Real-Time Respiratory Rate Estimation using Imaging Photoplethysmography Inter-Beat Intervals

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

Imaging photoplethysmography (iPPG) has emerged as a contactless heart-rate monitoring technique. As the respiratory activity modulates the heart rate, we investigate the accuracy of iPPG in conveying the inter-beat variation due to the respiratory modulat ...

Extraction of QRS fiducial points from the ECG using adaptive mathematical morphology

Jean-Marc Vesin, Sasan Yazdani

QRS complex detection in the electrocardiogram (ECG) has been extensively investigated over the last two decades. Still, some issues remain pending due to the diversity of QRS complex shapes and various perturbations, notably baseline drift. This is especi ...

NAD(+) repletion improves muscle function in muscular dystrophy and counters global PARylation

Johan Auwerx, Carlos Canto Alvarez, Laurent Mouchiroud, Dongryeol Ryu, Xu Wang, Vincenzo Sorrentino, Hongbo Zhang, Keir Joe Menzies, Karim Laurent Gariani

Neuromuscular diseases are often caused by inherited mutations that lead to progressive skeletal muscle weakness and degeneration. In diverse populations of normal healthy mice, we observed correlations between the abundance of mRNA transcripts related to ...

Determination of a shear rate threshold for thrombus formation in intracranial aneurysms

Orestis Pileas Malaspinas, Ricardo Alberto Corredor Jerez, Bastien Chopard

Particular intra-aneurysmal blood flow conditions, created naturally by the growth of an aneurysm or induced artificially by implantation of a flow diverter stent (FDS), can potentiate intra-aneurysmal thrombosis. The aim of this study was to identify hemo ...

Influence of Right and Left Atrial Tissue Heterogeneity on Atrial Fibrillation Perpetuation

Jean-Marc Vesin, Adrian Luca, Vincent Jacquemet

We propose a biophysical modelling approach to separately investigate the impact of right and left atrial (RA/LA) electrical heterogeneity on atrial fibrillation (AF) perpetuation. The baseline AF substrate was based on a 4:1 anisotropy ratio and uniform m ...
