We assessed the impact of videotape analysis on scoring of the Hypertonia Assessment Tool (HAT) that discriminates between hypertonia subtypes. The HAT was administered to 28 children with cerebral palsy (mean age 9 years, range 4-17 years, 61% male). HAT examinations were videotaped; scores were assigned before and after videotape review. Neurological examination provided the gold standard dia...

We report the discovery by the HATNet survey of three new transiting extrasolar planets orbiting moderately bright (V=13.2, 12.8 and 11.9) stars. The planets have orbital periods of 4.3012, 3.1290, and 4.4631 days, masses of 0.39, 0.89, and 0.49MJ, and radii of 1.28, 1.43, and 1.28RJ. The stellar hosts have masses of 0.94, 1.26, and 1.28M⊙. Each system shows significant systematic variations in...

In mice, experimental infection with Trypanosoma brucei causes decreased bone marrow B-cell development, abolished splenic B-cell maturation and loss of antibody mediated protection including vaccine induced memory responses. Nothing is known about this phenomenon in human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), but if occurring, it would imply the need of revaccination of HAT patients after therapy and...

In this paper, we propose a numerical method based on the generalized hat functions (GHFs) and improved hat functions (IHFs) to find numerical solutions for stochastic Volterra-Fredholm integral equation. To do so, all known and unknown functions are expanded in terms of basic functions and replaced in the original equation. The operational matrices of both basic functions are calculated and em...

Chromatin-remodeling proteins have a profound role in the transcriptional regulation of gene expression during development. Here, we have shown that the chromodomain-containing protein Hat-trick is predominantly expressed within the oocyte nucleus, specifically within the heterochromatinized karyosome, and that a mild expression is observed in follicle cells. Colocalization of Hat-trick with He...

BACKGROUND The World Health Organization (WHO) has targeted the elimination of Human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) 'as a public health problem' by 2020. The selected indicators of elimination should be monitored every two years, and we provide here a comprehensive update to 2014. The monitoring system is underpinned by the Atlas of HAT. RESULTS With 3,797 reported cases in 2014, the correspon...

‎Generalizing the notion of character amenability for Banach‎ ‎algebras‎, ‎we study the concept of $varphi$-Connes amenability of‎ ‎a dual Banach algebra $mathcal{A}$ with predual $mathcal{A}_*$‎, ‎where $varphi$ is a homomorphism from $mathcal{A}$ onto $Bbb C$‎ ‎that lies in $mathcal{A}_*$‎. ‎Several characterizations of‎ ‎$varphi$-Connes amenability are given‎. ‎We also prove that the‎ ‎follo...

The complexes [Ru(CN)4(HAT)]2-, [{Ru(CN)4}2(mu2-HAT)]4- and [{Ru(CN)4}3(mu3-HAT)]6- (HAT = hexaaza-triphenylene) contain four, eight and twelve externally-directed cyanide ligands, respectively; they show strongly solvatochromic and intense MLCT absorptions, and [3]6- forms a high-dimensionality cyanide-bridged coordination network with Nd(III), in which Ru --> Nd energy transfer results in sen...

Several different “hat games” have recently received a fair amount of attention. Typically, in a hat game, one or more players are required to correctly guess their hat colour when given some information about other players’ hat colours. Some versions of these games have been motivated by research in complexity theory and have ties to well-known research problems in coding theory, and some vari...
