In this study, we test the feasibility of the synergy- based approach for application in the realistic and clinically oriented framework of multi-degree of freedom (DOF) robotic control. We developed and tested online ten able-bodied subjects in a se...
BACKGROUND: Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) accumulates in cortical tubules in acute kidney injury (AKI) patients, with its levels associated with serum creatinine. However, the predictive value of NGAL level for contrast-induced ac...
BACKGROUND: Fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement requires adenosine injection. However, adenosine can induce conductive and rhythmic complications, or be contraindicated in some patients. Contrast-induced hyperemia could provide a simple first-l...
