Investigation of Autonomic Responses Derived from Polysomnography in Obstructive Sleep Apnea Patients Using Signal Processing Techniques

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is an important respiratory disease characterized by recurrent blockages of the throat (‘upper airway’) during sleep. These blockages result in short lapses in breathing. The low oxygen levels and disruption of sleep caused by OSA contribute to many problems including sleepiness, poor quality of life, awakenings during sleep, hypertension, heart disease, kidney disease, and dementia. OSA is usually diagnosed by a ‘sleep study’: patients stay overnight in the hospital and many biologic signals (i.e., brain wave patterns, heart rate, oxygen levels, breathing effort) are collected over 8 or more hours. The severity of OSA is usually measured by the apnea-hypopnea index (AHI), which is the number of times the throat closes or narrows per hour of sleep. However, the AHI does not predict symptoms of health outcomes of sleep apnea well. We believe that new ways of looking at the information collected during sleep studies might help predict what problems someone with OSA will have. The purpose of this project is to apply advanced computer techniques to information collected from a large group of patients with sleep apnea in order to develop tools that can better predict brain cardiovascular and autonomic dysfunction in patients with sleep…

Preparing bio-plastic form lignin and chitosan extracted from renewable resources

Plastics play a vital role in our daily lives, touching various sectors such as construction, healthcare, automotive, agriculture, and packaging. Packaging films, in particular, serve diverse purposes for both food and non-food items. However, the widespread use of disposable plastics leads to a significant waste issue. To address this, there’s a growing push to replace petroleum-based plastics with alternatives derived from renewable resources. This not only reduces our dependence on fossil fuels but also helps alleviate the environmental impact of non-biodegradable plastics. Our current project focuses on creating eco-friendly bioplastics from renewable sources like lignin and chitosan, extracted from green resources. These biodegradable and non-toxic alternatives aim to contribute to a safer, more sustainable planet.

Key factors influencing protein alternatives companies’ decisions to relocate from Canada to the United States

This project is designed to answer the question “What are the key elements and dynamics of the policy environment influencing the development and adoption of protein alternatives in the food system of Canada and the USA?” This question is from a broader question of how protein alternatives are governed in the current food system. Analyzing alternative proteins through a socio-technical transition lens provides valuable insights into their current status, future potential, and adoption trajectory as an emerging technology in food systems. The diffusion of these proteins serves as a dynamic example of market-driven transitions, where innovations and existing industries strive to offer sustainable solutions. Our conceptual framework’s primary focus lies in understanding the intricate dynamics between actors and institutions by zooming in on how participants in this innovation navigate within social structures, acknowledging their agency in shaping and being shaped by these structures.
