Who says you are so sick? An investigation on individual susceptibility to cybersickness triggers using EEG, EGG and ECG
In this research paper, we conducted a study to investigate the connection between three objective measures: Electrocardiogram(ECG), Electrogastrogram (EGG), and Electroencephalogram (EEG), and individuals' susceptibility to cybersickness. Our primary obje ...
2024Multivariate patterns of disrupted sleep longitudinally predict affective vulnerability to psychosis in 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome
Maude Schneider, Farnaz Delavari
22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) contributes dramatically to increased genetic risk for psychopathology, and in particular schizophrenia. Sleep disorders, including obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), are also highly prevalent, making 22q11DS a unique model ...
ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD2023Robust tunable acoustic impedance control on electroacoustic resonators for aircraft noise reduction
Air traffic noise emissions are responsible for a significant part of the overall environmental noise, especially in the vicinity of airports. Exposure to environmental noise is known to negatively impact health and to be associated with cardiovascular dis ...
EPFL2023Genetic selection for low glucocorticoid responsiveness recapitulates PTSD-related phenotypes: a behavioral, neuroimaging and sleep-physiology study
Humans show inter-individual differences in vulnerability to develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following exposure to trauma. Several critical biobehavioral features have been consistently described in PTSD patients, including blunted cortisol l ...
EPFL2022Studies on Types: Dormitories
Tiago André Pratas Borges, Anja Fröhlich, Estelle Lépine, Vanessa Pointet
Concepts of type and typology are not specific to architecture. Rather they represent an interdisciplinary approach to ordering knowledge and gaining insight. In the field of architecture, the study of types and typology offers a didactic perspective that ...
EPFL Press2022Contactless Sleep Monitoring for Early Detection of Health Deteriorations in Community-Dwelling Older Adults: Exploratory Study
Daniel Gatica-Perez, Philipp Buluschek, Bruno Pais
Background: Population aging is posing multiple social and economic challenges to society. One such challenge is the social and economic burden related to increased health care expenditure caused by early institutionalizations. The use of modern pervasive ...
JMIR PUBLICATIONS, INC2021Sleep disturbance-related depressive symptom and brain volume reduction in shift-working nurses
Disturbed sleep is the most common effect of shift work. A large corpus of research indicates an association between sleep disturbance and depressive symptom in shift workers. In this study, we proposed the mediating role of grey matter (GM) structure in t ...
NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP2020Evaluation of 1-Year in-Home Monitoring Technology by Home-Dwelling Older Adults, Family Caregivers, and Nurses
Daniel Gatica-Perez, Philipp Buluschek, Bruno Pais
Introduction:Population aging is increasing the needs and costs of healthcare. Both frailty and the chronic diseases affecting older people reduce their ability to live independently. However, most older people prefer to age in their own homes. New develop ...
2020Molecular codes and in vitro generation of hypocretin and melanin concentrating hormone neurons
Sha Li, Hasan Pezeshgi Modarres, Cyril Mikhail
Hypocretin/orexin (HCRT) and melanin concentrating hormone (MCH) neuropeptides are exclusively produced by the lateral hypothalamus and play important roles in sleep, metabolism, reward, and motivation. Loss of HCRT (ligands or receptors) causes the sleep ...
PNAS2019Heart rate variability at bedtime predicts subsequent sleep features
Fiorenzo Artoni, Maria Paola Tramonti Fantozzi
Getting enough sleep during the night is important for preventing adverse short- and long-term health outcomes. The sympathetic-parasympathetic autonomic balance, characteristics of the pre-bed time resting period, correlates with sleep efficiency. We inve ...
