Quantifying the Suitability of Biosignals Acquired During Surgery for Multimodal Analysis by Ennio Idrobo-Avila, Gergo Bognar, Dagmar Krefting, Thomas Penzel, Peter Kovacs, Nicolai Spicher

“…<italic>Goal:</italic> Recently, large datasets of biosignals acquired during surgery became available. As they offer multiple physiological signals measured in parallel, multimodal analysis &#x2013; which involves their joint analysis &#x2013; can be conducted and could provide deeper insights than unimodal analysis based on a single signal. …”

“…Serum irisin was significantly higher in group A compared with group B (45.15±10.48 versus 35.38±9.97 ng/ml, P<0.001) and correlated with body mass index (r=0.314, P=0.011), fasting blood glucose (r=0.399, P=0.001), total cholesterol (r=0.256, P=0.040), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (r=0.247, P=0.047). In multiple regression analysis after controlling for confounders, only fasting blood glucose (β=5.615, P<0.001) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (β=19.483, P<0.001) were independently related to serum irisin. …”
