COMPARISON OF TWO METHODS FOR DEMODULATION OF PULSE SIGNALS – APPLICATION IN CASE OF CENTRAL SLEEP APNEA

In the field of 24/7 human health monitoring, pervasive computing makes possible the continuous analysis of physiological parameters from an ambulatory device with a great acceptability. This paper presents two methods for obtaining cardiac and respiratory rates from a single arterial pressure signa[r]

First, the State and the majority have applied the wrong standard. As set out in City of Cleburne, the three standards of equal protec- tion review, from highest to lowest, are strict scrutiny, heightened review, and rational rela- tionship. 473 U.S. at 440 – 441. Under Heitman[r]

Blood pressure
Arterial blood pressure is not a single pressure but a range of pressure values from systole and diastole. Mean arterial pressure best approximates the organ perfusion pressure in noncardiac tissues, as long as venous or surrounding pressures are not elevated. Arterial[r]

Polycythemia is defined as an increase in circulating red blood cells above
normal. This increase may be real or only apparent because of a decrease in plasma volume (spurious or relative polycythemia). The term erythrocytosis may
be used interchangeably w[r]

I have taught “Sleep and Dreams,” which is the largest undergraduate course at Stanford, for over 30 years. During this time, I have witnessed countless personal stories in which students have learned about sleep apnea through my course and then subsequently edu[r]

Taking this in view, the present investigation was undertaken to examine the appropriate doses of application for sulphur and boron in chickpea under central plains of Uttar Pradesh, India.

Symptoms of sleep apnea are markedly increased in children exposed to smoke from biomass fuels and are reduced by kitchen stoves that improve indoor biomass pollution. However, the impact of adherence to the use of improved stoves has not been critically examined.

Congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (CCHS) is a rare disease characterized by sleep apnea. Anoxia often occurs soon after birth, and it is important to prevent anoxia-mediated central nervous system complications; however, data on the relationship between respiratory management and the progn[r]

 The Asian Development Bank and other financial institutions financed about 63 per cent of the initial investment cost while the MWSS covered the rest of the investment cost.
 The investment was to be completed by 2004. The project is expected to operate for 30 years.

Surgical mortality from bariatric surgery is generally <1% but varies with the procedure, patient's age and comorbid conditions, and experience of the surgical team. The most common surgical complications include stomal stenosis or marginal ulcers (occurr[r]

Contrastive Analysis, the comparison of the linguistic systems of two languages, was developed and practiced in the 1950 s and 1960 s as an application of Structural Linguistics to language[r]

The aim of this study was to examine the association between body mass index (BMI) and sleep duration, insomnia and symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in adolescents.

Because statistical data have a character of mul- tivariate values, measured data were autoscaled us- ing the formula y j = ( x j –  x j )/ s j , where x j  = measured value in statistical sample;  x j   =  arithmetic mean of original statistical sample; s j   =[r]

When 0.54 ± 0.09 log 10 CFU/ml of S. Typhimurium and 0.65 ± 0.07 log 10 CFU/ml of S. Enteritidis were spiked into meats, the multiplex real-time PCR assay could detect bacteria in the spiked beef but not in the spiked pork, both from a pre- enrichment conditio[r]

The hypotheses ii and iii in the main Theorem 3.1 seem very strong but, in the
sequel, we furnish two cases in which ii and iii are satisfied.
Let us remember that the metric projection on a convex closed set P C is a firmly

Target identification is necessary for the comprehensive inference of the mechanism of action of a compound. The application of computational methods to predict the targets of bioactive compounds saves cost and time in drug research and development.
