Early Childhood Behavioral Inhibition Predicts Cortical Thickness in Adulthood.

Journal of the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
OBJECTIVE: Behavioral inhibition (BI) during early childhood predicts risk for anxiety disorders and altered cognitive control in adolescence. Although BI has been linked to variation in brain function through adulthood, few studies have examined rel...

Robot-based assessment of motor and proprioceptive function identifies biomarkers for prediction of functional independence measures.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Neurological impairments following stroke impact the ability of individuals to perform daily activities, although the relative impact of individual impairments is not always clear. Recovery of sensorimotor function following stroke can va...

A Spiking Neural Network Methodology and System for Learning and Comparative Analysis of EEG Data From Healthy Versus Addiction Treated Versus Addiction Not Treated Subjects.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
UNLABELLED: This paper introduces a method utilizing spiking neural networks (SNN) for learning, classification, and comparative analysis of brain data. As a case study, the method was applied to electroencephalography (EEG) data collected during a G...

Abnormal calcium, 25(OH)vitamin D, and parathyroid hormone after biliopancreatic diversion; correction through elongation of the common tract and reduction of the gastric pouch.

Surgery for obesity and related diseases : official journal of the American Society for Bariatric Surgery
BACKGROUND: Biliopancreatic diversion (BPD) is a surgical technique burdened, in some instances, by clinical evidence of malabsorption and intractable diarrhoea.

Quantifying saphenous recirculation in patients with primary lower extremity venous reflux.

Journal of vascular surgery. Venous and lymphatic disorders
BACKGROUND: The great saphenous vein (GSV) in patients with superficial venous insufficiency might act as a beneficial conduit for antegrade venous drainage and also as a harmful conduit for promotion of reflux and/or recirculation and subsequent ski...

Neoadjuvant endocrine treatment in early breast cancer: An overlooked alternative?

European journal of surgical oncology : the journal of the European Society of Surgical Oncology and the British Association of Surgical Oncology
During the last decade neoadjuvant endocrine therapy (NET) has moved from being reserved for elderly and frail non-chemotherapy candidates to a primary systemic modality in selected patients with hormone sensitive breast cancer. Neoadjuvant hormonal ...

Can shoulder joint reaction forces be estimated by neural networks?

Journal of biomechanics
To facilitate the development of future shoulder endoprostheses, a long term load profile of the shoulder joint is desired. A musculoskeletal model using 3D kinematics and external forces as input can estimate the mechanical load on the glenohumeral ...

Improved Neural Signal Classification in a Rapid Serial Visual Presentation Task Using Active Learning.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
The application space for brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies is rapidly expanding with improvements in technology. However, most real-time BCIs require extensive individualized calibration prior to use, and systems often have to be recalibra...

A prospective, randomized, blinded-endpoint, controlled study - continuous epidural infusion versus programmed intermittent epidural bolus in labor analgesia.

Brazilian journal of anesthesiology (Elsevier)
BACKGROUND: There is evidence that administration of a programmed intermittent epidural bolus (PIEB) compared to continuous epidural infusion (CEI) leads to greater analgesia efficacy and maternal satisfaction with decreased anesthetic interventions.
