Evaluating Post-Radiotherapy Laryngeal Function with Laryngeal Videostroboscopy in Early Stage Glottic Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2017
ObjectiveDysphonia is common among patients with early stage glottic cancer. Laryngeal videostroboscopy (LVS) has not been routinely used to assess post-radiotherapy (RT) voice changes.

In defence of single-premise closure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
It’s often thought that the phenomenon of risk aggregation poses a problem for multi-premise closure but not for single-premise closure. But recently, Lasonen-Aarnio and Schechter have challenged this thought.

Why human connection is the true metric of research success

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Human‐centred mentorship can be shaped by mentor attributes, actions, intrinsic drive and career ambition. Drawing on reflections across Singapore and France, as well as workshop insights from FEBS‐IUBMB ENABLE 2024, this article shows that human‐centred mentorship creates the conditions for sustainable growth, well‐being and retention in research ...

Convergent validity and ecological validity of the Test of Visual Perceptual Skills-4th Edition in people with schizophrenia

open access: yesEuropean Psychiatry, 2022
Introduction Visual perceptual deficit commonly occurs in people with schizophrenia. The Test of Visual Perceptual Skills-4th Edition (TVPS-4) is a motor-free visual perceptual measure, which includes seven subtests: visual discrimination, visual memory,

Time course of grouping of shape by perceptual closure: Effects of spatial proximity and collinearity [PDF]

open access: yesPerception & Psychophysics, 2008
We examined time course of grouping of shape by perceptual closure in three experiments using a primed matching task. The gaps between the closure-inducing contours varied in size. In addition, depending on the distribution of the gaps along the closure-inducing contours--occurring at straight contour segments or at the point of change in contour ...

Identifying transcription factors controlling the basal expression of human MRP4 highlights a substantial role for Sp1

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The MRP4 transporter exports several drugs and signaling molecules. Here, we identified key promoter elements regulating basal MRP4 expression. Using reporter assays, we defined a conserved region with essential Sp1 and contributory Ets sites, which controlled basal MRP4 expression.

Treatment of amblyopia in the adult: insights from a new rodent model of visual perceptual learning

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
Amblyopia is the most common form of impairment of visual function affecting one eye, with a prevalence of about 1-5% of the total world population. Amblyopia usually derives from conditions of early functional imbalance between the two eyes, owing to ...

Functional Connectivity Linked to Cognitive Recovery After Minor Stroke

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Patients with minor stroke exhibit slowed processing speed and generalized alterations in functional connectivity involving frontoparietal cortex (FPC). The pattern of connectivity evolves over time. In this study, we examine the relationship of functional connectivity patterns to cognitive performance, to determine ...

The Phonetic Characteristics in Patients of Bilateral Vocal Fold Paralysis Without Tracheotomy [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2017
Objectives Patients with bilateral vocal fold paralysis (BVFP) theoretically have difficulty producing voiceless consonants. However, perceptual studies have revealed clear production of voiceless consonants with good articulation scores in ...
