Distance and Metallicity of HVCS [PDF]
Table 1 summarizes results of programs to determine distances and metallicities of high-velocity clouds (HVCs, see Wakker 1991, IAU Symp 144, 27 for a general review). Reliable absorption is reported for one stellar probe (BD+38 2182), giving a distance D<5kpc for complex M. Other results are controversial (BT Dra), uncertain(HD 135485) or atypical (

Characterization of synaptically connected nuclei in a potential sensorimotor feedback pathway in the zebra finch song system. [PDF]
Birdsong is a learned behavior that is controlled by a group of identified nuclei, known collectively as the song system. The cortical nucleus HVC (used as a proper name) is a focal point of many investigations as it is necessary for song production ...

Whilst the majority of the literature suggests that balloon kyphoplasty (BKP) can relieve pain associated with vertebral compression fractures (VCFs), evidence of high-viscosity cement (HVC) vertebroplasty (VP) or low viscosity cement (LVC) BKP for the ...

Sexual differences in cell proliferation in the ventricular zone, cell migration and differentiation in the HVC of juvenile Bengalese finch. [PDF]
Song control nuclei have distinct sexual differences and thus are an ideal model to address how brain areas are sexually differentiated. Through a combination of histological analysis and electrical lesions, we first identified the ventricle site for HVC

Proximal tubular dysfunction associated with tenofovir in an HVC-HIV co-infected patient undergoing HVC therapy [PDF]
Sir, Tenofovir is an adenosine analogue, and exposure to ribavirin (RBV) could increase the intracellular phosphorylated metabolities of tenofovir. Nucleoside analogues essentially have mitochondrial toxicity. Nephrotoxicity of these nucleoside analogues in combination with HVC therapy is a rare complication [1].

Activity in a premotor cortical nucleus of zebra finches is locally organized and exhibits auditory selectivity in neurons but not in glia. [PDF]
Motor functions are often guided by sensory experience, most convincingly illustrated by complex learned behaviors. Key to sensory guidance in motor areas may be the structural and functional organization of sensory inputs and their evoked responses.

Patient choice for high‐volume center radiation impacts head and neck cancer outcome
Background Studies suggest treatment outcomes may vary between high (HVC)‐ and low‐volume centers (LVC). Radiation therapy (RT) for head and neck cancer (HNC) requires weeks of treatment, the inconvenience of which may influence a patient's choice for ...

Acetylcholine acts on songbird premotor circuitry to invigorate vocal output
Acetylcholine is well-understood to enhance cortical sensory responses and perceptual sensitivity in aroused or attentive states. Yet little is known about cholinergic influences on motor cortical regions.
