Schizophrenic patients experiencing passivity phenomena believe their thoughts and actions to be those of external, or alien, entities. We wished test the hypothesis that voluntary motor action in such would associated with aberrant patterns activation within cerebral system. used H2(15)O PET study while they performed paced joystick movements on two occasions 4-6 weeks apart. During first scan symptoms were maximal, by second these had significantly improved five seven patients. Two control...
We used functional imaging of normal subjects to identify the neural substrate for perception voices in external auditory space. This fundamental process can be abnormal psychosis, when that are not true objects (auditory verbal hallucinations) may appear originate The as space depends on filtering by outer ear. Psychoses distort this involve cerebral cortex. Functional magnetic resonance was carried out 12 using an inside-the-scanner simulation 'inside head' and 'outside form typical...
Summary Cyclic Steam Stimulation (CSS) has been a commercial recovery process since the mid 1980s in Cold Lake area northeast Alberta. The current bitumen production is over 220,000 B/D using CSS from this area. To achieve desired injectivity saturated reservoir, steam usually injected at pressure above or close to fracture of formation. A relatively high drawdown created between wellbore and formation during phase, particularly early stage cycle where compaction solution gas drive are two...

Abstract This pilot study in a prospective cohort of 20 cryptogenic stroke patients showed that significant proportion has paroxysmal atrial fibrillation undetected by 24‐h Holter monitoring. However, longer monitoring with 28‐day was poorly tolerated and still insufficiently sensitive for detection. Further studies are urgently needed to elucidate the optimal timing, method duration cardiac rhythm following ischaemic stroke.
