There is a growing trend in the use of severe caloric restrictive diets among normal weight young females that can jeopardize bone health. Using an animal model, the purpose of this study was to determine whether resistance training (RT) could maintain bone health during a 6-week severe caloric restrictive (CR) diet in growing female rats. Twenty-f...

Polysomnography, the gold standard diagnostic tool in sleep medicine, is performed in an artificial environment. This might alter sleep and may not accurately reflect typical sleep patterns. While macro-structures are sensitive to environmental effects, micro-structures remain more stable. In this study we applied semi-automated algorithms to captu...

Background: Polysomnography (PSG), the gold standard diagnostic tool in sleep medicine, typically evaluates sleep patterns and sleep-related disorders in an artificial environment, potentially leading to distorted sleep. Sleep macro-structures such as sleep stages are particularly sensitive to environmental effects, whereas micro-structures (i.e.,...

Objective : To explore noise characteristics and the effect physiological activity has on the link between impedance and noise. Approach : Dry-printed electrodes are emerging as a new and exciting technology for skin electro-physiology. Such electrode arrays offer many advantages including user convenience, quick placement, and high resolution. Her...

Sleep disorders are symptomatic hallmarks of a variety of medical conditions. Accurately identifying the specific stage in which these disorders occur is particularly important for the correct diagnosis of non‐rapid eye movement and rapid eye movement parasomnias. In‐lab polysomnography suffers from limited availability and does not reflect habitua...

Computer vision (CV) is widely used in the investigation of facial expressions. Applications range from psychological evaluation to neurology, to name just two examples. CV for identifying facial expressions may suffer from several shortcomings: CV provides indirect information about muscle activation, it is insensitive to activations that do not i...

The purpose of this study was to determine the minimum amount of resistance exercise that would stimulate bone formation yielding an elevation in bone mineral density (BMD) during the growth period in female rats. Female rats were randomly divided into: Control (Con, n=8), 3 ladder climb resistance-trained group (3LC, n=8), 4 ladder climb resistanc...
