Brainstem stroke syndromes are primarily determined by clinical criteria. There are few diagnostic procedures which are of benefit for the evaluation of brainstem ischemic events. Brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAERs) are a new electrophysiologic technique for assessing brainstem function. To evaluate the use of BAERs in patients with brainstem ischemic events, 35 individuals with recent ...

The objective of this study was to determine direct measurements of auditory pathways by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) during the growth period of healthy Beagles, and to discover how canine brainstem auditory evoked response (BAER) latencies vary in relation to these MRI measurements. Eighty healthy Beagles were tested at eight, 16 and 52 weeks of age (stages 1, 2, 3, respectively) with BAE...

Brainstem auditory evoked responses (BAERs) were recorded in 40 patients with clinically definite brainstem infarction, and results were compared to localizations from physical signs and CT scans. The BAER was abnormal in 92% of patients with evidence on physical examination of dysfunction of lateral structures in the pons or midbrain. Normal BAERs were seen with medially-situated or medullary ...

In the present paper new criteria for classes of FP -injective and weakly quasi-Frobenius rings are given. Properties of both classes of rings are closely linked with embedding of finitely presented modules in fp-flat and free modules respectively. Using these properties, we describe classes of coherent CF and FGF-rings. Moreover, it is proved that the group ring R(G) is FP -injective (resp. we...

The classes of FP -injective and weakly quasi-Frobenius rings are investigated. The properties for both classes of rings are closely linked with embedding of finitely presented modules in fp-flat and free modules respectively. Using these properties, we characterize the classes of coherent CF and FGF-rings. Moreover, it is proved that the group ring R(G) is FP -injective (weakly quasi-Frobenius...

of order n on V . It follows that R induces a projective collineation φ on the (n−1)dimensional projective space PG(n−1, q). We call φ and any projective collineation conjugate to φ a Frobenius collineation. In the present paper we shall study the case n = 3, that is, the Frobenius collineations of the projective plane PG(2, q). Let P = PG(2, q). Then every Singer cycle σ (see Section 3) of P d...

Cardiolipin antigens, used in the sero-diagnosis of syphilis, are mixtures of the phospholipids, cardiolipin, and purified natural lecithin (beefheart or egg), and usually also contain cholesterol. In 1949 Baer and Kates (1949, 1950) succeeded in the synthesis of L-ac-dimyristoyl lecithin and in the following years other types of synthetic lecithin were produced, including a D-oc-dimyristoyl le...

An expression in terms of (cyclotomic) harmonic sums can be simplified by the quasi-shuffle algebra in terms of the so-called basis sums. By construction, these sums are algebraically independent within the quasi-shuffle algebra. In this article we show that the basis sums can be represented within a tower of difference ring extensions where the constants remain unchanged. This property enables...

In this paper, we introduce the notion of ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q_{k})− fuzzy subnear-ring which is a generalization of ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q)−fuzzy subnear-ring. We have given examples which are ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q_{k})−fuzzy ideals but they are not ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ q)−fuzzy ideals. We have also introduced the notions of ($epsilon $, $epsilon $ $vee$ ...
