Optimal model‐based design of experiments for parameter precision: Supercritical extraction case

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the process of chamomile oil extraction from flowers. A parameter‐distributed model consisting of a set of partial differential equations is used to describe the governing mass transfer phenomena in a cylindrical packed bed with solid chamomile particles under supercritical conditions using carbon dioxide as a solvent ...

Linking Sleep Slow Oscillation with consciousness theories: new vistas on slow wave Slepeep unconsciousness

open access: yesArchives Italiennes de Biologie, 2015
We review current models of consciousness in the context of wakefulness and sleep. We show that recent results on Slow Wave Sleep, including our own works, naturally fit within consciousness models. In particular, Sleep Slow Oscillations, namely low-frequency (

Fetal Pain Perception: Legislative Assertions and Developmental Neuroscience

open access: yesAnnals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pain perception is a conscious experience, but neither pain nor consciousness is defined in the developing human fetus. Emergent consciousness may be regarded as a phenomenon that ultimately arises from an essential minimum of functional neuronal connectivity. Proposed U.S.

Effects of sildenafil on autonomic nervous function during sleep in obstructive sleep apnea

open access: yesClinics, 2010
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of sildenafil on the autonomic nervous system in patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea. METHODS: Thirteen male patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea (mean age 43±10 years with a mean body mass index of 26 ...

Slow Wave Sleep: Does it Matter? [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Sleep Medicine, 2009
Sleep is a behavior observed in all living organisms and is necessary for survival. In rodents, total sleep deprivation results in a large rise in energy expenditure and consequent weight loss, despite increased food intake and — unless sleep deprivation is halted — it leads to death, usually in 2–3 weeks.1 Death associated with chronic sleep ...

Efficacy of vagus nerve stimulator during transition to adulthood in patients with treatment‐resistant epilepsy

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the efficacy of vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) as an adjunctive treatment in pediatric patients with treatment‐resistant epilepsy during the transition to adolescence. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study of 30 children (ages 2–18 years) with medication‐resistant epilepsy who underwent VNS implantation between

Resolution of generalized tonic seizures following focal ablative or resective surgery

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal brain lesions may underlie generalized tonic seizures, as seen in Lennox–Gastaut syndrome, by engaging bilateral neural networks. However, this seizure type is often not considered surgically remediable. Here, we describe the resolution of apparent electroclinically classic generalized tonic seizures in children originating ...

Electro‐clinical features of Mowat–Wilson syndrome: A retrospective study of 31 children in mainland China

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To summarize the electro‐clinical and genetic characteristics of children with Mowat–Wilson syndrome (MWS). Methods This study is a hospital‐based case series analyzing clinical data from 31 pediatric patients with MWS and epilepsy treated at Peking University First Hospital between June 2020 and December 2024.

Local and Widespread Slow Waves in Stable NREM Sleep: Evidence for Distinct Regulation Mechanisms

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018
Previous work showed that two types of slow waves are temporally dissociated during the transition to sleep: widespread, large and steep slow waves predominate early in the falling asleep period (type I), while smaller, more circumscribed slow waves ...
