Synthesis of the 12-lead ECG has been investigated in the past decade as a method to improve patient monitoring in situations where the acquisition of the 12-lead ECG is cumbersome and time consuming. This paper presents and assesses a novel approach for deriving 12-lead ECGs from a pseudoorthogonal three-lead subset via generic and patient-specific nonlinear reconstruction methods based on the use...
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a prototypical autoimmune disease that is atherogenic. Decreased arterial distensibility (AD) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and this precursor may be associated with SLE. Accordingly, we tested the hypothesis that patients with SLE will have significantly (p < 0.05) decreased AD when compared to normal, healthy age, and gender matched controls...
Recently, telecare solutions have been demonstrated as an effective means of monitoring chronic disease at a distance. A clinician may be managing many tens or hundreds of remote patients, prompting the need for a decision support system (DSS) to provide a more automated approach to managing these vast amounts of data. While simple threshold-based alert techniques provide some utility in notifying...
Cardiovascular disease is the second most prevalent cause of morbidity and mortality in women of developed countries. Although it is well established that gender is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, most gene expression analysis studies favour the identification of disease bio-markers and potential drug targets over combined populations. This study integrates genomic and systems approaches...
A screening method was developed to aid pig farmers with on farm diagnostics of Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae (APP) infected pigs. This novel approach compares the growth profile of APP in brain heart infusion and brain heart infusion broth enriched with fildes. The growth profile was monitored optically. Field trials were conducted, and reflected a sensitivity and specificity of 91% and 84.2%,...
