mRNA (LV-CGRP vs. LV-NC = 1.0 ± 0.1 vs. 2.1 ± 0.2) in the VN, further attenuating vestibular dysfunction after CM. Conclusions These data demonstrates the possibility of sensitization of vestibular nucleus neurons to impair vestibular function after CM, and anti-CGRP treatment to restore vestibular dysfunction in patients with CM.Background To i…[Read more]

The proposed and validated constitutive modeling approach for the bioresorbable polymer provides a useful tool for the design and evaluation of bioresorbable stents.Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignancy in women worldwide and leads, in more than 70% of patients with advanced disease, to skeleton colonization and formation of bone…[Read more]

A standardized definition and understanding of relapse not only minimize confusion, inconsistency, and social and self-stigma associated with the term but also helps provide relapse-sensitive care with accurate methods of assessment and evaluation. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Red-blood-cells (RBCs) undergo structural…[Read more]

Objective This study investigated the association of race/ethnicity, dietary intake, and physical activity with depression and potential other barriers associated with the use of mental health services among depressed people. Methods We used the nationally representative data, 2011-2016 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Depression…[Read more]

This convenient method did not require special biomaterial processing, has no impact on cell viability and functions, and required no changes to the conventional cell culture conditions. The photo-induced cell capturing is a great complement to existing tools by providing spatial resolution.Hemoglobin (Hb) is a key component of respiratory system…[Read more]

BACKGROUND Injuries of the acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) are frequent and often occur during sports. While arthroscopically-assisted stabilization of acute injuries of the ACJ is a well-established procedure, there is not much data available for arthroscopically-assisted stabilization of chronic injuries of the ACJ. OBJECTIVES This study assesses…[Read more]

To verify the effectiveness of the algorithm, two types of experiments are performed, including PSO clustering and hybrid clustering. Experiments show that the proposed approach significantly improves convergence speed and the clustering effect.

Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) is a technique used to isolate specific cell populations based on characteristics detected by flow cytometry. FACS has been broadly used in transcriptomic analyses of individual cell types during development or under different environmental conditions. Different protoplast extraction protocols are…[Read more]

The authors deploy an epistemic framework to represent culture and model the acquisition of cultural behavior. Yet, the framing inherits familiar problems with explaining the acquisition of norms. Such problems are conspicuous with regard to human societies where norms are ubiquitous. This creates a new difficulty for the authors in explaining…[Read more]
