An Evaluation Of Heart Rate Monitoring With In-Ear Microphones Under Motion, Kayla-Jade Butkow, Ting Dang, Andrea Ferlini, Dong Ma, Yang Liu, Cecilia Mascolo
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
With the soaring adoption of in-ear wearables, the research community has started investigating suitable in-ear heart rate detection systems. Heart rate is a key physiological marker of cardiovascular health and physical fitness. Continuous and reliable heart rate monitoring with wearable devices has therefore gained increasing attention in recent years. Existing heart rate detection systems in wearables mainly rely on photoplethysmography (PPG) sensors, however, these are notorious for poor performance in the presence of human motion. In this work, leveraging the occlusion effect that enhances low-frequency bone-conducted sounds in the ear canal, we investigate for the first time in-ear audio-based motion-resilient …

Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Adults aged 65 years and above have grown substantially over with past decade. However, the chance of developing multiple comorbidities only increases with age. Because elderly residents of rural Appalachia often encounter barriers to healthcare, rural nurses, providers, and policy makers must overcome physical and structural barriers, but also gain a more in-depth understanding of the personal and cultural attitudes impacting the use of new and innovative forms of healthcare delivery. With a slow and variable uptake of telehealth adoption in rural Appalachia, and in the presence of well-documented medical mistrust, this study was designed to better understand the degree …

Revista de la Facultad de Medicina Humana
Mr Editor Infection at the operating site (ISO) is the most common postoperative surgical complication in general surgery. This is more frequent in cases of emergency interventions, compromises the patient's prognosis, causes high health costs, and signicantly increases the risk of reintervention. Negative pressure therapy (NPT) is an innovative strategy that was proposed about two decades ago, and has been gradually replicated around the world. This means that there are still many gaps in the evidence when it is used in many diseases and under different contexts. Nevertheless, it allows obtaining conclusive results in the time of healing, reduction of …

Revista de la Facultad de Medicina Humana
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) are mesenchymal neoplasms that represent less than 3% of gastrointestinal neoplasms, with an incidence of 1 to 2 cases per hundred thousand inhabitants. It originates more frequently in the stomach and small intestine and is characterized by the expression of the tyrosine kinase growth factor receptor, CD117. Therefore, its diagnosis requires an immunohischemical study to rule it out from other mesenchymal tumors. However, enteroscopic imaging and analysis of the biopsy may suggest a preoperative diagnosis of probable GIST. The case of a 62-year-old woman with rectorrhagia and recurrent anemia caused by mid-intestinal bleeding observed by capsule …
Nongenetic Causes Of Hypertyrosinemia That Must Be Considered When Interpreting A Finding Of Elevated Urinary Tyrosine, Manuel André Virú-Loza
Nongenetic Causes Of Hypertyrosinemia That Must Be Considered When Interpreting A Finding Of Elevated Urinary Tyrosine, Manuel André Virú-Loza
Revista de la Facultad de Medicina Humana
Mr. Editor. In several countries, newborns are screened for tyrosinemia type 1 using tyrosine as a primary marker. In some situations, elevated blood tyrosine levels are discovered due to elevated tyrosine on a urine metabolic screen. In Peru, some pediatric patients suspected of having a genetic condition (inborn error of metabolism) undergo a metabolic screening in urine that includes - among other things - the qualitative detection of tyrosine. However, when there are high levels of tyrosine in the urine this does not always mean that the patient has a genetic condition. Hypertyrosinemia is most often non-genetic in origin. Therefore, …

Introduction: Digestive bleeding can put patients’ lives at risk, even more so when the origin is not located in routine upper and lower endoscopy. The small intestine is the largest portion of the digestive tract and being a source of bleeding means a diagnostic and therapeutic medical challenge. Clinical case: We presented cases of two female patients, 53 and 60 years old, who develop digestive bleeding, locating its origin in the small bowel and undergoing surgical removal of the affected intestinal segment. The anatomopathological study finds malformed arteries and veins that communicate without an intermediate capillary bed. The diagnosis was …

Introduction: One of the main complications of spine tuberculosis is the instability produced by the injury of the articular structures between the vertebrae as well as the adjacent tissues, which, depending on the degree of involvement, can lead to angular kyphosis with the consequent risk of neurological impairment that can end with paraplegia. While the criteria for vertebral instability secondary to tuberculosis were identified and the pathophysiological processes that determine the progression of kyphosis following tuberculosis were deter mined, there is no new criteria, following Rajasekaran’s 2001 work, which demon strated which imaging signs could predict a kyphosis progression in …

Introduction: Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that ranks as the thirteenth cause of death worldwide. As is known, tuberculo sis is not only limited to the lungs, but there is a wide range of extrapulmonary pathologies. Current diagnostic methods for spinal tuberculosis are limited by the time factor in order to provide results early and reliably. GeneX pert MTB/RIF is currently available as an al ternative, fast and reliable test for pathogen identification.
Methodology: This systematic review adheres to the PRISMA [1] criteria. The objective of the systematic review was to analyze the quality of the evidence gener ated on …

Introduction: Vertebral biopsy, espe cially percutaneous biopsy for histopathologi cal study and culture, continues to be the Gold Standard in the Diagnosis of Spinal Tubercu losis since the last century, however, there are no recent systematic reviews of the literature on its effectiveness in this pathology.
Method: A systematic review was car ried out on the PubMed platform, with the keywords ”Spinal tuberculosis” and ”Biopsy” in the title and abstract with a time limitation from January 1, 2017 to October 26, 2022. A summary of 11 selected articles was prepared, a list of the variables used in each article was …
