Abstract

The hype about sensorimotor learning is currently reaching high fever, thanks to the latest advancement in deep learning. In this paper, we present an open-source framework for collecting large-scale, time-synchronised synthetic data from highly disparate sensory modalities, such as audio, video, and proprioception, for learning robot manipulation tasks. We demonstrate the learning of non-linear sensorimotor mappings for a humanoid drumming robot that generates novel motion sequences from desired audio data using cross-modal correspondences. We evaluate our system through the quality of its cross-modal retrieval, for generating suitable motion sequences to match desired unseen audio or video sequences., Comment: Extended abstract

Abstract

Background: The Italian Society of Echocardiography and Cardiovascular Imaging (SIECVI) conducted a national survey to understand better how different echocardiographic modalities are used and accessed in Italy. Methods: We analyzed echocardiography laboratory activities over a month (November 2022). Data were retrieved via an electronic survey based on a structured questionnaire, uploaded on the SIECVI website. Results: Data were obtained from 228 echocardiographic laboratories: 112 centers (49%) in the northern, 43 centers (19%) in the central, and 73 (32%) in the southern regions. During the month of observation, we collected 101,050 transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) examinations performed in all centers. As concern other modalities there were performed 5497 transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) examinations in 161/228 centers (71%); 4057 stress echocardiography (SE) examinations in 179/228 centers (79%); and examinations with ultrasound contrast agents (UCAs) in 151/228 centers (66%). We did not find significant regional variations between the different modalities. The usage of picture archiving and communication system (PACS) was significantly higher in the northern (84%) versus central (49%) and southern (45%) centers (P < 0.001). Lung ultrasound (LUS) was performed in 154 centers (66%), without difference between cardiology and noncardiology centers. The evaluation of left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction was evaluated mainly using the qualitative method in 223 centers (94%), occasionally with the Simpson method in 193 centers (85%), and with selective use of the three-dimensional (3D) method in only 23 centers (10%). 3D TTE was present in 137 centers (70%), and 3D TEE in all centers where TEE was done (71%). The assessment of LV diastolic function was done routinely in 80% of the centers. Right ventricular function was evaluated using tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion in all centers, using tricuspid valve annular systolic velocity by tissue

Abstract

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is complicated by an early and progressive left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. Despite the reduction of ejection fraction (EF) usually manifests in the second decade, subtle alterations in LV mechanics can be detected earlier. Longitudinal and circumferential LV deformation, evaluated by speckle tracking echocardiography (STE), are considered sensitive markers of early dysfunction. We retrospectively examined clinical and echocardiographic data of 32 DMD children with preserved LV function. According to the median age, patients were then divided into younger and older than 9 years, and compared to 24 age-matched healthy subjects. Six-minute-walk test (6MWT), North Star Ambulatory Assessment (NSAA), and a comprehensive cardiac evaluation were performed. Although EF was within the normal range, DMD patients had significantly lower values than healthy controls, and the same occurred for the remaining conventional systolic and diastolic indices. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) was reduced in all patients (older and younger, both p < 0.001). Global circumferential strain (GCS) was reduced only in older patients (< 0.001). Both GLS and GCS worsened with age in DMD patients (GLS p = 0.005; GCS p = 0.024). GLS was significantly worse in the apical segments and in the postero-lateral wall. GCS in the antero-septal, anterior and antero-lateral segments was significantly reduced in older patients, with a prevalent involvement of the sole septal wall in the younger boys. 6MWT appeared to be correlated inversely to GLS and directly to EF. A longitudinal evaluation should be scheduled in DMD boys to assess the global cardiac performance over time and to evaluate the impact of therapies.

Abstract

Takotsubo syndrome is found in about 5%–6% of patients presenting with suspected ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography with left ventriculography is currently considered the modality of choice for the diagnosis. However, improvements of noninvasive diagnostic techniques have been allowing for definite assessment of ventricular function and anatomy. In this setting, the combined use of coronary computed tomography angiography and cardiac magnetic resonance may play a pivotal role for a complete noninvasive diagnosis and management of these patients. We present a case of a 52-year-old woman who presented to our department complaining chest pain and showing left ventricular systolic dysfunction, electrocardiography abnormalities, and mild elevation of cardiac-specific serum enzymes.

