Huang, Yen and Lu (Chapter 18) review the role of SPECT in the diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson’s disease and its differentiation from other conditions characterised by parkinsonisms such as dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) and vascular parkinsonism. Accurate diagnosis is clearly critical for treatment and prognosis, and the authors provide a very useful overview of recent developments in dopamine transporter imaging which have led to important advances in this area.

Myocarditis is a clinical syndrome characterized by inflammation of myocardium. It can be produced by a myriad of etiologies including infectious, autoimmune, myocardial toxins, hypersensitivity reactions and physical agents. Virtually any infectious agent can produce myocardial inflammation and injury. Human myocarditis is most frequently caused by viral infection. Ongoing viral infection, myocardial destruction, and adverse remodeling can lead to persistent ventricular dysfunction and dilated cardiomyopathy.

Health care workers have the opportunity and the obligation to identify, treat, and educate women who are being abused. Health care institutions can make significant contributions to addressing violence against women by supporting clinicians and clients. Developing and institutionalizing national health-sector policies, protocols, and norms about violence call attention to the problem of gender-based violence, and help ensure quality care for survivors of abuse. This Outlook issue focuses on the reproductive health consequences of violence against women.

Open Access publishing has finally become available to Thoracic Surgery. This is a rather simple publishing concept that removes the charges and the need for compulsory subscription. This therefore enables readers worldwide to broaden their access to scientific publications online and, best of all, for free. The numbers are staggering. As I was writing this Preface, I went to the publisher’s web site and found the following: 3,8 million downloads for all books published, championed by Electrical Engineering (29,2%) whereas Medicine is making its way up (13,9%).

Cost competition between state regulators and the OCC, and among state regulators themselves, has been fueled by two important structural changes that have occurred in the banking indus- try over the past two decades. The number of bank charters has declined, largely because of increased bank merger and consolidation activity, and the size and complexity of banking organiza- tions has increased. The first change—a decline in the number of charters—means that the OCC and state regula- tors are competing for a declining member base.

I’ll wager that no one reading this essay knows (or perhaps wants to know) the author of the ridiculous sentence in its title. Since the publication of Roland Barthes’s “Death of the Author” 40 years ago, many readers have acquired a seasoned skepticism about the authority and dependability of the authorial voice.1 Although Barthes suggests that the emergence of the reader comes at the expense of the author, authors (and artists) did not die.

The vestibule of the inner ear senses head motion for spatial orientation and bodily balance. In vertebrates, the vestibular system consists of three fluid filled semicircular canals, which detect rotational acceleration, and two gravity receptor organs, the utricle and saccule, which respond to linear acceleration and gravity (Figure 1). The utricle and saccule are also referred to as the otolithic organs because they contain bio-crystals called otoconia (otolith in fish).

This paper addresses some of the microeconomic implications of this policy regime change, focusing on the flows of bank credit to the enterprise sector and analysing independently the determinants of corporate credit from the side of lenders and borrowers. To this effect we use results from the recent literature to formulate and specify equations reflecting the motivation behind lending and borrowing decisions. These equations are estimated econometrically using firm level data for Bulgarian firms for the period 1995-1999.

On the provider side, Beck, Demirguc-Kunt, and Martinez Peria collected indica- tors of financial outreach (such as number of bank branches and ATMs per capita and per square kilometer as well as the number of loan and deposit accounts per capita) from 99 country regulators for the first time in 2004. 12 These data were updated and expanded by the Consultative Group to Assist the Poor (CGAP) in 2008 and 2009 and by the International Monetary Fund in 2010. These data sets are important sources of basic cross-country indicators developed at a relatively low cost.

Strengthening Job Market Helps PIT Revenues. The PIT is the state’s largest General Fund revenue source and grows over time largely in line with the main component of taxable personal income: the wages and salaries of Californians. The most recent data for 2010 indicate that wages and salaries made up 73 percent of California resident tax filers’ adjusted gross income (AGI) and accounted for 63 percent of PIT revenue. Accordingly, the strength of trends in the state’s job market plays a major role in the PIT’s overall growth rate.
