Defining Quality of Life: The Perspective of People Living with Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Little is known about how people with Parkinson's conceptualize “quality of life.” Objective To describe the meaning of “quality of life” from the perspective of people with Parkinson's. Methods Participants (N = 42) were asked “What does the term ‘quality of life’ mean to you?” Definitions were analyzed using inductive qualitative ...

In Vivo Mapping of Catecholaminergic Loss and Iron Deposition in Huntington's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The pathophysiology of Huntington's disease (HD) remains obscure. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can reveal in vivo molecular changes related to disease pathology. Objectives To investigate catecholaminergic neuronal integrity and subcortical brain iron accumulation in HD employing neuromelanin‐sensitive MRI, and quantitative ...

Response of specific leaf area to light: comparative study of a large species set

Oikos, EarlyView.
Specific leaf area (SLA) is a commonly used proxy for the leaf economy spectrum in plants, separating species with low‐cost leaves (in terms of carbon) with short lifespan and hence fast turnover from species with high‐cost and long‐lived leaves. While SLA is used mainly for interspecific comparisons, it also varies within species both ontogenetically ...

Digitization connects scattered specimens and enables new historical research: Plants from the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition (1881–1884)

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Widespread museum digitization initiatives have made the world's herbaria more accessible than ever, launching a renaissance of specimen use. We highlight the value of digitization to bolster both scientific and historical research using the specimens from the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition (1881–1884) to the Canadian arctic, remembered for its tragedy ...

Do rats (Rattus norvegicus) perceive octave equivalence, a critical human cross-cultural aspect of pitch perception?

Royal Society Open Science
Octave equivalence describes the perception that two notes separated by a doubling in frequency have a similar quality. In humans, octave equivalence is important to both music and language learning and is found cross-culturally.

Sonified Signals From a Compact FT‐ICR Instrument: A Feasibility Study. I—Data Mapping to an Equal‐Tempered Chromatic Scale

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Ions trapped within a Penning cell (ICR) travel periodic orbits whose frequencies are dependent on their mass‐to‐charge ratio and the value of the magnetic field passing through the trap. Fourier transformation (FT‐ICR) decomposes the signal induced in the detection circuit by the rotation of the ions in the cell after the ...

The Influence of Audio Information Manipulation on the Perceived Atmosphere in Telepresence Systems for Remote Work

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, EarlyView.
Remote work, which enables employees to work from home, has emerged as a prominent working style in recent years. However, unlike traditional office environments where the ‘atmosphere of the space’ is naturally shared, remote work relies on screen‐based communication, making it challenging to convey this atmosphere.
