Two hands for degradation

Two signalling hands for uPAR.

doi:10.1160/TH13-01-0001 Thromb Haemost 2013; 109: 179 T&H Insight on ▶Montuori et al. Thromb Haemost 2013; 109: 309-318. Transmembrane proteins usually relay signals to the cytoplasm and nucleus via their intracellular domains. Nonetheless, this paradigm is challenged by glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins. Although completely extracellular, these proteins are linked to the li...

One hand, two hands, or no hands for maximizing airway maneuvers?

A Sensors-based Two Hands Gestures Interface for Virtual Spaces

Tri-dimensional (3D) environments are currently built and manipulated in two-dimensional (2D) spaces trough the use of the WIMP (Windows, Icons, Menus and Pointers) paradigm that visualizes the objects from multiple views in several windows. This document presents the advantages of use of a six degree-of-freedom input device for the creation and manipulation of 3D objects in 3D spaces. A new er...

Is one motor cortex enough for two hands?

We report on a patient with mirror movements sustained by a mono-hemispheric fast control of bilateral hand muscles and normal hand function. Transcranial magnetic stimulation of the right motor cortex evoked contractions of muscles in both hands while no responses were observed from the left hemisphere. Somatosensory-evoked potentials, functional magnetic resonance, and diffusion tractography ...

When Two Dual Chaotic Systems Shake Hands

which is chaotic on a particular parameter set, (σ, ρ, β) = (10, 28, 8/3)1 in the real parameter space of the general system (1); but for other parameter sets, system (1) may not be chaotic. The chaotic Lorenz system (2) has received sustained research interest in the literature since its discovery. For example, in [Tucker, 1999; Stewart, 2000], a rigorous proof confirms the existence of the ch...
