The nociceptive flexion reflex paradigm is widely used to investigate modulation of nociception and represents a reliable objective measure of the functional activation of the nociceptive network.
Temporal summation of the nociceptive flexion reflex (RT-TS), which represents a reliable objective measure of the functional activity of the nociceptive system in the spinal cord, was also evaluated using train of 5 stimuli at a frequency of 2 Hz.
One may postulate that the objective assessment of the functional status of a patient is accessible using the KPS.
For inclusion in the review, studies had to cite in the objectives the characterization of the functional status of patients with bvFTD, using a previously validated functional assessment instrument.
Regarding the optimization of the objective function, the functional, multi-dimensional, static, constraint, continuous, single-objective, and meta-heuristic optimizations were applied.
The objective of the present functional resonance imaging (fMRI) study was to map within prefrontal cortex locales that are selectively load sensitive, delay sensitive, or both.
The model has two objectives: maximizing the functional performance of the CBSS and maximizing the cohesion and minimizing the coupling of software modules.
Objectives: To determine the functional outcomes of liver transplant patients with acute rehabilitation and to compare outcomes with those of stroke patients.
11 Multiple papers confirm that such testing of the MOC-induced effect provides a simple, objective method that allows assessment of the functional status of the MOC and cochlear integration.
The training replaced the conventional physical therapy program, when this was consistent with the objectives of the strength training (improvement of functional abilities by increasing muscle strength/fitness), but was additional to any other therapies (e.g. swimming, occupational therapy).
Our main objective was to enhance our understanding of the functional meaning of the gene arrangement on the bacterial chromosome, taking as examples some genomes from the Rhizobiales and Enterobacteriales.
