Functional Connectivity Linked to Cognitive Recovery After Minor Stroke
ABSTRACT Objective Patients with minor stroke exhibit slowed processing speed and generalized alterations in functional connectivity involving frontoparietal cortex (FPC). The pattern of connectivity evolves over time. In this study, we examine the relationship of functional connectivity patterns to cognitive performance, to determine ...

Aerodynamic Noise Separation of an EMU Trailer Bogie Area Using Train Operation Tests
The operation transfer path analysis (OTPA) technique was used to measure the vibration and noise transfer coefficient functions of wheel-rail noise and radiated noise from an electric multiple unit (EMU) train (high-speed train in China) trailer bogie ...

Robust control of systems with real parameter uncertainty and unmodelled dynamics [PDF]
During this research period we have made significant progress in the four proposed areas: (1) design of robust controllers via H infinity optimization; (2) design of robust controllers via mixed H2/H infinity optimization; (3) M-delta structure and ...

Lessons Learned From a Delayed‐Start Trial of Modafinil for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
ABSTRACT Objective Freezing of gait (FOG) in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD) is debilitating and has limited treatments. Modafinil modulates beta/gamma band activity in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), like PPN deep brain stimulation. We therefore tested the hypothesis that Modafinil would improve FOG in PwPD.

The correlation between age, blood pressure variability and estimated pulse wave velocity
Studies have separately compared the association of age with blood pressure variability (BPV) or pulse wave velocity (PWV). We aimed to establish the association between age and metrics of short-term BPV and PWV in the same sample. 508 under 60 years (

ABSTRACT Objective The Gold Coast criteria permit diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) even without upper motor neuron (UMN) signs. However, whether ALS patients with UMN signs (ALSwUMN) and those without (ALSwoUMN) share similar characteristics and prognoses remains unclear.

Comment on "Summing One-Loop Graphs at Multi-Particle Threshold"
The propagator of a virtual $\phi$-field with emission of $n$ on-mass-shell particles all being exactly at rest is calculated at the tree-level in $\lambda \phi^4$ theory by directly solving recursion equations for the sum of Feynman graphs.
