{ States are associated with time progress conditions specifying how time can advance. Time can progress at a state by t only if all the intermediate states reached satisfy the associated time progress condition. { At transitions, clock values can be tested and modi ed. This is usually done by associating with transitions guards (conditions on clocks) and assignments. If a guard is true from an...

This PET H(2)(15)O study uses a reaching task to determine the neural basis of the unconscious motor speed up observed in the context of urgency in healthy subjects. Three conditions were considered: self-initiated (produce the fastest possible movement toward a large plate, when ready), externally-cued (same as self-initiated but in response to an acoustic cue) and temporally-pressing (same as...

AIMS To identify the prognostic variables concerning the improvement of overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) related symptoms following a transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) in patients with benign prostatic obstruction (BPO). METHODS A retrospective review was conducted in 298 patients with BPO who had undergone TURP. All patients had completed the preoperative evaluations including ...

In-vehicle information systems will soon confront drivers with an increasing number of warnings and alerts for situations ranging from imminent collisions to the arrival of e-mail messages. Coordinating these alerts can ensure that they enhance rather than degrade driving safety. Two experiments examined how temporal conflict and sound parameters affect driver performance and acceptance. The te...

PURPOSE To examine an association between the overactive bladder symptom score (OABSS) and neuropsychological parameters. Moreover, we investigate the factors that affect each item in the questionnaire. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 376 patients (males: 184; females: 192) with probable Alzheimer's disease (AD) were recruited. Cognitive testing was conducted using the Mini Mental Status Exa...

OBJECTIVE To validate use of the Manchester triage system in paediatric emergency care. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Emergency departments of a university hospital and a teaching hospital in the Netherlands, 2006-7. PARTICIPANTS 17,600 children (aged <16) visiting an emergency department over 13 months (university hospital) and seven months (teaching hospital). INTERV...

Review on USP1, with data on DNA/RNA, on the protein encoded and where the gene is implicated.

The dominant theoretical paradigm in explaining decision making throughout both neuroscience and cognitive science is known as “evidence accumulation”--The core idea being that decisions are reached by a gradual accumulation of noisy information. Although this notion has been supported by hundreds of experiments over decades of study, a recent theory proposes that the fundamental assumption of ...

OBJECTIVE • To assess the measurement characteristics of the Patient Perception of Intensity of Urgency Scale (PPIUS) in patients with overactive bladder (OAB). PATIENTS AND METHODS • Adult women with at least a 3-month history of OAB. The design was a 4-week, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of transdermal oxybutynin, with a 2-week placebo run-in and 8-week, open-label exte...
