Analysis of Smartphone Triaxial Accelerometry for Monitoring Sleep-Disordered Breathing and Sleep Position at Home
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-04-13)
Article
Open AccessObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a sleep disorder in which repetitive upper airway obstructive events occur during sleep. These events can induce hypoxia, which is a risk factor for multiple cardiovascular and cerebrovascular ... -
Design, implementation, and validation of a piezoelectric device to study the effects of dynamic mechanical stimulation on cell proliferation, migration and morphology
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2020-04-10)
Article
Open AccessCell functions and behavior are regulated not only by soluble (biochemical) signals but also by biophysical and mechanical cues within the cells’ microenvironment. Thanks to the dynamical and complex cell machinery, cells ... -
In vitro generation of novel functionalized biomaterials for use in oral and dental regenerative medicine applications. Running title: Fibrin-agarose functionalized scaffolds
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2020-04-01)
Article
Open AccessRecent advances in tissue engineering offer innovative clinical alternatives in dentistry and regenerative medicine. Tissue engineering combines human cells with compatible biomaterials to induce tissue regeneration. ... -
Encapsulation and storage of therapeutic fibrin-homing peptides using conducting polymer nanoparticles for programmed release by electrical stimulation
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2020-04-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyCys-Arg-Glu-Lys-Ala (CREKA) is an important fibrin-homing pentapeptide that has been extensively demonstrated for diagnoses and therapies (e.g., image diagnosis of tumors and to inhibit tumor cell migration and invasion). ... -
Prediction of three-dimensional crutch walking patterns using a torque-driven model
(2020-06-29)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyComputational prediction of 3D crutch-assisted walking patterns is a challenging problem that could be applied to study different biomechanical aspects of crutch walking in virtual subjects, to assist physiotherapists to ... -
Identifying muscle synergies from reaching and grasping movements in rats
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2020-01-01)
Article
Open AccessReaching and grasping (R&G) is a skilled voluntary movement which is critical for animals. In this work, we aim to identify muscle synergy patterns from R&G movements in rats and show how these patterns can be used to ... -
Cardiovascular coupling-based classification of ischemic and dilated cardiomyopathy patients
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019)
Conference lecture
Open AccessCardiovascular diseases are one of the most common causes of death in elderly patients. The etiology of cardiomyopathies is difficult to discern clinically. The objective of this study was to classify cardiomyopathy patients ... -
Dynamic and irregular distribution of RyR2 clusters in the periphery of live ventricular myocytes
(2018-01-23)
Article
Open AccessCardiac ryanodine receptors (RyR2s) are Ca2+ release channels clustering in the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane. These clusters are believed to be the elementary units of Ca2+ release. The distribution of these Ca2+ release ... -
Comparison of different optimal control formulations for generating dynamically consistent crutch walking simulations using a torque-driven model
(2020-12)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyWalking impairment due to spinal cord injury can be improved using active orthoses, together with some type of external support such as crutches for balance. This study explores how optimal control problem formulation ... -
A fuzzy approach for feature extraction of brain tissues in Non-Contrast CT
(Sociedad Mexicana de Ingeniería Biomedíca, 2018-01-15)
Article
Open AccessIn neuroimaging, brain tissue segmentation is a fundamental part of the techniques that seek to automate the detection of pathologies, the quantification of tissues or the evaluation of the progress of a treatment. Because ... -
Exoesqueletos robóticos para volver a caminar
(Fundació Institut Guttmann, 2019-12-01)
Article
Open AccessAproximadamente el 60% de los pacientes con problemas neuromusculares padecen trastornos de la marcha que, a su vez, tienen un elevado impacto en su calidad de vida. -
Impact of biomimicry in the design of osteoinductive bone substitutes: nanoscale matters
(2019-01-01)
Article
Open Access
Covenantee: Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona / Uppsala universitet / Universitat de Barcelona. Departament de Patologia i Terapèutica Experimental / Institut de Bioenginyeria de CatalunyaBone apatite consists of carbonated calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA) nanocrystals. Biomimetic routes allow fabricating synthetic bone grafts that mimic biological apatite. In this work, we explored the role of two ...
