The effect of stretching on nerve excitability [PDF]
Nerves are frequently stretched during movement. We investigate here the effect of stretch on nerve excitability within the framework of the soliton theory. This thermodynamic theory for nerve pulse propagation relies on the presence of a melting transition in the nerve membrane.

Ecotoxicity and Sustainability of Emerging Pb‐Based Photovoltaics
This review provides a unique vision of the ecotoxicity and sustainability of emerging Pb halide perovskite solar cells and Pb chalcogenide quantum dot solar cells. The critical role of Pb, the causes of Pb leakage, the hazardous impact, Pb leakage reduction strategies, and Pb recycling strategies of end‐of‐life solar cells are systematically analyzed.

Significance of Radiological Variables Studied on Orthopantamogram to Predict Post-Operative Inferior Alveolar Nerve Paresthesia after Third Molar Extraction [PDF]
Context: Removal of impacted third molar is a procedure that is often associated with post-operative complications. The rate of complications is somewhat high because of its proximity to the vital structures. Inferior alveolar nerve paresthesia is one

A comparative study of eight human auditory models of monaural processing [PDF]
A number of auditory models have been developed using diverging approaches, either physiological or perceptual, but they share comparable stages of signal processing, as they are inspired by the same constitutive parts of the auditory system. We compare eight monaural models that are openly accessible in the Auditory Modelling Toolbox.

Granulomatosis with polyangiitis: Common and uncommon presentations
Summary Granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) is a multisystemic autoimmune small vessel vasculitis predominantly affecting the respiratory and renal systems. Other systems such as the central nervous system, orbital, cardiac and gastrointestinal systems may also be involved to a lesser degree.

Resection of oral and maxillofacial tumors is often accompanied by the inferior alveolar nerve neurectomy, resulting in abnormal sensation in lower lip. It is generally believed that spontaneous sensory recovery in this nerve injury is difficult. However,

Sparse Codes for Speech Predict Spectrotemporal Receptive Fields in the Inferior Colliculus [PDF]
We have developed a sparse mathematical representation of speech that minimizes the number of active model neurons needed to represent typical speech sounds. The model learns several well-known acoustic features of speech such as harmonic stacks, formants, onsets and terminations, but we also find more exotic structures in the spectrogram ...

Abstract Purpose The aim of the present study was to evaluate the 5‐year results in terms of marginal bone level (MBL) around implants supporting fixed full‐arch metal‐ceramic restorations in a series of cases of patients who had lost their teeth in that dental arch because of severe periodontal disease.
