Monitoring cancer through the blood

Hypertension staging through ambulatory blood pressure monitoring.

This issue of Hypertension includes an article by Bur et al1 that focuses on the comparison between clinic and ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) values in patients with moderate to severe hypertension. The primary goal of the Bur study was to obtain a classification of hypertensive patients, based on the ABP values corresponding to the clinic blood pressure (BP) values that have been used to stag...

Optoacoustic monitoring of cerebral venous blood oxygenation through extracerebral blood

There is strong clinical evidence that controlling cerebral venous oxygenation (oxyhemoglobin saturation) is critically important for patients with severe traumatic brain injury as well as for patients undergoing cardiac surgery. However, the only available method for cerebral venous blood oxygenation monitoring is invasive and requires catheterization of the internal jugular vein. We designed ...

Regional Evaluation of Hydrometric Monitoring Stations through Using Entropy Theory

Proper design and operation of monitoring systems for water resources management is one of themost important issues of water quality and quantity and accuracy and adequacy of data. The properevaluation of these data has a determining role in the correctand consistent decisions in the areacovered by the system. Therefore, determining proper distribution and number of monitoringnetwork stations a...

improvement of modeling quality through monitoring techniques

modeling is one of the most interesting areas in various fields of science. unfortunately data quality, which has an important role in the modeling, is not considered. in fact, most often processes encounter disturbances which results in the collection of abnormal data and may lead to a model different from the real behavior of the process. on the other hand, most of real industrial processes a...
