Evaluating objective measures of impairment to trunk strength and control for cross-country sit skiing

Benedikt Fasel

In Paralympic cross-country sit skiing, athlete classification is performed by an expert panel, so it may be affected by subjectivity. An evidence-based classification is required, in which objective measures of impairment must be identified. The purposes ...

Test-retest variability of brain morphometry analysis: an investigation of sequence and coil effects

Tobias Kober, Bénédicte Marie Maréchal

Background: Precise and reliable brain morphometry analysis is critical for clinical and research purposes. The magnetization-prepared rapid gradient echo (MPRAGE), multi-echo MPRAGE (MEMPRAGE) and magnetization-prepared 2 rapid acquisition gradient echo ( ...

Locomotion and cadence detection using a single trunk-fixed accelerometer: validity for children with cerebral palsy in daily life-like conditions

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Lena Carcreff

BACKGROUND: Physical therapy interventions for ambulatory youth with cerebral palsy (CP) often focus on activity-based strategies to promote functional mobility and participation in physical activity. The use of activity monitors validated for this populat ...

Application of a Point Estimate Method for incorporating the epistemic uncertainty in the seismic assessment of a masonry building

Katrin Beyer, Francesco Vanin

Several sources of uncertainty affect the assessment of existing buildings, including uncertainties associated with the material properties and the displacement capacity of the elements. In engineering practice, Monte Carlo simulations of the nonlinear sei ...

In vivo evaluation of a novel, wrist-mounted arterial pressure sensing device versus the traditional hand-held tonometer

Orestis Vardoulis

Although hemodynamic parameters can be assessed non-invasively, state-of-the-art non-invasive systems generally require an expert operator and are not applicable for ambulatory measurements. These limitations have restricted our understanding of the contin ...

Fourier modeling of the BOLD response to a breath-hold task: Optimization and reproducibility

Patricia Figueiredo, João Pedro Forjaco Jorge

Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) reflects the capacity of blood vessels to adjust their caliber in order to maintain a steady supply of brain perfusion, and it may provide a sensitive disease biomarker. Measurement of the blood oxygen level dependent (BOLD ...

Reliability and validity of the inertial sensor-based Timed "Up and Go" test in individuals affected by stroke

Kamiar Aminian, Fabien Massé

The instrumented Timed "Up and Go" test (iTUG) has the potential for playing an important role in providing clinically useful information regarding an individual's balance and mobility that cannot be derived from the original single-outcome Timed "Up and G ...

Tell me about your Ponzo and I will tell you who you are

Michael Herzog, Aaron Michael Clarke, Lukasz Grzeczkowski

Unlike in cognition, audition and somatosensation, performance between various visual tasks does not correlate. Surprisingly, even tasks that appear similar, like visual acuity and line bisection task do not share much common variance. Similar results were ...

Is there a common factor for vision?

Michael Herzog, Christine Mohr, Aaron Michael Clarke

In cognition, common factors play a crucial role. For example, different types of intelligence are highly correlated, pointing to a common factor, which is often called g. One might expect that a similar common factor would also exist for vision. Surprisin ...

Inter-laboratory trial of a standardized sediment contact test with the aquatic plant Myriophyllum aquaticum (ISO 16191)

A whole-sediment toxicity test with Myriophyllum aquaticum has been developed by the German Federal Institute of Hydrology and standardized within the International Organization for Standardization (ISO; ISO 16191). An international ring-test was performed ...

Extending the sensing range of Brillouin optical time-domain analysis up to 325 km combining four optical repeaters

Luc Thévenaz, Sang Hoon Chin, Flavien Gyger

A novel scheme is proposed to extend the sensing range of Brillouin optical time-domain analyzers (BOTDA). Specially-designed erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) repeaters are located every 65km fiber along the sensing cable to achieve a total sensing leng ...

iTUG, a Sensitive and Reliable Measure of Mobility

Kamiar Aminian, Arash Salarian

Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is a widely used clinical paradigm to evaluate balance and mobility. Although TUG includes several complex subcomponents, namely: sit-to-stand, gait, 180 degrees turn, and turn-to-sit; the only outcome is the total time to perfor ...

Analyzing 180 degrees turns using an inertial system reveals early signs of progression of Parkinson's disease

Kamiar Aminian, Arash Salarian

Changes in turning are one of the early motor deficiencies in Parkinson's Disease (PD). We have proposed a system based on wearable, inertial sensors and a novel automatic analysis algorithm that can assess 180 degrees turns. Twelve patients in early stage ...
