PURPOSE This study examines whether magnetoencephalographic (MEG) coherence imaging is more sensitive than the standard single equivalent dipole (ECD) model in lateralizing the site of epileptogenicity in patients with drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). METHODS An archival review of ECD MEG analyses of 30 presurgical patients with TLE was undertaken with data extracted subsequently ...

Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare disorder of tissue growth and differentiation, characterized by benign hamartomas in the brain and other organs. Up to 90% of TSC patients develop epilepsy and 50% become medically intractable requiring resective surgery. The surgical outcome of TSC patients depends on the accurate identification of the epileptogenic zone consisting of tubers and the s...

In this paper, the printed UHF RFID tag dipole antenna design is optimized to reduce the consumption of conductive material. The optimized design is achieved by narrowing the width of the low current density areas. The proposed optimized dipole antenna design requires less amount of conductive ink to achieve the equivalent radiation efficiency level as the ideal copper-trace dipole antenna. The...

PURPOSE Multifocally stimulated visual evoked magnetic field (VEF) examination with an m-sequence technique (multifocal VEF; mVEF) was studied, and the neural generators at peaks of mVEF were estimated in the visual cortex. METHODS Visual field stimulation was generated by a multifocal testing system with use of the m-sequence technique. The stimulation pattern covered a central area extendin...

Although electronic and magnetic circular dichroism (ECD, MCD) spectra reveal valuable details about molecular geometry and electronic structure, quantum-chemical simulations significantly facilitate their interpretation. However, the simulated results may depend on the choice of coordinate origin. Previously (Štěpánek and Bouř, J. Comput. Chem. 2013, 34, 1531), the sum-over-states (SOS) method...

The hypoxic brain damage induced by stroke is followed by an ischemia-reperfusion injury modulated by oxidative stress. Magnetoencephalographic (MEG) recording of rest and evoked cortical activities is a sensitive method to analyse functional changes following the acute ischemic damage. We aimed at investigating whether MEG signals are related to oxidative stress compounds in acute stroke. Eigh...

in this research we work with the effective hamiltonian and the quark model. we investigate the decay rates of matter-antimatter of quark. we describe the effective hamiltonian theory and apply this theory to the calculation of current-current ( ), qcd penguin ( ), magnetic dipole ( ) and electroweak penguin ( ) decay rates. the gluonic penguin structure of hadronic decays is studied through th...

OBJECTIVE The pathophysiological mechanisms of partial reading epilepsy are still unclear. We delineated the spatial-temporal characteristics of reading-induced epileptic spikes and hemodynamic activation in a patient with partial reading epilepsy. METHODS Magnetoencephalography (MEG) was recorded during silent letter-by-letter reading, and the source of reading-induced spikes was estimated u...

This research, works with the effective Hamiltonian and the quark model. Using, the decay rates of matter-antimatter of b quark was investigated. We described the effective Hamiltonian theory which was applied to the calculation of current-current (Q1,2), QCD penguin (Q3,…,6), magnetic dipole (Q8) and electroweak penguin (Q7,…,10) decay rates. The gluonic penguin structure of hadronic decays ...
