Perivascular epithelioid cell neoplasm/tumor (PEComa) was a relatively uncommon lesion of mesenchymal origin characterized by perivascular epithelioid cells with distinctive histological and immunohistochemical features. The occurrence in the sacral ligament was exceptional rare. Cytokeratin and epithelial membrane antigen (EMA) were considered as commonly useful epithelial markers to distingui...

Adding cognitive bias modification (CBM) to treatment as usual for alcohol use disorders has been found reduce relapse rates. However, CBM not yielded effects a stand-alone intervention. One possible reason may be that this is due being underpinned by inferential rather than associative mental mechanisms. This change in perspective led proposed improved version of CBM: Inference-based ABC train...

A 10-year-old girl presented with recurrent absence spells of 6 years’ duration. Video-EEG revealed absences with rhythmic unilateral shoulder jerks, classic of epilepsy with myoclonic absences (EMA) (videos 1 and 2 on the Neurology Web site at www.neurology.org; figure). The average age at onset is 7 years.1 EMA may be associated with trisomy 12p and Angelman syndrome.2 It has a variable progn...

BACKGROUND Alcohol and illicit drug use is more prevalent among men who have sex with men (MSM) compared to the general population and has been linked to HIV transmission in this population. Research assessing individual patterns of substance use often utilizes questionnaires or interviews that rely on retrospective self-reported information, which can be subject to recall bias. Ecological mome...

Kinematic articulatory data are important for researches of speech production, articulatory speech synthesis, robust speech recognition, and speech inversion. Electromagnetic Articulograph (EMA) is a widely used instrument for collecting kinematic articulatory data. However, in EMA experiment, one or more coils attached to articulators are possible to be mistracked due to various reasons. To ma...

In this study the measurement accuracy of the 3D EMA (Electromagnetic Articulograhy) system Carstens AG500 was evaluated using an optical motion capture system (Vicon). A custom-built container fixed the positions of the EMA sensors and the optical markers and a series of movements of the container within the EMA measurement field was recorded. The results show that (a) the very small error of ...

A commercial electromechanical actuator (EMA) is to be dynamically tested with predetermined stroke and load profiles for transient thermal and electric power behavior to validate a numerical model used for aerospace applications. The EMA will follow the stroke profile representative of a real aircraft mission duty cycle. A hydraulic press will exert a corresponding load profile onto the EMA. S...

BACKGROUND Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and its treatment significantly affect health-related quality of life (HRQOL). Our objectives were to evaluate and compare patient-reported outcome (PRO) claims granted by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medicines Agency (EMA) for 5 recently approved mCRPC treatments and to examine key characteristics, develo...
