RETRO repairs a desktop or server after an adversary compromises it, by undoing the adversary’s changes while preserving legitimate user actions, with minimal user involvement. During normal operation, RETRO records an action history graph, which is a detailed dependency graph describing the system’s execution. RETRO uses refinement to describe graph objects and actions at multiple levels of ab...

Behavioral evidence from the young suggests spatial cues that orient attention toward task-relevant items in visual working memory (VWM) enhance memory capacity. Whether older adults can also use retrospective cues ("retro-cues") to enhance VWM capacity is unknown. In the current event-related potential (ERP) study, young and old adults performed a VWM task in which spatially informative retro-...

introduction: nausea and vomiting after ear, nose and throat (ent) surgery is one of the most common and notable problems facing anesthesiologists in this area. this study was conducted to determine the effect of a pharyngeal pack on the severity of nausea, vomiting, and sore throat among patients after ear, pharynx, and throat surgeries.   materials and methods: this randomized clinical study ...

It is suggested that the brain response of a food odour sensed retro-nasally is related to satiation. The extent of retro-nasal aroma release during consumption depends on the physical structure of a food, i.e. solid foods generate a longer, more pronounced retro-nasal aroma release than liquid foods. The aim of this study was to investigate if a beverage becomes more satiating when the retro-n...

Retronasal (retro) and/or oral-cavity-only (OeD) smelling of vapor-phase agonists for the trigeminal chemoreceptive ion channel TRPM8 was studied. In a retro and OeD identification experiment. 1 of 6 previously practiced identifications (ID) was selected on a computer display under forced-choice conditions. Analyses of variance (ANOV A) found differences across odorants and retro and OeD. and f...
