Specific motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) can be treated effectively with direct electrical stimulation of deep nuclei in the brain.

Spinal cord stimulation (SCS), a minimally invasive method, has more recently been proposed as a therapeutic approach to allevi

Background.The currently used patch test concentration for formaldehyde is 1.0% (wt/vol) in water. However, clinical experience and previous studies suggest that 1.0% might be insufficient for detecting an optimized number of clinically relevant cases of contact allergy to formaldehyde. Objectives.To validate earlier patch test results for comparison of 1% (wt/vol) and 2% (wt/vol) formaldehyde in

The keyword for this study is autonomy, a concept most of us take for granted. But for individuals with disabilities this is a right they have had to fight for throughout history.
