Muscle ultrasonography (MUS) has a higher sensitivity in detecting fasciculations than electromyography (EMG), while in some cases, it is unable to detect EMG-detected...

New Findings What is the central question of this study? This study investigated the changes in defibrillation efficacy at different stages of ventricular fibrillation (VF) and determined whether successful electrical shock in combination with a delayed after‐depolarization (DAD) blocker could suppress early refibrillation episodes following long duration VF (LDVF). What is the main finding and its importance? Flunarizine significantly reduced the activation of LDVF and early VF recurrence...

Abstract Studies have suggested that there is a strong link between the bodily self and the mechanisms underlying vicarious representations. Here, we used somatosensory ERPs to investigate the temporal dynamics of vicarious touch for stimuli that are more or less related to one's own body (human hands vs. rubber gloves). We found that vicarious touch effects were restricted to self‐relatable events (human hands) at early implicit stages of somatosensory processing (P45). At later more cognitive...

New Findings What is the central question of this study? Overactive bladder (OAB) is associated with enhanced spontaneous contractions, but their origins are unclear. This study aimed to characterise accompanying ATP transients. What is the main finding and its importance? Spontaneous detrusor contractions were accompanied by transient increases of ATP and their appearance was delayed by previous activation of efferent nerves to detrusor. This indicates spontaneous ATP release from nerve...

Abstract Toxoplasma gondii infection during pregnancy can result in adverse pregnancy outcomes. Previously, we have reported that these outcomes are associated with the impaired function of decidual Treg cells; however, the detailed mechanisms involved were unclear. It has been reported that the suppressive capacity of Treg cells is dependent on PD-1 expression. The present study explored the role of decidual PD-1+ Treg cell function in...
