Theta Burst Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Can Modify Cortico-Muscular Coherence in Humans
Previous studies have shown that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can modify cortical excitability in humans, and particularly that a recentlyproposed rTMS protocol, “theta burst stimulation...

Egg-depositing behavior as a predator avoidance tactic of Yezonychus sapporensis Ehara (Acari, Tetranychidae)
Spider mites are very small phytophagous organisms living on plant leaves. They possess a diverse array of life types. Such diversity in life type has been supposed to be a result of coevolution between preda...

SiO2 Film Coatings with VUV Excimer Lamp CVD
Silica film coatings were demonstrated using photo-chemical vapor deposition with a 172-nm Xe excimer lamp. Tetraethoxyorthosilicate (TEOS) molecules were successfully dissociated into SiO2+2C2H5-OH+(residual C a...

Strength distribution of titania ceramics after high-voltage screening
Screening fields, at or below which 10%, 30% and 50% of TiO2 ceramic samples would break electrically, were applied to samples which show single-mode strength distribution. After these high-voltage screenings, th...

Hydrothermal synthesis of fibrous lead titanate powders
A fibrous lead titanate (PbTiO3) powder with light-yellow colour has been prepared by hydrothermal synthesis. The influences of Pb/Ti ratio (0.3 to 1.0) in the mixture and reaction time on the formation of fibrou...

Study of La1−xMnO3−δ non-stoichiometry and defect structure using ESR and iodometry
The oxidation states of manganese in the La1−xMnO3−δ (x = 0.09–0.11) were investigated by electron spin resonance (ESR) and iodometry. The ESR analysis carried out at room temperature for the samples prepared in ...

Involvement of Pituitary Endorphins in Pain Perception and Their Importance in Pituitary-Stimulation-Induced Analgesia in Animals and Man
Recently, we suggested that the pituitary gland possibly plays a major role in pain perception. Experimental findings by various investigators have supported this idea:
