TWITCH AMPLITUDE AFTER THREE REPETITIONS OF EXHAUSTING ISOMETRIC CONTRACTIONS AT DIFFERENT STARTING INTENSITIES DOES NOT CHANGE [PDF]

Sport Mont, 2010
The amplitude of a twitch presents one of the measures used to evaluate peripheral muscle fatigue. The aim of the study was to evaluate peripheral fatigue after the isometric muscle contractions of different starting intensities: at 60 %, 80 % and 100 ...

Contracting CAG/CTG repeats using the CRISPR-Cas9 nickase

Nature Communications, 2016
CAG/CTG repeat expansions cause over 13 neurological diseases that remain without a cure. Because longer tracts cause more severe phenotypes, contracting them may provide a therapeutic avenue.

Some Fixed Point Theorems in Complete Neutrosophic Metric Spaces for Neutrosophic ψ-Quasi Contractions [PDF]

Neutrosophic Sets and Systems
Fixed point theory is a fundamental tool in mathematics and numerous scientific fields. This study employs the concept of neutrosophic metric spaces as defined by Kiri¸sci and S¸im¸sek to introduce fixed point theorems related to neutrosophic ψ-quasi ...

Prognostic Value of Neurofilament Light Chain and Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein in ALD‐Related Myelopathy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background X‐linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X‐ALD) is a neurometabolic disorder caused by pathogenic variants in ABCD1, leading to slowly progressive spinal cord disease in nearly all affected men. Sensitive biomarkers to quantify disease severity and predict progression are needed for clinical care and trial design.

Existence of solutions for a n-dimensional systems of nonlocal boundary value problems

Electronic Journal of Differential Equations
We show the existence of nontrivial solutions of a system of nonlocal boundary value problems for a second order $n$-dimensional ordinary differential equation with a Caratheodory type response.

Predictive Ability of Plasma p‐tau217 for β‐Amyloid Status: A Prospective Multicenter Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Plasma tau phosphorylated at threonine 217 (p‐tau217) measured with fully automated platforms has shown high accuracy for Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis, but real‐world multicenter data remain limited. We aimed to validate the diagnostic performance of p‐tau217 for identifying AD pathology in a real‐world multicenter cohort ...

Unilateral Left-Hand Contractions Produce Widespread Depression of Cortical Activity after Their Execution.

PLoS ONE, 2015
The execution of unilateral hand contractions before performance has been reported to produce behavioral aftereffects in various tasks. These effects have been regularly attributed to an induced shift in activation asymmetry to the contralateral ...

Ofatumumab in Myelin Oligodendrocyte Glycoprotein Antibody–Associated Disease: A Comparison With Rituximab

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ofatumumab in patients with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody–associated disease (MOGAD), and compare it with rituximab. Methods We conducted a single–center, observational study including 22 MOGAD patients treated with ofatumumab and 21 treated with rituximab.

Multivalued self almost local contractions

Annals of the West University of Timisoara: Mathematics and Computer Science, 2019
We introduce a new class of contractive mappings: the almost local contractions, starting from the almost contractions presented by V. Berinde in [V. Berinde, Approximating fixed points of weak contractions using the Picard iteration Nonlinear Analysis ...

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.
