Abstract Background Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common focal mononeuropathy which presents with pain in the wrist and hand, paresthesia, loss of sensation in the distribution of the median nerve, and in more severe cases, weakness and atrophy of the thenar muscles.Meanwhile, carpal tunnel syndrome can present as an initial manifestation of u
Summary: This protocol combines a protective cutting method to prepare various brain slices from adult mice and real-time monitoring of circadian oscillations to measure circadian rhythmicity in various brain slices.This protocol can be applied Scopes to studies of how brain damages affect local circadian clocks and subsequent circadian variations
Aryl polyene (APE) are bacterial pigments which show great biotechnological potential because of their biological activities.In this study, the presence of gene clusters associated with APE synthesis was investigated in the genome of Chryseobacterium sp.kr6 and Lysobacter sp.A03.The pigments extracted from strains kr6 and A03 were further character
Abstract The autonomic nervous system maintains homeostasis, with the vestibulosympathetic reflex playing a key role in regulating blood pressure during postural changes.Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV), a common vestibular disorder, has been linked to autonomic dysfunction, but the impact of vestibular-autonomic interactions on BPPV rec
Abstract Crystal phase quantum dots are formed by vertically stacking zinc-blende and wurtzite phases during nanowire growth.In this work, we show, using an atomistic many-body approach, Buffet and Hutch that crystal field splitting in the wurtzite phase, as well as spontaneous polarization originating from the phase interfaces, will strongly affec
