Effects of oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation on the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base in minipigs

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Hypoglossal nerve or tongue protruding muscle stimulation is a current treatment option for obstructive sleep apnea. Thus, the present study analyzed 3D deformations of the volumetric enlarged and reduced tongue base upon oropharyngeal neuromuscular stimulation.

Thermal Deformation Correction for the FY-4A LMI

Remote Sensing
Affected by solar radiation in space, the FY-4A Lightning Mapping Imager (LMI) detection array exhibits daily periodic thermal expansion and contraction, leading to deviations in lightning positioning accuracy.

Pistols and pride flags: How gender matters for boys in Welsh relationships and sexuality education

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract School‐based relationships and sexuality education (RSE) is a site of intense discursive circulation around the concept of gender. In the 2020s, international RSE curricula are responding to increasing visibility and cognisance of gendered and sexual diversity among young people and attempting to address gender‐based inequities and violence ...

Metal nanostructure‐coupled label‐free localized surface plasmon resonance biosensors for rapid and sensitive disease diagnosis

BMEMat, EarlyView.
LSPR biosensing enables rapid, sensitive, and low‐sample‐volume detection of biomarkers, with broad applications in diagnosing cancer, infectious, and chronic diseases. Advances in nanostructure design, micro/nanofabrication, and microfluidic integration have expanded the potential of LSPR sensors in biomedical diagnostics.

Thunderstorm characteristics favouring downward and upward lightning to wind turbines [PDF]

, 2018
Meteorological conditions and thunderstorm characteristics related to lightning threats to wind turbines are discussed in this paper. Due to the rotating blades, wind turbines may be regarded peculiar tall objects, more susceptible to lightning strikes ...

Bond Formation: Shaken, Not Stirred

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Shaking of seismo‐molecules efficiently transforms kinetic energy into storable chemical potential, unlocking high‐utility Gibbs free energy. This innovative mechanism pioneers uncharted scientific frontiers, introducing fascinating phenomena like seismochemistry, seismochromism, and seismofluorescence that redefine the boundaries of molecular ...

Understanding lightning leaders [PDF]

, 2016
a lightning flash is defined by the initiation and multiple development of leaders. But lightning leaders are still poorly understood. Since most of my atmospheric electricity has been focused on lightning that means that it has been devoted to ...
