Diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and left ventricular hypertrophy using frequency domain analysis of ECG signals
Background Cardiac conditions involving abnormal thickening of the heart muscle, such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), present significant diagnostic challenges due to their overlapping symptoms and similar manifestations in standard ECG readings. Existing diagnostic methods—including echocardiograms,...

Photoelastic Polymer Sensor
Executive Summary Sensors for measuring force or pressure are used in a wide variety of applications in industrial, healthcare and automation. Soft sensors, in particular, are used in applications where only low levels of stress are measured. However, one drawback with current soft sensors, is the long term repeatability and cost. Researchers at Michigan...

DNA Methylation Barriers
In normal differentiated cells, most of the genome is densely methylated, except CpG islands near promoters of actively transcribed genes. Maintaining this boundary between unmethylated promoter-associated and adjacent methylated regions is crucial as loss of segregation can lead to disease. Unfortunately, it is not clear where these boundaries are,...
