Are emotional states based in the brain? A critique of affective brainocentrism from a physiological perspectiveAbstractWe call affective brainocentrism the tendency to privilege the brain over other parts of the organism when defining or explaining emotions. We distinguish two versions of this tendency. According to brain-sufficient, emotional states are entirely realized by brain processes. According to brain-master, emotional states are realized by both brain and bodily processes, but the latter...

Exoskeletons Improve Locomotion Economy by Reducing Active Muscle VolumeExoskeletons that improve locomotion economy are typically engineered to reduce users' limb-joint mechanical work or moments. Yet, limb-joint dynamics do not reflect muscle dynamics, which dictate whole-body metabolic energy expenditure. Here, we hypothesize that exoskeletons primarily reduce user metabolic energy expenditure across locomotion conditions by reducing active muscle volume. Corresponding Author: Owen N. Beck, Georgia...

Alternative Complement Pathway Activation Provokes A Hypercoagulable State with Diminished FibrinolysisIntroduction: Several disease processes trigger prolonged activation of the alternative complement pathway. Crosslinks between complement activation and physiologic changes in platelets and neutrophils have been identified, but how this interplay alters the hemostatic potential in humans remains undefined. We hypothesize that activation of the alternative pathway triggers a hypercoagulable state....

Echocardiographic score for prediction of pulmonary hypertension at catheterization: the Daunia Heart Failure RegistryBackground Right heart catheterization (RHC) is recommended by guidelines for the diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension, the definition of hemodynamic impairment and responsiveness to drug therapy.

Binaural Optimization of Cochlear Implants: Discarding Frequency Content Without Sacrificing Head-Shadow BenefitObjectives: Single-sided deafness cochlear-implant (SSD-CI) listeners and bilateral cochlear-implant (BI-CI) listeners gain near-normal levels of head-shadow benefit but limited binaural benefits. One possible reason for these limited binaural benefits is that cochlear places of stimulation tend to be mismatched between the ears. SSD-CI and BI-CI patients might benefit from a binaural fitting...
