TL;DR: A linear regression model that estimates the CW can be used to assess the effect of individual parameters on specific waveform features, such that the response can be quantified independently of other parameters as a family of CWs over a specified range.

TL;DR: An implantable electromagnetic actuator to restore the capacity to blink is described, triggered synchronously with the contralateral eye, and externally modifiable to tailor treatment post-operatively to the individual.

TL;DR: The multilayer perceptron emerged as the best performing classifier for pump state detection due to its high accuracy as well as robustness against class noise.

TL;DR: Analysis of the cardiac period recovery after electrical stimulation of the vagus in the dog can be used to calculate the rate constant for the breakdown of acetylcholine at the sinoatrial node in theDog, an important index of parasympathetic function both at the cholinergic synapse and at the cardiac muscarinic receptor.

TL;DR: Using a new mathematical model of SA node activity and its vagal modulation, the complex recovery kinetics in the chronotropic response following prolonged vagal stimulation, including postvagal tachycardia are reproduced.
