BACKGROUND Spatial working memory (SWM) dysfunction is a feature of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Previous studies suggested that behavioral performance in self-generated SWM improves through development in children with and without ADHD. Nevertheless, developmental changes in the neural underpinnings of self-generated SWM are unknown. METHOD Using near-infrared spectroscop...

INTRODUCTION Interindividual variations in regional structural properties covary across the brain, thus forming networks that change as a result of aging and accompanying neurological conditions. The alterations of superficial white matter (SWM) in Alzheimer's disease (AD) are of special interest, since they follow the AD-specific pattern characterized by the strongest neurodegeneration of the ...

The purpose of this study was to define the risk of progression and survival of patients with smoldering Waldenström macroglobulinemia (SWM). SWM is defined clinically as having a serum monoclonal IgM protein≥3 g/dL and/or≥10% bone marrow lymphoplasmacytic infiltration but no evidence of end-organ damage (anemia, constitutional symptoms, hyperviscosity, lymphadenopathy, or hepatosplenomegaly). ...

Solid waste management (SWM) has recently received more attention, especially in developing countries, for smart and sustainable development. SWM system encompasses various interconnected processes which contain numerous complex operations. Recently, deep learning (DL) attained momentum providing alternative computational techniques to determine the solution of problems. Researchers have focuse...

It is well documented that both cognitive and motor learning abilities decline with normative aging. Given that cognitive processes such as working memory are engaged during the early stages of motor learning [Anguera, J., Reuter-Lorenz, P., Willingham, D., & Seidler, R. Contributions of spatial working memory to visuomotor learning. Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 22(9), 1917-1930, 2010], a...

The increasing generation of solid waste, varying waste compositions, and inefficient recovery processes have limited the performance traditional approaches. It is urgent to collect a virtual special issue (VSI) that consolidates research on efficient models better treatment technologies break up current system limitations. Recently, Solid Waste Management (SWM) strategies focus reuse recycling...

The purpose of this study was to define the risk of progression and survival of patients with smoldering Waldenström macroglobulinemia (SWM). SWM is defined clinically as having a serum monoclonal IgM protein > 3 g/dL and/or > 10% bone marrow lymphoplasmacytic infiltration but no evidence of end-organ damage (anemia, constitutional symptoms, hyperviscosity, lymphadenopathy, or hepatosplenomegal...

With the growing population, solid waste management (SWM) is becoming a significant environmental challenge and an emerging issue, especially in eco-sensitive Indian Himalayan region (IHR). Though IHR does not host high local inhabitants, tourist footfall increases wastes significantly. The lack of appropriate SWM facilities has posed serious threat to mountain-dwelling communities. challenging...

Background: Substantial progress has been made in the development and testing of potentially profitable technologies for improved soil and water management in Sub-Saharan Africa (Buresh 1997, Sanders et al. 1996). There is also some evidence that particular types of soil and water management technologies (e.g. rock lines, branch barriers, small dikes, vegetative bands, compost pits) are beginni...

The solid waste management (SWM) represents one of the most important challenges worldwide in current period. Also, it contributes to large negative effect on three aspects sustainability which are environmental, social and economic sustainability. Approximately 50% total annual global generated (SW) is from construction demolition (CDW). case CDW Egypt has become a major challenge, encounters ...
