African horse sickness (AHS) is a hemorrhagic viral fever of horses. It is the only equine disease for which the World Organization for Animal Health has introduced specific guidelines for member countries seeking official recognition of disease-free status. Since 1997, South Africa has maintained an AHS controlled area; however, sporadic outbreaks of AHS have occurred in this area. We compared...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Allopurinol is a urate-lowering agent that is commonly used to prevent chemotherapy-related hyperuricemia. Allopurinol hypersensitivity syndrome (AHS) is a disorder involving multiple organs, which may be accompanied by cutaneous adverse reactions. We identified the characteristics and clinical outcomes of chemotherapy-associated AHS in patients with hematological malignancies. ...

The results of investigations of porous glasses (PG) and porous glasses-ammonium hydrogen sulfate ferroelectric nanocomposites (AHS-PG) are presented. On the basis of dielectric and calorimetric measurements it was shown that in the AHS-PG nanocomposites with average pore size of 44, 68, 95, and 320 nm the anomalies of dielectric permittivity and specific heat similar to those in bulk crystals ...

Limbic P300 potentials can be recorded within the mesial temporal lobes of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). To delineate possible mechanisms of their generation and pathological alteration, we analysed limbic P300s in 55 TLE patients with and 29 without Ammon's horn sclerosis (AHS) and correlated their amplitudes with neuronal cell counts in 30 histopathological specimens. Limbic P30...

Adaptive Hypermedia Systems (AHS) have long been mainly represented by domainor application-specific systems. Few reference models exist and they provide only a brief overview of how to describe and organize the ‘adaptation process’ in a generic way. In this paper we consider the process aspects of AHS from the very first classical ‘user modelling-adaptation’ loop to a generic detailed flowchar...

Extended Abstract The Automated Highway Systems (AHS) project at UC-Berkeley is part of a comprehensive program initiated by the U.S. government under the Intermodal Surface Transportation EEciency Act of 1991 to improve safety and reduce congestion in the surface transportation system. UC-Berkeley's PATH program is a partner in the nine-member National AHS Consortium (NAHSC)heed Martin and Par...
