Effects of Disability, Gender, and Level of Supervision on Ratings of Job Applicants [PDF]
Using ratings of hypothetical job applicants with and without a disability obtained from both fulltime workers (n = 88) and undergraduates (n = 98), we examined the effects of disability (paraplegia, epilepsy, clinical depression, or non-disabled ...

In silico computation of functional SNPs of CYP2U1 protein leading to hereditary spastic paraplegia
Hereditary spastic paraplegia is a genetically heterogeneous neurological disease mainly characterized by growing spasticity in a lower limb area. Spastic paraplegia 56 (SPG56) causes the autosomal recessive form of hereditary spastic paraplegia.

In the period 1965-80, 125 women were treated because of paralysis or paresis of the lower extremities resulting from spinal trauma. In this report the causes of trauma, as well as the clinical and functional treatment of this group are discussed. The most frequent causes of trauma were falls from heights, from a tree, a ladder, a horse-cart as well as
