AI Article Synopsis
- Neuroscience advancements are aiding social sciences like law by providing insights into the neurological aspects of human free will, which is crucial for understanding criminal responsibility.
- The study specifically explores the factors that lead to a loss of free will in the context of the Iranian criminal justice system, looking at how neurolaw can clarify these issues.
- Key causes identified include mental disorders, coercion, drunkenness, somnambulism, and error, which can be evaluated using EEG and fMRI, though each method has its own limitations.
Article Abstract
Today, with the development of neuroscience and the discovery of new secrets of the brain, the social sciences, including law, have made significant progress with the help of new findings in this science. One of the significant applications of neuroscience in modern criminal law is the explanation of the neurological dimensions of human free will, which in addition to creating a profound and scientific approach to the definition of this important element of criminal responsibility, can help ascertain the loss of free will causes. To this end, the present study is an attempt to answer this question in the context of the Iranian criminal justice system: What are the core causes of the loss of free will from the perspective of neurolaw? The paper strives to take an appropriate step toward the development of criminal justice. In this study, we found that mental disorders, coercion, drunkenness, somnambulism, and error are the core causes that can be assessed in particular ways using EEG and fMRI techniques, however, each with limitations.

Background: Since the first description of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) as clinicopathologic syndrome three decades ago, considerable progress has been made to standardize and validate instruments to assess symptom severity, quality of life, endoscopic, and histologic activity for the purpose of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies. Standardized assessment of EoE activity is crucial to be able to compare the results of therapeutic interventions and bring much needed therapies to patients. This review focuses on outcome assessment of disease activity in adults with EoE.

Introduction: Arterialized venous flap, like any other flap, will undergo an ischemic reperfusion injury during its transfer process. To overcome this, ischemic preconditioning can be done to provide protection and enhanced flap survival. One of the reliable parameters of flap survival is its temperature.

For individuals with Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD and BMD, respectively), transitioning to adulthood presents significant challenges. Although considerable attention has been given to facilitating medical transitions due to the complexity of these conditions, less focus has been placed on other aspects of the transition, such as achieving independence. This study assessed the transition needs of people with DMD or BMD, exploring various domains including health, education, employment, living arrangements, transportation, daily activities, and independent personal life.
