Directional and fluctuating asymmetry in finger and a-b ridge counts in psychosis: a case-control study

BMC Psychiatry, 2003
Background Several studies have reported alterations in finger and a-b ridge counts, and their derived measures of asymmetry, in schizophrenia compared to controls.

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Long-term patterns of forearm asymmetry in females of three syntopic bat species and its effects on individual fitness

Scientific Reports
Fluctuating asymmetry, the non-directional deviation from bilateral symmetry resulting from developmental instability, can indicate early-life environmental stress.

Portable Microcontroller-Based Colorimeter For Determining Plant Development Stability

Сельскохозяйственные машины и технологии, 2022
It was shown that the magnitude of fluctuating asymmetry can be used to assess the plant development stability. The shortcomings of the plant physiological state assessment were pointed out, both the visual one and that using the previously created ...

Magnetic ground state and spin fluctuations in MnGe chiral magnet as studied by Muon Spin Rotation [PDF]

, 2016
We have studied by muon spin resonance ({\mu}SR) the helical ground state and fluctuating chiral phase recently observed in the MnGe chiral magnet. At low temperature, the muon polarization shows double period oscillations at short time scales.

Polarization‐resolved femtosecond Vis/IR spectroscopy tailored for resolving weak signals in biological samples using minimal sample volume

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Unique biological samples, such as site‐specific mutant proteins, are available only in limited quantities. Here, we present a polarization‐resolved transient infrared spectroscopy setup with referencing to improve signal‐to‐noise tailored towards tracing small signals. We provide an overview of characterizing the excitation conditions for polarization‐

Fluctuating Asymmetry and personality

Personality and Individual Differences, 2011
The relationship between Fluctuating Asymmetry (FA) and personality can cast light on the fitness consequences and selective benefits underlying personality. However few studies have investigated the topic and these have rendered inconsistent findings.
