“…We assessed the number, depths and area of luminal trails using environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM), white light interferometry (WLI) and optical profilometry using area scale fractal complexity (asfc) as surface parameters. A total of 15 eSheaths were retrieved and analyzed after successful femoral transcatheter Sapien 3 implantation in patients (23 mm valve– 14F eSheath, 26 mm valve– 14F eSheath and 29 mm valve– 16F eSheath, n = 5 for each group). …”

“…We found significantly altered microvascular network in individuals with CI (larger venular-asymmetry factor: 0.7 ± 0.2) compared with controls (0.6 ± 0.2). The vascular fractal dimension was lower in individuals with CI (capacity, information and correlation dimensions: D(0), D(1,) and D(2) (mean ± SD): 1.57 ± 0.06; 1.56 ± 0.06; 1.55 ± 0.06; age 81 ± 6years) vs. controls (1.61 ± 0.03; 1.59 ± 0.03; 1.58 ± 0.03; age: 80 ± 7 years). …”

“…A customized MATLAB program was then used to quantify DCP morphology from the artifact-free DCP images by calculating three metrics: foveal avascular zone (FAZ), vessel density (VD), and fractal dimension (FD). RESULTS: 166 (29.5%) eyes were excluded after quality control, leaving in the analysis 397 eyes (170 with no DR, 101 with mild DR, 90 with moderate DR, 36 with severe DR) from 250 subjects. …”

“…MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Retinal vascular diameters, the central retinal arteriolar equivalent (CRAE), central retinal venular equivalent (CRVE), vessel tortuosity, and fractal dimensions were determined. Attention and psychomotor speed, visuospatial working memory, and short-term visual recognition memory were assessed by the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery, including the following tasks: Motor Screening (MOT), Big/Little Circle (BLC), Spatial Span (SSP), and Delayed Matching to Sample (DMS). …”

“…To select features, we first use the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) or empirical mode decomposition (EMD) to decompose the EEG signals into a set of sub-bands, for which we compute the instantaneous and Teager energy and the Higuchi and Petrosian fractal dimensions for each sub-band. The obtained features are used as input for the local outlier factor (LOF) algorithm to create a model for each subject, with the aim of learning from it and rejecting instances not related to the subject in the model. …”

“…METHODS: Retinal microvascular parameters (fractal dimension [FD] – a measure of the complexity of the vascular network, tortuosity, and retinal arteriolar and venular calibre) were quantified from macula-centred fundus images using the Vessel Assessment and Measurement Platform for Images of the REtina (VAMPIRE) version 3.1 (VAMPIRE group, Universities of Dundee and Edinburgh, Scotland) and assessed for associations with renal damage in a case-control study nested within the multi-centre UK Biobank cohort study. …”
