Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome is an inflammation of the liver capsule as a complication of pelvic inflammatory disease, whose etiologic agent is the most common C. trachomatis. The acute phase Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome may present with pain in upper right quadrant abdomen, commonly confused with other diseases of the hepatobiliary and gastrointestinal tract. Definitive diagnosis is now possible for...

Fitz-Hugh-Curtis syndrome is a condition characterized by inflammation of the liver capsule with concomitant pelvic inflammation without involvement of liver parenchyma. It is classically seen in young women who present with sharp, pleuritic right upper quadrant pain, usually but not always accompanied by symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and is frequently confused with biliary trac...

The problem of how to reconstruct the parameters of a stochastic nonlinear dynamical system when they are time-varying is considered in the context of online decoding of physiological information from neuron signaling activity. To model the spiking of neurons, a set of FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) oscillators is used. It is assumed that only a fast dynamical variable can be detected for each neuron, a...

In the present study, we further examined (see Kamhi & Catts, 1986) the phonological processing abilities of language-impaired (LI) and reading-impaired (RI) children. We also evaluated these children's ability to process spatial information. Subjects were 10 LI, 10 RI, and 10 normal children between the ages of 6:8 and 8:10 years. Each subject was administered eight tasks: four word repetition...

Abbey of St. Victor in Paris. Probably a student of William of Champeaux, he became a leading master in the abbey's school. His writings encompass a wide range of commentaries, treatises, and mystical works. The two most important are De sacramentis christianae fidei, the first theological summa, and Didascalicon, which proposed an influential framework for scientific inquiry and biblical inter...
