Journal of Physiology, 2019 The female diaphragm fatigues at a slower rate compared to that of males, with blunted cardiovascular consequences (i.e. inspiratory muscle metaboreflex). It is unclear if these findings are a function of relative or absolute diaphragmatic work. We asked

Determination of an optimal standardized uptake value of fluorodeoxyglucose for positron emission tomography imaging to assess pathological volumes of cervical cancer: a prospective study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 PURPOSE: To determine the optimal standardized uptake value (SUV) of (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, at which the PET-defined gross tumor volume (GTVPET) best matches with the pathological volume ...

Signal transmission through the dark-adapted retina of the toad (Bufo marinus). Gain, convergence, and signal/noise. [PDF]
, 1990 Responses to light were recorded from rods, horizontal cells, and ganglion cells in dark-adapted toad eyecups. Sensitivity was defined as response amplitude per isomerization per rod for dim flashes covering the excitatory receptive field centers.

Hemispheric lateralization of motor thresholds in relation to stuttering.
PLoS ONE, 2013 Stuttering is a complex speech disorder. Previous studies indicate a tendency towards elevated motor threshold for the left hemisphere, as measured using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). This may reflect a monohemispheric motor system impairment.

Network Synchronization in a Noisy Environment with Time Delays: Fundamental Limits and Trade-Offs
, 2010 We study the effects of nonzero time delays in stochastic synchronization problems with linear couplings in an arbitrary network. Using the known exact threshold value from the theory of differential equations with delays, we provide the ...
