Ventral anterior thalamic dysfunction distinguishes seizure generalization in temporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal‐to‐bilateral tonic–clonic seizures (FBTCS) in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) involve thalamocortical networks, yet the functional integrity and role of specific thalamic subregions in seizure generalization remain unclear. In this cross‐sectional study, we investigated whether thalamic subregion functional connectivity patterns ...

Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) in Saskatchewan – Should SMRs be added to Saskatchewan’s energy portfolio?

, 2021
Should Saskatchewan use Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) to help lower Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) emitted by generating electricity? In this capstone, I identify and assess a number of policy considerations that are at play in answering this question. Canada committed to lowering its GHG emissions as part of the Paris Climate Agreement of 2015.

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy comprises a highly heterogeneous group of neurological disorders unified by a persistent predisposition to recurrent seizures, yet driven by remarkably diverse genetic, molecular, and network‐level mechanisms. Advances in genomic technologies have revealed that epilepsy arises from a multilayered genetic architecture encompassing rare

Selecting Between Hydrogen and Methanol for Fuel Cell‐Organic Rankine Cycle Hybrid Power Systems: A Comparative 4E Analysis

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A 4E comparison of PEMFC‐ORC and DMFC‐ORC systems shows that PEMFC‐ORC achieves 21% higher energy efficiency, while DMFC‐ORC obtains 31% higher exergy efficiency and 57% lower levelized cost of electricity. However, DMFC‐ORC emits nearly twice the annual carbon dioxide equivalent of PEMFC‐ORC.

Modeling the impacts of grazing management on livestock behavior and performance: A case study in the Peruvian Andes

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Our modeling study shows that livestock management strongly influences grazing behavior and animal performance in the Peruvian Andes. Furthermore, adjusting stocking rates and improving animal distribution can enhance forage intake and body condition while increasing forage biomass.

Practitioner's Pulse: A Content Analysis Approach for Examining Prevalent Topics in HRD Practitioner Periodicals

Human Resource Development Quarterly, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article presents a methodological approach for analyzing Human Resource Development (HRD) practitioner perspectives through a content analysis (CA) of periodicals. While CA has been applied to academic literature, its application to practitioner periodicals represents a methodological reorientation because these sources differ ...

Exchange Rates and Sovereign Risk: A Nonlinear Approach Based on Local Gaussian Correlations

International Journal of Finance &Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We empirically assess the interlinkages between sovereign risk, measured in terms of CDS spreads, and exchange rates for a sample of emerging markets. Our period of analysis includes episodes of severe stress, such as the Global Financial Crisis, the COVID‐19 pandemic, and the Ukrainian War.
