When multiple ZigBee wireless personal area networks (WPANs) are in close proximity to each other, contentions and collisions in transmissions will lead to increased packet delays. However, there is no existing study on how delay performance would be affected in a crowded real-life environment where each person walking down a busy street would be wearing a ZigBee WPAN. This letter studies the use of ZigBee WPANs in such a real-life environment for real-time heart beat monitoring. To be pragmatic, we derived a mobility pattern from the analysis of a real-life video trace. Then, we estimated the delay performance from the video trace by combining data collected from ZigBee experiments. The results show that the 300 ms packet delay requirement will not be met for only 11% of the time. When failure occurs, it will last for an average duration of 1.4 s.

Ponies were administered at the level of 0.1mg per kg of body weight of acetylpromazine malate through the jugular vein. Sedative effect, clinical signs such as body temperature, and changes of red blood cell counts and serum glucose concentration were investigated. Sedation was induced 5 to 6 minutes after injection of acepromazine and sedative effect was lasted for 30 to 40 minutes. Responsive reactions, however, to external stimuli were remained. Change of body temperature was not observed and heart beat was increased at the stage of induction and respiratory rate was decreased during the sedative period. Red blood cell count was considerably decreased during sedation, and concentration of serum glucose showed a tendency to increase gradually from the induction.

본 논문은 음악 리듬의 비트간의 간격의 변화가 사람의 심박동 및 쾌적감에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위하여 음악 리듬의 박자를 규칙적인 다섯 단계의 변화를 적용하여 평가했다. 평가 항목으로는 (1) LF성분에 많은 영향을 보이는 심박동의 전력스펙트럼 분석과 (2) S.D.법으로 심리적 평가항목을 수행하였다. 실험 결과는, 박자의 변동이 일정한 정박자 리듬에서는 생체에 특이한 변화가 나타나지 않았지만 박자의 변동이 변화하는 리듬에서는 LF성분이 증가함으로 긴장과 불안이 유발됨을 알 수 있었다. 추가적으로 심박변동의 스펙트럼 분석를 통하여 얻을 수 있는 LF와 HF 성분사이의 비를 조사함으로 심리학적 불안을 평가하는 가능성을 제안한다.

본 연구는 이종 생체 신호를 이용하여 심장 박동 신호를 검출하도록 고안되었다. 제안 알고리즘은 이종 생체 신호의 특징점을 추출하는 과정과 이를 이용하여 심장 박동의 특징점을 추정하는 과정으로 구성되어 있다. 특히, electrocardiogram(ECG)의 특징점과 동일한 위상의 잡음 신호로 인해 특징점 추출이 난해한 경우 이종 생체 신호를 이용해 특징점의 위치를 추정하는 방법을 사용하였다. Physionet 의 Challenge/2014 데이터베이스에서 잡음이 존재하는 레코드를 대상으로 수행한 심장 박동 검출 실험에서 Sensitivity 는 98.97%, positive predictivity 는 99.54%를 기록했다.

Objectives : We tried to investigate the effects of Panax Ginseng Radix pharmacopuncture and Zizyphi Spinosi Semen pharmacopuncture on human body with the Heart Rate Variability (HRV) in adult man. As well as we tried to investigate how safe Panax Ginseng Radix and Zizyphi Spinosi Semen pharmacopuncture on the the human being. Methods : We investigated on 44 healthy volunteers consisted of 16 subjects in Panax Ginseng Radix pharmacopuncture group, 13 subjects in Zizyphi Spinosi Semen pharmacopuncture group and 15 subjects in Normal Saline. We ruled out subjects who wasn't stable by rest, with in the limit of normal heart beat(60-120cycle/min). Study form was a randomized, clinical trial. Each group was injected Panax Ginseng Radix pharmacopuncture, Zizyphi Spinosi Semen pharmacopuncture and Normal Saline $0.2m{\ell}$ at $GB_{21}$(Kyonjong). We measured HRV on 7 times : before and after injection per 5 minutes during 30 minutes. The SPSS 13.0 for windows was used to analyze the data by the paired t-test(in the group) and Anova test(among the groups) were used to verify the result. Results : 1. After Panax Ginseng Radix pharmacopuncture injection, SDNN was significantly high, pNN50 was significantly low, Ln(TP) was significantly high, Ln(VLF) was significantly high, Ln(LF) was significantly high at 30 minutes. 2. After Zizyphi Spinosi Semen pharmacopuncture injection, Complexity was significantly low, Ln(VLF) was significantly high at 30 minutes. 3. HRV-index made a significant difference between the Zizyphi Spinosi Semen pharmacopuncture and normal saline at 5 minutes(p=0.02). 4. There wasn's any pain the injected region and whole body, rubefaction, uredo, nausea, vomiting, colic, headache, dizziness within 24 hours. Measured data and mean value of Mean-HRV was within normal range. Conclusions : The results suggested that and Panax Ginseng Radix pharmacopuncture in healthy adult man tended to activate the vagus nervous system within normal range.

Purpose: In this paper, we propose an algorithm for detecting respiratory rate and heart beat of a driver of car by exploiting Doppler radar, and verifying the feasibility of the study through experiments. Method: In this paper, we propose a weighted peak detection technique using peak frequency values. The tests are performed in stop-state and driving-state, and the experiment result is analyzed by two proposed algorithms. Result: The results showed more than 95% and 96% accuracy of respiratory and heart rate, respectively. It also showed more than 72% and 84% accuracy of those even for driving experiments. Conclusion: The proposed detection scheme for vital signs can be used for the safety of the driver as well as for prevention of a large size of car accidents.

Background: Mahuang (Ephedra sinica STAPF) is well known as an herbal medicine and has been widely used to reduce body weight and increase athletic ability. However, as a result of reporting many cases of adverse effects on the cardiovascular system, use of dietary supplements containing ephedra was prohibited by the FDA. Objectives : The object of this study was to find the effectiveness of ephedra on weight loss without severe adverse effect. Methods : 16 healthy volunteers consisting of an ephedra group (N=8) and a placebo group (N=8) were investigated. Study form was a randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical trial. The ephedra group took 12g of ephedra while the placebo group took 12g of glutinous rice powder. Both groups were measured with BCA (body composition analysis) on weight loss and with HRV (heart rate variability) on its adverse effect before and after medication. Results : The following results were obtained after taking 12g of ephedra for 14 days. In the ephedra group, body weight reduced significantly. In the placebo group, there were no significant differences of body weight between before and after placebo treatment. There was a slight increase of heart beat rate and deactivation of cardiac activity. Parasympathetic nerves were deactivated, but balances of autonomic nervous system were well maintained. Conclusions : The results suggest that ephedra in healthy adults tends to reduce body weight and deactivation of autonomic nervous system and cardiac activity.
