PATHOLOGICAL LAUGHTER AS A SYMPTOM OF MIDBRAIN INFARCTION

Pathological Laughter as a Symptom of Midbrain Infarction

Pathological laughter is an uncommon symptom usually caused by bilateral, diffuse cerebral lesions.It has rarely been reported in association with isolated cerebral lesions.Midbrain involvement causing pathological laughter is extremely unusual.We describe three patients who developed pathological laughter after midbrain and pontine-midbrain infarc

An iterative block-shifting approach to retention time alignment that preserves the shape and area of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry peaks

Abstract Background Metabolomics, petroleum and biodiesel chemistry, biomarker discovery, and other fields which rely on high-resolution profiling of complex chemical mixtures generate datasets which contain millions of detector intensity readings, each uniquely addressed along dimensions of time (e.g., retention time of chemicals on a chromatograp

Mechanical Characterization of Aluminum Sandwich Structures with Woven-Ply Pineapple Leaf/Glass Fiber-Reinforced Hybrid Composite Core

Fiber-metal laminates M205 Fuses consisting of alternating metal and fiber-reinforced polymer layers have displayed remarkable performance in several engineering applications.This work aims to identify the feasibility of incorporating pineapple leaf fiber to partially supersede glass fiber in thermoplastic-based fiber-metal laminates.Fiber-metal la
