We present a second-order expansion for singular subspace decomposition in the context of real matrices. Furthermore, we show that, when some particular assumptions are considered, the obtained results reduce to existing ones, namely those by Vaccaro [SIAM J. on Matrix Anal. and Appl., 15(1994), pp. 661-671], or those by Zhengyuan [IEEE Trans. Signal Proc., 50(2002), pp. 2820-2830]. We make use...

Introduction We have been using the Elektra prosthesis for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the CMC joint of the thumb since 1997. After 760 implantations, we studied 689 cases to obtain sufficient follow-up in 596 women and 93 men. Of the 689 cases with sufficient follow up, only 661 cases were not deceased or had records that could be traced. The results in this series are good in terms of ...

le rats in reproductive and non-reproductive behaviors have been reported in several studies. This behavioral dimorphism has been registered in running wheel activity, reactivity to footshock, intracranial self stimulation (Diaz-Veliz et al., 1989), spatial learning (Warren et al., 1990), lever-pressing (Van Haaren et al., 1990) and classical conditioning (Wood and Shors 1998). However, other w...
