Boundary‐Dependent Sleep–Wake Dysregulation in Idiopathic Hypersomnia

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Idiopathic hypersomnia (IH) presents with excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) despite apparently preserved nocturnal sleep, challenging traditional models of hypersomnolence based on sleep loss or fragmentation. We aimed to test the hypothesis that EDS in IH reflects excessive stabilization of the sleep state, consistent with ...

Amplifying concerns: An exploration of community noise levels in rural communities impacted by wood pellet production

open access: yesEnvironmental Challenges
Wood pellets are increasingly promoted as a renewable and sustainable energy source, driving the global wood pellet market to a projected value of $16 billion by 2026. However, the rapid expansion of this industry disproportionately affects predominantly

microRNA‐7‐5p and α‐Synuclein SAA Predict Parkinson's Disease Phenoconversion

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Corroborate blood neuron‐derived extracellular vesicle (NDEV) alpha‐synuclein (αSyn), the CSF αSyn seed amplification assay (αSyn‐SAA), and blood microRNA‐7‐5p (miR‐7‐5p) as markers for Parkinson's disease (PD) phenoconversion and determine if combining these markers would help select subjects who would be more likely to phenoconvert.

Theoretically consistent temporal ordering specification in spatial hedonic pricing models applied to the valuation of aircraft noise [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Incorporating spatial econometric tools in Hedonic Pricing (HP) models for environmental valuation has become the standard approach in the literature. The effect of house prices on other house prices is taken into account and usually measured by distance

Evaluation of the effect of wheel tread condition on the dynamic response of PC sleepers

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu
Prestressed concrete sleepers (PC sleepers) are an important component of railway tracks. The dynamic response of PC sleepers to passing trains is influenced by various factors relating to the vehicles and tracks. However, few studies have quantitatively

Hegselmann–Krause model with environmental noise

open access: yesTransactions of the American Mathematical Society
We study a continuous-time version of the Hegselmann–Krause model describing the opinion dynamics of interacting agents subject to random perturbations. Mathematically speaking, the opinion of agents is modelled by an interacting particle system with a non-Lipschitz continuous interaction force, perturbed by idiosyncratic and environmental noises ...

Four‐Year Cognitive Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis: Associations With Lesion Myelin Integrity

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Cognitive impairment is prevalent in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) but whether lesion myelin integrity influences future cognitive outcomes remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between baseline lesion myelin water fraction (MWF) and cognitive performance 4 years later.
