Neurovascular Contacts in the Pathophysiology of Neuralgic Amyotrophy: An Observational Study
ABSTRACT Objective Neuralgic amyotrophy (NA) is a prevalent, monophasic, multifocal immune‐mediated neuropathy. A distinctive characteristic of the disease is the occurrence of nerve or fascicle constrictions and torsions (NA‐associated focal nerve lesions, NAFL). The pathophysiology underlying this phenomenon remains to be fully elucidated.

Prediction of the modulus of elasticity of Eucalyptus grandis through two nondestructive techniques
The present study aimed to estimate the modulus of elasticity (MOE) at static bending of Rose gum (Eucalyptus grandis) heartwood and sapwood through two nondestructive techniques: ultrasound and stress wave.

Numerical simulation of stress wave propagation in joint rock specimens with cavity defects
The process of crack initiation, propagation, and coalescence is the essential cause of rock failure. A three-dimensional numerical model based on microscopic damage mechanics is adopted to simulate the failure process and acoustic emissions (AEs) of a ...

ABSTRACT Objective Variants in SLC6A1, encoding the GABA transporter 1 (GAT‐1), cause epilepsy, autism spectrum disorder, and developmental delay via loss of GABA uptake, impaired trafficking, and ER retention. We previously found that 4‐Phenylbutyrate (PBA), an FDA‐approved drug, restores GABA uptake and reduces seizures in SLC6A1‐related disorders ...

White Matter Microstructural Abnormalities in Neonatal Onset Genetic Epilepsy
ABSTRACT Objective Recent evidence indicates that epilepsy is associated with abnormal white matter. If seizures alter white matter, then the impact upon network function, epileptogenesis, and cognition could be pronounced in neonates undergoing rapid developmental myelination. Neonates with epilepsy due to nonstructural genetic causes provide a unique

Natural Frequencies of Levodopa‐Induced Dyskinesia in Parkinson's Disease
ABSTRACT Objectives Abnormal involuntary movements, known as dyskinesias, are common complications of levodopa treatment in patients with Parkinson's disease and can significantly impair quality of life. The underlying pathophysiology remains unclear, and current therapeutic options are limited.

Influence of notch hole wall defects on crack propagation under notch blasting
The defective cracks were prefabricated on the wall of the notch holes by using polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) material, which were parallel or vertical to the notch, and the distance from the defective cracks to the hole center was 2, 3, and 4 mm.
