A systematic review of the literature on horseback riding therapy as an intervention for children with cerebral palsy (CP) was carried out. The terms horse, riding, hippotherapy, horseback riding therapy, equine movement therapy, and cerebral palsy were searched in electronic databases and hand searched. Retrieved articles were rated for methodological quality using PEDro scoring to assess the ...

This paper shows some results for the relative MIMO capacity (compared with a SISO system) with respect to the number of antennas, antenna orientation and distance. The MIMO capacity is extracted from the Geometrically Based Single Bounce Channel Model, where the channel is modelled by propagation in an environment composed of clusters of scatterers. The results are shown for the pico-, microan...

This software demo will show the functionality of Cochrane's PICO Annotator tool, which was developed for annotating evidence in clinical trial reports and systematic reviews, and the Cochrane PICOfinder, a discovery and visualisation tool for filtering evidence and underlying data by PICO criteria. Both tools are part of the Cochrane Collaboration’s Linked Data Platform. Details about the unde...

We used a double-blind experimental design to look for an effect of pico-Tesla magnetic stimulation in healthy subjects. Pico-Tesla stimulation is thought to increase the dominant frequency of 2-7 Hz oscillations in the human brain. We used magnetoencephalography to measure resting state brain activity. Each subject had two separate recording sessions consisting of three runs in between which t...

In this paper we present an analytical model for microand pico-cell wireless networks for any arbitrary topology in a high mobility environment. We introduce an approximation technique which uses a single cell decomposition analysis which incorporates moment matching of hand-off processes into the cell. The approximation technique is novel in that it can provide close approximations for non-Poi...

Intracellular pressure has a multitude of functions in cells surrounded by a cell wall or similar matrix in all kingdoms of life. The functions include cell growth, nastic movements, and penetration of tissue by parasites. The precise measurement of intracellular pressure in the majority of cells, however, remains difficult or impossible due to their small size and/or sensitivity to manipulatio...

The photovoltaic (PV) panel with no galvanic isolation system is well known technique in the world which is effective and delivers power with enhanced efficiency. The PV generation presented here is for stand-alone system installed in remote areas when as the resulting power gets connected to electronic load installation instead of being tied to the grid. Though very small, even then transforme...

A globally convergent algorithm of the first and third authors for a 3D hyperbolic coefficient inverse problem is verified on experimental data measured in the picosecond scale regime. Quantifiable images of dielectric abnormalities are obtained. The total measurement timing of a 100 pico-seconds pulse for one detector location was 1.2 nano-second with 20 pico-seconds (0.02 nano-second) time st...

In the prevailing cellular environment, it is important to provide the resources for the fluctuating traffic demand exactly in the place and at the time where and when they are needed. In this paper, we explored the ability of hierarchical cellular structures with inter layer reuse to increase the capacity of mobile communication network by applying total frequency hopping (T-FH) and adaptive f...
