Palatal tremor (PT), also known as palatal myoclonus, is defined by short rhythmic contractions of the palatal musculature. Functional MR imaging (fMRI) revealed prominent bilateral neuronal activation in the putamen associated with essential palatal tremor (EPT) in a 41-year-old man. This implies a central role of the putamen in EPT, most likely as a consequence of diminished inhibition in an ...

During the development of physics, we can see that Equipartition Theorem (EPT) has been redefined many times. In this paper, start with description historical theorem along various definitions given by different scientists. Then found expressions for classical, quantum, and discrete energy systems EPT.

Amaç: Bu çalışmada menstrual siklusun sağlıklı pulpa duyarlılığına etkisi araştırıldı. Objective: In this study, effect of menstrual cycle on healthy pulp sensitivity was investigated. Materials and methods: Pulpal sensitivity was assessed with electric pulp tester (EPT). The study was performed on 13 dental students without dysmenorrhea (49 teeth). Recordings were taken on four phases of the c...

Benthic macroinvertebrate communities of Lake Tanganyika tributaries in pristine, forested, and impacted, deforested, watersheds were examined. Samples were collected using a Surber-sampler, and identified under a dissecting microscope. Family biotic indices (FBI), percent of Ephemeroptera/Plecoptera/Trichoptera (%EPT), relative Chironomid abundance (RCA), and taxa richness of five impacted str...

Substantial increase in the use of menopausal hormone therapy (HT) throughout the 1990s, followed by widespread discontinuation after the 2002 publication of the Women's Health Initiative findings, has resulted in large numbers of former HT users among U.S. women. However, few studies have examined whether ovarian cancer risk varies according to recency and duration of specific HT regimens. We ...

Functional recovery following experimental nerve injury has been notoriously difficult to quantify precisely. The current gold standard in the rat sciatic nerve model involves analysis of footprints of the recovering animal, and computation of the sciatic function index (SFI). We performed transection injuries and measured recovery both by walking track analysis and by a newer, simpler, more qu...
