    Abstract : Background Diabetes mellitus can lead to complications, when the complication affects the eyes it is called retinopathy. This can affect the macula and lead to severe loss of vision, diabetic macular edema (DME). This condition has traditionally been treated with laser. READ MORE

  4. 2. Gait Event Detection in the Real World

    Author : Siddhartha Khandelwal; Nicholas Wickström; Thorsteinn Rögnvaldsson; Brian Caulfield; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gait analysis; gait event detection; wearable sensors; accelerometers;

    Abstract : Healthy gait requires a balance between various neuro-physiological systems and is considered an important indicator of a subject's physical and cognitive health status. As such, health-related applications would immensely benefit by performing long-term or continuous monitoring of subjects' gait in their natural environment and everyday lives. READ MORE
