herpes simplex virus (hsv) causes a wide range of pathologies in the human central nervous system (cns) such as stroke. it was proposed that there is an association between hsv infection and stroke with different results reported by the researchers using different methods. this study aimed to investigate the frequency of hsv among stroke patient and control groups. we detected hsv in 28 stroke ...

conclusions: prevalence of hsv1/2 in mucocutaneous biopsies from pemphigus patients is 2.5% and possibly hsv1/2 has no role in the pathogenesis of pemphigus lesions. but resistant cases to treatment might be suspected to hsv. results: ten patients (25%) had a history of orolabial herpes infection. the results of all samples were negative for hsv1 except one sample which showed the positive resu...

Background: The diagnosis of herpes simplex virus may requirevirological confirmation. Tzanck smear is an old, rapid, costeffective but nonspecific method that has been recently re-evaluatedas a method for the diagnosis of herpes virus infection. This studywas conducted to compare Tzanck smear and viral culture in thediagnosis of herpes simplex virus infection in patients clinicallysuspected to...

herpes simplex esophagitis (hse) has rarely been reported in immunocom­petent individuals. in a search of medline until october 2012, we found only one case of hse in a pregnant female. we present the first case of hse in a healthy 36-year-old female at 27 weeks gestation who recovered without an­tiviral therapy. normal 0 false false false en-us x-none fa

We present Barrier-based Simplex (Bb-Simplex), a new, provably correct design for runtime assurance of continuous dynamical systems. Bb-Simplex is centered around the Control Architecture, which consists high-performance advanced controller not guaranteed to maintain safety plant, verified-safe baseline controller, and decision module that switches control plant between two controllers ensure w...

Background: Herpes simplex virus (HSV) encephalitis is the most common cause of sporadic encephalitis, with significant morbidity and mortality that are effectively reduced by antiviral treatment. Herpes simplex infection in pregnant women rarely results in encephalitis. The most common symptoms of a pregnant woman with herpes simplex infection are colds and skin vesicles. Herpetic encephalitis...

Definition 20 (simplex). A k-simplex σ is the convex hull of a set P of k + 1 affinely independent points. In particular, a 0-simplex is a vertex, a 1-simplex is an edge, a 2-simplex is a triangle, and a 3-simplex is a tetrahedron. A k-simplex is said to have dimension k. A face of σ is a simplex that is the convex hull of a nonempty subset of P. Faces of σ come in all dimensions from zero (σ’s...

The dual simplex method is frequently the most efficient technique for solving linear programming (LP) problems. This thesis describes an efficient implementation of the sequential dual simplex method and the design and development of two parallel dual simplex solvers. In serial, many advanced techniques for the (dual) simplex method are implemented, including sparse LU factorization, hyper-spa...

Abstract The topological Tverberg theorem states that any continuous map of a ‐simplex into the Euclidean ‐space maps some points from pairwise disjoint faces simplex to same point whenever is prime power. We substantially generalize this certain CW complexes, including simplicial ‐spheres, ‐space. also discuss atomicity property.
