The simplest model for explaining conduction defects in multiple sclerosis (MS) and other demyelinating diseases assumes that the only abnormality present is loss of myelin. The consequences of such an assumption have been investigated by numerical solution of a well-known set of differential equations describing conduction in a model demyelinated axon. In agreement with clinical findings, we s...

UNLABELLED The differential diagnosis of hearing loss with air and bone Auditory Brainstem Response in small children has not been enough studied in Brazil. AIM To compare air and bone Auditory Brainstem Response results in children under 2 months of age with normal hearing. STUDY DESIGN clinical with transversal cohort. MATERIALS AND METHODS 12 children who passed the hearing screening w...

introduction: ischaemic-reperfusion nerve injury has been suggested as the mechanism for post-tourniquet limb paralysis. as dexamethasone (dex) has been shown to prevent ischaemic-reperfusion process in some tissues, we tested the hypothesis that this drug would reduce tourniquet induced nerve injury. methods: 36 male wistar rats (200-250 gr) were chosen and divided randomly into 6 equal groups...

Boundary Conduction Mode (BCM) and Discontinuous Conduction Mode (DCM) control strategies are widely used for the flyback micro inverter. For the interleaved flyback micro inverter, the dominant losses with heavy load include the conduction loss of the power MOSFETs and diodes and the loss of the transformer while the dominant losses with light load include the gate driving loss, the turn off l...

The dielectric and conduction behavior of SrTiO3 thin films deposited on a SrTiO3 single-crystal substrate is studied. Without dc bias, an obvious dielectric ‘‘defect mode’’ in the dielectric loss is observed in the temperature range of ;100–200 K; however, no noticeable corresponding dielectric constant peak is observed. By applying a high dc bias ~>40 kV/cm!, a dielectric constant peak with f...
