Study Design Cross sectional study. Purpose To characterize the pattern of injury, describe the current clinical management, and determine the outcomes in traumatic spine injury (TSI) patients presenting to a major government hospital in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Overview of Literature There is a paucity of literature on epidemiology or current clinical practices for TSIs in Cambodia. The findi...

Although ophthalmopathy is mainly associated with Graves' hyperthyroidism, milder eye changes are also found in about 25% of patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). The recent finding of negative thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) antibodies, as measured in the Thyretain™ thyroid-stimulating immunoglobulin (TSI) reporter bioassay, in patients with euthyroid Graves' disease raises the possibility t...

The solar observations from the Total Irradiance Monitor (TIM) are discussed since the SOlar Radiation and Climate Experiment (SORCE) launch in January 2003. The TIM measurements clearly show the background disk-integrated solar oscillations of generally less than 50 parts per million (ppm) amplitude over the ∼2 ppm instrument noise level. The total solar irradiance (TSI) from the TIM is about ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The risk of stroke after a transient ischemic attack (TIA) for patients with a positive diffusion-weighted image (DWI), i.e., transient symptoms with infarction (TSI), is much higher than for those with a negative DWI. The aim of this study was to validate the predictive value of a web-based recurrence risk estimator (RRE; http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/RRE/) of TSI. ME...

We investigate the effects of solar forcing on North Atlantic (NA) summer climate, in climate simulations with Earth System Models (ESMs), over preindustrial past millennium (AD 850–1849). use one simulation and a four-member ensemble performed MPI-ESM-P CESM-LME models, respectively, forced only by low-scaling variations Total Solar Irradiance (TSI). apply linear methods (correlation regressio...

The introduction of a plasma and a strong guide magnetic field in a free electron laser (FEL) slows down the phase velocity of radiation, significantly reducing the requirements on beam energy for generating frequencies below the electron-cyclotron frequency (oi, < oj,). Around plasma resonance (cu, ~ wp), the FEL mode couples to two-stream instability (TSI), attaining a large growth rate, comp...

The purpose of this study was to examine the potential effect solar energy on vascular stroke mortality in a Greek region by using neural networks analysis. time period studied from 1985 1989. We employed Active Cavity Radiometer Irradiance Monitoring (ACRIM) data as main representatives total irradiance (TSI) and correlated them with deaths obtained Piraeus City Registry.
