BACKGROUND Loss of upper-extremity motor function is one of the most debilitating deficits following stroke. Two promising treatment approaches, action observation therapy (AOT) and mirror therapy (MT), aim to enhance motor learning and promote neural reorganization in patients through different afferent inputs and patterns of visual feedback. Both approaches involve different patterns of motor...

The formose reaction in reverse micelles of aerosol-OT (AOT), triton X-100 (TX), and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) was investigated. Time-conversion data have indicated that the interfacial water layer of AOT reverse micelles is a medium that accelerates formation of glycolaldehyde in the formose reaction. The 13C NMR spectra for the products of the formose reaction using formaldehy...

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT), a benign (hamartomatous) lesion of odontogenic origin, is an uncommon tumor which affects mainly females in the second decade. This lesion is most commonly associated with an impacted maxillary canine. This paper reported a case of AOT, in a 16-year-old female, associated with an impacted maxillary left lateral incisor. The evolution of this tumor was follow...

This study has investigated the association between amount of atmospheric aerosols and occurrences Asthma, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Lung Cancer in Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata Bengaluru. Aerosol Optical Thickness (AOT) data Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) Google Trends (GT) have been used to acquire information regarding abundance respiratory diseases re...

Adenoameloblastoma or adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is an uncommon, benign, epithelial lesion of odontogenic origin. It is a rare benign odontogenic tumor of the jaw affecting mostly young individuals with predominance in female. It occurs mostly in maxillary anterior region. On the basis of clinical and radiographical picture, it is often misdiagnosed as an odontogenic cyst. We report on...

The signal at the top of the atmosphere will certainly contain information about both the surface and the atmosphere. To derive the geophysical parameters from satellites remote sensing images, the atmospheric effects must be decoupled. Aerosol Optical Thickness (AOT), an important aerosol optical property, should be correctly determined to remove the atmospheric effect. The retrieval process i...

Control over the crystallography, morphology and hierarchical assembly of crystals are important goals in advanced materials engineering with important application potential. Most studies hitherto have concentrated on using different templates for the controlled nucleation and growth of ceramic crystals. In this paper, we demonstrate the crystallization of barium sulfate within thermally evapor...

in this paper electrical conductivity measurements and optical investigations takes place in aot/ heptane/ (water or aqueous) systems. the water in oil system prepared with adding water in 50% by weight of aot/ heptane solution.  in other systems instead of water, aqueous solutions of 1) zinc acetate and water 2) potassium hydroxide and water were used. in each phase, the trend of the electrica...

Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor (AOT) is a well-recognised slow growing benign tumor derived from complex system of dental lamina or its remnants. This lesion is categorised into three variants of which the more common variant is follicular type which is often mistaken for dentigerous cyst. We present a case of AOT in a 14-year-old male who was misdiagnosed as dentigerous cyst. Clinical radiologi...

We discuss the design of reaction-diffusion systems that display a variety of spatiotemporal patterns. We also consider how these patterns may be controlled by external perturbation, typically using photochemistry or temperature. Systems treated include the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction, the chlorite-iodide-malonic acid and chlorine dioxide-malonic acid-iodine reactions, and the BZ-AOT sys...
