Mitochondrial function is a key determinant of both excitability and viability of neurons. Here, we demonstrate seizure-dependent changes in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation in the epileptic rat hippocampus. The intense pathological neuronal activity in pilocarpine-treated rats exhibiting spontaneous seizures resulted in a selective decline of the activities of NADH-CoQ oxidoreductase (c...

Let G be an ordered abelian group and R((G)) the field of generalized series. In [KS05] we define exponential functions on the κ-maximal subfield R((G))κ; the subfield of series with support of cardinality bounded by a regular uncountable cardinal κ. The purpose of this note is to give a natural functional interpretation of the formal construction of [KS05]. To this end, the group G considered ...

The problem of finding subfield subcodes of generalized Reed–Solomon (GRS) codes (i.e., alternant codes) is considered. A pure linear algebraic approach is taken in order to derive message constraints that generalize the well known conjugacy constraints for cyclic GRS codes and their Bose– Chaudhuri–Hocquenghem (BCH) subfield subcodes. It is shown that the presented technique can be used for fi...

Objective Subfield-specific measurements provide superior information in the early stages of neurodegenerative diseases compared to global hippocampal measurements. The overall goal was to systematically compare the performance of five representative manual and automated T1 and T2 based subfield labeling techniques in a sub-set of the ADNI2 population. Methods The high resolution T2 weighted ...

Objective Previous research has indicated that there are potential associations between education and total hippocampal volume in the trajectory of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the correlation between education and hippocampal subfield volumes in the progression of AD has yet to be understood. This study examined the relationship between education, which is a standard proxy for cognitive ...

Albrecht et al. [1] at Crypto 2016 and Cheon et al. [4] at ANTS 2016 independently presented a subfield attack on overstretched NTRU problem. Their idea is to map the public key down to the subfield (by norm and trace map respectively) and hence obtain a lattice of smaller dimension for which a lattice reduction algorithm is efficiently applicable. At Eurocrypt 2017, Kirchner and Fouque propose...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although a few automated hippocampal subfield segmentation methods have been developed, there is no study on the effects of the diagnosis of Alzheimer disease on the hippocampal subfield volume with in vivo MR imaging. The aim of this study was to investigate hippocampal subfield volume differences between drug-naïve subjects with AD and healthy elderly controls by using ...

UNLABELLED The pain and aging subfield has grown dramatically, including a 6-fold increase in publications over the last 2 decades. This subfield is based on the assumption that pain in older and younger adults differs in clinically and theoretically significant ways. If this were not the case, data from younger groups could be generalized to older persons, and the subfield would not be needed....

In this paper, we determine the perfect subfields over which a field is separably generated. Let a field F of characteristic. p^O be an extension of a field £. A separating transcendence basis for the extension £/£ is a transcendence basis B of £/£ such that £ is a separable algebraic extension of £(£). If £/£ has a separating transcendence basis, we say that £ is separably generated over £. A ...
