Abstract
We present a model of creativity captured as exploration and production of novel and functionally efficient behaviors, based on the statistical mechanics of disordered systems. In support of the modelling, we highlight examples of creative behaviors from our research in sports like boxing and rugby...

Clinical Rheumatology (29)9 2010
Abstract
We reviewed the rheumatology ultrasound laboratory charts of patients with BC from Oct 2006 through Dec 2008. Demographic and disease data were also collected. Of the 1,120 patients who underwent ultrasound studies, 145 (12.9%) were found to have 180 BCs. The associated diseases were as follows: 91...

Anaesthesist (59)8 2010
Abstract
The treatment of severely injured trauma patients (polytrauma) is one of the outstanding challenges in medical care. Early in the initial course the patient's diagnostics have to be scrupulously reevaluated by an interdisciplinary team (tertiary trauma survey) to reduce deleterious sequelae of misse...

Medical Image Analysis (14)3 2010
Abstract
We propose a novel approach for musculoskeletal segmentation and registration based on simplex meshes. Such discrete models have already proven to be efficient and versatile for medical image segmentation. We extend the current framework by introducing a multi-resolution approach and a reversible me...

Reproductive Toxicology (29)3 2010
Abstract
We investigated the effects that 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) exposure has on the prostate in rhesus monkey offspring. Dams received 0, 30 or 300 ng/kg TCDD subcutaneously on Day 20 of gestation, and then 5% of the initial dose was injected every 30 days until Day 90 after delivery. Th...

Abstract
We developed the hybrid training method (HYB) as a countermeasure of this musculoskeletal atrophy, which uses the contraction produced in a muscle by electrical stimulation of antagonist to resist the volitional contraction of agonist. HYB has several features. These include ; 1) simple device, 2) s...

Abstract
Mechanical stress is one of the most important physiological factors for maintaining bone mass. Mechanical unloading leads to both reduced formation and enhanced resorption of bone, which is called "uncoupling" , causing immobilization osteoporosis. On the other hand, aging and excess mechanical str...

Abstract
The complete absence of orthopedic morbidity with benzodiazepine-modified ECT contrasts with historical descriptions of a 20% to 40% risk with unmodified ECT. We speculate that the limited muscle relaxant action of the pre-ECT parenteral benzodiazepine may have had protective effects. If so, if ECT...

Abstract
Abstract
The recent publication of revised guidelines for the management of persistent pain in the older adult (American Geriatric Society, 2009) has posed a dilemma for clinicians. In essence, these revised guidelines now downplay the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) relative to prior ye...

After 22 yrs of follow-up, hip OA was diagnosed in 41 subjects (4.9%). Heavy manual labour predicted the risk of developing hip OA [adjusted odds ratio (OR) 6.7; 95% CI 2.3, 19.5]. Permanent damage as a consequence of any musculoskeletal injury was also an independent predictor of hip OA (adjusted O...
