To address this issue, this study focused on the effect of guidance cues by employing micropatterned polymeric films to influence the alignment, morphology and transdifferentiation of bone marrow-derived rat mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) towards a Schwann cell-like fate.
A program with six meetings with PT (start-up program) has already been proven effective [ 15], however, the hypothesized effects of additional guidance (supervised program; 26 34 meetings with PT) remained to be shown.
Applying the taxonomy, we discuss existing empirical results, identify effects of different guidance design features, and propose opportunities for future research.
From the investigation of traffic congestion of the metro line in Tokyo, we will discuss the effects of passenger guidance and the importance of the marginal carrying capacity of each train in the regulation strategy.
The main objective of this study was to determine the interactive effects of contact guidance and electrical field stimulation on elongation and orientation of fibroblasts and cardiomyocytes, major cell populations of the myocardium.
On the basis of 14 randomized trials, we found a moderate quality of evidence supporting the beneficial effects of transabdominal guidance during embryo transfer compared with conventional clinical touch in clinical pregnancy and ongoing or live birth rates.
In the present study, a multiple-baseline-across-participants design was used to assess the effects of graduated guidance, scripts, and script fading to teach four adolescents with autism in a simulated vocational setting to approach an instructor, describe a work-related problem, and request assistance.
Therefore, when investigating the effects of axon guidance cues on blood vessels or lymphatic endothelium, it is essential to distinguish a direct effect on endothelial cells from the potential influence on axonal projections, which may subsequently affect the endothelial cells.
Members of this first group (6) also performed a minimum of 10 trials under each one of 6 different contexts listed below to probe the effects of sensory guidance on movement variability.
