The prone position has been used to provide posterior surgical access in a wide variety of operations since the 1930s. Common surgical procedures involving the prone position include neurosurgery (e.g., posterior fossa and posterior spine), urological procedures (e.g., nephrostomy, litholapaxy), ...
Our study found that changes in these features not only de- termined whether multiple proteins were translated from a single mRNA but also affected the relative yield of the total protein. NMD is an important pathway that detects and elimi- nates aberrant mRNAs. The 3′-most intron within a...
CMR is a highly reliable modality for depiction of the presence and extent of acquired vascular disease in virtually all of the large and medium sized arteries in the body (Table2). A variety of techniques exist to depict both the vascular lumen as well as the vessel wall. The current sta...
In the absence of reli- able proprioceptive feedback (e.g., post-stroke), one might be inclined to substitute visual feedback. The model suggests that relying solely on hand position feedback relative to a fixated target with a visual delay of ~120 ms [8] cannot yield acceptable capture-...
In different aircraft guidance tasks, evaluation of the relative position between the aircraft and the destination is different. In this paper, a general position reward function is used without considering the requirements of specific tasks for a relative position; it is given by: 𝑃(𝑆𝑡)=...
The predicted position is in a vector space, and consequently, its distance error relative to the current position may not be proportional to its angular error. Figure 4 illustrates the relationship between distance and angular errors. Furthermore, the distance and angular errors can reflect the ...
