Unlabelled: One common gait issue associated with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) is freezing of gait (FoG). FoG impacts approximately half of people with PD and negatively impacts quality of life. Studies have suggested that anxiety may contribute to FoG.

Inspired by nature's use of CNCs to enhance rigidity and mechanical strength in cellulosic materials, we explored similar principles to improve the properties of acrylate water-based coatings. The cCNCs, loaded at 0.

- - The study investigates the role of pathological dural invasion (pathDI) as a predictor for neck metastases and recurrence in patients with olfactory neuroblastoma (ONB), using data from a multicenter database of ONB cases collected between 2005 and 2021.
- - Among the 258 patients reviewed, those with pathDI had a significantly lower 10-year neck recurrence-free survival (61.8%) compared to those without it (85.7%), indicating a strong negative impact of pathDI on prognosis.
- - The analysis revealed that pathDI is a significant predictor of neck recurrence and recurrence at other sites, suggesting that future research could lead to changes in treatment strategies for patients with pathDI. *
Traumatic optic neuropathy (TON) consists of damage to the optic nerve following head injury and affects about 0.5-5% of patients with closed head injuries. It is characterized by a sudden decrease in visual acuity and/or visual field loss.

As a solid, -NC is a Z-dimer; in organic solvent, the monomer is favored; and in water, dimers are favored. A supramolecular assembly of -NC is observed as a separate species by NMR in water, shown to be a novel nanometer-sized aggregate containing ∼2000 molecules.
