Peripheral facial palsy following ventriculoperitoneal shunt. The lesson we have learned

2018

The most frequent complications after shunt surgery are infective and obstructive. Other types are less common, and eventually occur due to technical errors during brain ventricular puncture, opening the intraperitoneal cavity or the tunnelling of the catheter between the two points. Although rare, there are well-reported complications related to the poor positioning of the distal catheter, with perforation of organs and tissues.We report a very rare case of a male patient with normal pressure hydrocephalus submitted to ventriculoperitoneal shunt. During tunnelling of the shunt stylet, a peripheral facial palsy due to injury to the extra cranial segment of the facial nerve occurred.To the b…

Corneal opacity and copper levels of the Lewis syndrome after systemic chemotherapy

2020

Abstract Purpose To report a female patient of biclonal Lewis syndrome which consists of a trias: biclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, paraproteinemic keratopathy in form of a brownish discoid opacification at the level of Descemet's membrane and hypercupremia. After several years there was a conversion to multiple myeloma. Systemic chemotherapy led to a complete remission of multiple myeloma and to a normalization of the copper level in the blood that lasted five years. The corneal opacification remained unchanged. Observations A currently 66-year-old woman suffered from biclonal Lewis syndrome. On both eyes there is a central discoid yellow-brownish discoloration in the Pre-D…

Some critical remarks on the paper “A note on the metrizability of tvs-cone metric spaces” / Некоторые критические замечания о работе «Заметки о метр…

2018

This short and concise note provides a detailed exposition of the approach and results established by (Lin et al, 2015, pp.271-279). We show that the obtained results are not particularly surprising and new. Namely, using an old result due to K. Deimling it is indicated that tvs-cone metric spaces over solid cones are actually cone metric spaces over normal solid cones. Hence, there are only cone metric spaces over normal solid cones or over normal non-solid cones. One question still unanswered is whether an ordered topological vector space with a non-normal non-solid cone exists. / В представленных, в данной статье, заметках приведен подробный обзор методов и полученных результатов исследо…

Natural Addition of Ordinals

2019

Summary In [3] the existence of the Cantor normal form of ordinals was proven in the Mizar system [6]. In this article its uniqueness is proven and then used to formalize the natural sum of ordinals.

ON SYLOW NORMALIZERS OF FINITE GROUPS

2013

[EN] The paper considers the influence of Sylow normalizers, i.e. normalizers of Sylow subgroups, on the structure of finite groups. In the universe of finite soluble groups it is known that classes of groups with nilpotent Hall subgroups for given sets of primes are exactly the subgroup- closed saturated formations satisfying the following property: a group belongs to the class if and only if its Sylow normalizers do so. The paper analyzes the extension of this research to the universe of all finite groups.

Repressió de Normalistes i renovació / involució pedagògica

2014

La majoria dels estudis que, fins ara, s’han publicat al voltant de la depuració franquista del cossos docents han aduït com causa de sanció la seva participació en una pedagogia progressista. Però la investigació que estem duent a terme sobre el professorat de les Normals del País Valencià, ens duu a interrogar-nos sobre si la renovació pedagògica ha estat un càrrec decisori a l’hora d’imposar les sancions, perquè de l’anàlisi de les seues pràctiques escolars, de les seues publicacions i del seu procés depurador, hem arribat a la conclusió que la renovació pedagògica ha estat comuna a professors de signe ideològic contraposat i en cap cas es va aduïr com un sarg en contra. És la nostra int…

The Joint Distribution Criterion and the Distance Tests for Selective Probabilistic Causality

2010

A general definition and a criterion (a necessary and sufficient condition) are formulated for an arbitrary set of external factors to selectively influence a corresponding set of random entities (generalized random variables, with values in arbitrary observation spaces), jointly distributed at every treatment (a set of factor values containing precisely one value of each factor). The random entities are selectively influenced by the corresponding factors if and only if the following condition, called the joint distribution criterion, is satisfied : there is a jointly distributed set of random entities, one entity for every value of every factor, such that every subset of this set that corr…

Representation of Stationary Multivariate Gaussian Processes Fractional Differential Approach

2011

In this paper, the fractional spectral moments method (H-FSM) is used to generate stationary Gaussian multivariate processes with assigned power spectral density matrix. To this aim, firstly the N-variate process is expressed as sum of N fully coherent normal random vectors, and then, the representation in terms of HFSM is used.

Model selection using limiting distributions of second-order blind source separation algorithms

2015

Signals, recorded over time, are often observed as mixtures of multiple source signals. To extract relevant information from such measurements one needs to determine the mixing coefficients. In case of weakly stationary time series with uncorrelated source signals, this separation can be achieved by jointly diagonalizing sample autocovariances at different lags, and several algorithms address this task. Often the mixing estimates contain close-to-zero entries and one wants to decide whether the corresponding source signals have a relevant impact on the observations or not. To address this question of model selection we consider the recently published second-order blind identification proced…
