We present an exceptional case of a patient with hemimegalencephaly and secondary intractable epilepsy treated with vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) and subsequent glioblastoma development in the hemimegalencephalic hemisphere 6 years after surgery. VNS (at age 18 years) led to a 60% reduction of intractable seizures. However, symptoms of intracranial hypertension suddenly occurred 6 years after s...

BACKGROUND The Schmid type of metaphyseal chondrodysplasia (MCDS) is generally due to mutations in COL10A1 encoding for type X collagen of cartilage. METHODS We performed a study on the genes coding for the RNA components of RNase MRP (MRPR) and RNase P (H1RNA) among 20 patients with diagnosis of MCDS and no mutations in COL10A1. RESULTS Two patients were found to be homozygous for a base s...

This paper presents a near-optimal distributed approximation algorithm for the minimumweight connected dominating set (MCDS) problem. We use the standard distributed message passing model called the CONGEST model in which in each round each node can send O(log n) bits to each neighbor. The presented algorithm finds an O(log n) approximation in Õ(D+ √ n) rounds, where D is the network diameter a...

Connected dominating set (CDS), also known as virtual backbone, is a fundamental structure in multihop wireless networks with a broad range of applications in routing and network management (cf. a recent survey [3] and references therein). A CDS is a subset of nodes U such that any pair of non-adjacent nodes can communicate with each other though the nodes in U (see Figure 1). For many applicat...

I.ABSTRACT WSN is stocked with many small nodes that are highly depends on energy .These nodes offers solutions to many real time problems that are in existence .The capability of these nodes are very limited, mainly for maintaining energy efficiency in WSN .There are various techniques available to effectively maintain the energy in the wireless sensor networks .Among these techniques the most...

Multiple plasmonic Fano resonances are generally considered to require complex nanostructures, such as multilayer structure, to provide several dark modes that can couple with the bright mode. In this paper, we show the existence of multiple Fano resonances in single layer core-shell nanostructures where the multiple dark modes appear due to the geometrical symmetry breaking induced by axial of...

We give a general review on the application of Ergodic theory to investigation dynamics Yang-Mills gauge fields and gravitational systems, as well its in Monte Carlo method fluid dynamics. In ergodic maximally chaotic dynamical systems (MCDS) can be defined that have nonzero Kolmogorov entropy. The hyperbolic fulfil Anosov C-condition belong MCDS insofar they exponential instability their phase...
