Since Facebook was renamed Meta, a lot of attention, debate, and exploration have intensified about what the Metaverse is, how it works, and the possible ways to exploit it.It is anticipated that Metaverse will be a continuum of rapidly emerging technologies, usecases, capabilities, and experiences that will make it up for the next evolution of the
Assessment of the potential role of muscle spindle mechanoreceptor afferents in chronic muscle pain in the rat masseter muscle.
BACKGROUND: The phenotype of large diameter sensory afferent neurons changes in several models of neuropathic pain.We asked if similar changes also occur in "functional" pain syndromes.METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Acidic saline (AS, pH 4.0) injections into the masseter muscle were used to induce persistent myalgia.Controls received saline at pH
Material extrusion additive manufacturing of high particle loaded suspensions: a review of materials, processes and challenges
ABSTRACTMaterial extrusion additive manufacturing is of increased interest in producing materials with very high loadings of particles, specifically through the use of the direct ink write (DIW), or robocasting, technique and the use of highly loaded particle suspensions (HLS).Applications from biomedical composites to solid rocket propellants to p
