Genetic liability to inflammatory bowel disease is causally associated with increased risk of erectile dysfunction: Evidence from a bidirectional Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics
Background: Several observational cohort studies suggested a close correlation between inflammatory bowel disease and erectile dysfunction. Nevertheless, whether there was a causal effect between them remained debatable. In this study, we aimed to detect

A predictive coding account of OCD [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
This paper presents a predictive coding account of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). We extend the predictive coding model to include the concept of a 'formal narrative', or temporal sequence of cognitive states inferred from sense data. We propose that human cognition uses a hierarchy of narratives to predict changes in the natural and social ...

Assessment of corticospinal tract dysfunction and disease severity in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
The upper motor neuron dysfunction in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis was quantified using triple stimulation and more focal transcranial magnetic stimulation techniques that were developed to reduce recording variability. These measurements were combined with clinical and neurophysiological data to develop a novel random forest based supervised machine ...

Preclinical Evidence for the Benefits of Penile Rehabilitation Therapy following Nerve-Sparing Radical Prostatectomy

open access: yesAdvances in Urology, 2008
Erectile dysfunction following radical prostatectomy remains a frequent problem despite the development of nerve-sparing techniques. This erectile dysfunction is believed to be neurogenic, enhanced by hypoxia-induced structural changes which result in ...

Entrainment of Lymphatic Contraction to Oscillatory Flow [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
Lymphedema, a disfiguring condition characterized by the asymmetrical swelling of the limbs, is suspected to be caused by dysfunctions in the lymphatic system. Lymphangions, the spontaneously contracting units of the lymphatic system, are sensitive to luminal wall shear stress. In this study, the response of the lymphangions to dynamically varying wall
