Summary Modern era advancements in medical care, with improved treatment of infections, can result delayed diagnosis congenital immunodeficiencies. In this study we present a retrospective cohort 16 patients diagnosed Chronic Granulomatous Disease (CGD) at adulthood. Some the had milder clinical phenotype, but others classic phenotype severe infectious and inflammatory complications reflecting profoundly impaired neutrophil function. It is therefore great importance to investigate individual...
Exploring the properties of action potentials is a crucial step towards better understanding computational single neurons and neural networks. The voltage-gated sodium channel key player in potential generation. A comprehensive grasp gating mechanism this can shed light on biophysics However, most models channels assume concerted Hodgkin Huxley kinetic scheme. It not clear if are thus suitable for use simulations central nervous system neurons. To resolve this, we investigated activation...
New types of robots inspired by biological principles assembly, locomotion, and behavior have been recently described. In this work we explored the concept that are based on more fundamental physical phenomena, such as fluid dynamics, their potential capabilities. We report a robot made entirely non-Newtonian fluid, driven shear strains created spatial patterns audio waves. demonstrate various robotic primitives locomotion transport metallic loads-up to 6-fold heavier than itself-between...
To evaluate chorda tympani nerve function as measured by unilateral increases of gustatory thresholds in the presence ipsilateral acute otitis media.Prospective clinical study comparing electrogustometric measurements was conducted to taste each side tongue a patient during an episode media. Included were patients aged 12-40 who presented emergency department and outpatient ear, nose, throat clinic university-affiliate tertiary medical center with media between January 2019 2020 consented...
Abstract Exploring the properties of action potentials is a crucial step towards better understanding computational single neurons and neural networks. The voltage-gated sodium channel key player in potential generation. A comprehensive grasp gating mechanism this can shed light on biophysics Most models channels assume it obeys concerted Hodgkin Huxley kinetic scheme. Here we performed high resolution voltage-clamp experiments from nucleated patches extracted soma layer 5 (L5) cortical...
