We present the case of a 60 yrs old male who, following routine, uneventful, fluoroscopically guided L5/S1 facet joint rhizolysis and sacro-iliac (SIJ) injection developed an unexpected inability to stand or walk, condition known as astasia-abasia. Initial concern had been that this neurological phenomenon was result complications his chronic pain intervention. Despite essentially normal examin...

This article pursues two tasks. The first is to clarify the value and productivity of Williams’s Keywords: a vocabulary culture society (first edition 1976, second expanded 1983a) for project Cultural Studies. clarification helped, I argue, by reading it alongside Vološinov’s Marxism philosophy language (published in Russian 1929, translated into English 1973). related task speculative developm...

We study the development of conjunctive keyword searchable scheme which enables one to search encrypted documents by using more than one keyword. The notion of conjunctive keyword searching was presented by Golle et al. in 2004. However, their security model was constructed in a symmetric-key setting which is not applicable for the overall applications in the reality. So Park et al. extended Go...

In this paper we present several proofs on the extension of M. Riesz fractional integration and di¤erentiation to the contexts of spaces of homogeneous type and measure metric spaces with non-doubling measures. 1. Introduction, some de…nitions, and a basic lemma Professor M. Ash asked me to write a survey article on some of the results that Stephen Vági and I obtained in the nineties on fractio...

Object manipulation techniques in robotics can be categorized in two major groups including manipulation with grasp and manipulation without grasp. The original aim of this paper is to develop an object manipulation method where in addition to being grasp-less, the manipulation task is done in a passive approach. In this method, linear and angular positions of the object are changed and its man...

Neck pain is a multifactorial disease and major problem in modern society. There no definitive treatment for neck pain. However, different pharmacological non-pharmacological treatments have been recommended, including instrumental chiropractic manipulation. Objective: This study will evaluate the efficacy safety of manipulation techniques Method: Four databases were searched between October 20...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact on structural lesions observed on MRI in the sacroiliac joints (SIJ) at 12 weeks in patients with non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA) receiving etanercept or placebo in EMBARK (Effect of Etanercept on Symptoms and Objective Inflammation in nr-axSpA, a 104 week study). METHODS Patients were randomised to double-blind etanercept 50 mg/week or pla...

Objective: There is a large theoretical literature regarding stock market manipulation. However, empirical evidence of manipulation remains scare especially in emerging markets like Iran. So, it is vital to detect and prevent. Manipulation distorts prices, thereby reducing market efficiency and harms public confidence. Distorted prices increase market volatility and risk. This study empirically...

ABSTRClCT Within the context of SU(2)BU(l), alternative multiplet assignments for the r lepton and possible accompanying neutralleptons are investigated. Currently available experimental data is sufficient to rule out many alternatives to the standard assignment of the left-handed r to a weak isospin doublet (with,massless vr partner) and the right-handed 'I: to a singlet.
