The demand for mobile video streams is constantly increasing. With this demand comes a need for mobile devices to receive more videos at ever increasing quality. However, due to the large size of vide…
The emergence of human pathogens with pandemic potential motivates rapid vaccine development. We explore the role of vaccines in control and eradication of a novel emerging pathogen. We hypothetically…
COVID-19 may drive sustained research in robotics to address risks of infectious diseases.…
Purpose This study compared auditory-perceptual measures of presence/absence and severity of vocal tremor to acoustic markers of vocal tremor. The validity (both concurrent and diagnostic) of various …
PURPOSE: The enlargement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) has been proven to be related with raised intracranial pressure (ICP). No prospective study has been focused on utilizing retrobulbar ult…
OBJECTIVES: to determine if the number of basis images and spatial distribution of the projection array used for TACT slice generation influence observer performance in caries detection.METHODS: In th…
This article explores how organisational politics, power and conflict have a positive role to play for nurses in NHS organisational change and improvement, rather than always leading to disagreement a…
PURPOSE: To determine whether measurement of left ventricular (LV) and left atrial (LA) diameters on nongated computed tomography angiography (CTA) can detect left atrial and left ventricular enlargem…
Electrostatic phenomena are known to enhance both wind- and insect-mediated pollination, but have not yet been described for nectar-feeding vertebrates. Here we demonstrate that wild Anna's Hummingbir…
The T-tubule (TT) system forms the structural basis for excitation-contraction coupling in heart and muscle cells. The morphogenesis of the TT system is a key step in the maturation of heart cells bec…
A database of plastinated materials was set up and distributed with a CD-ROM on the Internet. A total of 197 specimens, prepared at the Medical Museum of the University of Tokyo between 1991 and 1995,…
The aim of the present study was to assess intraoral images and two cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) systems for detection of artificial buccal recurrent caries under restorations. Class V cavitie…
We have developed a polysomnographic database on CD-ROM. The data were obtained from 16 subjects with sleep apnea syndrome. The physiological signals include electroencephalogram, electromyogram, elec…
OBJECTIVE Laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) has been increasingly used to treat deep-seated tumors. Despite its being minimally invasive, there is a risk of LITT damaging adjacent critical str…
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a nomogram model combing radiomics features and clinical characteristics to preoperatively differentiate grade 1 and grade 2/3 tumors in p…
Objective: The periaqueductal gray matter (PAG), a small midbrain structure, presents dysfunction in migraine. However, the precise neurological mechanism is still not well understood. Herein, the aim…
Older adults with cognitive impairment often have difficulties in remembering the proper sequence of activities of daily living (ADLs) or how to use the tools necessary to perform ADLs. They, therefor…
BACKGROUND: The University of Wisconsin (UW) solution has been demonstrated to enhance pulmonary allograft preservation. Endothelial nitric oxide (NO) production has been shown to be significantly imp…
BACKGROUND: Our expectations of an object's heaviness not only drive our fingertip forces, but also our perception of heaviness. This effect is highlighted by the classic size-weight illusion (SWI), w…
The article discusses a number of court cases on women's same-sex fornication in the Finnish countryside in the 1950s. Based on a close reading of the minutes of the police investigations and the cour…
