Abstract The molecular mechanisms mediating chemosensory discrimination in insects are unknown. Using the enhancer trapping approach, we identified a new Drosophila mutant, lush, with odorant-specific defects olfactory behavior. lush mutant flies abnormally attracted to high concentrations of ethanol, propanol, and butanol but have normal responses other odorants. We show that wild-type an active avoidance mechanism prevent attraction concentrated alcohol, this response is defective mutants....
. Robot-assisted gait training has the potential to improve cardiopulmonary fitness after stroke, even for patients who are in early stages of recovery and not independent ambulators. The authors compared effects robot-assisted conventional physical therapy on fitness.. A prospective single-blinded, randomized controlled study 37 receiving inpatient rehabilitation was performed within 1 month stroke onset. group (n = 20) received 40 minutes with Lokomat 60 each day, whereas control 17) 100...
Purpose: Freezing of gait (FOG) affects mobility and balance seriously.Few reports have investigated the effects repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on FOG in Parkinson's disease (PD).We efficacy high-frequency rTMS for treatment PD.Methods: Seventeen patients diagnosed with PD were recruited a randomized, double-blinded, cross-over study.We applied high frequency (90% resting motor threshold, 10 Hz, 1,000 pulses) over lower leg primary cortex dominant hemisphere (M1-LL) five...
High-quality bowel preparation is necessary for colonoscopy. A few studies have been conducted to investigate improvement in quality through patient education. However, the effect of education on has not well studied. randomized and prospective study was conducted. All patients received regular instruction during a pre-colonoscopy visit. Those scheduled colonoscopy were randomly assigned view an educational video (video group) day before colonoscopy, or non-video (control) group. Qualities...
Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the site-specific effects repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on freezing gait (FOG) in patients with parkinsonism. Methods: Twenty parkinsonism and FOG were includ
Some stroke patients are known to use nonparetic extremities push toward the paretic side, a movement as lateropulsion. Lateropulsion impairs postural balance and interferes with rehabilitation.The aim of present study was investigate effect robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) on recovery from lateropulsion compared conventional physical therapy (CPT).This single-blinded, randomized controlled trial.Participants were recruited rehabilitation department tertiary hospital.Patients diagnosed...
The gold standard test for diagnosing dysphagia is the videofluoroscopic swallowing study (VFSS). However, accuracy of this varies depending on specialist's skill level. We proposed a VFSS-based artificial intelligence (AI) web application to diagnose dysphagia. Video from VFSS consists multiframe data that contain approximately 300 images. To label data, server separated them into frames during upload and stored as video analysis. Then, were loaded labeling tool perform labeling. labeled...
Background: In the early 1960s, Korean anatomist Bong Han Kim proposed existence of a circulatory system that could be anatomical basis classical acupuncture points and Meridians. Henceforth corpuscle-like structures corresponding to were referred as Bonghan corpuscles (BHC). These initial observations used only relatively simple bioanalytical methods light microscopy. Objectives: To detect catecholamine-producing cells measure adrenaline noradrenaline concentrations secreted by them in BHC....
Background: Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), a systemic inflammatory biomarker, has been associated with poorer outcomes in acute ischemic stroke patients. The present study was designed to expand these findings by investigating the association between NLR and short-term functional Methods: This retrospective evaluated patients within 7 days after onset of stroke. Stroke severity on admission measured using National Institutes Health Scale (NIHSS). were assessed Berg Balance (BBS),...
The invertebrate odorant-binding proteins consist of a large family low-molecular-weight, highly divergent expressed exclusively in the chemosensory sensilla insects. Each member this studied to date is secreted into sensillum lymph small subset by non-neuronal support cells. These expression patterns suggests an odor-specific function for these as opposed general role biology. Consistent with notion, mutants defective LUSH, Drosophila family, have defects olfactory behavior. genome contains...
The surgical approach is typically similar to those used for other supraclinoid internal carotid artery (ICA) lesions. However, the clipping of this aneurysm complicated and as a result, can result in postoperative ischemic complications. We studied clarify clip-induced complication risk AChA get benefits helping decision making.We retrospectively investigated 53 cases (4.0%) AchA treated surgically. divided 3 subtype according origin aneurysmal neck; A type originating from itself, J...
In this study, we investigated the steroidogenic effect of Taraxacum officinale extract on mouse TM3 Leydig cells, which produce male hormones by increasing levels enzymes. Steroidogenic enzymes are involved in production testosterone testis. To date, T. has not been reported. Therefore, examined effects (TOE) cells vitro. Traditionally, plants have used for treatment various kinds ailments. For many years, some medicinal to regulate steroidogenesis or late-onset hypogonadism (LOH)....
The objective of this study was to evaluate the association between falls and obesity using Asian body mass index (BMI) classifications. Using data from Korean community health survey in 2011, a total 229,226 participants ranging 19 106 years old were included study. BMI groups classified as underweight (<18.5), healthy (18.5 ≤ < 23), overweight (23 <25), obese (≥25) associations (≥1 time or ≥2 times per year) analyzed multiple logistic regression analyses with complex sampling. A subgroup...
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of quantitative parameters in transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)-induced motor evoked potentials (MEP) which can be adopted to predict functional recovery upper limb stroke patients early subacute phase. Methods One hundred thirteen (61 men, 52 women; mean age 57.8±12.2 years) who suffered faiarst-ever were included this study. All participants underwent TMS-induced MEP session assess corticospinal excitability both hand cortices within...
Introduction Longitudinal observations of upper limb motor recovery after stroke have suggested that certain subgroups may exhibit distinct patterns. Here we sought to examine whether the predictive ability for post-stroke outcomes could be enhanced by applying conventional stratification strategies. Method For 60 individuals who suffered first stroke, impairment was assessed with extremity Fugl-Meyer assessment (UE-FMA) at 2 weeks as a baseline and then 3 months post-stroke. Brain...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness and outcome selective musculocutaneous neurotomy (SMcN) for spastic elbow.We retrospectively reviewed medical records 14 patients with spasticity their elbows. were selected using clinical analytical scales, as well nerve block tests, assessment. Their mean age 37.29 years (range, 19-63 years). SMcN performed these patients, follow-up period 30.71 months 19-54 months).The modified Ashworth scale (MAS) scores recorded before after...
