Comparative Connectomics.
We introduce comparative connectomics, the quantitative study of cross-species commonalities and variations in brain network topology that aims to discover general principles of network architecture of nervous systems and the identification of species-specific features of brain connectivity. By comparing connectomes derived from simple to more advanced species, we identify two conserved themes ...
متن کاملNeed for comparative studies on injuries caused by traffic.
Traffic injuries are a serious public health problem around the world. More than half a million people are injured in traffic accidents every day, and 4000 people die every day in traffic. Efforts to address road safety globally are minimal in relation to all the human suffering. Traumatic injuries to the oral and maxillofacial region are often caused by traffic injuries and very often dental i...
متن کاملThe need for skin pen marking for sentinel lymph node biopsy: A comparative study
Introduction: There is a consensus in the literature that sentinel lymph node biopsy is the standard procedure for axillary staging in early stage (I and II) breast cancer patients. Usually during lymphoscintigraphy, the location of the sentinel lymph node is marked on the skin by an indelible ink. In this study we evaluated this issue in our patients. Methods: 40 ...
متن کاملComparative effectiveness research: what kind of studies do we need?
Comparative effectiveness research (CER) is increasingly popular, yet discussions of its conduct and consequences often overlook the extensive history of comparing different therapeutic options in patient-oriented research. In particular, research in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has included a decades-long focus on generating information that can enhance medical decision making and i...
متن کاملMapping Circuits beyond the Models: Integrating Connectomics and Comparative Neuroscience
The brain has been shaped by evolution, and its connectome reflects that history. Comparative neuroscience research, framed by evolutionary relationships, is key to interpreting connectome organization and can address fundamental circuit questions that are not accessible through single-species connectomics efforts.
