In this study, research was carried out on the end-effector force estimation of two representative multi-muscle contraction tasks elbow flexion and palm-pressing. The aim was to ascertain whether an individual muscle or a combination of muscles is more suitable for the end-effector force estimation. High-density surface electromyography (HD-sEMG)…[Read more]

chronic depression courses. At a population level, PDD is associated with remarkably higher individual and economic disease burden than NCMDD, highlighting the need to improve medical recognition of chronic courses and establish specific treatment concepts for chronic depression.BACKGROUND Maternal and child mortality remain a global health…[Read more]

The potential of biodiversity loss to impair the delivery of ecosystem services has motived ecologists to better understand the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning.

doi10.2105/AJPH.2020.305707).In suckling mammals, the onset of solid food ingestion is coincident with the maturation of the gut barrier. This ontogenic process is driven by the colonization of the intestine by the microbiota. However, the mechanisms underlying the microbial regulation of the intestinal development in early life are not fully…[Read more]

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Coiling and flow diversion are established endovascular techniques for treatment of cavernous carotid aneurysms (CCAs). We performed a systematic review of published series on endovascular treatment of CCAs in order to assess the efficacy and safety between coiling and flow diversion. METHODS We conducted a computerized…[Read more]
