A nderson-Fabry disease (AFD), an X linked lysosomal storage disorder, results in glycoshingolipid deposition in multiple organ systems, including the heart. Recognised cardiac manifestations include conduction disease, valvar thickening, and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). Recent studies have shown that enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) reduces left ventricular (LV) mass in patients with AF...

We show the uniqueness of minimal actions of a compact Kac algebra with the amenable dual on the AFD factor of type II1. This particularly implies the uniqueness of minimal actions of a compact group. Our main tools are a Rohlin type theorem, the 2-cohomology vanishing theorem, and the Evans-Kishimoto type intertwining argument.

PURPOSE To study temporal pattern of serum liver enzymes levels in newborns with hepatic injury associated with birth asphyxia (BA). METHODS Singleton term newborns with BA and ≤72 hours of age admitted to neonatal intensive care unit were prospectively enrolled. Term newborns with physiological jaundice and without BA were studied as controls. Serum liver enzymes were measured at <24 hours, ...

BACKGROUND The effects of sibship size and structure on delinquency are well established. Specifically, having a large family and many brothers has been shown to predict offending. However, despite strong links between delinquency and alcohol use, the contribution of sibship factors to drinking behaviors remains largely unexplored. The current study investigated the impact of sibship size and c...

The Brexit referendum and the last presidential election in the USA are just two examples of recent vote results that have been wrongly predicted. This research paper aims to identify the formation of voting behaviour to revaluate the necessary factors and variables in the correct and scientific prediction and analysis of voting behaviour. More specifically, this paper chose anti-European votin...

In this work we investigate the structural connectivity of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and its link with impaired executive function in children with unilateral cerebral palsy (UCP) due to periventricular white matter lesions. Fifty two children with UCP and 17 children with typical development participated in the study, and underwent diffusion and structural MRI. Five brain regions wer...

With its emphasis on anti-immigration rhetoric and actions, protectionism, as well populism, Donald Trump has transformed the Republican Party into a party that closely resembles populist radical right-wing parties in Europe. In this article, we first illustrate how party. Second, examine degree to which voter same or similar characteristics prototypical voter. To do so, compare some key featur...
