Persistent Vegetative State [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Persistent vegetative state (PVS) is a condition in which a person with severe brain damage is described as being or, more precisely, seeming to be wakeful without awareness. This condition gives rise to many complex ethical and juridical questions, from the moral status of people in this condition and the dignity of their lives to the questions about ...

Circadian rhythms in the vegetative state

open access: yesBrain Injury, 2009
To evaluate whether vegetative state patients maintain circadian rhythms.An observational study of five single cases.Five chronic vegetative state patients underwent clinical and neurological evaluations and 2-week continuous temperature measurements.The two patients with traumatic brain injury showed well-formed circadian temperature rhythms and had ...

Climate-Related Floral and Vegetative Size Variation in Leptosiphon androsaceus (Polemoniaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Phenotypic plasticity in plants is a vital adaptive response to changing environmental conditions. Floral and vegetative morphology often varies as biotic and abiotic factors vary.

Variability of the Heart Rhythm as an Additional Marker for Determining Vegetative Functions in Patients with Chronic Cerebral Ischemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Aim. Practical cardiology is in constant search for non-invasive vascular risk markers. Heart rhythm reflects the body\u27s response to various stimuli of the external and internal environment. Heart rate variability (HRV) has a prognostic and diagnostic

Actin dynamics controlled by IqgC, a RasGAP at the crossroads between the IQGAP and fungal GAP1 families

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
IqgC is a RasGAP from Dictyostelium discoideum. IqgC binds RasG via its RasGAP domain and deactivates it on macroendocytic cups, thereby suppressing the uptake of fluid and particles. IqgC has a positive effect on cell‐substratum adhesion, and its RGCt domain is required for recruitment to ventral foci.

How brain-computer interface technology may improve the diagnosis of the disorders of consciousness: A comparative study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
ObjectiveClinical assessment of consciousness relies on behavioural assessments, which have several limitations. Hence, disorder of consciousness (DOC) patients are often misdiagnosed.

Unrolling of Syngonium podophyllum: Functional Anatomy, Morphology and Modelling of Its Peltate Leaves

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
The unrolling of the peltate leaves in Syngonium podophyllum is analyzed and quantified (left‐hand side to center). These measurements serve to verify a mathematical model for leaf unrolling based on the model used in Schmidt (2007). An additional formula for obtaining a layer mismatch from a prescribed radius is derived.
