Abstract:

A method and an apparatus for detecting cardiac arrhythmia and a recording medium using the method are provided. In the method, physiological signals of a human comprising a sequence of heart pulses are acquired, and an average of heartbeat intervals between pairs of consecutive heart pulses in the sequence of heart pulses is calculated. Each pair of consecutive heartbeat intervals is examined to identify premature ventricular contraction (PVC) candidates or atrial premature contraction (APC) candidates based on whether a difference between the pair of consecutive heartbeat intervals is larger than a product of a factor and the average of heartbeat intervals and whether an average of the pair of consecutive heartbeat intervals is within a predetermined range.

Abstract:

A server system having one or more processors and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors receives from a client device a request, the request comprising a request for message content from one or more email messages in a conversation thread. The server system responds to the request by identifying the message content, identifying candidate authors, and obtaining qualifying posts by the candidate authors, the qualifying posts satisfying predefined criteria. The server system furthermore selects a subset of the qualifying posts, and prepares the selected subset of the qualifying posts and the message content for concurrent display at the client device.
