In this study, a computational mapping technique was used to examine the three-dimensional profile of the lateral ventricles in autism. T1-weighted three-dimensional magnetic resonance images of the brain were acquired from 20 males with autism (age: 10.1+/-3.5 years) and 22 male control subjects (age: 10.7+/-2.5 years). The lateral ventricles were delineated manually and ventricular volumes we...

Digital maps have become a part of our everyday lives as they are integrated into a wide range of map-based services like traffic estimation, navigation systems, and many more. These services still have a huge opportunity for enhancements with semantically richer maps to support a large class of new services. In this demo, we demonstrate the MAP++ crowd-sensing system for map semantics identifi...

Radial glia are a polarized cell type that in most neural regions appear only transiently during development. They have long been recognized as glia or glial progenitors that support neuronal migration. Recent evidence indicates that radial glia also give rise to neurons and appear to be a major population of dividing precursor cells in the embryonic cortical ventricular zone. Radial glia exten...

Radial nerve innervation to the brachialis muscle has been studied previously by different authors in Caucasian, Chinese, and Thai population. Present study was aimed to describe the radial nerve and musculocutaneous nerve contribution to the brachialis muscle and to elucidate racial differences between Indian and other populations. Hundred-forty superior extremities of 70 embalmed cadavers inc...

The question whether a global freeze-out occurs in heavy-ion collisions below and up to energies of a few AGeV and to which extent this phenomenon is embedded into a collective radial expansion has been studied by various experiments [1, 2, 3]. Measurements performed at BEVALAC [1] indicate that the emission of light particles (p, d, t, He, α) around mid-rapidity in Au+Au collisions at 1 AGeV i...

To gain further insights into the role of T lymphocytes in immune responses against bladder tumors, we developed a method that monitors the presence of functional antigen-specific T cells in the urine of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer patients. As relatively few immune cells can usually be recovered from urine, we examined different isolation/amplification protocols and took advantage of pa...

Microstructure imaging combines tailored diffusion MRI acquisition protocols with a mathematical model to give insights into subvoxel tissue features. The is typically fit voxel-by-voxel the image least squares minimisation voxelwise maps of parameters relating microstructural features, such as diffusivities and compartment fractions. However, this fitting approach susceptible noise, which can ...

This study focuses on the structural picture interpretation of Buzurgan oil field in Maysan province southern Iraq. Using 2D seismic data, Synthetic traces are created by selecting reflectors section using Petrel software and well (BU-1) data currently available. The represented Paleocene to middle Miocene, which L-Fars-Kirkuk-Jaddala-Aaliji. A thrust fault that solely impacts L-Fars formation ...
