Event-related brain potentials of 10 full-term newborns in response to duration changes in complex, harmonic tones known to elicit prominent mismatch negativity (MMN) response in adults were investigated. Here we report that duration changes elicited prominent MMN responses in a 11 newborns tested. In contrast, MMN has been reported in as little as 50% of the infants in some previous studies using
Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is today a common method for the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis. Assessment of the results has been based mainly upon subjective evaluation, and only a few reports present objective measurements, In the present study, the 133-xenon washout technique was used for preoperative and postoperative evaluation of paranasal sinus ventilation in 12 patients selected for
Popular Abstract in Swedish Affärsklimatet för dagens energimarknad har varit händelserik de senaste två decennierna med introduktaion av den avreglerade elmarknaden och den ökade vikten av miljöfrågor vid design och inköp av energirelaterade anläggningar. Detta har bidragit med krav om nya analyskriterier, vilka inte bara påverkar den tekniska utformningen av komponenter och system, utan även tilThe business climate of the energy market has been eventful over the last two decades, particularly with the introduction of the deregulated electricity market and promotion of environmental issues. This has subsequently lead to new analysis criteria, influencing both technology requirements and production costs. To be able to manage all the questions that have arisen from this the knowledge of th
Anomi är ett centralt rättssociologiskt begrepp introducerat av Émile Durkheim (1858-1917) som beskriver ett tillstånd av oklarhet och normlöshet som överförs på individen vilket får denne att känna otillfredsställelse. Identifieringen av anomi indikerar rättsliga förändringsprocesser och tydliggör samtidens rättskultur när mönster bryts. Kränkningsersättning, s.k. rent ideellt skadestånd, som akt
About a hundred dust impacts per day were detected during the first week in December 1995 by Galileo during its approach to Jupiter. These impacts were caused by submicrometer-sized particles that were just above the detection limit. After the closest approach to Io on 7 December, impacts of these small particles ceased. This effect is expected for dust grains emitted from Io that exit the field o
Searches for pair-production of supersymmetric particles under the assumption of non-conservation of R-parity with a dominant LL (E) over bar or (U) over bar(D) over bar(D) over bar term have been performed using the data collected by the DELPHI experiment at LEP in e(+)e(-) collisions at centre-of-mass energies from 192 up to 208 GeV. No excess of data above Standard Model expectations was observ
We measured angular distributions of differential cross section, beam analyzing power, and recoil polarization for neutral pion electroproduction at Q(2)=1.0 (GeV/c)(2) in 10 bins of 1.17 <= W <= 1.35 GeV across the Delta resonance. A total of 16 independent response functions were extracted, of which 12 were observed for the first time. Comparisons with recent model calculations show that respons
OBJECTIVE: To study whether physical activity is associated with reduced occurrence of asymptomatic leg atherosclerosis. DESIGN: Longitudinal and cross-sectional analyses of the population-based cohort "men born in 1914". METHODS: Comparison of the systolic ankle/arm pressure index (AAI) at age 68 in groups who were sedentary, performed some activity, and performed regular physical training at 55
This paper presents a frequency-to-digital ΣΔ modulator designed in a digital 90 nm CMOS process, operating with a supply voltage of 0.2V. For a 7.5 μW power consumption, the SNR is 68.9 dB and the SNDR is 60.3 dB over a 20 Hz-20 kHz bandwidth. This work shows that the SNR/SNDR performance of this kind of ΣΔ converter can be adjusted over a wide range, while maintaining a state-of-the-art figure-o
Previous open-label clinical trials have provided proof of principle that intrastriatal transplants of fetal dopaminergic neurons can induce substantial and long-lasting functional benefits in patients with Parkinson's disease. However, in two recent NIH-sponsored double-blind trials, functional improvements were only marginal and the primary endpoints were not met. Severe off-phase dyskinesias we
Several migratory bird species show active cycles of hypertrophy and atrophy of nutritional organs and selected muscle groups. We develop a model for nutritional organs to identify the conditions under which such a pattern of structural change is optimal. Migrants may choose the size of two components of lean mass: a constant component that they carry throughout the entire migration period and a c

Eleonora's Falcon (Falco eleonorae) breeds in the Mediterranean region and is highly adapted for catching small birds on passage migration between Eurasia and their African winter quarters, which they feed their young. We studied gliding flight behavior of Eleonora's Falcon at a breeding colony located on a small island southwest of Sardinia, Italy. Gliding and soaring flight performance was measu
