In this study, we retrospectively investigated speech intelligibility changes in 40 patients at the Australian Cranio-Facial Unit who underwent Le Fort I maxillary advancement between 1978 and 1995. Resonance, articulation, and velopharyngeal sphincteric function, which were assessed before and after surgery, were analyzed in conjunction with details of the surgery in an ...

General aspects of the deterioration and typical examples in some hot springs (Atami, Shirahama, Isawa.Kasugai, and Syuzenji Hot Springs) are outlined in this report in connection with the change of chemical constituents. (1) Deterioration of thermal spring resources generally occurs accompanied with the following phenomena: a) ...

The major effect of prolonged sleep loss on the EEG is alpha reduction and this is accompanied by deterioration of subjective ratings of feeling tone, by low 17-OHCS, by degradation of tracking performance, and by reports of hypnagogic illusions. Observed...

The authors describe the clinical and radiographic features in 7 patients with angioimmunoblastic lymphadenopathy (AIL) with dysproteinemia. This condition should be considered in any patient over 50 who presents with constitutional symptoms such as fever, weight loss, and malaise accompanied by involvement of the peripheral and hilar or mediastinal lymph nodes. Intrapulmonary ...

Future operational concepts contained in Joint Vision 2010 and the accompanying service level concepts emphasizes full spectrum, full dimensional dominance, allowing the application of force in time and space that cannot be equaled by a potential adversar...

The data on the morbidity in infectious diseases in the Chechen Republic in recent years are presented. As revealed from these data, under the conditions of the crisis situation the tendency towards the deterioration of the epidemiological situation began to show from the beginning of the 1990s. The growth of morbidity in some infections was registered, the outbreaks of ...

Young-of-the-year alewives, Alosa pseudoharengus, with extremely shortened caudal fins were observed at four locations in southern Lake Michigan between 1964 and 1968. Some of the fins appeared stunted or underdeveloped, but microscopic examination revealed a deterioration of the fins and not an ontogenetic abnormality. Deterioration of the caudal fin ...

During in vitro investigation of changes in mitochondrial function accompanying lipid peroxidation, it was found that cepharanthine, a biscoclaurin alkaloid, protects against such change. Results obtained were as follows: (1) Fe2+ induces lipid peroxidation of isolated mitochondria, resulting in diminished oxidative phosphorylation. (2) This diminishment largely depends on ...

The emotional intelligence profiles, gender differences, and adaptive success of 380 Dutch nurses caring for people with mental retardation and accompanying severe behavior problems are reported. Data were collected with the Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory, Utrecht-Coping List, Utrecht-Burnout Scale, MMPI-2, and GAMA. Absence due to illness and job ...

Assessed association of young age at treatment, cranial irradiation, and time since treatment with intellectual deterioration among 49 long-term survivors of childhood leukemia. Found no significant effects of treatment group (low-dose cranial irradiation versus high-dose chemotherapy) or age at treatment. Small but statistically significant decline in mean full-scale ...

Objective:To assess the influence on speech intelligibility of various signals used in tinnitus sound therapy.Materials and methods:We measured, in normal hearing subjects, the intelligibility of speech in the presence of three different sound therapy signals: wide-band noise, a recording of moving water, and a combination of tones.Results:For a given ...

Trauma-Teach is an interactive software for tutoring surgical trainees on medical trauma management procedures. Users of the system interact with a virtual patient suffering from trauma injuries. The task of the user is to stabilise the virtual patient, discover the underlying injuries and decide on an appropriate management plan. Artificial intelligence techniques are used to ...

Mexico's deteriorating security environment over the last 24 months has been accompanied by growing United States (U.S.) concerns over the stability of an important ally and key trading partner. The associated prospects of intensified cross-border narcovi...

The content of fluorescing products of lipid peroxidation (LFP) and hormone-stimulated lipolytic activity were determined in rat epididymal adipose tissue during a 29-day interval after whole-body gamma irradiation. An increase in LFP was accompanied by a decrease in lipolytic activity. It is suggested that these effects are interrelated and that the decrease in lipolysis in ...

Information is reported on the evolution of visibility anomalies and accompanying aerosol size spectra derived from cloud condensation nucleus measurements in the downwind plume of St. Louis. Estimates are acquired of standard meteorological data, horizontal visual range, and aerosol characteristics within the mixing layer upwind, over, and downwind of the metropolitan area by ...

This annotated bibliography contains a broad spectrum of studies, each designed to provide the reader with examples of plants that have proven capable of withstanding rapidly deteriorating urban atmospheres.

Continuous exposure of monkeys to 7.5 ppM NO/sub 2/ for 104 weeks produced a significant deterioration in the distribution of ventilation and alterations in blood O/sub 2/ tension. These were accompanied by histopathologic changes. Similar exposure to 0.5 ppM NO/sub 2/ had an unstated effect.

Variation of magnetic losses in grain-oriented electrical steel subjected to single and multiple laser treatments has been investigated. It is shown that successive application of laser barriers in several passes through a laser unit leads to a deterioration of magnetic properties accompanied by a bending of the sample. The surface subjected to the laser ...
