Head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) were used to create spatialized stimuli for presentation through earphones. Subjects performed forced-choice, identification tests during which allowed response directions were indicated visually. In each experimental session, subjects were first presented with auditory stimuli in which the stimulus HRTFs corresponded to the allowed response directions. T...

PURPOSE To determine whether the human retinal oxygenation response (deltaPO2) to a hyperoxic provocation is abnormal in patients with type I diabetes. METHODS Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to measure deltaPO2 during 100% oxygen breathing in patients with type I diabetes who had either no clinically detectable retinopathy (n = 5) or mild to moderate background diabetic retinopathy...

We survey results on the pebbling numbers of graphs as well as their historical connection with a number-theoretic question of Erdős and Lemke. We also present new results on two probabilistic pebbling considerations, first the random graph threshold for the property that the pebbling number of a graph equals its number of vertices, and second the pebbling threshold function for various natural...

conform to the average human type representing the present stage of civilization. Abnormal, subnormal, and supernormal children are those who deviate from the average human type, and retarded children are those who have failed to make the usual progress in school work, as prescribed by school authorities and courses of study. This article is to deal exclusively with retarded children. For the p...

Paroxysmal atrioventricular-block is a poorly-recognized cause of atrioventricular conduction abnormality leading to syncope and can be fatal. Here we report a case of paroxysmal atrioventricular-block presenting as syncope treated effectively with pacemaker implantation and review the current literature on prevalence, known mechanisms and treatment for it. Importantly we provide the diagnostic...
