Hemispheric difference of adaptation lifetime in human auditory cortex measured with MEG.

Adaptation is the attenuation of a neuronal response when a stimulus is repeatedly presented. The phenomenon has been linked to sensory memory, but its exact neuronal mechanisms are under debate. One defining feature of adaptation is its lifetime, that is, the timespan over which the attenuating effect of previous stimulation persists.

Left atrial myxoma metastasizing to the brain: a case report and review of literature.

Cardiac myxomas, the most common primary cardiac tumors, are believed to originate from multipotent mesenchymal cells. Approximately 75% of myxomas occur within the left atrium, increasing the risk of systemic thromboembolic events. While typically benign, atrial myxomas can rarely metastasize to the brain, with fewer than 60 cases reported.

Genome-wide association studies of milk composition traits in indicine Badri cattle using ddRAD sequencing approach.

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) offer potential for discovering genomic regions that can be exploited to increase milk production. However, available GWAS and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) datasets are heavily skewed towards taurine breeds, which restricts their utility for genomic research in indicine cattle breeds. This study conducts a GWAS on the Badri breed of Indicine cattle to estimate variance components and identify significant variants associated with milk composition traits, utilizing double digest restriction-site associated DNA (ddRAD) sequencing data.

Reconfiguration of Intrinsic Depletion-Mode Characteristics of MoS Field-Effect Transistors to High-Performance Enhancement-Mode Operation Using an Argon Plasma-Induced p-Type Doping Technique.

The intrinsic n-type behavior and unavailability of the appropriate p-type doping method for MoS allows only n-type conduction with depletion mode (D-mode) characteristics and forbids the implementation of p-type field-effect transistors (FETs). The D-mode characteristic results in a high off-current (I) at zero gate bias, which limits the usage of MoS FETs for industry-scale (n-channel metal-oxide semiconductor) NMOS/(complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) CMOS-logic-based applications due to significant power dissipation. Both these issues, i.
