Interactive effect of sleep duration and sleep quality on risk of stroke: An 8-year follow-up study in China.

abstract：:The capacity of healthy adult listeners to accommodate to altered spectral cues to the source locations of broadband sounds has now been well documented. In recent years we have demonstrated that the degree and speed of accommodation are improved by using an integrated sensory-motor training protocol under anechoic co...

abstract：:Thrombosis has proven to be extremely difficult to predict. Measuring the generation of thrombin is a very sensitive method to detect changes in the hemostatic system. We developed a method based on the generation of thrombin to further fingerprint hemostasis, which we have named thrombin dynamics. Via this method we ...
