INTRODUCTION Wilson disease is rarely reported among African children. This report describes the second case report of a Nigerian child with Wilson disease in three decades. CASE PRESENTATION An eight-year-old African boy presented with generalized oedema and ascites and proteinuria. Over the next three weeks he developed conjugated hyperbilirubinaemia, severe coagulopathy and prominent extra...

Wilson disease (WD) is one of the few curable movement disorders that manifests with varied presentations so that WD needs to be considered in any patient with a movement disorder under the age of 50 years. Although WD is one of the causes of myoclonus, it is rarely seen in WD and usually as an associated finding. We report a case of an adolescent female patient of WD who presented with cortica...

Many of the experiments proposed to look for interference CP violation in neutral B mesons concentrate on tagged decay into CP eigenstates. Aleksan, Dunietz, Kayser and Le Diberder have shown that one can also look for interference CP violation using tagged decays into non-CP eigenstates. In all these methods, one must trace the time dependence of the decays. In this article we discuss a new me...

Studies in different sensory systems indicate that short spike patterns within a spike train that carry items of sensory information can be extracted from the overall train by using field potential oscillations as a reference (Kayser et al., 2012; Panzeri et al., 2014). Here we test the hypothesis that the local field potential (LFP) provides the temporal reference frame needed to differentiate...
