Hippo Pathway and Skeletal Muscle Mass Regulation in Mammals: A Controversial Relationship.

abstract：:Background: It is known that the respiration-modulated photoplethysmographic (PPG) signals could be used to derive respiratory frequency (RF) and that PPG signals could be measured from different body sites. However, the accuracy of RF derived from PPG signals of different body sites has not been comprehensively inves...
