The Identification of High-pitched Sung Vowels in Sense and Nonsense Words by Professional Singers and Untrained Listeners
High-pitched sung vowels may be considered phonetically "underspecified" because of (i) the tuning of the F1 to the f0 accompanying pitch raising and (ii) the wide harmonic spacing of the voice source resulting in the undersampling of the vocal tract transfer function. Therefore, sung vowel intelligibility...

Approximately 80% of patients with subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) have TSH ≤ 10 mIU/L.1 Many of these subjects are treated with levothyroxine (L-T4) because they have anti-thyroperoxidase antibodies (TPOAb), goiter, high cardiovascular risk, dyslipidemia, depression, infertility, and symptoms of hypothyroidism....

Spinal Cord Stimulation Modulates Gene Expression in the Spinal Cord of an Animal Model of Peripheral Nerve Injury.
Background and Objectives: Previously, we found that application of pulsed radiofrequency to a peripheral nerve injury induces changes in key genes regulating nociception concurrent with alleviation of paw sensitivity in an animal model. In the current study, we evaluated such genes after applying spinal...

Spinal Cord Stimulation for Treatment of Neuropathic Pain Associated With Erythromelalgia.
Objective: Erythromelalgia is a rare disorder associated with neuropathic pain that commonly affects the lower extremities. This pain is often refractory to multimodal treatment. Both pharmacologic management and interventional anesthetic blocks have been used with varying and often limited success....

Subdural Hematoma Associated With Labor Epidural Analgesia: A Case Series.
Objective: This report aimed to describe the characteristics and impact of subdural hematoma (SDH) after labor epidural analgesia. Case Reports: Eleven obstetric patients had SDHs associated with the use of labor epidural analgesia over 7 years at a tertiary care hospital. Ten of 11 patients had signs...

Enhanced Structural Stability and Photo Responsiveness of CH3NH3SnI3 Perovskite via Pressure-Induced Amorphization and Recrystallization
An organic–inorganic halide CH3NH3SnI3 perovskite with significantly improved structural stability is obtained via pressure-induced amorphization and recrystallization. In situ high-pressure resistance measurements reveal an increased electrical conductivity by 300% in the pressure-treated perovskite....

Binding Free Energy Calculations on E-Selectin complexes with sLex oligosaccharide analogs
Abstract Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and binding free energy calculations were employed to examine the interaction between E-selectin and six structurally-related oligosaccharides including the physiological ligand sialyl Lewis x (sLex). MD simulations revealed that sLex and its mimics share...