Abstract

Stage A and B heart failure (HF) include asymptomatic patients without and with structural cardiac disorder, respectively. Asymptomatic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction represents an early stage of HF that should be recognized to prevent overt HF development. Echocardiography plays a pivotal role in assessment of cardiac structure and function and represents the ideal imaging technique for screening in the general population, thanks to its availability, feasibility, and low cost. Traditional echocardiography, with LV systolic and diastolic function and cardiac remodeling assessment, is usually performed. Development of new technologies may offer additional information and insights in detection of early LV dysfunction.

25. Emergence of cobalt oxide nano-assemblies: X-ray in situ studies bridging the molecular- and macro- length scales

Abstract

The key to fabricate complex, hierarchical materials is the control of chemical reactions at various length scales. The classical model of nucleation and growth fails to provide sufficient information. Here, we illustrate how modern X-ray spectroscopic and scattering in situ studies bridge the molecular- and macro- length scales for an assembly of CoO polyhedral shape nanocrystals. By combining high energy-resolution fluorescence-detected X-ray absorption near edge structure (HERFD-XANES) measurements and FEFF simulation, we directly access the molecular level of the reaction. We reveal that initially Co(acac)3 rapidly reduces to Co(acac)2 and coordinates to oxygen atoms of two solvent molecules, forming a bis-adduct of the square-planar Co(acac)2 with octahedral coordination. Unlike a classical nucleation and growth mechanism, we observe that nuclie as small as 2 nm assemble into superstructures of 20 nm. The individual nanoparticles and assemblies continue growing at a similar pace. The final assemblies are smaller than 100 nm and maintain their spherical shape, while the nanoparticles reach a size of 6 nm and adopt various polyhedral, edgy shapes. Our work thus provides a comprehensive perspective on the emergence of nano-assemblies in solution

Abstract

AIMS: The present study sought to evaluate the correlation between indices of non-invasive myocardial work (MW) and left ventricle (LV) size, traditional and advanced parameters of LV systolic and diastolic function by 2D echocardiography (2DE). METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 226 (85 men, mean age: 45 ± 13 years) healthy subjects were enrolled at 22 collaborating institutions of the Normal Reference Ranges for Echocardiography (NORRE) study. Global work index (GWI), global constructive work (GCW), global work waste (GWW), and global work efficiency (GWE) were estimated from LV pressure-strain loops using custom software. Peak LV pressure was estimated non-invasively from brachial artery cuff pressure. LV size, parameters of systolic and diastolic function and ventricular-arterial coupling were measured by echocardiography. As advanced indices of myocardial performance, global longitudinal strain (GLS), global circumferential strain (GCS), and global radial strain (GRS) were obtained. On multivariable analysis, GWI was significantly correlated with GLS (standardized beta-coefficient = -0.23, P < 0.001), ejection fraction (EF) (standardized beta-coefficient = 0.15, P = 0.02), systolic blood pressure (SBP) (standardized beta-coefficient = 0.56, P < 0.001) and GRS (standardized beta-coefficient = 0.19, P = 0.004), while GCW was correlated with GLS (standardized beta-coefficient = -0.55, P < 0.001), SBP (standardized beta-coefficient = 0.71, P < 0.001), GRS (standardized beta-coefficient = 0.11, P = 0.02), and GCS (standardized beta-coefficient = -0.10, P = 0.01). GWE was directly correlated with EF and inversely correlated with Tei index (standardized beta-coefficient = 0.18, P = 0.009 and standardized beta-coefficient = -0.20, P = 0.004, respectively), the opposite occurred for GWW (standardized beta-coefficient =--0.14, P = 0.03 and standardized beta-coefficient = 0.17, P = 0.01, respectively). CONCLUSION: The non-invasive MW indices show a good correlati
