Terror and bliss? Commonalities and distinctions between sleep paralysis, lucid dreaming, and their associations with waking life experiences

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, 2016
Sleep paralysis and lucid dreaming are both dissociated experiences related to rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. Anecdotal evidence suggests that episodes of sleep paralysis and lucid dreaming are related but different experiences.

Smart Dust for Chemical Mapping

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review article explores the advancement of smart dust networks for high‐resolution spatial and temporal chemical mapping. Comprising miniature, wireless sensors, and communication devices, smart dust autonomously collects, processes, and transmits data via swarm‐based communication.

Sex Dependent Disparities in the Central Innate Immune Response after Moderate Spinal Cord Contusion in Rat

open access: yesCells
Subacute spinal cord injury (SCI) displays a complex pathophysiology associated with pro-inflammation and ensuing tissue damage. Microglia, the resident innate immune cells of the CNS, in concert with infiltrating macrophages, are the primary ...

The Role of Dynamic Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy [PDF]

open access: yesAsian Spine Journal, 2017
Dynamic spinal cord compression has been investigated for several years, but until the advent of open MRI, the use of dynamic MRI (dMRI) did not gain popularity.

Dealing with Monetary Paralysis at the Zero Bound

open access: yes, 2017
Recently, the key constraint for central banks is the zero lower bound on nominal interest rates. Central banks fear that if they push short-term policy interest rates too deeply negative, there will be a massive flight into paper currency.

Recent Advancements in Lung Cancer Metastasis Prevention Based on Nanostrategies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Metastasis is the leading cause of death in patients with lung cancer. Nanomedicine can be used to prepare efficient drug delivery systems owing to their advantages and plays an important role in the synergistic antimetastasis of lung cancer. This comprehensive review summarizes the emerging nanostrategies against lung cancer metastasis based on the ...

Survival, Integration, and Axon Growth Support of Glia Transplanted into the Chronically Contused Spinal Cord

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2005
Due to an ever-growing population of individuals with chronic spinal cord injury, there is a need for experimental models to translate efficacious regenerative and reparative acute therapies to chronic injury application.

Monoamine Release in the Cat Lumbar Spinal Cord during Fictive Locomotion Evoked by the Mesencephalic Locomotor Region

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2017
Spinal cord neurons active during locomotion are innervated by descending axons that release the monoamines serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) and these neurons express monoaminergic receptor subtypes implicated in the control of locomotion.
