It has long been observed in persons who have...
متن کاملUntangling the Effect of Head Acceleration on Brain Responses to Blast Waves.
Multiple injury-causing mechanisms, such as wave propagation, skull flexure, cavitation, and head acceleration, have been proposed to explain blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI). An accurate, quantitative description of the individual contribution of each of these mechanisms may be necessary to develop preventive strategies against bTBI. However, to date, despite numerous experimental a...

Drawing on recent literature on elections in autocracies, we present an argument to explain postelection coups. While we recognize that electoral institutions have the potential to stabilize autocracies, we illustrate that the election event can spark insta...
متن کاملTrans-orbital intra-cranial air gun injury.
PURPOSE To describe a case of trans-orbital intra-cranial air gun injury with a discussion on air gun related morbidity and mortality. METHODS Case report and literature review. RESULTS The air gun pellet travelled through the orbit without penetrating the globe. It passed into the middle cranial fossa through the superior orbital fissure and lodged in the temporal lobe.

In A, there is a monolayer appearance (arrowheads in lower panel) of the arterial wall after OAS, indicating disappearing medial and intimal layers in the middle of a medial dissection (small arrows). In B, there is neither a ...
