Background: An imbalance of the cerebrovascular response during functional activation of the brain has been postulated as a factor in the pathophysiology of migraine. The purpose of this study was to determine the transcranial doppler sonography (TDS) diagnostic value for the cerebral flow velocity changes in the interictal phase of classic migraine. Methods: This study was carried out on 46 pa...

Abstract. Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is the dominant biogenic sulfur compound in ambient marine atmosphere. Low-volatility acids from DMS oxidation promote formation and growth of aerosols ultimately alter cloud properties Earth's climate. We studied OH-initiated Aarhus University Research on Aerosol (AURA) smog chamber boundary layer (MBL) with aerosol dynamics gas- particle-phase chemistry kineti...

Migraine is a common disabling disorder characterized by recurrent headaches and at times non-painful episodic phenomena associated with a variety of neurological manifestations. It ranks among the top 20 causes of disability worldwide [1]. It therefore has a substantial impact on individuals as well as on society. A community based study on headaches in Malaysia showed the prevalence of migrai...

Real-time interactive software can be difficult to construct and debug. Aura is a software platform to facilitate highly interactive systems that combine audio signal processing, sophisticated control, sensors, computer animation, video processing, and graphical user interfaces. Moreover, Aura is open-ended, allowing diverse software components to be interconnected in a real-time framework. A r...
