This appendix lays out a theoretical and practical framework for the collection and evaluation of data during rebound testing. As mentioned in Section 9-9, rebound tests (also known as “pulsing tests”) are commonly used to assess the attainment of cleanup in the vadose zone. However, little information is available to guide field practitioners through the data collection and its interpretation ...

BACKGROUND The evidence on the use of the oral dimethyl-fumarate after the discontinuation of treatment with natalizumab in people with Multiple Sclerosis is still little. Natalizumab discontinuation may induce the recurrence or rebound of the clinical and neuroradiological disease activity. Currently no therapeutic approach has been established to abolish disease reactivation and rebound after...

Obesity is at epidemic proportions but treatment options remain limited. Treatment of obesity by calorie restriction (CR) despite having initial success often fails due to rebound weight gain. One possibility is that this reflects an increased body weight (BW) set-point. Indeed, high fat diets (HFD) reduce adult neurogenesis altering hypothalamic neuroarchitecture. However, it is uncertain if t...

a r t i c l e i n f o JEL classification: C68 D57 D58 Q41 Q43 Q48 Keywords: Energy efficiency Indirect rebound effects Economy-wide rebound effects Household energy consumption CGE models This paper investigates the economic impact of a 5% improvement in the UK household energy efficiency, focussing specifically on total energy rebound effects. The impact is measured through simulations using m...

Heparin rebound phenomenon was named to illustrate unstable angina pectoris (UAP) reactivation after stopping heparin. Reinfarction clustering, as well as sharp increase of both thrombin production and activity in the early hours after heparin abandoning have been described (after thrombolysis), which has been partially attributed to heparin rebound. The aim of the study was to show importance ...

In this paper, after collecting the rock samples from eight mines and one high way slope, the tests for determination of dry density, Uniaxial Compressive Strength, tensile Strength (Brazilian Test), elastic modulus, Schmidt hammer rebound number have been done on samples. In addition, in order to calculating the mean size of rock grains, quartz content, hardness and abrasivity, a thin sections...

In spite of having been first introduced in the last half of the ninetieth century, the debate about the possible rebound effects from energy efficiency improvements is still an open question in the economic literature. This paper contributes to the existing research on this issue proposing an unbiased measure for economy-wide rebound effects. The novelty of this economy-wide rebound measure st...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a debilitating disorder resulting from loss of dopamine neurons. In dopamine deficient state, the basal ganglia increases inhibitory synaptic outputs to the thalamus. This increased inhibition by the basal ganglia output is known to reduce firing rate of thalamic neurons that relay motor signals to the motor cortex. This 'rate model' suggests that the reduced excitab...

The direct rebound effect is a concept that describes the increase in consumer demand for energy services resulting from improvements in energy efficiency. This paper uses household electricity consumption data in the United States during the period 2006-2010 to generate an estimation of the rebound effect indirectly through price elasticities. It then analyzes the impact of state level applian...

Eye movements were recorded and quantitatively analysed in a patient with a tumour initially involving the cerebellar flocculus. Ocular motor abnormalities included (1) impaired smooth pursuit, (2) impaired cancellation of the vestibulo-ocular reflex when fixating an object rotating with the head, and (3) gaze paretic and rebound nystagmus. Comparable findings have been reported in monkeys with...
