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 ...

Astronomical spectrograph calibration with broad-spectrum frequency combs

, 2008
Broadband femtosecond-laser frequency combs are filtered to spectrographically resolvable frequency-mode spacing, and the limitations of using cavities for spectral filtering are considered. Data and theory are used to show implications to spectrographic

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.

Audiological Characteristics in Vestibular Schwannoma Patients

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Vestibular schwannoma (VS) is a benign tumor that originates from the Schwann cells of the vestibular nerve sheath in the internal auditory canal. This retrospective study collected data from patients with VS who underwent surgical treatment to identify their demographic characteristics and audiometric features.

A Novel Converter Transformer DAM‐LSTNet Vibration Generation Model for Data Imbalance Identification

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Converter transformer vibration failures, primarily because of winding and core vibrations, severely impact the safe operation of high voltage direct current (HVDC) systems. These vibrations are influenced by voltage and current, and are transmitted through transformer oil and structural components to the tank. Current numerical models fail to

A fundamental limit on the performance of geometrically-tuned planar resonators [PDF]

, 2011
Geometric frequency tuning in planar electromagnetic resonators is common in many applications. It comes, however, at a penalty in the resonance quality, Q0. The literature traces the causes of such penalty often in terms of the shortcomings in the added

The tympanic covering layer contributes to basilar membrane elasticity potentially influencing human frequency resolution and speech perception

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this study we show for the first time that the human basilar membrane contains elastin produced by the so‐called tympanic covering layer. It is believed to play an important functional role in human cochlear tuning, particularly low frequencies linked to our remarkable speech and music perception.
