The quantitative contrasts used are the longitudinal relaxation rate (R1), apparent transverse relaxation rat ...

Simple rules for an efficient use of Geographic Information Systems in molecular ecology

Stéphane Joost, Estelle Rochat, Kevin Leempoel, Ivo Widmer

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are becoming increasingly popular in the context of molecular ecology and conservation biology thanks to their display options efficiency, flexibility and management of geodata. Indeed, spatial data for wildlife and liv ...

Imaging Photoplethysmography: What are the Best Locations on the Face to Estimate Heart Rate?

Jean-Marc Vesin, Sibylle Fallet, Fabian Braun, Virginie Moser

The potential of imaging photoplethysmography for cardiovascular monitoring applications has been demonstrated recently. Various processing schemes have been proposed to extract heart rate (HR) from a defined region of interest (ROI) on the face. However, ...

Soft tissue artifact distribution on lower limbs during treadmill gait: Influence of skin markers' location on cluster design

Kamiar Aminian, Arnaud Barré

© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. Segment poses and joint kinematics estimated from skin markers are highly affected by soft tissue artifact (STA) and its rigid motion component (STA. RM ). While four marker-clusters could decrease the STA non-rigid motion d ...

Mapping environmental partitioning properties of nonpolar complex mixtures by use of GCxGC

Jeremy Samuel Arey, Jonas Gros, Petros Dimitriou Christidis, Deedar Nabi

Comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC × GC) is effective for separating and quantifying nonpolar organic chemicals in complex mixtures. Here we present a model to estimate 11 environmental partitioning properties for nonpolar analytes based ...
