The efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation in patients with medication overuse headaches secondary to chronic migraines (P4.128) by Ahdab, Rechdi

“…Conclusions: Our results show that cathodal tDCS over the visual cortex and anodal tDCS over the left DLPFC have a significant analgesic effect in MOH and effectively decrease the number of severe migraine days. There was also a significant decrease in the consumption of analgesic medications in the DLPFC group and in the pain intensity in the Occipital group. …”

Two-surgeon technique of parenchymal transection contributes to reduced transfusion rate in patients undergoing major hepatectomy by Palavecino, Martin

“…Conclusion Although most factors that affect the red cell transfusion rate for liver resection are patient- or tumor-related, the parenchymal transection technique is under the surgeon's control. The decrease in transfusion rate associated with the use of the 2-surgeon technique emphasizes the important role of the hepatobiliary surgeon in determining outcomes after liver resection. …”

An additive manufacturing approach based on electrohydrodynamic printing to fabricate P3HT:PCBM thin films by Zulfikre Esa (19457344)

“…The films exhibited a broad visible absorption spectrum ranging from ~ 340 to ~ 600 nm, with a maximum peak λ_max located at ~ 500 nm. As the annealing temperature and the flow rate were increased, discernible alterations in the PCBM clusters were consequently observed in the blends of the film and the size of the PCBM clusters has decreased by 3% while the distance between them was highly reduced by as much as 82%.…”

Acute intense fatigue does not modify the effect of EVA and TPU custom foot orthoses on running mechanics, running economy and perceived comfort by Ken Van Alsenoy (14150559)

“…Flight time shortened (P = 0.026), peak braking (P = 0.016) and push-off (P = 0.032) forces decreased and vertical stiffness increased (P = 0.014) from before to after the repeated-sprint exercise, independent of footwear condition. …”

Custom foot orthoses improve performance, but do not modify the biomechanical manifestation of fatigue, during repeated treadmill sprints by Olivier Girard (409080)
