the concept of right (left) quotient (or residual) of an ideal η by anideal ν of an l-subring μ of a ring r is introduced. the right (left) quotients areshown to be ideals of μ . it is proved that the right quotient [η :r ν ] of an idealη by an ideal ν of an l-subring μ is the largest ideal of μ such that[η :r ν ]ν ⊆ η . most of the results pertaining to the notion of quotients(or residual) of ...

Knowledge of the frequency and remission of aphasia is essential for the rehabilitation of stroke patients and provides insight into the brain organization of language. We studied prospectively and consecutively an unselected and community-based sample of 881 patients with acute stroke. Assessment of aphasia was done at admission, weekly during the hospital stay, and at a 6-month follow-up usin...
