Sensory stimuli trigger complex patterns of neuronal action potentials in the brain. Measurement of these patterns is important for understanding the way the brain processes information. There are currently no efficient techniques to visualize patterns of highfrequency action potentials. Because individual action potentials result in transient increases in intracellular Ca2+, fluorescent calciu...

Fracture of mandible can be classified according to its anatomical location, in which condylar fracture is the most common one overall and is missed on clinical examination. Due to the unique geometry of the mandible and temporomandibular joint, without treatment the fractures can result in marked pain, dysfunction, and deformity. The condylar fracture may be further classified depending on the...

an experiment was conducted at the research farm of the faculty of agriculture, university of tabriz, iran in 2012 to study the effect of intercropping of chickpea and dragon’s head on yield, yield components and morphological traits of dragon’s head as affected by four weed management time. the experiment was laid out in rcb design with three replications. intercropping patterns included; a1, ...

The lateral line system detects water flow, which allows fish to orient their swimming with respect to hydrodynamic cues. However, it is unclear whether this sense plays a role in the control of propulsion. Hydrodynamic theory suggests that fish could reduce drag by coordinating the motion of the head relative to detected flow signals. To test this hypothesis, we performed measurements of undul...

Motile porcine sperms adhere to hydrophilic materials such as glass and plastics. The adsorption of sperms to a hydrophobic poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) membrane is less compared with that to glass. We investigated the linear velocity (LV) and amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALHD) of motile porcine sperm on glass and PDMS preparations using computer-assisted sperm analysis (CASA). Sign...

We reviewed the outcome of curved intertrochanteric varus osteotomy in the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head in 20 hips. A mean varus angulation of 31 degrees was obtained by the osteotomy. The ratio of intact area on the weight-bearing portion increased from 19% to 61%. The mean elevation and lateral displacement of the greater trochanter were 1.2 cm and 0.5 cm, respectively. Thes...

PURPOSE Determining the magnitude of displacement in pediatric lateral humeral condyle fractures can be difficult. The purpose of this study was to (1) assess the effect of forearm rotation on true fracture displacement using a cadaver model and to (2) determine the accuracy of radiographic measurements of the fracture gap. METHODS A non-displaced fracture was created in three human cadaveric...

We study the design parameters for an orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexed free-space data link. Power loss, channel crosstalk and power penalty of the link are analyzed in the case of misalignment between the transmitter and receiver (lateral displacement, receiver angular error, or transmitter pointing error). The relationship among the system power loss and link distance, transmitted b...
