Long-Term Hearing Outcome After Radiosurgery for Vestibular Schwannoma: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Constantin Tuleasca, Adrien Jean Régis Maurice Hilaire

BACKGROUND: Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is one of the main treatment options in the management of small to medium size vestibular schwannomas (VSs), because of high tumor control rate and low cranial nerves morbidity. Series reporting long-term hearing ...

Dynamic environmental flows using hydrodynamic-based solutions for sustainable hydropower

Giovanni De Cesare, Paolo Perona

Water diversions from rivers and torrents for anthropic uses of the resource alter the natural flow regime. As a measure, environmental flows have been prescribed and often are enforced by law to follow policies (e.g., minimal flow, proportional redistribu ...

Single fraction and hypofractionated radiosurgery for perioptic meningiomas-tumor control and visual outcomes: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Constantin Tuleasca

Perioptic meningiomas, defined as those that are less than 3 mm from the optic apparatus, are challenging to treat with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). Tumor control must be weighed against the risk of radiation-induced optic neuropathy (RION), as both tu ...

Proton beam radiation therapy for vestibular schwannomas-tumor control and hearing preservation rates: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Constantin Tuleasca

ObjectiveProton beam therapy is considered, by some authors, as having the advantage of delivering dose distributions more conformal to target compared with stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). Here, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of proton ...

Design of New Low-Carbon Floor Systems by Reusing Cut Cast-in-Place Concrete Pieces

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Numa Joy Bertola, Célia Marine Küpfer

As floors typically account for the largest share of a building embodied carbon footprint, new strategies to build low-carbon floors must be developed and implemented. Among these strategies, the reuse of existing components is a promising circular approac ...

Quality criteria for multi-domain studies in the indoor environment: Critical review towards research guidelines and recommendations

Dolaana Khovalyg, Verena Marie Barthelmes, Matteo Favero, Giorgia Chinazzo, Mandana Sarey Khanie

The perception, physiology, behavior, and performance of building occupants are influenced by multi-domain exposures: the simultaneous presence of multiple environmental stimuli, i.e., visual, thermal, acoustic, and air quality. Despite being extensive, th ...

New Insights Into the Pivotal Role of CREB-Regulated Transcription Coactivator 1 in Depression and Comorbid Obesity

Antoine Timothée Cherix, Jean-René Cardinaux

Depression and obesity are major public health concerns, and there is mounting evidence that they share etiopathophysiological mechanisms. The neurobiological pathways involved in both mood and energy balance regulation are complex, multifactorial and stil ...

Towards reproducible software studies with MAO and Renku

Pamela Isabel Delgado Borda, Christine Choirat

In software engineering, the developers' joy of decomposing and recomposing microservice-based applications has led to an enormous wave of microservice artefact technologies. To understand them better, researchers perform hundreds of experiments and empiri ...

An overlapping pattern of cerebral cortical thinning is associated with both positive symptoms and aggression in schizophrenia via the ENIGMA consortium

Erick Jorge Canales Rodriguez, Wenhao Jiang

Background Positive symptoms are a useful predictor of aggression in schizophrenia. Although a similar pattern of abnormal brain structures related to both positive symptoms and aggression has been reported, this observation has not yet been confirmed in a ...

Effect of task conditions on human hand pose selection strategies in bimanual fine manipulation tasks

Many manipulations in human everyday activities rely on the collaboration of our two hands. Bimanual fine manipulation tasks are particularly demanding as precise coordination among fingers of both hands is required. Yet, despite the abundant degrees of fr ...

Study of self-sensing actuation strategies for quasi-static piezoelectric actuators

Yves Perriard, Louis Antoine Masson

Self-sensing actuation in piezoelectric actuators has been a growing research topic since 1992, with two main approaches having been identified: either by evaluating the dielectric displacement field within the piezoelectric through a measurement bridge, e ...

Modulation of vection latencies in the full-body illusion

Olaf Blanke, Bruno Herbelin, Alessandro Nesti, Giulio Rognini

Current neuroscientific models of bodily self-consciousness (BSC) argue that inaccurate integration of sensory signals leads to altered states of BSC. Indeed, using virtual reality technology, observers viewing a fake or virtual body while being exposed to ...

Common Recruitment of Angular Gyrus in Episodic Autobiographical Memory and Bodily Self-Consciousness

Olaf Blanke, Lucie Bréchet, Baptiste Gauthier, Petr Grivaz

Parietal cortex and adjacent parts of the temporal cortex have recently been associated with bodily self-consciousness (BSC). Similarly, growing evidence suggests that the lateral parietal cortex is crucial for the subjective aspects of episodic autobiogra ...
