objective: there are controversial reports about factors that affect recovery from stuttering. in the ‎present study, the effect of hand dominancy, fine motor and inhibition control on late ‎recovery from stuttering was investigated among a group of kurdish-persian children who ‎stuttered in iran.‎ method: twenty-two kurdish-persian children aged 7-14 years who stuttered were followed for 6 ‎ye...

DESCRIPTION A 16-year-old right-hand-dominant adolescent boy presents to the emergency department with multiple lacerations to the right forearm after falling through a glass table with an outstretched hand. He has pulsatile bleeding from the proximal wound and normal sensorimotor examination of the right hand.

A 59 year old right handed man presented with a one week history of twitching of the right hand side of his face. This would spread to involve his right arm and hand. There was no background medical history of note and he was on no medication. On examination the right hand side of his face was continually twitching. Neurological examination did not reveal any further abnormalities. The results ...

Ten hours after onset of an anterior spinal artery syndrome (ASAS) F-waves could not be obtained from the paralysed left hand muscles. F-waves in the right hand were present and motor nerve conduction studies were normal on both sides. One week later paralysis of the right hand together with paraparesis occurred. Two days later F-waves from the right hand had disappeared. Three weeks later MRI ...

A deflated and restarted Lanczos algorithm to solve hermitian linear systems, and at the same time compute eigenvalues and eigenvectors for application to multiple right-hand sides, is described. For the first right-hand side, eigenvectors with small eigenvalues are computed while simultaneously solving the linear system. Two versions of this algorithm are given. The first is called Lan-DR and ...

We study minimisation of integer linear programs with positive right-hand sides. We show that su h programs an be approximated within the maximum absolute row sum of the onstraint matrix A whenever ...

The number of older, right-hand drive vehicles on BC roads has been proliferating in the last few years. Imported vehicles over 15 years of age are exempt in Canada from complying with Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) applicable to their years of production. This has led to a developing market for older vehicles from countries such as Japan. But while mechanical inspections are c...

We deal with the integral equation u(t) = f( R I g(t, z)u(z) dz), with t ∈ I = [0, 1], f : R → R and g : I×I → [0,+∞[. We prove an existence theorem for solutions u ∈ L(I,R) where the function f is not assumed to be continuous, extending a result previously obtained for the case n = 1.

We introduce the bilevel knapsack problem with stochastic right-hand sides, and provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an optimal solution. When the leader’s decisions can take only integer values, we present an equivalent two-stage stochastic programming reformulation with binary recourse. We develop a branch-and-cut algorithm for solving this reformulation, and a bra...
