Drawing on George Bornstein’s idea of a “textual aura”, this essay proposes distinct instantiation effect arising from the particular circumstances periodical publication and reception, magazine aura. Jean Toomer’s publications in range modernist magazines illustrate manifestations aura, with attention to appearances Broom The Little Review.

Abstract We explain recent popularity in vinyl records by reframing Walter Benjamin’s notion of ‘aura’ terms social forces such as alienation and cultural capital. Where he pays attention to specific artefacts’ mechanical reproducibility a way assessing their aura, we consider how mediums themselves broadly possess variable levels aura inversely related ability be mechanically reproduced consum...

OBJECTIVE To compare the prevalence of an incomplete circle of Willis in patients with migraine with aura, migraine without aura, and control subjects, and correlate circle of Willis variations with alterations in cerebral perfusion. METHODS Migraine with aura, migraine without aura, and control subjects were prospectively enrolled in a 1∶1∶1 ratio. Magnetic resonance angiography was performe...

Aurora kinases possess a conserved catalytic domain (CD) and a N-terminal domain (ND) that varies in size and sequence. We have previously reported that the N-terminal domain of AuroraA (AurA) participates in the localization of the kinase to the centrosome in interphase. AuroraB (AurB) is a chromosome passenger protein and its N-terminal domain is not necessary for its localization or function...

Familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) is a rare autosomal dominantly inherited subtype of migraine with aura. The clinical characteristics of FHM have been described previously in selected materials or case studies, but population-based studies are important in order to analyse the full spectrum of the disorder. The aim of the present study was to perform a systematic search for familial cases of ...

BACKGROUND Since the mid-19th century, epistaxis and migraine have been occasionally associated with each other. Nevertheless, we found only two cases in the contemporary medical literature. Sporadic hemiplegic migraine is a subtype of migraine with reversible motor deficits, without similar episodes in relatives. CASE We describe a 47-year-old male with a history of migraine with a scintilla...

OBJECTIVE To provide insight into the wide spectrum of migraine during childhood to establish practical and comprehensive treatment strategies. BACKGROUND Although recent studies have confirmed the effect of anti-migraine agents in childhood headaches fulfilling the criteria of migraine without aura, there have been no studies regarding the efficacy of these drugs in childhood migraine withou...

Aura (Jia et al., 2008; Vaughan et al., 2008) is a dependently typed higher-order programming language. It was designed to facilitate the automation of institutional access control policy. Following the Curry-Howard isomorphism, Aura types correspond to logical propositions and its expressions correspond to proofs. At runtime, Aura programs manipulate evidence to construct these authorization p...

PURPOSE Sporadic hemiplegic migraine is a rare form of migraine associated with motor weakness during the aura phase. While the aura usually lasts less than 1 hour, patients with sporadic hemiplegic migraine frequently have prolonged weakness. CASE REPORT A 60-year-old male had sporadic hemiplegic migraine after a head injury at the age of 14. He presented to our emergency department with a t...

Transient dynamics is pervasive in the human brain and poses challenging problems both in mathematical tractability and clinical observability. We investigate statistical properties of transient cortical wave patterns with characteristic forms (shape, size, duration) in a canonical reaction-diffusion model with mean field inhibition. The patterns are formed by ghost behavior near a saddle-node ...
