We report the case of a 32-year-old patient who presented with catatonic stupor during the course of acute aseptic encephalitis involving the right frontotemporal area. Flumazenil-PET performed during the stupor indicated decreased benzodiazepine receptor binding in the right frontotemporal area where glucose metabolism was preserved as revealed by FDG-PET. An injection of diazepam immediately ...

This survey paper serves as an introduction to the challenges and needs related to wireless personal telehealth systems and provides an overview of ongoing activities in industry and various communication standards, aiming to enable plug-and-play interoperability. Specifically, we address a recently founded industry consortium, the Continua Health Alliance, and ongoing standardization efforts w...

For each positive integer n, let gn : I → I be defined by the formula gn (t) = v (nt). Observe that gn stretches n times and then folds the resulting interval [0, n] onto [0, 1]. The map g2 is the very well known “roof-top” map. For any two positive integers m and n, gm ◦ gn = gmn. Consequently, gn and gm commute (see, for example, [8, Proposition 2.2]). Let N = {n1, n2, . . . } be a sequence o...

We prove that every chainable continuum can be mapped into a dendroid such that all point-inverses consist of at most three points. In particular, it follows that there exists a finite-to-one map from a hereditarily indecomposable continuum (the pseudoarc) onto hereditarily decomposable continuum. This answers a question by J. Krasinkiewicz.

Three experiments investigated the use of lexical stress in auditory word recognition. Speech voicing continua were created in which lexical status resulted in one end-point constituting a real word and the other end a nonword (e.g. diGRESS-tiGRESS, in which digress is a real word, and DIgress-Tigress, in which tigress is a real word). Subjects' identification of the initial segment of these it...

Swingle [7]1 has given the following definitions. (1) A continuum M is said to be the finished sum of the continua of a collection G if G* = M and no continuum of G is a subset of the sum of the others.2 (2) If » is a positive integer, the continuum M is said to be indecomposable under index » if If is the finished sum of « continua and is not the finished sum of »+1 continua. Swingle has shown...

In his paper, On the separation of the plane by irreducible continua,*! W. A. Wilson obtains the following theorem. Let F be the union of two bounded continua Hi and H2 having these properties: Hi and H2 are irreducible about A+B; Hi-H2 = A+B where A and B are continua and 4̂ 5 = 0; Hi and H2 contain subcontinua Ci and C2 respectively such that a = Ci>C2A>*0, 0 = Ci-C2J3^0, d and C2 are irreduci...
