hat the duration of the tremor and family history are related with impaired integrity of white matter.

In our study, major white matter structure changes were found in the ET patients. The results suggest that possible neurodegeneration also affects white matter structures in ET patients and that the duration of the tremor and family history…[Read more]

Per and Polyfluoroalkyl substances are associated with markers of chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. Increased exposure leads to increase in serum concentration of these markers meaning these chemicals are associated with both chronic inflammation and oxidative stress.

Seizures and seizure-like electroencephalography (EEG) patterns,…[Read more]

Students believed both quizzes would count toward their final course grade. There was no statistically significant difference in grades between groups on either quiz (P > .05). However, based on survey responses, group B students felt the carpus made the laboratory more enjoyable and improved their comprehension of the material, whereas group A…[Read more]

6 averted CRC cases and 1.1 averted cancer deaths per 1000) than the CTC-based strategy, with an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of US$55 500 per quality-adjusted life-year gained. Our analysis was most sensitive to the sensitivity of CTC for detecting polyps 10 mm or larger and assumptions about disease progression.

In a sim…[Read more]

Perception occurred at gaze angles well beyond 2°, which means that fixation locations are insufficient for awareness monitoring.

Findings can be used in driver attention and awareness modelling, and design of gaze-based driver support systems.

This work will promote the development of ultrafast charging sodium-ion storage devices.Research suggests that thyroid cancer incidence rates are increasing, and environmental exposures have been postulated to be playing a role. To explore this possibility, we conducted a pilot study to investigate the thyroid disrupting bioactivity of chemical…[Read more]

as moderate quality, we recommend additional well-designed RCTs with larger sample sizes to validate these findings.

Around 15% of the Hong Kong population was found to suffer from overactive bladder (OAB), but the current available treatments, such as medication, behavioral therapy and physical therapy are unsatisfactory. Previous studies…[Read more]
