Numerical modeling of the effects of roughness on flow and eddy formation in fractures
Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2017 The effect of roughness on flow in fractures was investigated using lattice Boltzmann method (LBM). Simulations were conducted for both statistically generated hypothetical fractures and a natural dolomite fracture.

Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) as a useful tool to evaluate the treatment efficacy of positive airways pressure therapy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS): A pilot study [PDF]
Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences, 2014 In obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSA) the periodic reduction or cessation of breathing due to narrowing or occlusion of the upper airway during sleep leads to an impaired cerebral vascular autoregulation that is associated with an increased ...

Scientific Reports, 2017 Intrathoracic pressure (ITP) swings challenge many physiological systems. The responses of cerebral hemodynamics to different ITP swings are still less well-known due to the complexity of cerebral circulation and methodological limitation.

Personality features ina sample of psychophysiological insomnia patients [PDF]
Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2003 The personality is the way people express themselves inside the environment they live. Sleep, quality or quantity, is a way of this physical and psychological expression of well being.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Under environmental changes, the expression level of neuropeptide (NP) and neuropeptide receptor (NPR) genes changes to confer context‐dependent adaptation to the model organism Drosophila melanogaster. Through finding more regulatory elements in the NPR genes in comparison with their ligands (NPs), we found that NPR‐biased transcriptional regulation ...

Biosensors, 2021 Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder, and continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the most effective treatment. Poor adherence is one of the major challenges in CPAP therapy. The recent boom of wearable optical sensors measuring

Diffusion‐based size determination of solute particles: a method adapted for postsynaptic proteins
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We present a diffusion‐based approach for measuring the size of macromolecules and their complexes, and demonstrate its use on postsynaptic proteins. The method requires fluorescein‐labelled protein samples, a microfluidic device that maintains laminar flow for said samples, a microscope recording the emitted fluorescent signals, and an analytic ...

Treating restless legs syndrome in the context of sleep disordered breathing comorbidity
European Respiratory Review, 2019 Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and restless legs syndrome (RLS) are two of the most prevalent sleep disorders and can coexist within the same patient. Nonetheless, the recognition of RLS among OSA patients has important clinical implications, since RLS ...
