Ambulatory electrocardiography (AECG) is a primary diagnostic tool in patients with potential arrhythmic disorders. To study the pathophysiological mechanisms of arrhythmic disorders, mouse models are widely implemented. The use of a technique similar to AECG for mice is thus of great relevance. We have optimized a protocol which allows qualitative, long-term ECG data recording in conscious, freely moving mice. Automated algorithms were developed to efficiently process the large amount of data and calculate the average heart rate (HR), the mean peak-to-peak interval and heart rate variability (HRV) based on peak detection. Ectopic beats are automatically detected based on aberrant peak intervals. As we have incorporated a multiple lead configuration in our ECG set-up, the nature and origin of the suggested ectopic beats can be analyzed in detail. The protocol and analysis tools presented here are promising tools for studies which require detailed, long-term ECG characterization in mouse models with potential arrhythmic disorders.

Abstract Background Dipyridamole thallium imaging (DTI) and ambulatory electrocardiography (AEGC) have been advocated as means to stratify risk before vascular surgery. The purpose of this study was to compare the predictive value of both tests in noncardiac surgery patients for perioperative cardiac morbidity and long-term mortality.

Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in many developed countries. There is a need for cardiovascular monitoring devices that can supplement traditional medical and clinical care by enabling the diagnosis of conditions with infrequent symptoms, the timely detection of critical signs that are precursors to sudden cardiac death, and the long-term management of chronic conditions through monitoring of symptoms, risk factors, and the effects of therapy. This paper provides an overview of ambulatory electrocardiogram (ECG) monitors, which are one of the most widely prescribed diagnostic procedures for cardiovascular disease. The engineering challenges associated with ambulatory electrocardiography are discussed, and technological improvement areas that are the focus of current research effort are reviewed.

AbstractNeurobiology-based interventions for mental diseases and searches for useful biomarkers of treatment response have largely failed. Clinical trials should assess interventions related to environmental and social stressors, with long-term follow-up; social rather than biological endpoints; personalized outcomes; and suitable cluster, adaptive, and n-of-1 designs. Labor, education, financial, and other social/political decisions should be evaluated for their impacts on mental disease.

AbstractRapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) of words or pictured scenes provides evidence for a large-capacity conceptual short-term memory (CSTM) that momentarily provides rich associated material from long-term memory, permitting rapid chunking (Potter 1993; 2009; 2012). In perception of scenes as well as language comprehension, we make use of knowledge that briefly exceeds the supposed limits of working memory.
