Injection Of Remote Myofascial Trigger Points For Pain Control: A Casereport, Chung-Li Tseng, Mu-Jung Kao, Li-Wei Chou, Chang-Zern Hong Dec 2008

Injection Of Remote Myofascial Trigger Points For Pain Control: A Casereport, Chung-Li Tseng, Mu-Jung Kao, Li-Wei Chou, Chang-Zern Hong

Rehabilitation Practice and Science

The purpose of this casereport is to demonstrate the remote effect of myofascial trigger point (MTrP) injection for pain control. It describes a patient suffering from chronic pain due to MTrPs in bilateral upper trapezius muscle with poor results to direct MTrP injection to upper trapezius. After injection to the MTrPs in bilateral extensor carpi radialis longus, extensor indicis, and first dorsal interosseous muscles, the effectiveness of MTrP injection to bilateral upper trapezius muscles remarkably enhanced. This patient finally became almost pain free. The reason for poor relief of pain immediately after the first MTrP injection (directly on the upper …

Thermal Modeling Of On-Chip Interconnects And 3d Packaging Using Em Tools, Lijun Jiang, Seshadri Kolluri, Barry J. Rubin, Howard Smith, Evan G. Colgan, Michael R. Scheuermann, Jamil A. Wakit, Alina Deutsch, Jason Gill

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The green (low power) chip design demands dramatic thermal and electrical simulation capabilities. In this paper, a novel thermal simulation approach for automatic thermal modeling of very large problems is introduced. This methodology can be fully integrated with existing solvers for electrical simulations, and make it possible to analyze practical on-chip and packaging thermal problems using the existing electromagnetic tools and geometry definitions, with very small additional effort. Its various applications to BEOL (on-chip wiring), thermal guideline design, and 3D integration (for multiple chip stacks) thermal modeling are investigated in this paper. We will demonstrate this capability with an automatic …

Late Neandertals In Southeastern Iberia: Sima De Las Palomas Del Cabezo Gordo, Murcia, Spain, Michael J. Walker, Josep Gibert, Mariano V. López Dec 2008

Late Neandertals In Southeastern Iberia: Sima De Las Palomas Del Cabezo Gordo, Murcia, Spain, Michael J. Walker, Josep Gibert, Mariano V. López

KIP Articles

Middle Paleolithic fossil human remains from the Sima de las Palomas in southeastern Iberia (dated to ≤43,000–40,000 calendar years before present) present a suite of derived Neandertal and/or retained ancestral morphological features in the mandibular symphysis, mandibular ramus, dental occlusal morphology, and distal hand phalanx. These traits are combined with variation in the mandibular corpus, discrete dental morphology, tooth root lengths, and anterior dental size that indicate a frequency difference with earlier Iberian and more northern European Neandertals. The Palomas Neandertals therefore confirm the late presence of Neandertals associated with the Iberian persistence of the Middle Paleolithic, but suggest microevolutionary …

Grey Measurement Based On Rough Set Granule Calculations, Jian Liu, Zhili Huang, Shunxiang Wu, Ruiyi Chen

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

This paper put the Rough set methodology based on the information table disposal to expand the dual (binary) relations described by the neighborhood system. To make full use of logic operations including AND operation by-bit, XOR operation by-bit and NOR operation by-bit, gains the certain and uncertain information among the various decision-making factors. The use of knowledge related with Grey system theory, establishes their mathematical model for decision making and data mining, according to the principle of the priority of certain information in decision-making and the ambiguity degree from small to big. At last, a new method for data mining …
