While evidence suggests that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) may facilitate language recovery in chronic post-stroke aphasia, individual variability in patient response to different patterns of stimulation remains largely unexplored. We sought to characterize this variability among chronic aphasic individuals, and to explore whether repeated stimulation with an individualized opt...

INTRODUCTION Electroencephalography (EEG) is indicated for diagnosing nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) in a patient who has altered level of consciousness after a motor seizure. A study in a neonatal population found 94% sensitivity and 78% specificity for detection of seizure using a single-lead device. This study aims to show that a reduced montage EEG would detect 90% of seizures dete...

Distributed applications are increasingly relying on and integrating remote resources including community data sources, services, and computational platforms. The coupling of distributed resources for data-intensive applications can expose bottlenecks across highly shared pathways, e.g. the network. In this paper, we consider applications that access remote clouds for data, computation, or serv...

Introduction: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are most important work-related injuries and debilities in developed and developing industrial countries. In the recent years, the rate of injuries and MSDs in car montage industries compared with other industries was so more. Therefore, the purpose of present study was focused on ergonomic assessment of sina car montage industry employees’ workin...

Objective: Cerebral edema characterized as an abnormal accumulation of interstitial fluid has not been treated effectively. We propose a novel treatment approach to drive edematous out the brain by direct current utilizing tissue's electroosmotic property. Methods: A finite element (FE) head model is developed and employed assess feasibility approach. First, capacity for electric field predicti...

Prenant appui sur un modèle développement compétences durables inscrit en didactique professionnelle, dix personnes expérimentées soudage-montage ont participé recherche qualitative le processus travail. Une démarche d’analyse contenu a permis décrire les paliers décisionnels et opérationnel...

OBJECTIVES Computational methods are increasingly used to optimize transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) dose strategies and yet complexities of existing approaches limit their clinical access. Since predictive modelling indicates the relevance of subject/pathology based data and hence the need for subject specific modelling, the incremental clinical value of increasingly complex model...

There are many kinds of automobile after-sale service spare parts, which are with a complex relationship in replacement and a large time span in models. The management of automobile after-sale service spare parts is a challenge, not only for automobile manufacturer but also for distributor. Therefore, it becomes an important and difficult task for automobile enterprises to do well in the supply...
