results in the control group, barthel and fugl-meyer indices showed significant improvement (p = 0.01, p = 0.00), while in the experimental group, significant improvement in barthel and fugl-meyer indices and dynamometers has been observed (p = 0.01, p = 0.00, p = 0.007). conclusions rtms can improve hand muscle force and functions of patients with chronic hemiplegia, while conventional treatme...

Different spring and early summer North Atlantic sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) have been shown to precede recent European heatwaves (EuSHWs). So far, the limited number of observed events associated with several physical mechanisms has prevented a robust identification SSTAs as precursors. Here, we extend beyond previous studies by combining 100 historical simulations (1850–2005) MP...

introduction: working memory plays a critical role in cognitive processes which are central to our daily life. neuroimaging studies have shown that one of the most important areas corresponding to the working memory is the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlfpc). this study was aimed to assess whether bilateral modulation of the dlpfc using a noninvasive brain stimulation, namely transcranial di...

The use of deep brain stimulation in psychiatric disorders has received great interest owing to the small risk of the operation, the reversible nature of the technique, and the possibility of optimizing treatment postoperatively. Currently deep brain stimulation in psychiatry is investigated for obsessive-compulsive disorder, Gilles de la Tourette’s syndrome and major depression. This presentat...

Introduction: For the assessment of myocardial motion or blood flow, direct measurements of regional acceleration might provide valuable information regarding flow changes or tissue function and structure. However, there is only one report of the implementation of a direct acceleration encoding phase contrast (PC) technique based on an acceleration encoded scan and an acceleration compensated s...

the effect of electrical currents by different modalities on wound healing has been experimented. in this study a survey of the literature shows different results, and the mechanisms of action have not been elucidated for certain. the aim of this study was to compare the results obtained from low voltage-square wave stimulation of different frequencies. results show that the healing period for ...
