Spasmodic Dysphonia

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spasmodic dysphonia is a laryngeal dystonia that can present as adductor, abductor, or mixed types, with or without tremor. The etiology is not understood fully. Comprehensive evaluation is required to establish the diagnosis. Treatments include voice therapy, medications, botulinum toxin injection, laryngeal surgery, deep brain stimulation ...

Spraying drones: efficacy of integrating an avian repellent with drone hazing to elicit blackbird flock dispersal and abandonment of sunflower fields

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Multiple management strategies exist to combat bird damage to agriculture. We explored combining two tools, drones as frightening devices and an avian repellent, to assess effectiveness of an integrated method to deter large flocks on complex landscapes. We evaluated the ability of a spraying drone (DJI Agras MG‐1P) deploying Avian Control (i.e. active

Point‐PC: Point cloud completion guided by prior knowledge via causal inference

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The goal of point cloud completion is to reconstruct raw scanned point clouds acquired from incomplete observations due to occlusion and restricted viewpoints. Numerous methods use a partial‐to‐complete framework, directly predicting missing components via global characteristics extracted from incomplete inputs.

Refuting causal relations for synchronized pathogen dynamics

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Identifying causal relations is a critical challenge in the study of ecological systems, particularly for studying the spread of pathogens in host populations. Whether dealing with measles in humans, foot and mouth disease in livestock, or white‐nose syndrome in bats—understanding causal relations is essential for understanding the underlying ...

Effects of Anthropogenic Introduction of Substrates on Egg Camouflage and Nesting Success in Ground‐Nesting Birds

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
We show that the introduction of artificial substrates, in this case, dredged materials to act as nesting substrate for ground‐nesting birds, reduced the effectiveness of egg camouflage for Kentish plovers compared to natural substrates. However, nesting success was not impacted, likely because the community of nest predators was diverse and used a ...

Singapore upon the Korea Strait? Cyberlibertarian Desires and Anxious Regulation in Busan's Blockchain Regulation Free Zone

open access: yesAntipode, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the intersection of Asia's blockchain industry and special economic zones (SEZs). SEZs have been promoted to localise blockchain technology by disparate actors from cyberlibertarian figures to Asian blockchain firms, national policymakers, and local politicians.

Performance of radiomics analysis in ultrasound imaging for differentiating benign from malignant adnexal masses: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
Currently, the IOTA‐ADNEX model and the O‐RADS are the most reliable methods for calculating the risk of malignancy in adnexal masses. However, some skill is required to accurately recognize the ultrasound variables included in these methods. In recent years, several authors have demonstrated that radiomic analysis, which does not rely on expert ...
