One third of all adults report experiencing tinnitus at some time in their lives. Ten percent to 15% have prolonged tinnitus requiring medical evaluation. Classification of tinnitus requires a thorough history and physical examination, supplemented by appropriate diagnostic tests. Tinnitus can be categorized according to its qualities (as described by the patient and matched on the audiometer) ...

Despite an ever growing knowledge on how parietal and prefrontal neurons encode low-level spatial and color information or higher-level information, such as spatial attention, an understanding of how these cortical regions process neuronal information at the population level is still missing. A simple assumption would be that the function and temporal response profiles of these neuronal populat...

Multisensory integration and crossmodal attention have a large impact on how we perceive the world. Therefore, it is important to know under what circumstances these processes take place and how they affect our performance. So far, no consensus has been reached on whether multisensory integration and crossmodal attention operate independently and whether they represent truly automatic processes...

Escherichia coli K1060-B5 (fadE fabB thi) incorporates into phospholipids several new synthetic fatty acid analogs including those containing phenyl, phenoxy, and azidophenoxy groups at the omega position.

The case report on cotrimoxazole-induced pancreatitis by Versleijen et al. deals with the assessment of the probability that cotrimoxazole induced the acute pancreatitis: a causality assessment. In this editorial, we comment on this assessment from a clinical, pharmacological and epidemiological perspective. Moreover, the consequences of the results of the assessment are discussed.

1. The network topology is characterized in the language of graph theory (e.g. tree, 0-chain, 1-chain) [1] [2]. By this means, the set of steady-state fluxes can be parameterized explicitly. 2. A particular steady-state solution is selected. This steady-state solution is used to generate a nominal, stationary routing algorithm for the stochastic flow problem. 3. However, to ensure the network o...
