Novel theory and potential applications of central diastolic pressure decay time constant

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Georgios Rovas, Sokratis Anagnostopoulos, Vasiliki Bikia, Patrick Segers

Central aortic diastolic pressure decay time constant ( ) is according to the two-element Windkessel model equal to the product of total peripheral resistance (R) times total arterial compliance (C ). As such, it is related to arterial stiffness, which has ...

How Does Pre-Trained Wav2Vec 2.0 Perform On Domain-Shifted Asr? An Extensive Benchmark On Air Traffic Control Communications

Petr Motlicek, Juan Pablo Zuluaga Gomez, Amrutha Prasad

Recent work on self-supervised pre-training focus on leveraging large-scale unlabeled speech data to build robust end-to-end (E2E) acoustic models (AM) that can be later fine-tuned on downstream tasks e.g., automatic speech recognition (ASR). Yet, few work ...

Assessment of brain metabolite correlates of AAV-mediated overexpression of human alpha-synuclein in cortical neurons by in vivo(1) H-MR spectroscopy at 9.4 T

Sarah Catherine Sonnay

In this study, we used proton-localized spectroscopy ((1) H-MRS) for the acquisition of the neurochemical profile longitudinally in a novel rat model of human wild type alpha-synuclein (a-syn) overexpression. Our goal was to find out if the increased a-syn ...
