Moebius syndrome is a rare nonprogressive congenital neurological disorder with a wide range of severity and variability of symptoms. This diversity is a consequence of dysfunction of different cranial nerves (most often facial and abducens nerves), accompanying orofacial abnormalities, musculoskeletal malformations, congenital cardiac diseases, as well as specific associations of Moebius and o...

The structure and stability of ca. 100 nonplanar constitutional isomers of the coronene molecule of general formula C(24)H(12) have been estimated by semiempirical and by ab initio calculations. The isomers studied are unbranched cyclic catacondensed structures and fall into two classes, viz., the belt (B) and the Moebius (M) type. The calculations have shown some of the M-isomers to be more st...

OBJECTIVE To improve diagnostic assessment in Moebius syndrome by (1) creating more selective diagnostic subgroups and (2) conducting genetic evaluation in a large patient cohort. DESIGN Prospective, observational study. PARTICIPANTS Attendees of 3 consecutive Moebius syndrome conferences held in the United States, with a prior diagnosis of Moebius syndrome, were invited to participate. M...

Following the pioneering work of Schapira, we consider topological Radon-type integral transforms on constructible Z-valued functions using the Euler characteristic as a measure. Contributions include: (1) application of the Schapira inversion formula to target localization and classification problems in sensor networks; (2) extension and application of the inversion formula to weighted Radon t...
