The propagation of neutrinos in long baselines experiments may be influenced by dissipation effects. Using Lindblad Master Equation we evolve neutrinos taking into account these dissipative effects. The MSW and the dissipative effects may…
We seek to identify genes involved in Parkinson's Disease (PD) by combining information across different experiment types. Each experiment, taken individually, may contain too little information to distinguish some important genes from…
As humanity pushes the boundaries of space exploration, human factors research becomes more important. Human factors encompass a broad spectrum of psychological, physiological, and ergonomic factors that affect human performance,…
Laboratory experiments have shown that cardiovascular diseases are positively correlated to the concentration of ambient air pollutants, such as SO2, NO2, PM10, etc. It has also been repeatedly reported in many countries that increased…
Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) help identify genetic variations in people with diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD), which are less common in those without the disease. Thus, GWAS data can be used to identify genetic variations…
In March 2008 anomalous behavior in spacecraft flybys of Earth was reported in Physical Review Letters, Volume 100, Issue 9, March 7, 2008, in an article entitled "Anomalous Orbital-Energy Changes Observed during Spacecraft Flybys of…
In recent years, sensors from smart consumer devices have shown great diagnostic potential in movement disorders. In this context, data modalities such as electronic questionnaires, hand movement and voice captures have successfully…
Speech disorders often occur at the early stage of Parkinson's disease (PD). The speech impairments could be indicators of the disorder for early diagnosis, while motor symptoms are not obvious. In this study, we constructed a new speech…
Neurodegeneration affects cortical gray matter leading to loss of cortical mantle volume. As a result of such volume loss, the geometrical arrangement of the regions on the cortical surface is expected to be altered in comparison to healthy…
Intense debate in the Neurology community before 2010 culminated in hypothetical models of Alzheimer's disease progression: a pathophysiological cascade of biomarkers, each dynamic for only a segment of the full disease timeline. Inspired…
The adverse effects of microgravity exposure on mammalian physiology during spaceflight necessitate a deep understanding of the underlying mechanisms to develop effective countermeasures. One such concern is muscle atrophy, which is partly…
Posturography is routinely used to qualitatively assess one of the cardinal symptoms of Parkinson's disease -- postural instability. While most measures of balance control are derived from displacement of the center of pressure there is…
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a chronic and progressive neurological disorder that results in rigidity, tremors and postural instability. There is no definite medical test to diagnose PD and diagnosis is mostly a clinical exercise. Although…
We investigate the effect of the jet's immediate surroundings on the non-thermal synchrotron emission and its polarization properties. The ambient medium is equipped with a turbulent magnetic field, which is compressed and amplified by the…
Medical data range from genomic sequences and retinal photographs to structured laboratory results and unstructured clinical narratives. Although these modalities appear disparate, many encode convergent information about a single…
A random motion on the Poincar\'e half-plane is studied. A particle runs on the geodesic lines changing direction at Poisson-paced times. The hyperbolic distance is analyzed, also in the case where returns to the starting point are…
Space radiation research has progressed rapidly in recent years, but there remain large uncertainties in predicting and extrapolating biological responses to humans. Exposure to cosmic radiation and Solar Particle Events may pose a critical…
Current diagnosis and prognosis for Parkinson's disease (PD) face formidable challenges due to the heterogeneous nature of the disease course, including that (i) the impairment severity varies hugely between patients, (ii) whether a symptom…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder, manifesting with motor and non-motor symptoms. Depressive symptoms are prevalent in PD, affecting up to 45% of patients. They are often underdiagnosed due to overlapping motor…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by notable motor and non-motor manifestations. The assessment tool known as the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) plays a crucial role in evaluating the…
