Timing abilities are often measured by having participants tap their finger along with a metronome and presenting tap-triggered auditory feedback. These experiments predominantly use electronic percussion pads combined with software... more
We reviewed 45 patients with a deletion of the long arm of chromosome 4. Forty-one were previous reports (25 terminal deletions and 16 interstitial deletions) and 4 are new cases with terminal deletions. Of the 29 patients with terminal... more
Motor improvements in chronic stroke recovery accrue from coupled protocols of bilateral movements and active neuromuscular stimulation. This experiment investigated coupled protocols and within-limb transfer between distal and proximal... more
Touch (or tactile) sensors are gaining renewed interest as the level of sophistication in the application of minimum invasive surgery and humanoid robots increases. The spatial resolution of current large-area (greater than 1 cm 2 )... more
Between 20% and 60% of the population of most countries are infected with the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii. Subjects with clinically asymptomatic life-long latent toxoplasmosis differ from those who are Toxoplasma free in several... more
The biomechanics of skin and underlying tissues plays a fundamental role in the human sense of touch. It governs the mechanics of contact between the skin and an object, the transmission of the mechanical signals through the skin, and... more
We are reporting two rare cases of subcutaneous lipoma. One was present over the dorsal aspect of the right index finger, and another was over the volar aspect of the middle finger. In first case, it was extending proximally from the... more
Abstract--With a new oscillometric method equipped with a transmittance infrared photoelectric plethysmograph, indirect systolic and mean arterial pressures were measured in 12 normotensive and hypertensive subjects with systolic and mean... more
This study was conducted at the Integrated Sustainable Agri-Techno Demo Farm with a duration of 308 days. This study aimed to determine the growth and yield performance of banana (Musa acuminata L.) as affected by different farm manures.... more
Finger blood volume is commonly determined from measurement of infra-red (IR) light transmittance using the Lambert-Beer law of light absorption derived for use in non-scattering media, even when such transmission involves light scatter... more
Pulse oximeters are known to be inaccurate in the presence of elevated concentrations of carboxyhemoglobin and methemoglobin. This paper attempts to alleviate some of the confusion that exists between fractional and functional saturation,... more
