Plasma Urate and Parkinson's Disease in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) Study (2009)

Chen, Honglei, Mosley, Thomas H., Alonso, Alvaro, Huang, Xuemei

Higher plasma urate concentration has been linked to lower risk of Parkinson's disease in men, but data are lacking on women and African Americans. The authors examined plasma urate in relation to...

Shape (but not volume) changes in the thalami in Parkinson disease (2008)

McKeown, Martin J, Uthama, Ashish, Abugharbieh, Rafeef, Palmer, Samantha, Lewis, Mechelle, Huang, Xuemei

Abstract Background Recent pathological studies have suggested that thalamic degeneration may represent a site of non-dopaminergic degeneration in Parkinson's Disease (PD). Our objective was to...

Spectroscopic and Biochemical Analysis of Regions of the Cell Wall of the Unicellular 'Mannan Weed', Acetabularia acetabulum (2007)

Dunn, Erin K., Shoue, Douglas A., Huang, Xuemei, Kline, Raymond E., MacKay, Alex L., Carpita, Nicholas C., ...

Although the Dasycladalean alga Acetabularia acetabulum has long been known to contain mannan-rich walls, it is not known to what extent wall composition varies as a function of the elaborate...

A Smooth Dynamical System that Counts in Binary (1997)

Mark R. Greenstreet, Xuemei Huang

This paper presents a smooth dynamical system that implements a toggle flip-flop. The flip-flop is described as a system of smooth, non-linear ODE's. We identify a period-2, invariant set of...
