Performance of a glider‐mounted multifrequency echosounder for measuring the vertical distribution and abundance of large pelagic copepods

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract The difficulty of sampling zooplankton communities in situ has driven advancements in autonomous, remote sensing technology. The goal of this paper was to perform a gear comparison study testing the performance of one such piece of technology—a glider‐mounted four‐frequency echosounder—against traditional shipboard methods of measuring ...

The Hidden Burden of Hemifacial Spasm: A Systematic Review of Non‐Motor Symptoms

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is a chronic neurological disorder characterized by involuntary contractions of facial muscles. Traditionally regarded as a motor condition, HFS encompasses a spectrum of non‐motor symptoms that are often overlooked but significantly affect patients’ quality of life.

Assessment of the Entropy of Spatial and Time Distributions of Rooms Daylighting: a Possible Tool for a Sustainable Design

Journal of Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems, 2015
The indoor visual comfort of subjects faced with indoor ambient lighting varies with the position of the subject and is not constant over time. Average performance indexes, such as the mean value of Daylight Factor and Daylight Autonomy, are commonly ...

Hypotensive Episodes Precede Cognitive Fluctuations in Parkinson's Disease Dementia

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cognitive fluctuations (CFs) are a disabling feature in Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) and contribute to caregiver burden. The relationship between CFs and neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH), a common autonomic complication in PDD, has not been adequately examined.

Orofacial Drinking Tremor: A Case Series and Literature Review

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Task‐specific orofacial tremor is a rare condition in which rhythmic oscillations of orofacial muscles occur during specific actions. Drinking tremor represents a recurrent pattern in isolated reports, although its phenomenology and underlying mechanisms remain incompletely defined.
