We have recently proposed a novel CO index, namely pulse time reflection ratio (PTRR), which is extracted from photoplethysmogram and electrocardiogram and measurable from wearable devices, and proved that this index is potentially useful for dynamic CO monitoring in a preliminary study carried out on young, healthy subjects. In this study, we presented an evaluation of this technique against impedance...
Automatic tracking of movement disorders in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) is dependent on the ability of machine learning algorithms to resolve the complex and unpredictable characteristics of wearable sensor data. The challenge reflects the variety of movement disorders that fluctuate throughout the day which can be confounded by voluntary activities of daily life. Our approach is the development...

Advances in medical imaging and screening tests have made possible the detection and diagnosis of many diseases in their early stages. Those advances have enabled more effective planning, execution, and monitoring of a treatment plan. However, early detection has also resulted in an increase of the number of longitudinal radiographs requested for most patients, thus increasing the risk for potential...
In India, number of people with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM) would be 87 million by the year 2030. DM disturbs autonomic regulation of skin micro-circulation, and causes decrease in resting blood flows through the skin. The skin blood flow has a major effect on its temperature. The aim of the study was to evaluate changes of skin temperature of all parts of the body and serum asymmetric dimethylarginine,...
The Timed Up and Go is a clinical test to assess mobility in the elderly and in Parkinson's disease. Lately instrumented versions of the test are being considered, where inertial sensors assess motion. To improve the pervasiveness, ease of use, and cost, we consider a smartphone's accelerometer as the measurement system. Several parameters (usually highly correlated) can be computed from the signals...
