BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recovery of oculomotor (cranial nerve [CN] III) palsy after surgery of posterior communicating artery (PcomA) aneurysms has been well documented, but recovery after coiling is poorly understood. In this study, we report the recovery after coiling of PcomA aneurysm-induced CN III palsy in 21 patients at follow-up of 1 to 7 years. MATERIALS AND METHODS Of 135 patients wit...

Saturation Recovery The simplest sequence is known as Saturation Recovery in which there is a single 90? pulse and a long repetition time between pulses. If the signal is measured immediately following the pulse the image will depend on the proton density. If the sequence is repeated rapidly (short repetition time, TR) there will be only partial relaxation and the results will depend on proton ...

In an asynchronous distributed computation, processes may fail and restart from saved state. A protocol for optimistic rollback recovery must recover the system when other processes may depend on lost states at failed processes. Previous work has used forms of partial order clocks to track potential causality. Our research addresses two crucial shortcomings: the rollback problem also involves t...

Grafts of favorable axonal growth substrates were combined with transient nerve growth factor (NGF) infusions to promote morphological and functional recovery in the adult rat brain after lesions of the septohippocampal projection. Long-term septal cholinergic neuronal rescue and partial hippocampal reinnervation were achieved, resulting in partial functional recovery on a simple task assessing...

The direct cortico-motoneuronal connection is believed to be essential for the control of dexterous hand movements, such as precision grip in primates. It was reported, however, that even after lesion of the corticospinal tract (CST) at the C4-C5 segment, precision grip largely recovered within 1-3 mo, suggesting that the recovery depends on transmission through intercalated neurons rostral to ...

A b s t r a c t − A new code is presented which improves the minimum distance properties of sequence detectors operating at high linear densities. This code, which is called the maximum transition run code, eliminates data patterns producing three or more consecutive transitions while imposing the usual k-constraint necessary for timing recovery. The code possesses the similar distance-gaining ...

Systems for Power Line Communications (PLC) mostly apply multicarrier modulations in order to cope with the time dispersive nature of the power line transmission channel. In the emerging IEEE 1901.1 standard on broad–band communications via power line, two alternative techniques, conventional OFDM (convOFDM) and Wavelet–OFDM, are included. However, up to now, only convOFDM systems can be found ...

BACKGROUND Time course and predictors of myocardial recovery on contemporary left ventricular assist device support are poorly defined because of limited number of recovery patients at any implanting center. This study sought to investigate myocardial recovery using multicenter data from the Interagency Registry for Mechanically Assisted Circulatory Support (INTERMACS). METHODS AND RESULTS Th...
