Much brain imaging work has underscored the functional connections among the inferior frontal gyrus (IFG; articulation), supramarginal gyrus (SMG; letter-sound correspondence), superior temporal gyrus (STG; sound) and fusiform gyrus (FFG; print) during basic reading processes. This reading network supports and coordinates the complex processes that contribute to successful reading. In line with the Hebbian notion that 'neurons that fire together, wire together' we examined cortical thickness among these regions and the extent to which these regions showed structural relationships in average and impaired readers.

We aimed to determine how a bout of resistance or aerobic exercise impacts physiological responses and performance during firefighting occupational tasks. Thirty-two non-firefighters completed two baseline assessments and three trials: resistance exercise (RE), aerobic exercise (AE), or a rested control (CON). Trials were followed by an occupational task assessment (OTA; four rounds of 10 deadlifts (38.

Objectives: This study evaluated the phase composition, phase transformation behaviour, and mechanical properties of five heat-treated NiTi instruments.
Methods: ProTaper NEXT (M-wire, PTN), ProTaper Gold (Gold-wire, PTG), One Curve (C-wire, OC), EdgeTaper Platinum (Fire-wire, ETP), NeoNiTi (electrical discharge machining-wire, NNA), and ProTaper Universal (conventional wire, PTU, control) with #25-tip size were tested (n = 12/group) for cyclic fatigue resistance (number of cycles to failure; NCF) and torsional resistance (angle of rotation to fracture and maximum torque at fracture [ultimate torsional strength]). The geometry and fracture surfaces of the tested instruments were examined by scanning electron microscopy.

Part II of this two-part article investigates the impact of thermocouple insulation failure on temperature measurement data in forensic fire-death scenarios. Two different models of glass fiber-insulated thermocouple wires (GG-K-24-SLE and HH-K-24 from Omega Engineering) were passed through a ceramic kiln at temperatures up to 1093°C to measure an ice bath at a constant 0°C. In a separate experiment, the same two models of thermocouple wire plus a BLMI-XL-K-18U-120 mineral-insulated metal-sheathed thermocouple probe were passed through a wood pallet fire to measure an ice bath.
