Published: August 1997

Multiple symmetrical lipomatosis is a rare disorder characterized by progressive anomalous deposition of fat typically located in the neck and shoulders. Magnetic resonance imaging allows exact definition of the abnormal fatty tissue and the involvement of deep structures. We describe the MR findings in two patients with the typical fat deposition in the neck and upper thorax which also presented unusual location of abnormal fat. One patient had laryngeal involvement with fatty infiltration of true and false cords. The other patient had inguinal and scrotal large deposition of fat.

Topological design of π electrons in zigzag-edged graphene nanoribbons (ZGNRs) leads to a wealth of magnetic quantum phenomena and exotic quantum phases. Symmetric ZGNRs typically show antiferromagnetically coupled spin-ordered edge states. Eliminating cross-edge magnetic coupling in ZGNRs not only enables the realization of a class of ferromagnetic quantum spin chains, enabling the exploration of quantum spin physics and entanglement of multiple qubits in the one-dimensional limit, but also establishes a long-sought-after carbon-based ferromagnetic transport channel, pivotal for ultimate scaling of GNR-based quantum electronics.

The Bimanual Observation of The Hands (BOTH): Development, reliability, and validity for stroke rehabilitation.

PLoS One

January 2025

Department of Occupational Therapy, School of Health Professions, Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv, Israel.

Importance: To efficiently perform bimanual daily tasks, bimanual coordination is needed. Bimanual coordination is the interaction between an individual's hands, which may be impaired post-stroke, however clinical and functional assessments are lacking and research is limited.

Objectives: To develop a valid and reliable observation tool to assess bimanual coordination of individuals post-stroke.

"Motion Capture Suit Sign" for Immunotherapy-Induced Inflammatory Arthritis on 99mTc-MDP Bone Scintigraphy.

Clin Nucl Med

February 2025

Division of Chest and Critical Care, Department of Internal Medicine, Dalin Tzu Chi Hospital, Buddhist Tzu Chi Medical Foundation, Chiayi, Taiwan.

We report the 99mTc-MDP bone scan of a 44-year-old man with a history of lung adenocarcinoma and recent multiple joint pain after completing pembrolizumab immunotherapy treatment. This interesting image of symmetric uptakes around bilateral joints throughout the skeleton resembles the ball sensors on a motion capture suit. Hence, we recommend naming this distinctive imaging appearance as the "motion capture suit" sign.

Over the past 30 years, researchers have developed X-ray-focusing telescopes by employing the principle of total reflection in thin metal films. The Wolter-I focusing mirror with variable-curvature surfaces demands high precision. However, there has been limited investigation into the removal mechanisms for variable-curvature X-ray mandrels, which are crucial for achieving the desired surface roughness and form accuracy, especially in reducing mid-spatial frequency (MSF) errors.
