This paper discusses how to analyze syntactically irregular expressions in a syntactic treebank. We distinguish such Multi-Word Expressions (MWEs) from comparable non-compositional expressions, i.e. idioms. A solution is proposed in the framework of Universal Dependencies (UD). We further discuss the case of functional MWEs, which are particularly problematic in UD.

Participants with the gene expansion for Huntington disease (HD) but not yet diagnosed were evaluated annually. Unidimensional diagnosis (UD) was a motor diagnosis defined as a diagnostic confidence level (DCL) of 4 (unequivocal motor signs, ≥99% confidence) on the standardized motor exam of the Unified Huntington Disease Rating Scale (UHDRS). Multidimensional diagnosis (MD) was defined as answ...

Dominance status among female marmosets is reflected in agonistic behavior and ovarian function. Socially dominant females receive submissive behavior from subordinates, while exhibiting normal ovulatory function. Subordinate females, however, receive agonistic behavior from dominants, while exhibiting reduced or absent ovulatory function. Such disparity in female fertility is not absolute, and...

Current approaches to software model checking can be divided into over-approximation-driven (OD) and under-approximationdriven (UD). OD approaches maintain an abstraction of the transition relation of a program and use abstract reachability to build an inductive invariant (or find a counterexample). At the other extreme, UD approaches attempt to construct inductive invariants by generalizing fr...

OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to assess schizotypy by using the Oxford-Liverpool Inventory of Feelings and Experiences (O-LIFE), in the groups of patients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder (BD) and unipolar (recurrent) depression (UD). An important element of the study was to compare - in terms of similarity - the results obtained in schizophrenia and BD, and - in terms of differences ...

BACKGROUND Ultrasound imaging of the spine has recently been proposed to facilitate identification of the epidural space. In this study, we assessed the accuracy and precision of the transverse approach, using a "single-screen" method, to facilitate labor epidurals. METHODS We enrolled 61 patients requesting labor epidurals. Ultrasound imaging (transverse approach, 2-5 MHz curved array probe)...

BACKGROUND The predictive value of an individual's attitude towards painful situations and the status of his immune system for postoperative analgesic requirements are not well understood. These may help the clinician to anticipate individual patient's needs. METHODS Sixty patients, who underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy under standardised general anaesthesia, were included. The total a...

AIM To investigate the effects of Nigella sativa L (NS) and Urtica dioica L (UD) on lipid peroxidation, antioxidant enzyme systems and liver enzymes in CCl(4)-treated rats. METHODS Fifty-six healthy male Wistar albino rats were used in this study. The rats were randomly allotted into one of the four experimental groups: A (CCl(4)-only treated), B (CCl(4)+UD treated), C (CCl(4)+NS treated) and...
