Relation between motor unit / muscle activity and fine motor performance
Journal of Physical Fitness and Sports Medicine, 2014 Human movement is a consequence of joint torque or muscle force produced by muscle or muscle groups. Therefore, motor performance in human movements can be determined by the accuracy of joint torque or force produced by muscle/muscle groups.

Demonstration of a controllable three-dimensional Brownian motor in symmetric potentials
, 2005 We demonstrate a Brownian motor, based on cold atoms in optical lattices, where isotropic random fluctuations are rectified in order to induce controlled atomic motion in arbitrary directions. In contrast to earlier demonstrations of ratchet effects, our

Brain Areas Associated with Force Steadiness and Intensity During Isometric Ankle Dorsiflexion in Men and Women [PDF]
, 2014 Although maintenance of steady contractions is required for many daily tasks, there is little understanding of brain areas that modulate lower limb force accuracy.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most common pediatric ocular cancer, yet population‐based data on survival and risk factors remain limited. This study aimed to describe survival in a large national RB cohort and identify predictors of death and complications.

A “HOLTER” for Parkinson's disease: validation of the ability to detect on-off states using the REMPARK system [PDF]
, 2018 The treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) with levodopa is very effective. However, over time, motor complications (MCs) appear, restricting the patient from leading a normal life. One of the most disabling MCs is ON-OFF fluctuations.

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background and Aims Wilms tumour (WT) has excellent event‐free and overall survival (OS). However, small differences exist between countries participating in the same international study. This led us to examine variation in adherence to protocol recommendations as a potential contributing factor.

Transient combustion responses of homogeneous propellants to acoustic oscillations in axisymmetric rocket motors [PDF]
, 1997 A numerical analysis of unsteady motions in solid rocket motors has been conducted. The formulation considers a 2-D axisymmetric combustion chamber and a choke nozzle, and treats the complete conservation equations accounting for turbulence closure ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are rare, high‐flow, vascular anomalies that can occur either sporadically or as part of a genetic syndrome. AVMs can progress with serious morbidity and even mortality if left unchecked. Sirolimus is an mTOR inhibitor that is effective in low‐flow vascular malformations; however, its role in AVMs is unclear.
