In a recent psychophysiological study using simultaneous electroencephalography/functional magnetic resonance imaging (EEG/fMRI) to investigate pain processing in the human brain we also sought to evaluate the usefulness of recording galvanic skin response (GSR)/electrodermal activity (EDA) during the course of the experiment. Our questions/objectives were a) is it possible to obtain single-tri...

There are numerous studies which suggest that perhaps music is truly the language of emotions. Music seems to have an almost willful, evasive quality, defying simple explanation, and indeed requires deeper neurophysiological investigations to gain a better understanding. The current study makes an attempt in that direction to explore the effect of context on music perception. To investigate the...

In recent papers Caldwell, Bibby and Brown (2002, 2003) (hereafter referred to as CBB) have introduced a new and elegant method for analysing magnetotelluric (MT) data which can be applied directly to galvanically distorted data in a regional conductivity structure of any dimension. It is therefore more general and direct than previous methods (e.g. Bahr, 1988; Groom and Bailey, 1989; Smith, 19...

A facile aqueous synthesis method for the preparation of Au nanoparticle clusters by the controlled galvanic replacement of Ag nanoparticles with Au precursors is described. The prepared clusters showed both significantly enhanced surface-enhanced Raman scattering activity and stability.

Herein, we demonstrate that galvanic replacement reaction over aligned Ag nanowire arrays can be employed as a simple and powerful cold-welding technique for large-scale fabrication of highly ordered Au nanochannel monolayers.

INTRODUCTION: Cannulated screws, along with guide wires, are commonly used for a variety of orthopedic indications. Typically they are used for fractures in cancellous regions. Breakage or bending deformation of the guide wire is a clinical concern. Therefore it would be advantageous to use Co-Cr alloys such as MP35N and L605 in these applications as the occurrence of breakages and bendings wou...

The aim of the present study is to analyze the electrochemical behavior of five different dental alloys: two cobalt-chromium alloys (CoCr and CoCr-c), one nickel-chromium-titanium alloy (NiCrTi), one gold-palladium alloy (Au), and one titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V), and the galvanic effect when they are coupled to titanium implants (TiG2). It was carried out by electrochemical techniques (open circui...

INTRODUCTION Based on the knowledge that traumatic brainstem damage often leads to alteration in brainstem functions, including the vestibulo-ocular reflex, the present study is designed to determine whether prediction of outcome in the early phase after severe traumatic brain injury is possible by means of vestibulo-ocular monitoring. METHODS Vestibulo-ocular monitoring is based on video-ocu...

In this paper, we discuss findings from a study that used panoramic video-based virtual environments (PVVEs) to induce self-reported anger. The study assessed "immersiveness" and physiological correlates of anger arousal (i.e., heart rate, blood pressure, galvanic skin response [GSR], respiration, and skin temperature). Results indicate that over time, panoramic video-based virtual scenarios ca...
