Possible mechanisms to improve sleep spindles via closed loop stimulation during slow wave sleep: A computational study.

Sleep spindles are one of the prominent EEG oscillatory rhythms of non-rapid eye movement sleep. In the memory consolidation, these oscillations have an important role in the processes of long-term potentiation and synaptic plasticity. Moreover, the activity (spindle density and/or sigma power) of spindles has a linear association with learning performance in different paradigms.

Existence of dual solution for MHD boundary layer flow over a stretching/shrinking surface in the presence of thermal radiation and porous media: KKL nanofluid model.

Present study is dedicated to analyze the closed form solution of nanofluid flow over a stretching/shrinking sheet with dual availability. Flow is developed through two-dimensional boundary layer theory. Appropriate tensor is used to generate the continuity, energy, and momentum equations.

The Outcome of Arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Low-Demand, Non-athletic Patients Following a Home-Based Rehabilitation Protocol.

Background: Arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a common orthopedic procedure. Most of the literature is on high-demand athletic patients, with little information about the outcomes of low-demand patients. Therefore, we aim to assess the outcomes of non-athletic patients following home-based rehabilitation.

Comparison between reliability of Schatzker's classification and CT based four quadrant classification for tibial plateau fractures.

Introduction: Conventionally used Schatzker and AO/OTA classification, do not identify posterior column injuries in tibial plateau fractures. CT based Four quadrant classification, has been proposed to identify fractures of tibial plateau and help in surgical planning of treatment. However, to assess its validity, there is scanty literature about its reliability (inter and intra-observer variation) and comparison of its reliability with that of the more popular Schatzker classification in classifying tibial plateau fracture.

Probiotics ( and NMCC-14) Ameliorate Stress Behavior in Mice by Increasing Monoamine Levels and mRNA Expression of Dopamine Receptors (D and D) and Synaptophysin.

Stress is a physiological consequence of the body to adversity. The gut-brain axis and probiotics are gaining interest to provide better treatment for stress and other neurological disorders. Probiotic ( NMCC-14 and , 10 colony-forming unit/day/animal, per oral) effects were investigated in acute (up to day 7) and subacute (days 8-14) restraint-stressed and normal mice through behavioral paradigms (elevated plus maze: EPM, light dark box/dark light box: LDB, and open field test: OFT).
