FUNDUS FINDINGS IN WERNICKE ENCEPHALOPATHY

Fundus Findings in Wernicke Encephalopathy

Wernicke encephalopathy (WE) is an acute neuropsychiatric syndrome resulting from thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency, classically characterized by the Flame Sensor Electrode triad of ophthalmoplegia, confusion, and ataxia.While commonly associated with chronic alcoholism, WE may also occur in the setting of poor nutrition or absorption.We present a 3

Magnetic field coupling with lunar soil simulants

Abstract Wireless power transfer (WPT) using magnetically coupled resonators is being integrated into space vehicles destined for the lunar surface.The dusty soil on the Moon, called lunar regolith, is known to adhere to surfaces and is also known to contain iron, including iron oxides and metallic iron.Regolith samples are limited, and lunar soil

ASCENT (Automated Simulations to Characterize Electrical Nerve Thresholds): A pipeline for sample-specific computational modeling of electrical stimulation of peripheral nerves.

Electrical stimulation and block of peripheral nerves hold great promise for treatment of a range of disease and disorders, but promising results from preclinical studies often fail to translate to successful clinical therapies.Differences in neural anatomy across species require different electrodes and stimulation parameters to achieve equivalent

The oilseed rape developmental expression resource: a resource for the investigation of gene expression dynamics during the floral transition in oilseed rape

Abstract Background Transcriptome time series can be used to track the expression of genes during development, allowing the timing, intensity, and dynamics of genetic programmes to be determined.Furthermore, time series analysis can reveal causal relationships between genes, leading to an understanding of how the regulatory networks are rewired dur
