External Factors Modulating Pain and Pain‐Related Functional Impairment in Cervical Dystonia

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, Volume 11, Issue 12, Page 1559-1570, December 2024.
Abstract Background Little is known about factors modulating pain and pain‐related functional impairment in isolated cervical dystonia (CD). Objective The aim was to assess the prevalence and interrelationship between pain‐modulating factors and pain‐related determinants of functional impairment and quality of life in CD.

The Impact of Speech Anonymization on Pathology and Its Limits [PDF]

Commun Med 4, (2024)
Integration of speech into healthcare has intensified privacy concerns due to its potential as a non-invasive biomarker containing individual biometric information. In response, speaker anonymization aims to conceal personally identifiable information while retaining crucial linguistic content.

Evolution in complex systems: record dynamics in models of spin glasses, superconductors and evolutionary ecology [PDF]

arXiv, 2005
Recent research on the non-stationary nature of the dynamics of complex systems is reviewed through three specific models. The long time dynamics consists of a slow, decelerating but spasmodic release of generalized intrinsic strain. These events are denoted quakes.

Correlations Between Switching of Conductivity and Optical Radiation Observed in Thin Graphite-Like Films [PDF]

arXiv, 2006
The satisfactory explanation of abnormal electromagnetics in thin graphite-like carbon films till now is absent. The most comprehensible explanation may be the high-temperature superconductivity (HTSC). Times of spasmodic switching of electrical conductivity are measured in this work in graphite-like nanostructured carbon films, produced by methods of ...

Josephson-Like Behaviour of Granular Carbon Films [PDF]

Priroda, N8, p.38-44 (2007), 2007
This work presents the study of some new anomalous electromagnetic effects in graphite-like thin carbon films. These are: The fast switching (1nanosecond) of electrical conductivity The detection of microwave radiation and its temperature dependence The oscillations of film stack magnetization in the magnetic field of 1-5 T. The optical radiation under
