MiRNAs as Potential Prognostic Biomarkers for Metastasis in Thin and Thick Primary Cutaneous Melanomas. [PDF]
Background/Aim: The identification of novel prognostic biomarkers for melanoma metastasis is essential to improve patient outcomes. To this aim, we characterized miRNA expression profiles in relation to metastasis in melanoma and correlated miRNAs ...

Melanocytes are selectively vulnerable to UVA-mediated bystander oxidative signaling. [PDF]
Long-wave UVA is the major component of terrestrial UV radiation and is also the predominant constituent of indoor sunlamps, both of which have been shown to increase cutaneous melanoma risk.

Single Channel Cutaneous Electrogastrography on Local White Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and Its Electrogastrogram Classification Algorithm [PDF]
It has been a common practice to place electrodes based on external landmarks, rather than locating the appropriate organ first by imaging technuiqes such as CT scan, ultrasound, etc. Therefore, aside from abiding the cutaneous EGG (electrogastrography) electrodes placement rule, identification of its waveform should be performed to ease the validation

Studying the cutaneous microcirculatory response during upper-limb exercise in healthy, older, sedentary people [PDF]
This study investigated changes incurred in cutaneous skin blood flux (SKBF) in the superficial veins of the lower limb by upper limb exercise training in the form of arm-cranking in 14 healthy participants over the age of 50 years. Changes in cutaneous

Discrimination Among Multiple Cutaneous and Proprioceptive Hand Percepts Evoked by Nerve Stimulation with Utah Slanted Electrode Arrays in Human Amputees [PDF]
Objective: This paper aims to demonstrate functional discriminability among restored hand sensations with different locations, qualities, and intensities that are evoked by microelectrode stimulation of residual afferent fibers in human amputees. Methods: We implanted a Utah Slanted Electrode Array (USEA) in the median and ulnar residual arm nerves of ...
