Electrical stimulation and block of peripheral nerves hold great promise for treatment of a range of disease and disorders, but promising results from preclinical studies often fail to translate to successful clinical therapies.Differences in neural anatomy across species require different electrodes and stimulation parameters to achieve equivalent
Transformation From Octree Grid to Unstructured Hybrid Grid
Unstructured grids can be used in numerical simulation to deal with arbitrary complex computational regions in a unified scheme, but it is difficult to generate the grid and control the quality.Tree-structured grid can be considered as a kind of grid between structured grid and unstructured one.At present, there are relatively mature methods to qui
Saddle avoidance of noise-induced transitions in multiscale systems
In ADULT MULTI multistable dynamical systems driven by weak Gaussian noise, transitions between competing states are often assumed to pass via a saddle on the separating basin boundary.By contrast, we show that timescale separation can cause saddle avoidance in nongradient systems.Using toy models from neuroscience and ecology, we study cases where
Burden of disease attributable to Risk Factors in Brazil: an analysis of national and subnational estimates from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease study
Abstract INTRODUCTION: Monitoring trends in risk factors (RFs) and the burden of diseases attributable to exposure to RFs is an important measure to identify public health advances and current inadequate efforts.Objective: Analyze the global burden of disease attributable to exposure RFs in Brazil, and its changes from 1990 to 2019, Audio Video Cab
