[HTML][HTML] Deep learning with wearable based heart rate variability for prediction of mental and general health

LV Coutts, D Plans, AW Brown, J Collomosse - Journal of Biomedical …, 2020 - Elsevier
The ubiquity and commoditisation of wearable biosensors (fitness bands) has led to a deluge
of personal healthcare data, but with limited analytics typically fed back to the user. The …

[HTML][HTML] Discomfort and the cortical haemodynamic response to coloured gratings

SM Haigh, L Barningham, M Berntsen, LV Coutts… - Vision research, 2013 - Elsevier
In five experiments we measured the amplitude of the haemodynamic response to visual
patterns using near infrared spectroscopy of the visual cortex. The patterns were gratings with …

Future technology on the flight deck: assessing the use of touchscreens in vibration environments

LV Coutts, KL Plant, M Smith, L Bolton, KJ Parnell… - Ergonomics, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
Use of touchscreens in the flight deck has been steadily increasing, however, their usability
may be severely impacted when turbulent conditions arise. Most previous research focusses …

Time course of the haemodynamic response to visual stimulation in migraine, measured using near-infrared spectroscopy

LV Coutts, CE Cooper, CE Elwell, AJ Wilkins - Cephalalgia, 2012 - journals.sagepub.com
Background: In patients with migraine, an abnormally large haemodynamic response to
epileptogenic visual stimulation has previously been observed, consistent with the hypothesis of …

Impact of therapeutic inertia on long-term blood pressure control: A Monte Carlo simulation study

A Augustin, L Coutts, L Zanisi, AS Wierzbicki… - …, 2021 - Am Heart Assoc
Antihypertensive drug treatment is based on stepped titration in response to elevated blood
pressure (BP) measurements. However, measurements do not necessarily represent an …

Reflectance of human skin using colour photometric stereo: with particular application to pigmented lesion analysis

J Sun, M Smith, L Smith, L Coutts… - Skin research and …, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
Background/purpose: The optical appearance of human skin is highly dependent on the
interaction between the illumination (type and position), observer position and the skin surface …

Variability in reference point microindentation and recommendations for testing cortical bone: location, thickness and orientation heterogeneity

LV Coutts, T Jenkins, T Li, DG Dunlop… - Journal of the …, 2015 - Elsevier
Reference Point Indentation (RPI) has been proposed as a new clinical tool to aid the
diagnosis of Osteoporosis. This study has examined the performance of the tool within entire …

Multi‐directional in vivo tensile skin stiffness measurement for the design of a reproducible tensile strain elastography protocol

L Coutts, J Bamber, N Miller - Skin Research and Technology, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Background/Aims Elastography is a promising new medical imaging modality, displaying
spatial distribution of biomechanical properties such as local tissue strain response to an …

Using EEG to characterise drowsiness during short duration exposure to elevated indoor Carbon Dioxide concentrations

S Snow, A Boyson, M Felipe-King, O Malik, L Coutts… - BioRxiv, 2018 - biorxiv.org
Drowsiness which can affect work performance, is often elicited through self- reporting. This
paper demonstrates the potential to use EEG to objectively quantify changes to drowsiness …

Site‐dependent reference point microindentation complements clinical measures for improved fracture risk assessment at the human femoral neck

T Jenkins, LV Coutts, S D'Angelo… - Journal of Bone and …, 2016 - academic.oup.com
