Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Endovascular Repair: Profiling Postimplantation Morphometry and Hemodynamics with Image-Based Computational Fluid Dynamics
(2018)Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) has disseminated rapidly as an alternative to open surgical repair for the treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs), because of its reduced invasiveness, low mortality, and morbidity ... -
Affective analysis of patients in homecare video-assisted telemedicine using computational intelligence
(2020)The affective/emotional status of patients is strongly connected to the healing process and their health. Therefore, being aware of the psychological peaks and troughs of a patient provides the advantage of timely intervention ... -
Amiloride-sensitive sodium channels on the parietal human peritoneum: Evidence by ussing-type chamber experiments
(2007)The mesothelium is part of the peritoneal water and ion transport barrier essential for peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment and has a central role in the pathogenesis of peritoneal fibrosis and ultrafiltration failure ... -
Application of Radiomics and Decision Support Systems for Breast MR Differential Diagnosis
(2018)Over the years, MR systems have evolved from imaging modalities to advanced computational systems producing a variety of numerical parameters that can be used for the noninvasive preoperative assessment of breast pathology. ... -
Assistive system for elders suffering of dementia
(2018)This work proposes an innovative information home support system to be established at the houses of people suffering from dementia. The main innovations of the system are its transparent character that overcomes the need ... -
Buprenorphine and Methadone as Opioid Maintenance Treatments for Heroin-Addicted Patients Induce Oxidative Stress in Blood
(2019)Buprenorphine and methadone are two substances widely used in the substitution treatment of patients who are addicted to opioids. Although it is known that they partly act efficiently towards this direction, there is no ... -
A citizen telemonitoring strategy as envisaged for Central Greece
(2011)Renewing Health, a Pilot A, CIP/PSP project, funded from the European Commission, aims at implementing large-scale real-life test beds for the validation and subsequent evaluation of innovative telemedicine services using ... -
Comparison of physiological and post-endovascular aneurysm repair infrarenal blood flow
(2017)Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysms results in redirection of blood through the deployed endograft (EG). Even though EVAR is clinically effective, the absolute flow restoration is not warranted. ... -
Development of an mHealth open source platform for diabetic foot ulcers tele-consultations
(2012)Diabetes is one of the foremost causes of death in many countries and a leading cause of blindness, renal failure, and non-traumatic amputation. Therefore, diabetic foot ulceration and amputation cause extensive burden on ... -
Emotion Analysis in Hospital Bedside Infotainment Platforms Using Speeded up Robust Features
(2019)Far from the heartless aspect of bytes and bites, the field of affective computing investigates the emotional condition of human beings interacting with computers by means of sophisticated algorithms. Systems that integrate ... -
Enhanced human body fall detection utilizing advanced classification of video and motion perceptual components
(2009)The monitoring of human physiological data, in both normal and abnormal situations of activity, is interesting for the purpose of emergency event detection, especially in the case of elderly people living on their own. ... -
Hemodynamic profile of two aortic endografts accounting for their postimplantation position
(2017)Endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a clinically effective technique for treating anatomically eligible abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs), involving the deployment of an endograft (EG) that is designed to prevent blood ... -
Higher Infection Rate after ACL Reconstruction with Hamstrings Tendon Autografts Compared with Bone Patellar Bone Tendon Autografts: A Review
(2022)Infection after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is a rare but devastating complication resulting in a deleterious impact on knee function as well as an increased related cost for treatment and rehabilitation for ... -
Home assistive system for dementia
(2017)This work proposes an innovative home assisted system, based on the interaction of the stimulus earpiece. It addresses a need of people suffering from dementia as well as their familiars to be recognized by them and have ... -
Low Power EEG Data Encoding for Brain Neurostimulation Implants
(2022)Neurostimulation devices applied for the treatment of epilepsy that collect, encode, temporarily store, and transfer electroencephalographic (EEG) signals recorded intracranially from epileptic patients, suffer from short ... -
Oxidative Stress and Acute Kidney Injury in Critical Illness: Pathophysiologic Mechanisms - Biomarkers - Interventions, and Future Perspectives
(2017)Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a multifactorial entity that occurs in a variety of clinical settings. Although AKI is not a usual reason for intensive care unit (ICU) admission, it often complicates critically ill patients' ... -
PET Counting Response Variability Depending on Tumor Location, Activity, and Patient Obesity: A Feasibility Study of Solitary Pulmonary Nodule Using Monte Carlo
(2019)We aim to investigate the counting response variations of positron emission tomography (PET) scanners with different detector configurations in the presence of solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN). Using experimentally validated ... -
Rapid quantification of insulin degludec by immunopurification combined with liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry
(2020)Insulin degludec is an ultra-long-acting insulin analogue that is increasingly being used in diabetes due to its favourable efficacy and safety profile. Thus, there is an increasing demand for a reliable and specific ... -
Remodeling effects of carotid artery stenting versus endarterectomy with patch angioplasty in terms of morphology and hemodynamics
