Approximately two thirds of stroke survivors maintain upper limb (UL) impairments and few among them attain complete UL recovery 6 months after stroke. Technological progress and gamification of interventions aim for better outcomes and constitute opportunities in self- and tele-rehabilitation.

Our objective was to assess the efficacy of…[Read more]

Moreover, the comparative analysis of the four cp sequences revealed four hotspot genes (atpF, rpoC2, rps19, and ycf1), these variable regions could be used as molecular makers for the species authentication as well as resources for inferring phylogenetic relationships of the species. All the relationships in the phylogenetic tree are with high…[Read more]

Thus, both treatment regimens are similarly effective. Their selection should therefore be based on the potential side effects.

In our real-world data analysis, patients treated with platin/paclitaxel/bevacizumab had better overall response rate (ORR), but not PFS or OS. Thus, both treatment regimens are similarly effective. Their selection…[Read more]

Introduction Many neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders produce Theory of Mind impairment. We aimed to implement a Brazilian Portuguese version of the Faux Pas Recognition Test (FPRT) and evaluate its psychometric properties.Methods We first completed an English-Brazilian Portuguese translation and adaptation to obtain an FPRT Brazilian…[Read more]

We believe our semi-supervised learning method has a great potential for use for other MRI sequences and will encourage others to perform brain tissue segmentation using MRI modalities other than T1w.Oxidative stress, particularly reactive oxygen species (ROS), are important for innate immunity against pathogens. ROS directly attack pathogens,…[Read more]

The result of K-nearest neighbour analysis showed classification accuracy as high as 98%. The evaluation of the LR presented a significant result (EER=0, RMEP=0, RMED=0.07). This method helps to find a specific inkjet from even a few letters in the printed document for tactical purposes.Silicone embolism syndrome (SES) is a well known complication…[Read more]

Significant associations were not observed for other outcomes.The colonization and maturation of gut microbiota (GM) is a delicate and precise process, which continues to influence not only infancy and childhood but also adulthood health by affecting immunity. However, many perinatal factors, including gestational age, delivery mode, antibiotic…[Read more]

The second six methane molecules are adsorbed on the remaining L sites, where the C-Hπ interaction becomes important, leading to the synergistic effect together with the C-HO interaction to enhance the adsorption energy of the methane molecule. Finally, it can adsorb up to sixteen CH4 molecules in a single pore of a unit cell at Ni-MOF-74.…[Read more]

Two types of backing layer materials were tested, one with air and another made of epoxy resin, on the transducers called T1 and T2, respectively. The pulse echoes measured with T1 had 2.6 dB higher amplitude than those measured with T2, and the bandwidths were 54% and 50% @ -6 dB, respectively, exciting the element with a single rectangular…[Read more]

Dental students learned the scope of practice of PNPs and ideated ways the two professions overlap and complement each other. While some may find it challenging to envision dentistry regularly collaborating with other healthcare providers, clinical interprofessional education can be one way to break down these barriers.Growing evidence supports…[Read more]

In one MS-RO+ LCH patient, CD34+c-Kit+Flt3+ cell frequency in blood and its BRAF-mutated offspring reported response to chemotherapy. CD34+c-Kit+Flt3+ progenitors from blood of both high- and low-risk LCH patients gave rise to DCs and LC-like cells in vitro, but the driver mutation was not easily detectable, likely due to low frequency of mutated…[Read more]
