A set of modules that are used to simulate the autoregulation of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems under conditions of changing sleep-wake state and a variety of physiological and pharmacological interventions. It models the dynamic interactions that take place among the various component mechanisms, including those involved in the chemical control of breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure, as well as the effects of changes in the sleep-wake state and arousal from sleep. PNEUMA includes the autonomic control of the cardiovascular system, chemoreflex and state-related control of breath-to-breath ventilation, state-related and chemoreflex control of upper airway potency, as well as respiratory and circulatory mechanics. The model is capable of simulating the cardiorespiratory responses to sleep onset, arousal, continuous positive airway pressure, the administration of inhaled carbon dioxide and oxygen, Valsalva and Mueller maneuvers, and Cheyne-Stokes respiration during sleep. In PNEUMA 3.0, we have extended the existing integrative model of respiratory, cardiovascular, and sleepwake state control, to incorporate a sub-model of glucoseinsulinfatty acid regulation. The extended model is capable of simulating the metabolic control of glucoseinsulin dynamics and its interactions with the autonomic nervous system. The interactions between autonomic and metabolic control include the circadian regulation of epinephrine secretion, epinephrine regulation on dynamic fluctuations in glucose and free fatty acids in plasma, metabolic coupling among tissues and organs mediated by insulin and epinephrine, as well as the effect of insulin on peripheral vascular sympathetic activity. This extended model represents a starting point from which further in silico investigations into the interaction between the autonomic nervous system and the metabolic control system can proceed. Features in PNEUMA 3.0 * Incorporates metabolic component based on prior models of glucose-insulin regulation and free fatty acid (FFA) regulation. * Changes in sympathetic activity from the autonomic portion of PNEUMA produce changes in epinephrine output, which in turn affects the metabolic sub-model. * Inputs from the dietary intake of glucose and external interventions, such as insulin injections, have also been incorporated. * Also incorporated is autonomic feedback from the metabolic component to the rest of PNEUMA: changes in insulin level lead to changes in sympathetic tone. System Requirements: PNEUMA requires Matlab R2007b or higher with the accompanying version of Simulink to be installed on your computer.

A web-based gene list enrichment analysis tool that provides various types of visualization summaries of collective functions of gene lists. It includes new gene-set libraries, an alternative approach to rank enriched terms, and various interactive visualization approaches to display enrichment results using the JavaScript library, Data Driven Documents (D3). The software can also be embedded into any tool that performs gene list analysis. System-wide profiling of genes and proteins in mammalian cells produce lists of differentially expressed genes / proteins that need to be further analyzed for their collective functions in order to extract new knowledge. Once unbiased lists of genes or proteins are generated from such experiments, these lists are used as input for computing enrichment with existing lists created from prior knowledge organized into gene-set libraries.

EEG base is a system for storage and management of EEG/ERP resources - data, metadata, tools and materials related to EEG/ERP experiments. EEG base advances electrophysiology research by enabling access to public data, tools and results of research groups. The system essentially offers the following set of features (the set of accessible features depends on a specific user role): * User authentication * Storage, update, and download of EEG/ERP data and metadata * Storage, update and download of EEG/ERP experimental design (experimental scenarios) * Storage, update and download of data related to testing subjects * Fulltext search * Sharing of knowledge and working in groups The system is based on tree layer architecture (MVC pattern) consisting of persistent layer (relational database), application layer (object oriented code, object relational mapping from persistence layer) and presentation layer (JSP). The persistence layer uses Hibernate framework; Oracle 11g database server is used to ensure the processing of large data files. Application and presentation layers are designed and implemented using Spring technology. This framework supports MVC architecture, Dependency injection and Aspect Oriented Programming. There were no significant difficulties with integration of both frameworks, Hibernate and Spring MVC. Spring Security framework is used to ensure management of authentication and user roles. Since the system is thought to be finally open to the whole EEG/ERP community it is necessary to protect EEG/ERP data and metadata, and especially personal data of testing subjects stored in the database from an unauthorized access. Then a restricted user policy is applied and user roles are introduced. The complete overview of the system features and user roles (use case diagram) is available in (Pergler 2009). Concerning the architectural layers there is a question which layer is more feasible for mapping of its structure into ontology. Currently we have studied two possibilities: * Mapping from the persistence layer (relational database) * Mapping from the application layer (object oriented code) The mapping from the application layer to an ontology includes the precedent object relational mapping provided by Hibernate framework.
