Motor Evoked Potentials Improve Targeting in Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives One of the main challenges posed by the surgical deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedure is the successful targeting of the structures of interest and avoidance of side effects, especially in asleep surgery. Here, intraoperative motor evoked potentials (MEPs) might serve as tool to identify the pyramidal tract.

An observation‐driven state‐space model for claims size modelling

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract State‐space models are popular in econometrics. Recently, these models have gained some popularity in the actuarial literature. The best known state‐space models are of the Kalman‐filter type. These are called parameter‐driven because the observations do not impact the state‐space dynamics.

Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields: A Novel Attractive Therapeutic Opportunity for Neuroprotection After Acute Cerebral Ischemia

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Acute cerebral ischemia is characterized by several pathological processes evolving during time, which contribute to the final tissue damage. Secondary processes, such as prolonged inflammatory response, impaired mitochondrial function and oxidative stress, are responsible for the progression of brain injury to the peri‐infarct area,

Psychological and immunological associations with movement-evoked low back pain among older adults

open access: yesPAIN Reports
. Introduction:. Low back pain (LBP) is a leading global factor in disability among older adults. Movement-evoked pain (MEP) is potentially an important mediator in the disability pathway but is predominantly tested in the laboratory. Objectives:.

What Could Have Been: Predicted and Actual Exclusion by Potential Romantic Partners and Platonic Friends

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Romantic partners are instrumental to more goals than friends, and therefore, people have more to lose when denied a romantic relationship than a friendship. We explored people's forecasted and experienced rejection by a potential romantic partner or friend.

Standardized Protocol for Isolation and Cryopreservation of Cultivable Endophytes From Fresh and Dried Citrus aurantium Peels

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
A protocol for converting Citrus aurantium peel—from both fresh fruit and dried Zhike—into a curated endophytic microbial library through standardized surface sterilization, tissue homogenization, and multi‐medium culturing, followed by 16S/ITS‐based identification and −80°C cryopreservation, enabling reproducible exploration of citrus peel microbiota ...

Navigated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation: A Biologically Based Assay of Lower Extremity Impairment and Gait Velocity

open access: yesNeural Plasticity, 2017
Objectives. (a) To determine associations among motor evoked potential (MEP) amplitude, MEP latency, lower extremity (LE) impairment, and gait velocity and (b) determine the association between the presence of a detectable MEP signal with LE impairment ...

Medicare Part D and Hospital Admissions due to Antimicrobial Resistance

open access: yesHealth Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has been increasing rapidly in the United States despite government efforts to contain its spread. Both under‐utilization and overuse of prescribed antimicrobials contribute to rising resistance. The introduction of Medicare Part D in 2006 expanded prescription drug coverage for the elderly, including coverage ...

A Student‐Led Tele‐Expiratory Muscle Strength Training (EMST) Program for Head and Neck Cancer (HNC) Survivors—A Pilot Implementation Study

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) is a non‐invasive, evidence‐based treatment that is used to improve swallowing in head and neck cancer (HNC) survivors. This prospective, pilot implementation study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and potential clinical effectiveness of a novel student‐led tele‐EMST program for ...
