OBJECTIVES During unilateral selective cerebral perfusion (uSCP), with right axillary artery or brachiocephalic trunk cannulation, the brain receives blood only via the right common carotid artery and right vertebral artery (VA). The left hemisphere is perfused mainly through the circle of Willis (CW). However, at least 50% of individuals have some variation in the CW. The aim of the present wo...

Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis is a sporadic form of hypo-kalemic and it most commonly presents as sudden onset weakness in the proximal muscles. It disorder seen Asian men which characterised by abrupt hypo-kalemia primarily affects lower extremities secondary to thyrotoxicosis. due an intracellular shift potassium induced thyroid hormone sensitisation Na/K ATPase rather than depletion total po...

Let Θ be a smooth compact oriented manifold without boundary, imbedded in a euclidean space E, and let γ be a smooth map of Θ into a Riemannian manifold Λ. An unknown state θ ∈ Θ is observed via X = θ + ǫξ where ǫ > 0 is a small parameter and ξ is a white Gaussian noise. For a given smooth prior λ on Θ and smooth estimators g(X) of the map γ we derive a second-order asymptotic expansion for the...

167 and H1-H2 are significantly decreased while HRF is consistently increased. Hypo/Hyperarticulated Speech: For hyperarticulated voice, speech clarity tends to be maximized, while hypoarticulation refers to speech produced with minimal efforts. We have shown in [6] that the stronger the degree of articulation, the higher the glottal formant frequency, the maximum voiced frequency and the funda...

A model is proposed that interprets a variety of connected speech processes as resulting from prosodic modulations at different tiers of functional speech motor control along the hypo-hyper dimension [10]. The general background of the model is given by the trichotomy of A-, Band C-prosodic phenomena [15] that together constitute the acoustic makeup of any speech utterance (with regard to their...
