Background and purpose: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a non-invasive pre-surgical tool used to assess localization and lateralization of language function in brain tumor and vascular lesion patients in order to guide neurosurgeons as they devise a surgical approach to treat these lesions.We investigated the effect of varying Field
Demography of a forest elephant population.
African forest elephants face severe threats from illegal killing for ivory and bushmeat and habitat conversion.Due to their cryptic nature and inaccessible range, little information on the biology of this species has been collected despite its iconic status.Compiling individual based monitoring data collected over 20 years from the Dzanga Bai popu
Moderator Band and Ventricular Tachycardia: Structural or Functional Substrate?
The moderator band (MB) is an intracavitary structure of the right ventricle composed of muscular fibers encompassing specialized Purkinje fibers, separated each other by collagen and adipose tissue.In the last decades, premature ventricular complexes originating within the Purkinje network have been implicated in the genesis of life-threatening ar
Light habitat, structure, diversity and dynamic of the tropical dry forest
Tropical dry forests are complex and fragile ecosystems with high anthropic intervention and restricted reproductive cycles.These have unique richness, structural diversity, physiological and phenological.This research was executed in Kitchen Island the Upper Magdalena Valley, in four forest fragments with different successional stages.In each frag
