Proteus syndrome (PS) is an extremely rare and complex disorder. Approximately 200 cases have been reported, and it seems to affect people of all ethnic and racial groups. PS is characterized by segmental overgrowth of multiple tissues and organs including vascular malformations, lipomatous overgrowth, hyperpigmentation, and various types of nevi. We hereby present a 7-year-old boy who presente...

Pediatric vascular malformations of the central nervous system differ from those seen in adults. Their classification may be based on symptoms, pathomechanics, patient's age, morphologic features, or presumed etiology. This review describes the different classification schemes and the endovascular management options of these rare and challenging diseases. The proposed etiologic classification o...

Conventionally, system anomaly detection has been based on setting thresholds and rules. Today, as systems have diversified and the targets of analysis have become increasingly numerous and complicated, the large number of parameters to monitor has made it impossible for analysts to grasp the relationships between them. In addition, resolving these issues with data analysis requires advanced ex...

Objective: The main objective of this research is to explain the accrual anomaly using accruals factor (CMA) and accrual-based factor-mimicking portfolios as well as checking whether accrual anomaly is risk-based or mispricing. According to rational frictionless asset pricing model, the ability of accruals to predict returns should come from the loadings on this accrual factor loading that pred...

The central nervous system is composed of the brain and the spinal cord. The brain is a complex organ that processes and coordinates activities of the body in bilaterian, higher-order animals. The development of the brain mirrors its complex function as it requires intricate genetic signalling at specific times, and deviations from this can lead to brain malformations such as anencephaly. Resea...

In this paper, we will assess the performance of a data-driven anomaly detection algorithm, the Inductive Monitoring System (IMS), which can be used to detect simulated Thrust Vector Control (TVC) system failures. However, the ability of IMS to detect these failures in a true operational setting may be related to the realistic nature of how they are simulated. As such, we will investigate both ...

Tectonophysics, 41: 79-100. Heat-flow results from eleven widely spaced sites in central and western regions of the Republic of Zambia range between 54 and 76 mW rnm2. Ten of the sites are located in late Preca...
