Central auditory processes and test measures: ASHA 1996 revisited.

The theoretical issues surrounding central auditory processing disorders (CAPD) are reviewed here, especially with reference to the central auditory behavioral processes and the auditory test measures as prescribed in the ASHA (1996, American Journal of Audiology, 5(2), 41-54) statement on CAPD. A simplified nomenclature is recommended that directly relates process and test measure to facilitat...

Impact of ASHA Training on Active Case Detection of Visceral Leishmaniasis in Bihar, India

BACKGROUND One of the major challenges for management of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is early diagnosis of cases to improve treatment outcome and reduce transmission. We have therefore investigated active case detection of VL with the help of accredited social health activists (ASHA). ASHAs are women who live in the community and receive performance-based incentives for overseeing maternal and ...

ASHA: An adaptive shared-memory sharing architecture for multi-programmed GPUs

Spatial multi-programming is one of the most efficient multi-programming methods on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). This multi-programming scheme generates variety in resource requirements of stream multiprocessors (SMs) and creates opportunities for sharing unused portions of each SM resource with other SMs. Although this approach drastically improves GPU performance, in some cases it leads ...

In Vitro Antiviral Activity and Preliminary Clinical Trials of a New Adamantane Compound ASHA MATHUR

A compound, 1'-methyl spiro (adamantane-2,3'-pyrrolidine) maleate, chemically related to the antiviral drug amantadine, was tested for activity in vitro against a number of human respiratory viruses. By a variety of techniques, it was shown to be active against a wide range of human and animal influenza A viruses. The effect was, however, variable and ranged from high activity against two 1957 ...
