Isolated dystonia manifests with involuntary muscle hyperactivity, but the extent of cognitive impairment remains controversial.We examined the executive functions in blepharospasm while accounting for motor symptom-related distractions as a factor often limiting the interpretability of neuropsychological studies in dystonia.Our control group compr
The notion of indistinguishability operator plays a central role in a large number of problems that arise naturally in decision-making, artificial intelligence, and computer science.Among the different issues studied for these operators, the aggregation problem has been thoroughly explored.In some cases, the notion of indistinguishability operator
Candida albicans SC5314 is the most-often used strain for molecular manipulation of the species.The SC5314 reference genome sequence is the result of considerable effort from many scientists and has advanced research into fungal biology and pathogenesis.Although the resource is highly developed and presented in a phased diploid format, the sequence
BackgroundNumerous procedures are available for nipple reconstruction without a single gold standard.This study presents a method for reducing donor-site morbidity in nipple reconstruction using a composite nipple graft after transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous flap breast reconstruction.MethodsThirty-five patients who underwent nipple rec
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a human pathogen that frequently causes urinary tract and catheter-associated urinary tract infections.Here, using 13C-metabolic flux analysis, we conducted quantitative analysis of metabolic fluxes in the model strain P.aeruginosa Protein Shakes PAO1 and 17 clinical isolates.All P.aeruginosa strains catabolized glucose th
