From numbers to Numerals and Vice Versa
Universally used decimal representations, such as 5; 200; 856763; 189200000 are rendered (written, pronounced) differently in different languages. The number 5 is tllus five in English, fern in Swedish, cinq in French, ketsmala in Koyukon, biyar in Hausa and nga: in Burmese. Numbers can furthermore be written differently in different mathematical systems. The number 5 is written V in the Roman ...
متن کاملNeurogenic heterotopic ossification after a stroke: diagnostic and radiological challenges.
Heterotopic ossification (HO) is the aberrant formation of ectopic bone within the soft tissues, of which the aetiology is usually either traumatic or neurogenic. Neurogenic HO is a known but uncommon complication that occurs after a cerebral or spinal insult. The condition may present with a spectrum of symptoms and is often difficult to diagnose clinically. Although different imaging modaliti...
متن کاملEffects of Radiation Therapy on Established Neurogenic Heterotopic Ossification
Heterotopic ossification (HO) is frequently seen on rehabilitation units after spinal cord injuries, fractures, brain injuries, and limb amputations. Currently, there is no effective treatment for HO other than prophylaxis with anti-inflammatory medications, irradiation, and bisphosphonate administration. These prophylactic treatments are not effective for managing ectopic bone once it has form...
متن کاملSurgery from experimental research to clinical application and vice-versa.
Producing knowledge is of fundamental importance and disseminating knowledge is a moral and ethical task that must not be neglected, especially by those who belong to a university institution strongly committed to teaching, research and patient care. The words science, technology and research denote three highly complex concepts of human activity. In medicine, and in surgery in particular, this...
متن کاملFrom Shock Response Spectrum to Temporal Moments and Vice-versa
Temporal moments have been used in engineering mechanics to condense the information contained in the shock response spectrum into a few scalar quantities. This paper presents an application of temporal moments to the propagation of an explosivedriven shock wave through an assembly of metallic parts. For this particular application, it is shown that temporal moments characterize the response of...
