Multisensing wearables for real-time monitoring of sweat electrolyte biomarkers during exercise and analysis on their correlation with core body temperature

Danick Briand, Silvia Demuru, Jaemin Kim, Brince Paul Kunnel, Vincent Gremeaux, Shu Wang

Sweat secreted by the human eccrine sweat glands can provide valuable biomarker information during exercise. Real-time non-invasive biomarker recordings are therefore useful for evaluating the physiological conditions of an athlete such as their hydration ...

3D Pose Based Feedback For Physical Exercises

Pascal Fua, Mathieu Salzmann, Isinsu Katircioglu, Sena Kiciroglu, Ziqi Zhao, Hugues François Rémi Vinzant, Yuan Cheng, Ziyi Zhao

Unsupervised self-rehabilitation exercises and physical training can cause serious injuries if performed incorrectly. We introduce a learning-based framework that identifies the mistakes made by a user and proposes corrective measures for easier and safer ...

Adaptive R-Peak Detection on Wearable ECG Sensors for High-Intensity Exercise

David Atienza Alonso, Elisabetta De Giovanni, Tomas Teijeiro Campo, Grégoire Millet

Objective: Continuous monitoring of biosignals via wearable sensors has quickly expanded in the medical and wellness fields. At rest, automatic detection of vital parameters is generally accurate. However, in conditions such as high-intensity exercise, sud ...

An Empirical and Subjective Model of Upper Extremity Fatigue Under Hypogravity

Volker Gass, Claude Nicollier, Tatiana Maillard

In the context of extra-terrestrial missions, the effects of hypogravity (0 < G < 1) on the human body can reduce the well-being of the crew, cause musculoskeletal problems and affect their ability to perform tasks, especially during long-term missions. To ...

Sphingolipids accumulate in aged muscle, and their reduction counteracts sarcopenia

Johan Auwerx, Davide D'Amico, Tanes Imamura de Lima, Qi Wang, Sébastien Robert Victor Herzig, Maroun Bou Sleiman, Martin Rainer Wohlwend, Peiling Luan, Pirkka-Pekka Untamo Laurila, Barbara Moreira Crisol

Age-related muscle dysfunction and sarcopenia are major causes of physical incapacitation in older adults and currently lack viable treatment strategies. Here we find that sphingolipids accumulate in mouse skeletal muscle upon aging and that both genetic a ...

Combining Optogenetic Stimulation and Motor Training Improves Functional Recovery and Perilesional Cortical Activity

Silvestro Micera, Maria Pasquini, Francesco Saverio Pavone

Background. An ischemic stroke is followed by the remapping of motor representation and extensive changes in cortical excitability involving both hemispheres. Although stimulation of the ipsilesional motor cortex, especially when paired with motor training ...

Acute RyR1 Ca2+ leak enhances NADH-linked mitochondrial respiratory capacity

Johan Auwerx, Umberto De Marchi, Tanes Imamura de Lima

Sustained ryanodine receptor (RyR) Ca2+ leak is associated with pathological conditions such as heart failure or skeletal muscle weakness. We report that a single session of sprint interval training (SIT), but not of moderate intensity continuous training ...

Impact of aerobic exercise type on blood flow, muscle energy metabolism, and mitochondrial biogenesis in experimental lower extremity artery disease

Rolf Gruetter, Carole Poitry-Yamate

Exercise training (ET) is recommended for lower extremity artery disease (LEAD) management. However, there is still little information on the hemodynamic and metabolic adaptations by skeletal muscle with ET. We examined whether hindlimb perfusion/vasculari ...

Statistical nature of the incipient plasticity in amorphous alloys

Shankha Nag

Statistical analyses of the first pop-in stress data, obtained by spherical tip-nanoindentation experiments on different metallic glasses (MGs) with tip radius, R-i, loading rate, (P) over dot, and structural state of the glass as experimental variables, s ...

Design of Dynamic Tangible Workspaces for Games: Application on Robot-Assisted Upper Limb Rehabilitation

Pierre Dillenbourg, Arzu Güneysu Özgür, Barbara Bruno, Ayberk Özgür

A key element for the success of any game is its ability to produce a different experience at each round, thus keeping the player engagement high. This is particularly important for those games that also have a serious objective, such as gamified rehabilit ...

Targeting mitochondrial bioenergetics and NAD+ metabolism during sarcopenia and regeneration of skeletal muscle

Tanja Sonntag

The progressive decline of muscle mass and function called sarcopenia is a multi-factorial process associated to frailty, disability, and low quality of life in the elderly. The co-factor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) becomes a limiting factor i ...

Overload blunts baroreflex only in overreached athletes

Jean-Marc Vesin, Grégoire Millet, Sasan Yazdani, Masih Nilchian

Heart rate variability (HRV) is commonly used to diagnose overreaching and monitor athletes’ responses to training. Baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) is modified by changes in training load and might be another means to detect overreaching. The goal of this stu ...
