Effect of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) on the Measures of Hyolaryngeal Elevation during Swallow in Individuals with Parkinson’s Disease
Abstract: Inadequate hyolaryngeal elevation is one among the leading cause of aspiration and dysphagia in individuals with Parkinson’s disease. Treatment protocols specific in strengthening the hyolaryngeal elevation are seldom studied in this population. Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) for swallow is a recent technical advancement in the arena of dysphagia rehabilitation that targets on stimulating the laryngeal extrinsic and the suprahyoid muscles, responsible for adequate movements of the hyolaryngeal complex. The literature …

Image Inpainting Techniques Comparative Analysis for the Amputation of Smearing Effects from the Inpaint Image
Abstract: Image inpainting is the process to reconstruct the missing or damaged portions of the image, in order to make it more legible and restore its unity. This can be done by using information from adjoining areas and amalgamate the inpainted area into the image so impeccably that a typical viewer is not aware of it. The eminence of the upshot will depend on what is omitted. If the inpainting region …

The Evaluation of the Light Parameters and Pleural Fluid Cholesterol to Determine the Differences Between Exudative and Transudative Pleural Discharge
Abstract: Background: Pleural effusion occurs when an imbalance between pleural fluid production and absorption leads to the accumulation of excess fluid in the pleural cavity. Pleural effusions are commonly classified into two types: transudative or exudative, depending on the underlying mechanism of fluid formation. While transudates typically result from systemic factors like heart failure or liver cirrhosis, exudates are usually caused by local factors such as infection, malignancy, or inflammation. Differentiating …

A New Approach to Analyze the Performance of Flat Plate Collector
Abstract: AbstractAs per standards, the thermal efficiency test for the flat plate collector is used to be conducted under specified steady state conditions and then incident angle modifier ‘Kτα’ has been used to calculate the thermal efficiency at a different angle of incidence. These standards do not consider the effect of solar azimuth angle, as well as time consumption and require the costly test setup. In this paper, a new approach …
