E-prints UPC cobreix dues finalitats: per una banda, és el dipòsit institucional de la UPC que recull els articles de revista, les comunicacions de congrés i els reports de recerca generats en les activitats de recerca del personal docent i investigador de la universitat; per l'altra, és una eina que permet accelerar la producció científica, allotjant versions de documents prèvies a la publicació en una revista o a les actes d’un congrés.

Evaluation of Respiratory Muscles Activity by means of Cross Mutual Information Function at Different Levels of Ventilatory Effort - Alonso López, Joan Francesc; Mañanas Villanueva, Miguel Ángel; Hoyer, Dirk; Bruce, Eugene N.; Zbigniew L., Topor
Analysis of respiratory muscles activity is an effective technique for the study of pulmonary diseases such as obstructive
sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). Respiratory diseases, especially those associated with changes in the mechanical properties of the
respiratory apparatus, are often associated with disruptions of the normally highly coordinated contractions of respiratory muscles.
Due to the complexity of the respiratory control, the assessment of OSAS related dysfunctions by linear methods are not sufficient. Therefore, the objective of this study was the detection of diagnostically
relevant nonlinear complex respiratory mechanisms. Two aims of this work were: 1) to assess coordination of respiratory
muscles contractions through evaluation of interactions...
