    • In this paper, we proposed a novel zero velocity detector, the Dynamic-Vision-Sensor (DVS)-Aided Stance Phase Optimal dEtection (SHOE) detector, for Zero-velocity-UPdaTe (ZUPT)-Aided Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) augmented by a foot-mounted event-based camera DVS128. We observed that the firing rate of the DVS consistently increased during the swing phase and decreased during the stance phase in indoor walking experiments. We experimentally determined that the optimal placement configuration for zero-velocity detection is to mount the DVS next to an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and face the sensor outward. The DVS-SHOE detector was derived in a General Likelihood Ratio Test (GLRT) framework, combining statistics of the conventional SHOE detector and the DVS firing rate. This paper used two methods to evaluate the proposed DVS-SHOE detector. First, we compared the detection performances of the SHOE detector and the DVS-SHOE detector. The experimental results showed that the DVS-SHOE detector achieved a lower false alarm rate than the SHOE detector. Second, we compared the navigation performance of the ZUPT-Aided INS using the SHOE detector and the DVS detector. The experimental results showed that the Circular Error Probable (CEP) of the case using DVS-SHOE was reduced by around 25 % from 1.2 m to 0.9 m, as compared to the case of the SHOE detector.

  • Multicenter prospective evaluation of diagnostic potential of flow cytometric aberrancies in myelodysplastic syndromes by the ELN iMDS flow working group
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Cytometry Part B - Clinical Cytometry. - : Wiley. - 1552-4949 .- 1552-4957. ; 104:1, s. 51-65

    • Background: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) represent a diagnostic challenge. This prospective multicenter study was conducted to evaluate pre-defined flow cytometric markers in the diagnostic work-up of MDS and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Methods: Thousand six hundred and eighty-two patients with suspected MDS/CMML were analyzed by both cytomorphology according to WHO 2016 criteria and flow cytometry according to ELN recommendations. Flow cytometric readout was categorized ‘non-MDS’ (i.e. no signs of MDS/CMML and limited signs of MDS/CMML) and ‘in agreement with MDS’ (i.e., in agreement with MDS/CMML). Results: Flow cytometric readout categorized 60% of patients in agreement with MDS, 28% showed limited signs of MDS and 12% had no signs of MDS. In 81% of cases flow cytometric readouts and cytomorphologic diagnosis correlated. For high-risk MDS, the level of concordance was 92%. A total of 17 immunophenotypic aberrancies were found independently related to MDS/CMML in ≥1 of the subgroups of low-risk MDS, high-risk MDS, CMML. A cut-off of ≥3 of these aberrancies resulted in 80% agreement with cytomorphology (20% cases concordantly negative, 60% positive). Moreover, >3% myeloid progenitor cells were significantly associated with MDS (286/293 such cases, 98%). Conclusion: Data from this prospective multicenter study led to recognition of 17 immunophenotypic markers allowing to identify cases ‘in agreement with MDS’. Moreover, data emphasizes the clinical utility of immunophenotyping in MDS diagnostics, given the high concordance between cytomorphology and the flow cytometric readout. Results from the current study challenge the application of the cytomorphologically defined cut-off of 5% blasts for flow cytometry and rather suggest a 3% cut-off for the latter.

  • A randomized controlled trial investigating effects of an individualized pedometer driven walking program on chronic low back pain
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders. - : Springer Nature. - 1471-2474. ; 22:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Walking is an easily prescribed physical activity for people with low back pain (LBP). However, the evidence for its effectiveness to improve pain and disability levels for people with chronic low back pain (CLBP) within a community setting has not been evaluated. This study evaluates the effectiveness of a clinician guided, pedometer-driven, walking intervention for increasing physical activity and improving clinical outcomes compared to education and advice. Methods: Randomized controlled trial recruiting N = 174 adults with CLBP. Participants were randomly allocated into either a standardized care group (SG) or pedometer based walking group (WG) using minimization allocation with a 2:1 ratio to the WG. Prior to randomization all participants were given a standard package of education and advice regarding self-management and the benefits of staying active. Following randomization the WG undertook a physiotherapist guided pedometer-driven walking program for 12 weeks. This was individually tailored by weekly negotiation of daily step targets. Main outcome was the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) recorded at baseline, 12 weeks, 6 and 12 months. Other outcomes included, numeric pain rating, International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ), Back Beliefs questionnaire (BBQ), Physical Activity Self-efficacy Scale, and EQ-5D-5L quality of life estimate. Results: N = 138 (79%) participants completed all outcome measures at 12 weeks reducing to N = 96 (55%) at 12 months. Both observed and intention to treat analysis did not show any statistically significant difference in ODI change score between the WG and the SG at all post-intervention time points. There were also no significant between group differences for change scores in all secondary outcome measures. Post hoc sensitivity analyses revealed moderately disabled participants (baseline ODI >= 21.0) demonstrated a greater reduction in mean ODI scores at 12 months in the WG compared to SG, while WG participants with a daily baseline step count < 7500 steps demonstrated a greater reduction in mean ODI scores at 12 weeks. Conclusions: Overall, we found no significant difference in change of levels of (ODI) disability between the SG and WG following the walking intervention. However, ODI responses to a walking program for those with moderate levels of baseline disability and those with low baseline step count offer a potential future focus for continued research into the benefit of walking as a management strategy for chronic LBP.

  • Systematic Review of Surgical Management of Nonmetastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma with Vena Caval Thrombus
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: European Urology. - : Elsevier BV. - 0302-2838 .- 1873-7560. ; 70:2, s. 265-280
  • Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
    • CONTEXT: Overall, 4-10% of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) present with venous tumour thrombus. It is uncertain which surgical technique is best for these patients. Appraisal of outcomes with differing techniques would guide practice.OBJECTIVE: To systematically review relevant literature comparing the outcomes of different surgical therapies and approaches in treating vena caval thrombus (VCT) from nonmetastatic RCC.EVIDENCE ACQUISITION: Relevant databases (Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library) were searched to identify relevant comparative studies. Risk of bias and confounding assessments were performed. A narrative synthesis of the evidence was presented.EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS: The literature search identified 824 articles. Fourteen studies reporting on 2262 patients were included. No distinct surgical method was superior for the excision of VCT, although the method appeared to be dependent on tumour thrombus level. Minimal access techniques appeared to have better perioperative and recovery outcomes than traditional median sternotomy, but the impact on oncologic outcomes is unknown. Preoperative renal artery embolisation did not offer any oncologic benefits and instead resulted in significantly worse perioperative and recovery outcomes, including possibly higher perioperative mortality. The comparison of cardiopulmonary bypass versus no cardiopulmonary bypass showed no differences in oncologic outcomes. Overall, there were high risks of bias and confounding.CONCLUSIONS: The evidence base, although derived from retrospective case series and complemented by expert opinion, suggests that patients with nonmetastatic RCC and VCT and acceptable performance status should be considered for surgical intervention. Despite a robust review, the findings were associated with uncertainty due to the poor quality of primary studies available. The most efficacious surgical technique remains unclear.PATIENT SUMMARY: We examined the literature on the benefits of surgery to remove kidney cancers that have spread to neighbouring veins. The results suggest such surgery, although challenging and associated with high risk of complications, appears to be feasible and effective and should be contemplated for suitable patients if possible; however, many uncertainties remain due to the poor quality of the data.
