Purpose The goal of optimizing electrogram acquisition in electrophysiology imaging is to minimize the number of electrodes used, determine their optimal placement, and ensure accurate imaging. Methods We quantitatively evaluated the impact of the electrode number and placement on the accuracy of human uterine peristalsis imaging (UPI) using adapted minimum nonzero eigenvalue pursuit (MNEP), adapted maximal projection on minim...

Purpose Cerebral palsy (CP) is typically associated with abnormal gait that may alter knee joint loading and accelerate joint degeneration. We developed an integrated musculoskeletal-finite element (MSK-FE) framework to quantify differences in knee joint biomechanics between children with CP and typically developing (TD) peers. Methods Gait data from 13 children (TD, n = 5; hemiplegia [HP], n = 4; diplegia [DP], n = 4) were an...

Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) is the process of endothelial cells undergoing molecular changes that shift their phenotype from that of endothelial cells to that of mesenchymal-like cells. It is a crucial developmental process that has been implicated in various physiological and pathological conditions. EndMT has gained attention as a potential therapeutic target for cardiovascular disease processes, including...
