Alterations of white matter tracts and topological properties of structural networks in hemifacial spasm
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "NMR in Biomedicine"
DOI: 10.1002/nbm.4756
Abstract: Hemifacial spasm (HFS) is characterized by involuntary and paroxysmal muscle contractions on the hemiface. It is generally believed that HFS is caused by neurovascular compression at the root exit zone of the facial nerve. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s40815-018-0578-0
Abstract: The hesitant fuzzy set (HFS) is very significant in dealing with the multi-criteria decision-making problems when the decision makers have hesitancy in providing their assessments. However, with the deepening of the research, it may lose… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s40948-024-00889-0
Abstract: Vertical natural fractures (NFs) are prevalent in low-permeability sandstone reservoirs. Presently, the impact of NFs on the extension of hydraulic fractures (HFs) remains partially unveiled, which restricts the scientific development of strategies for low-permeability, fractured… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2017.12.028
Abstract: In the striatum, long term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD) of glutamatergic transmission are believed to underlie motor learning and are impaired in animal models of Parkinson's disease. High frequency stimulation (HFS) is often… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.schres.2017.03.016
Abstract: Neuroplasticity may be an important treatment target to improve the cognitive deficits in schizophrenia (SZ). Yet, it is poorly understood and difficult to assess. Recently, a visual high-frequency stimulation (HFS) paradigm that potentiates electroencephalography (EEG)-based… read more here.
