An approach for coherent periodogram averaging of tilt‐series data for improved contrast transfer function estimation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The contrast transfer function (CTF) is an imaging aberration that is a major resolution‐limiting factor in cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM). Precise CTF estimation is key to overcoming this limitation, but is particularly challenging in cryo‐electron tomography (cryo‐ET) data. Here, we present an approach for using geometric information to assist in

A jsPsych plugin for visual analogue scales

, 2022
Visual analogue scales (VASs) allow survey respondents to specify their answers with a high degree of precision, unlike Likert-type scales in which only a few categorical responses are available. In web-based research, HTML sliders (in which the respondent drags and drops a marker) are sometimes used as a substitute for VASs, but sliders produce data ...

UR‐cycleGAN: Denoising full‐body low‐dose PET images using cycle‐consistent Generative Adversarial Networks

Journal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aims to develop a CycleGAN based denoising model to enhance the quality of low‐dose PET (LDPET) images, making them as close as possible to standard‐dose PET (SDPET) images. Methods Using a Philips Vereos PET/CT system, whole‐body PET images of fluorine‐18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F‐FDG) were acquired from 37 patients to ...

Analogue spacetime based on 2-component Bose-Einstein condensates [PDF]

Lect.NotesPhys.718:115-163,2007, 2006
Analogue spacetimes are powerful models for probing the fundamental physical aspects of geometry - while one is most typically interested in ultimately reproducing the pseudo-Riemannian geometries of interest in general relativity and cosmology, analogue models can also provide useful physical probes of more general geometries such as pseudo-Finsler ...

Benzydamine gargle versus ketamine gargle for postoperative sore throat

Medicine Science, 2018
Postoperative sore throat is usually accepted as a minor complication, however it contributes to patient dissatisfaction. The primary aim of this study is to compare the effects of two different therapies for postoperative sore throat.

CSF Biomarker‐Based Cognitive Trajectories in Parkinson's Disease‐Subjective Cognitive Decline

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cognitive complaints without objective cognitive impairment in Parkinson's Disease, termed Parkinson's Disease‐Subjective Cognitive Decline (PD‐SCD), have been associated with cognitive decline. However, its progression is heterogeneous, highlighting the need for improved identification of patients at greater risk for deterioration ...

Effects of Pharmacologic and Nonpharmacologic Interventions for the Management of Sleep Problems in People With Fibromyalgia: Systematic Review and Network Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain and fatigue. Almost everyone with fibromyalgia has sleep problems. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of current interventions for the management of fibromyalgia‐related sleep problems.

Effectiveness of a Telephone‐Delivered Walk With Ease Program on Arthritis‐Related Symptoms, Function, and Activity: A Randomized Trial

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Walk With Ease (WWE) is a six‐week arthritis‐appropriate evidence‐based physical activity program traditionally offered in a face‐to‐face format. Because many populations encounter participation barriers to in‐person programs, WWE was modified for telephone delivery (WWE‐T).

Analogue algorithm for parallel factorization of an exponential number of large integers II. Optical implementation [PDF]

V. Tamma, Quantum Inf Process 11128:1189, 2015, 2015
We report a detailed analysis of the optical realization [1, 3, 2, 4] of the analogue algorithm described in the first paper of this series [5] for the simultaneous factorization of an exponential number of integers. Such an analogue procedure, which scales exponentially in the context of first order interference, opens up the horizon to polynomial ...
