Doppler backscattering (DBS) is a microwave diagnostics method typically used to study the plasma rotation velocity. Apart from conventional techniques, more advanced forms of DBS implementation were suggested on Globus-M. More specifically variety oscillating processes was performed using DBS. In this review we present detailed description all methods and techniques employed in Globus-M alongs...

The anti-compulsive effects of high and low frequency stimulation (LFS, HFS) of the entopeduncular nucleus and globus pallidus (the rat's equivalent, respectively, of the primate's internal and external segments of the globus pallidus) were assessed in the signal attenuation rat model of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). HFS, but not LFS, of the two nuclei exerted an anti-compulsive effect, ...

AbstractBackground Few studies have scrutinized the spectrum of symptoms in subclinical hypothyroidism. Methods From 3 Danish Investigation on Iodine Intake and Thyroid Diseases (DanThyr) cross-sectional surveys performed period 1997 to 2005, a total 8903 subjects participated comprehensive investigation including blood samples questionnaires previous diseases, smokin...

BACKGROUND Nasopharyngeal complaints are common among patients who present to primary care. Patients with these complaints are often referred for nasolaryngoscopy evaluation to exclude serious conditions such as laryngeal cancer. METHODS This study is a retrospective case series in which 276 charts of adult outpatients who were referred for nasolaryngoscopy were reviewed. We examined patient ...

CONCLUSIONS Some primary laryngeal pathologies with specific clinical presentation may be related to silent laryngeal reflux. An ex adjuvantibus proton pump inhibitor (PPI) treatment may be helpful for showing evidence of such a hidden laryngeal disorder. OBJECTIVE To assess the validity of PPI as an ex adjuvantibus criterion for diagnosis and treatment of suspected reflux-associated laryngit...

The subthalamic nucleus-globus pallidus network plays a central role in basal ganglia function and dysfunction. To determine whether the relationship between activity in this network and the principal afferent of the basal ganglia, the cortex, is altered in a model of Parkinson's disease, we recorded unit activity in the subthalamic nucleus-globus pallidus network together with cortical electro...

TOG and JOSH are two fully Globus-enabled grid scheduling tools based around Grid Engine, the Globus Toolkit and a variety of data grid technologies. These tools were originally developed by the EPCC Sun Data and Compute Grids (Sun DCG) project. This paper describes these tools and their use in e-Science projects in the UK and abroad. 1. Grid Engine & Globus Grid Engine [1] is an open source di...
