The most interesting, but insufficiently known results obtained by the author in modeling laser-induced hyperthermia of human tumors are discussed. It is important that traditional equation for local bio-heat transfer does not work superficial layers body. shown also classical Arrhenius law applicable to living tissues because tissue regeneration due oxygen supplied arterial blood. latter one m...

The phosphorylation of serine 10 in histone 3 (p-S10H3) has recently been demonstrated to participate spinal nociceptive processing. However, superficial dorsal horn (SDH) neurons involved p-S10H3-mediated nociception have not fully characterized. In the present work, we combined immunohistochemistry, situ hybridization with retrograde labeling projection reveal subset presenting an elevated le...

Small mammals play important roles in many ecosystems, and understanding their response to disturbances such as cattle grazing is fundamental for developing sustainable land use strategies. However, how small mammals respond to cattle grazing remains controversial. A potential cause is that most of previous studies adopt rather simple experimental designs based solely on the presence/absence of...

several previous studies of adults have reported that the amplitudes of the sural and superficial radial nerve (sn and srn) action potentials are larger with antidromic than with orthodromic recordings. however, this difference has not been documented in children. this study evaluated the amplitudes of sn and srn sensory nerve action potentials (snaps), obtained with antidromic and orthodromic ...

The incidence of superficial arteries was studied in 68 (38 right and 30 left) upper extremities. One right limb of an adult male presented a superficial arterial pattern (2.63%, total 1.47%) resembling a superficial brachio-ulno-radial artery (SBUR). The median nerve crossed the superficial brachial artery (SBA) from the posterior to the medial side and again posterior to the same at the cubit...

This paper extends recent work on decision tree grafting. Grafting is an inductive process that adds nodes to inferred decision trees. This process is demonstrated to frequently improve predictive accuracy. Superficial analysis might suggest that decision tree grafting is the direct reverse of pruning. To the contrary, it is argued that the two processes are complementary. This is because, like...
