Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a neurosurgical technique that consists of continuous delivery of electrical pulses through chronically implanted electrodes connected to a neurostimulator, programmable in amplitude, pulse width, frequency, and stimulation channel.
Some cases where infection was reintroduced in this study may have been connected to chronically infected breeding-only herds.
This would require subcutaneous, chronically implanted and, ideally, telemetrically connected electrodes; however, possible compromise of the reflex by anaesthetic agents could thereby be avoided and this is worth investigating in the future.
The worsening of patient outcome and malignant progression of tumor cells seem to be connected to microenvironmental changes evoked by chronically activated complement.
But Obama pushed back at claims by veterans groups that delays in treating patients at a VA hospital in Phoenix had contributed to 40 deaths, saying the inspector general had found many of these were chronically ill patients whose deaths may not have been connected to the treatment delay.
These cannulae were each connected to a slow delivery osmotic minipump that chronically infused mecamylamine 100 μg/side/day (n=9) or vehicle (aCSF) for controls (n=15) for a period of 4 weeks.
Rats, chronically provided with cortical EEG electrodes and nuchal EMG electrodes, were connected to a swivel, which allowed free movement in their recording cage.
Vascular endothelial growth factors are important mediators for neovascularization of chronically ischemic adult heart, but their elevated values have also been connected with acute ischemia.
Candidate genes identified through microarray analysis highlight those that are highly differentially or chronically expressed, whereas those identified through network analysis instead feature genes that are highly connected.
Investigations of QS functionality and connected phenotypes expressed by mucoid and non-mucoid isolates that were obtained from the chronically infected patients, showed that a significantly higher proportion of mucoid isolates produced C4-HSL compared to their non-mucoid counterparts (χ2 test, p = 0.02).
