EFFICACY AND CLINICAL AND NEUROIMAGING BIOMARKERS OF RESPONSE OF TWO INTENSIVE AND SPACED TREATMENT PROTOCOLS OF THETA BURST MAGNETIC STIMULATION IN TREATMENT RESISTANT DEPRESSION

Introduction Resistant to treatment depression (RTD) is a prevalent disease that implies functional impairment and high resources consumption.Theta Burst Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Communication Cable (TBS) in dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is a novel therapy that has shown experimental efficacy and as an adjuvant strategy in RTD.The

Background: To evaluate the role of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAc) as a diagnostic tool in investigation of thyroid swelling and to correlate cytological findings with histopathology.Methods: In this descriptive study, ninety patients of all age groups and both sexes who underwent FNAc, for thyroid nodules, were included.Out of 90 patients,

This paper discusses the design and development of moderate and intense low oxygen dilution (MILD) combustion burners, including details of the computational fluid dynamics process, step-by-step from designing the model until post-processing.A 40 Gravity Knives mm diameter bluff-body burner was used as the flame stabilizer.The fuel nozzle was place

BackgroundStudent dropout has been a key issue facing universities for many years.The COVID-19 pandemic was expected to exacerbate these trends; however, international literature has produced conflicting findings.Limited literature from Africa has investigated the impact of COVID-19 on student dropout trends, despite the documented devastation, inc

By adopting a 2D time-dependent wave code, we investigate how mode-converted waves at the Ion-Ion Hybrid (IIH) resonance and compressional waves propagate in 2D density structures with a wide range Handle Covers / Inserts of field-aligned wavenumbers to background magnetic fields.The simulation results show that the mode-converted waves have contin
