Critical node detection in temporal social networks, based on global and semi-local centrality measures. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
Nodes that play strategic roles in networks are called critical or influential nodes. For example, in an epidemic, we can control the infection spread by isolating critical nodes; in marketing, we can use certain nodes as the initial spreaders aiming to ...

Isolated central nervous system Whipple disease

Surgical Neurology International, 2022
Background: Whipple disease (WD) is an infection caused by Tropheryma whipplei, which might present in three different forms: classical, localized, and isolated in the central nervous system (CNS). Methods: We report the result of a systematic review of the literature on WD unusually presenting with exclusively neurological symptoms, including two

Isolated Central Sterna Clefts

African Journal of Paediatric Surgery, 2021
Sternal cleft is a rare congenital anomaly which is generally observed at birth. The aetiology remains obscure. Superior clefts are more frequent than inferior ones, and isolated central clefts are extremely rare. Surgery is recommended to protect the heart and other mediastinal contents from trauma and also to improve ...

Resolving the plasma profile via differential single inclusive suppression [PDF]

, 2006
The ability of experimental signatures to resolve the spatio-temporal profile of an expanding quark gluon plasma is studied. In particular, the single inclusive suppression of high momentum hadrons versus the centrality of a heavy-ion collision and with ...

Isolated Central Hypothyroidism in Short Stature [PDF]

Pediatric Research, 1995
Mild hypothyroidism can be difficult to diagnose, particularly when it is caused by deficiency of TSH or TSH-releasing hormone (TRH). Such central hypothyroidism occurs most often in association with growth hormone deficiency (GHD). Isolated central hypothyroidism has been considered rare.
