BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Car seat tolerance screening (CSTS) is a common predischarge assessment of neonates. Almost half of nurseries and NICUs have low birth weight (LBW, <2.5 kg) as an inclusion criterion, regardless of birth gestational age (GA). Little is known about the epidemiology of CSTS in this cohort. The objective of this study was to identify incidence and risk factors for CSTS fai...

OBJECTIVE The difference in the widest distance between corticospinal tracts (CST) on diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) in stroke patients with hydrocephalus was investigated retrospectively. METHODS Distances were measured on an axial slice of the corona radiata, which provided the widest distance between CSTs. Two distances were measured, the absolute distance - the distance between the m...

OBJECTIVE We have used diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) for the evaluation of the somatotopic organization of corticospinal tracts (CSTs) in the posterior limb of the internal capsule (PLIC) and cerebral peduncle (CP). MATERIALS AND METHODS We imaged the brains of nine healthy right-handed subjects. We used a spin-echo echo-planar imaging (EPI) sequence with 12 diffusion-sensitized directi...

Multiple synaptic adhesion molecules govern synapse formation. Here, we propose calsyntenin-3/alcadein-β as a synapse organizer that specifically induces presynaptic differentiation in heterologous synapse-formation assays. Calsyntenin-3 (CST-3) is highly expressed during various postnatal periods of mouse brain development. The simultaneous knockdown of all three CSTs, but not CST-3 alone, dec...

Example-Based Machine Translation (EBMT) for low resource language, like Bengali, has low-coverage issues, due to the lack of parallel corpus. In this paper, we propose an EBMT for low resource language, using chunk-string templates (CSTs) and translating unknown words. CSTs consist of a chunk in source-language, a string in target-language, and word alignment information. CSTs are prepared aut...

Dynamic behavior of ground supported cylindrical storage tanks (CST) is of crucial importance because of its applications in industrial complexes. Seismic behavior of tanks is greatly affected by the height to diameter ratio, fluid height and fluid type. Five CSTs with different height to diameter ratios, three CSTs with the same height and diameters but various fluid heights and one CST with t...

Wildlife conservation and research benefits enormously from automated interconnected monitoring tools. Some of these tools, such as drones, remote cameras, social media, can collect data on humans, either accidentally or deliberately. They therefore be thought surveillance technologies (CSTs). There is increasing evidence that CSTs, the they yield, have both positive negative impacts people, ra...

PURPOSE Waveguide elastography (WGE) combines magnetic resonance elastography (MRE), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and anisotropic inversions for a determination of the elastic properties of white matter. Previously, the method evaluated the anisotropic elastic properties of the corticospinal tracts (CSTs) of healthy volunteers. Here, the sensitivity of WGE is tested for the detection of path...

The five community state types (CSTs) first identified by Ravel et al. (2011) offered a powerful scheme to classify the states of human vaginal microbial communities (HVMC). The classification is a significant advance because it devised an effective handle to deal with the enormous inter-subject heterogeneity and/or intra-subject temporal variability, the quantification of which is extremely di...
