Maternal Anxiety During Pregnancy and Predictive Processing Across Development: A Cross-Cohort Empirical Reappraisal
Bea R. H. Van den Bergh, Martin G. Frasch
Prenatal maternal distress has been linked to differences in offspring brain and behavioural development, but is rarely framed computationally. Predictive-processing (PP) accounts…
Dose-Dependent Cardiac Complexity Changes in Children Following Prenatal Glucocorticoid Exposure: Complementary Evidence from Multiscale Entropy Analysis and ECG Foundation Models
Nicolas B. Garnier, Michelle Dreiling, Valeska Kozik +3
\noindent\textbf{Background} Prenatal glucocorticoid exposure alters cardiac development, but whether persistent cardiac effects in childhood follow a dose-response relationship re…
Prenatal Stress Detection from Electrocardiography Using Self-Supervised Deep Learning: Development and External Validation
Martin G. Frasch, Marlene J. E. Mayer, Clara Becker +4
Prenatal psychological stress affects 15-25% of pregnancies and increases risks of preterm birth, low birth weight, and adverse neurodevelopmental outcomes. Current screening relie…
Measuring the time-scale-dependent information flow between maternal and fetal heartbeats during the third trimester
Nicolas B. Garnier, Maria S. Molinet, Marta C. Antonelli +2
Prenatal maternal stress alters maternal-fetal heart rate coupling, as demonstrated by the Fetal Stress Index derived from bivariate phase-rectified signal averaging. Here, we exte…
Heart Rate Variability Patterns Reflect Yoga Intervention in Chronically Stressed Pregnant Women: A Quasi-Randomized Controlled Trial
Marlene J E Mayer, Nicolas B Garnier, Clara Becker +3
Prenatal maternal stress (PS) is a risk factor for adverse offspring neurodevelopment. Heart rate variability (HRV) complexity provides a non-invasive marker of maternal autonomic…
Cross-Domain Transfer of Depression Voice Biomarkers Depends on the Outcome Instrument: Leakage-Controlled Cross-Sectional Evaluation Study
Rachel L. Wiley, James Schwoebel, Matias Caccia +4
Whether voice biomarkers of depression generalize across clinical settings is largely untested. Generalization is usually framed as a question about populations. It is also a quest…
Detection of preventable fetal distress during labor from scanned cardiotocogram tracings using deep learning
Martin G. Frasch, Shadrian B. Strong, David Nilosek +2
Despite broad application during labor and delivery, there remains considerable debate about the value of electronic fetal monitoring (EFM). EFM includes the surveillance of the fe…
Detection of Maternal and Fetal Stress from the Electrocardiogram with Self-Supervised Representation Learning
Pritam Sarkar, Silvia Lobmaier, Bibiana Fabre +5
In the pregnant mother and her fetus, chronic prenatal stress results in entrainment of the fetal heartbeat by the maternal heartbeat, quantified by the fetal stress index (FSI). D…
Heart rate variability monitoring identifies asymptomatic toddlers exposed to Zika virus during pregnancy
Christophe L. Herry, Helena M. F. Soares, Lavinia Schuler-Faccini +1
Although Zika virus (ZIKV) seems to be prominently neurotropic, there are some reports of involvement of other organs, particularly the heart. Of special concern are those children…
Unexpected sawtooth artifact in beat-to-beat pulse transit time measured from patient monitor data
Yu-Ting Lin, Yu-Lun Lo, Chen-Yun Lin +2
Object: It is increasingly popular to collect as much data as possible in the hospital setting from clinical monitors for research purposes. However, in this setup the data calibra…
