Brain activity associated with voluntary muscle relaxation was examined by applying event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technique, which enables us to observe change of fMRI signals associated with a single motor trial. The subject voluntarily relaxed or contracted the right upper limb muscles. Each motor mode had two conditions; one required joint movement, and the other...

A fern from the French Pyrenees-×Cystocarpium roskamianum-is a recently formed intergeneric hybrid between parental lineages that diverged from each other approximately 60 million years ago (mya; 95% highest posterior density: 40.2-76.2 mya). This is an extraordinarily deep hybridization event, roughly akin to an elephant hybridizing with a manatee or a human with a lemur. In the context of oth...

The purpose of this study was to assess the reliability of a method for testing peak torque and work output of the knee extensor muscle during concentric and eccentric loading at three velocities of exercise (60 degrees, 120 degrees, and 180 degrees/sec). Fourteen healthy men (23-32 years of age) performed exercises of the quadriceps femoris muscles during concentric and eccentric loading, with...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of audiovisual distraction technique with video eyewear and computerized delivery system-intrasulcular (CDS-IS) during the application of local anesthetic in phobic pediatric patients undergoing pulp therapy of primary molars. MATERIALS AND METHODS This randomized, crossover clinical study includes 60 children, aged between 4 and...
