[ad_1] Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is a common and fatal type of brain injury caused by shear forces that damage axons. It is difficult to diagnose and can result in unconsciousness and severe impairment. Treatment involves supportive care and therapy, with varying prognosis and costs. Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is a type of brain injury […]
[ad_1] Diffuse reflection scatters light off a surface, allowing human eyes to see an object. The degree of reflection depends on the surface’s characteristics. The absorption of light by the surface determines reflection, and the color of an object is determined by its diffuse reflection. Metals, gases, and glass do not have good diffuse reflectivity, […]
[ad_1] Diffuse esophageal spasm causes uncoordinated contractions of the esophagus, making it difficult to swallow food and drink. The cause is unknown, but nerve damage and GERD may contribute. Symptoms include chest pain and a burning sensation. Diagnosis involves a manometry test and further tests such as a CT scan or barium swallow. Treatment includes […]

[ad_1] The diffusion activation model explains how related concepts are processed in working memory. Semantic long-term memory consists of interconnected concepts, and when one is activated, related concepts are also activated, incentivizing recall. The strength of connections between ideas affects recall speed, and individual experience influences semantic categories. Diffuse activation is a model of working […]
