Abstract:

In our everyday life we carry out a multitude of activities in parallel without focusing our attention explicitly on them. We drink a cup of tea while reading a book, we signal a colleague passing by with a hand gesture, that we are concentrated right now and that he should wait one moment, or we walk a few steps backwards while taking photos. Many of these interactions - like drinking, sending signals via gestures or walking - are rather complex by themselves. By means of learning and training, however, these interactions become part of our routines and habits and therefore only consume littl

The aim of this dissertation is not only to assess the importance and complexities of conflicts in the periphery of China, but also about the necessity for the neighbours to coexist with a more powerful China.

Abstract:

Peripheral neuropathy includes a wide range of diseases affecting millions around the world, and many of these diseases have unknown etiology. Peripheral neuropathy in diabetes represents a large proportion of peripheral neuropathies. Nerve damage can also be caused by trauma. Peripheral neuropathies are a significant clinical problem and efficient treatments are largely lacking. In the case of a transected nerve, different methods have been used to repair or reconstruct the nerve, including the use of nerve conduits, but functional recovery is usually poor.

Abstract:

Aberrations affect image quality of the eye away from the line of sight as well as along it. High amounts of lower order aberrations are found in the peripheral visual field and higher order aberrations change away from the centre of the visual field. Peripheral resolution is poorer than that in central vision, but peripheral vision is important for movement and detection tasks (for example driving) which are adversely affected by poor peripheral image quality. Any physiological process or intervention that affects axial image quality will affect peripheral image quality as well. The aim of th

Abstract:

Introduction. The problem of a structure of peripheral nerves is one of the scientific directions in anatomy. The attention of scientists was drawn to this problem from 1912-1913 when doctrines about constancy of topography of bunches of nervous fibers in a nerve trunk moved forward. Further researches on a problem of a structure of peripheral nerves were directed to detection of regularities of the course of nervous conductors.

Abstract:

Failing eyesight causes a dramatic change in life. The aim of this project is to help people with large central visual field loss to better utilize their remaining vision. Central visual field loss means that the person has to rely on peripheral vision since the direct vision is lost, often due to a dysfunctional macula. In these cases, a full restoration of vision would require replacement or repair of the damaged retinal tissue, which is not yet possible. Instead, the present study seeks to improve peripheral vision by enhancing the image quality on the remaining functional part of the retin

Abstract:

The recognition accuracy of emotion in faces varies depending on the discrete emotion being expressed and the location of the stimulus. More specifically, emotion detection performance declines as facial stimuli are presented further out in the periphery. Interestingly, this is not always true for faces depicting happy emotional expressions, which can be associated with maintained levels of detection. The current study examined neurophysiological responses to emotional face discrimination in the periphery. Two event-related potentials (ERPs) that can be sensitive to the perception of emotion i

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) affects 8 to 10 million Americans, and the incidence of PAD is expected to increase as the population ages. A high percentage of the PAD is undiagnosed prior to the onset of a serious cardiovascular event; therefore, the inability to screen and diagnose for PAD in the early stages could hinder efforts to decrease adverse consequences of cardiovascular disease. Individuals with PAD have a 3 to 5 times increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality when compared to people without PAD.

This study evaluated appropriateness of testing methods used to measure peripheral optics and visual performance. Peripheral optics measurements depended on the instrument used to measure them.

The nature of targets, in terms of size and abrupt or gradual loss of contrast near the edge, affected peripheral detection. To measure peripheral contrast detection accur

Background: Lipid abnormalities are a common feature of the nephrotic syndrome that is also characterised by oedema, hypoalbuminaemia, proteinuria, and hypercoagulability.

The presence of proteinuria is a prognostic indicator for the progression of renal disease, but its possible contribution as a cardiovascular risk factor in patients with nephrotic syndrome is not known.

Non-invasive methods have been developed to induce plastic changes in the sensorimotor cortex. These rely on stimulating pairs of afferent nerves. By associative stimulation (AS) of two afferent nerves, excitability changes in the motor cortex occur as indicated by studies reporting changes in motor evoked potentials (MEPs) elicited by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Repetitive stimulation of those nerves has a potential in rehabilitation and treatment of neurological disorders like stroke or spinal cord injury.

Chronic neuropathic pain, characterised by allodynia (perception of innocuous stimuli as painful) and hyperalgesia (facilitated responses to painful stimuli), is poorly understood and is usually resistant to classical analgesics. Such abnormal pain phenomena can be associated with human demyelinating conditions such as Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. Using mouse models of peripheral nerve demyelination, we have provided evidence for the consequent establishment of neuropathic pain and investigated possible underlying mechanisms.

A thorough understanding of the mechanisms driving this condition is required to adequately treat, and ideally cure, this condition.

Their propensity to form heteromeric complexes as well as the functional redundancy they exhibit makes them difficult to study.
