The bare essentials: muscle disease.

The bare essentials: hyperkinetic movement disorders: shakes, jumps and jolts.

2010;10:114–123. doi:10.1136/ jnnp.2010.206078 114 INTRODUCTION Movement disorders involve either too much or too little movement. One of the most common and important is Parkinson’s disease where there is a mixture of too little (bradykinesia) and too much movement (tremor and drug induced dyskinesia); this is the subject for a future Bare Essentials article and will not be considered here. Hy...

Brief description of bare essentials of surface transfer and results from simulations with the HAPEX-MOBILHY data

The Bare Essentials of Surface Transfer (BEST) land surface scheme is briefly described and the key physical parameterisations discussed. Results are then presented to illustrate how the model performs, with forcing data for HAPEX-MOBILHY, compared to a series of other schemes in the simulation of evaporation and sensible heat. The implications of the models performance, and some indications of...

Dissection of the Factors Affecting Formation of a CH∙∙∙O H-Bond. A Case Study

Quantum calculations are used to examine how various constituent components of a large molecule contribute to the formation of an internal CH···O H-bond. Such a bond is present in the interaction between two amide units, connected together by a series of functional groups. Each group is removed one at a time, so as to monitor the effect of each upon the H-bond, and thereby learn the bare essent...

THE BARE ESSENTIALS Peripheral nerve diseases

Correspondence to: Professor R Hughes, MRC Centre for Neuromuscular Disease, PO Box 114, National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, Queen Square, London WC1N 3BG, UK; richard. [email protected] EPIDEMIOLOGY Peripheral nerve diseases are surprisingly common. Population-based studies indicate a prevalence of symmetrical polyneuropathy of about 2.4%, more in the elderly. Carpal tunnel synd...
