Fatigue, a hot scientific research topic for centuries, can trigger sudden failure of critical structures such as aircraft and railway systems, resulting in enormous casualties as well as economic losses. The fatigue life of certain structures is intrinsically random and few monitoring techniques
The water tree resistance of crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) initiated by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation technique is investigated through a water blade electrode method, and the effects of the mechanism of UV irradiation crosslinking on inhibiting water tree growth are revealed with dynamic
BACKGROUND
The use of neuraminidase-inhibiting anti-viral medication to treat influenza is relatively infrequent. Rapid, cost-effective methods for diagnosing influenza are needed to enable appropriate prescribing. Multi-viral respiratory panels using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction
Mulberry (Morus alba L.) is a tree species of Moraceae widely distributed in Southern China. In the present study, the white crystal of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) was purified from mulberry leaves, and its bioactivity was also investigated. The main results were as follows: first, the crude GABA was
Postoperative fatigue (POF) is a common complication after gastrointestinal tumor surgery, and it also brings negative effect on prognosis and life quality. However, there are no prediction models for POF, and studies of risk factors are not comprehensive. Therefore, the aim of this The Sjögren's Syndrome Foundation clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) are designed to improve quality and consistency of care in Sjögren's syndrome by offering recommendations for management.
Management questions for the systemic manifestations of Sjögren's syndrome were posed by the CPG committee
The influence of muscle fatigue on the jaw-closing muscle spindle activity has been investigated by analyzing: (1) the field potentials evoked in the trigeminal motor nucleus (Vmot) by trigeminal mesencephalic nucleus (Vmes) stimulation, (2) the orthodromic and antidromic responses evoked in the
BACKGROUND
A report by the National Cancer Institute identified that an important gap in symptom research is the investigation of multiple symptoms of cancer that might identify common biological mechanisms among cancer-related symptoms.
OBJECTIVE
We applied novel statistical methods to assess
Some patients have residual non-specific symptoms after therapy for Lyme disease, referred to as post-treatment Lyme disease symptoms or syndrome, depending on whether there is functional impairment. A standardized test battery was used to characterize a diverse group of Lyme disease patients with
To address the question of whether the behavior of humans to view different phenological peony flowers has various effects on their physical and mental parameters, we investigated psycho-physiological responses of 74 participants (61.3 ± 10.78 years old) to environments of pre- and post-viewing tree
BACKGROUND
Patients with centrally located lung tumors have been reported to have a higher risk of toxicity when treated with stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) compared with patients with peripheral tumors. The optimal SBRT fractionation schedule for treatment of central tumors is unknown. The
BACKGROUND
Furuncular myiasis is likely to be seen by Western dermatologists because of the increasing number of international travelers but remains unfamiliar to most of them, who tend to refer these patients to hospitals. Different treatments have been proposed, but many of them are not achievable
