Identification of characteristics of foot position and angle during swing phase in fallers using principal component analysis

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Identifying the characteristics of fallers is important for preventing falls because such events may reduce quality of life. It has been reported that several variables related to foot positions and angles during gait (e.g., sagittal foot angle and ...

Painlevé Functions in Statistical Physics

Publications of the Research Institute for Mathematical Sciences, 2011
We review recent progress in limit laws for the one-dimensional asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) on the integer lattice. The limit laws are expressed in terms of a certain Painlevé II function. Furthermore, we take this opportunity to give a brief survey of the appearance of Painlevé functions in statistical physics.

Realism and the wave-function [PDF]

, 2002
Realism -- the idea that the concepts in physical theories refer to 'things' existing in the real world -- is introduced as a tool to analyze the status of the wave-function.

Corticotropin releasing factor neurons in the visual cortex mediate long-term changes in visual function induced by early adversity

Neurobiology of Stress, 2022
Early adversity can cause malfunction of the visual system in adulthood. Adult female but not male mice undergoing early chronic mild stress (ECMS) maintain ocular dominance (OD) plasticity after the critical period.

Improving Nasal Airflow with a Novel Nasal Breathing Stent

Dentistry Journal, 2022
Nasal obstruction requires close attention, as it is a risk factor for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This study evaluated airflow rates of our newly designed nasal breathing stent (NBS) compared with those of existing nasal dilators in 10 adult men.
