Neither ultrasound nor MRI typically shows superficial endometriosis, which can cause as much pain as (and sometimes more than) deeper endometriosis. "Negative imaging" (in which no endometriosis is found) does not mean you do not have endometriosis and shouldn't justify forgoing surgery.13 The ...
MRI image of the striatum.Credit: Lindsay Hanford, Geoff B Hall/Wikimedia Commons EPFL scientists have identified specific neurons in the striatum that contribute to driving motivated behaviors like movement. The work may help in designing new ways of treating disorders like Parkinson's disease in ...
The Active THUMS contains multiple 3D skeletal muscle reconstructed from MRI data that can change their shape due to contractible, interwoven 1D Hill-type muscle ele- ments that share nodes with the 3D solid muscle elements. In consequence, this also leads to a change in muscle stiffness. This...
Additional research since our 2012 article has confirmed that the positive influences of signing from birth are pervasive and have widespread effects on brain development. In fact, deaf children who are early signers do not exhibit the cognitive harms discussed thus far with respect to memory organiz...
It is also worth noting that the combination of PIC levels and brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measures is more predictive of the transition from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to AD thanAPOEgenotype status alone [77,78]. The weight of data indicates that concentrations of TNF-α in ...
I was going to try and copy Gregg from last week but my dog can't talk yet to do the introduction. Darn obedience classes. Obie Fernandez from Hashrocket co-hosts this week and we have a blast. I hope you all enjoy the show and am sorry for the delay. But it's a good one, I...
a medium-realistic image, consumers exhibited the strongest algorithmic aversion, the lowest purchase intention, and the most significant inhibition in self-efficacy. This work provides guidance for designing images of virtual influencers for marketing-related activities on livestreaming e-commerce ...
