In this paper, a case of Guillain-Barrè syndrome (GBS) as the first manifestation of CD in a 23-month-old child is reported. Case presentation: We describe a case of CD onset with peripheral neuropathy in a 23-month-old Bulgarian boy presenting with a sudden refusal to walk and absence of deep tendon reflexes in both lower limbs. Neurological symptoms were preceded by two months of gastrointestinal symptoms such as vomiting, abdominal distention, and clear signs of malnutrition and weight loss. When we evaluated the child six months after the onset of the symptoms, clinical and laboratory findings showed clear signs of peripheral neuropathy associated with malnutrition. Serum deamidated gliadin and tissue transglutaminase antibodies were therefore measured. The anti-gliadin levels were more than sixteen times higher than normal and the IgA anti-transglutaminase levels were four times higher than normal. Anti-endomysium antibodies were positive, and human leukocyte antigens (HLA) II typing confirmed a genetic predisposition to CD (DQ2 positive and DQ8 negative). Given the association between the clinical evidence of the disease and the results of the celiac screening tests, a diagnosis of CD was made without biopsy confirmation of the enteropathy. The child began a restricted gluten-free diet that led to complete recovery of the peripheral neuropathy, walking, reflexes, and overall improvement after three months on the diet. Conclusion: Our case underlines the rare but possible associations between CD and peripheral neuropathy in children as an onset symptom, even in the absence of gastrointestinal manifestations, thus suggesting that CD should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of peripheral neuropathy in children. A good knowledge of the extra-intestinal manifestations of CD is essential for the rapid introduction of a gluten-free diet that could be useful for the resolution of the neurological symptoms.KEYWORDS: Guillain-Barrè syndrome; atypical celiac disease; celiac disease; gluten-free diet; peripheral neuropathyPMID: 28708086 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph14070785 Free full textShareConflict of interest statementThe authors have no competing interests to declare.

This application claims priority of German application No. 10 2007 011 841.6 DE filed Mar. 12, 2007, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
The present invention relates to a transmission method for the inductive transmission in hearing devices and hearing device accessories by transmitting a signal from a transmitter to a receiver with a specific transmission power. The present invention also relates to a corresponding hearing device system.
Hearing devices are portable hearing apparatuses which are used to supply the hard-of-hearing. To accommodate the numerous individual requirements, different configurations of hearing devices such as behind-the-ear hearing devices (BTE), in-the-ear hearing devices (ITE), e.g. including conch hearing devices or channel hearing devices (CIC), are provided. The hearing devices given here as examples are worn on the outer ear or in the auditory canal. Furthermore, bone conduction hearing aids, implantable or vibrotactile hearing aids are also available on the market. The damaged hearing is stimulated either mechanically or electrically in such devices.
Essential components of the hearing devices include in principal an input converter, an amplifier and an output converter. The input converter is generally a receiving transducer, e.g. a microphone and/or an electromagnetic receiver, e.g. an induction coil. The output converter is mostly realized as an electroacoustic converter, e.g. a miniature loudspeaker, or as an electromechanical converter, e.g. a bone conduction receiver. The amplifier is usually integrated into a signal processing unit. This basic configuration is shown in the example in FIG. 1 of a behind-the-ear hearing device. One or more microphones 2 for recording the ambient sound are incorporated in a hearing device housing 1 to be worn behind the ear. A signal processing unit 3, which is similarly integrated into the hearing device housing 1, processes the microphone signals and amplifies them. The output signal of the signal processing unit 3 is transmitted to a loudspeaker and/or receiver 4, which outputs an acoustic signal. The sound is optionally transmitted to the ear drum of the device wearer via a sound tube, which is fixed with an otoplastic in the auditory canal. The power supply of the hearing device and in particular of the signal processing unit 3 is provided by a battery 5 which is likewise integrated into the hearing device housing 1.
The power of a transmitter in a data transmission system must be configured such that a level which is sufficient for demodulating the signal reaches the receiver even in the case of a maximum admissible distance between the transmitter and receiver. In this way, the attenuation of the signal, the interference and external faults are taken into consideration. The attenuation is very heavily dependent on the distance between the transmitter and receiver, so that under some circumstances a significantly stronger signal level reaches the receiver with shorter transmission distances than would be necessary for transmission purposes. This can lead to overloading and non-linear distortions in the receiver and to unnecessary energy consumption in the transmitter. Excessively high distortions can render the transmission completely impossible in the case of very short distances. Furthermore, in extreme cases, a very high reception level can damage the receiver. This behavior is particularly pronounced in the case of inductive transmission systems, such as in hearing devices and hearing device accessories, because the dependency of the signal attenuation on the distance is greater here than in the case of electromagnetic systems (e.g. Bluetooth, cellular radio).
With hearing devices, the unnecessary energy consumption during transmission was previously often accepted. On the receiver side, an automatic gain control (AGC) is mostly implemented, which reduces overloading and distortions. Also known from the cellular radio field is increasing the transmission power with poor availability, which is equivalent to reducing the transmission power with good availability (see EBERSPÄCHER, J.; VÖGEL, H.-J.: GSM Global System for Mobile Communication. Stuttgart: Teubner, 1997, pages 100-111. ISBN 3-519-06192-9).
The publication DE 102005005603 A1 discloses a data transmission apparatus for wireless data transmission for hearing devices and a corresponding method. So that hearing devices can be reached over longer transmission paths, a converter unit with a high frequency receiving device for receiving high-frequency signals of an external transmitting unit is proposed. The converter unit also has a mixer unit for mixing the high-frequency signal with a reference signal, so that an output signal can be generated, the frequency of which is lower by at least one order of magnitude and which is suited to inductive transmission. The output signal is then transmitted inductively from the converter to the hearing device.
The object of the present invention consists in proposing a transmission method for the inductive transmission in hearing devices and hearing device accessories, as well as a corresponding hearing device system, in which artifacts due to overloading and distortions are reduced on the one hand and the most minimal power consumption possible can be ensured on the other hand during transmission.
In accordance with the invention, this object is achieved by a transmission method for the inductive transmission in hearing devices and hearing device accessories, by transmitting a signal from a transmitter to a receiver with a specific transmission power, by returning an item of quality information relating to the received signal from the receiver back to the transmitter and dynamically modifying the transmission power as a function of the item of quality information.
A corresponding hearing device system with a transmitter for the inductive transmission of a signal to a receiver with a specific transmission power is also provided in accordance with the invention, with the receiver being embodied to inductively return an item of quality information relating to the received signal back to the transmitter and the transmission power of the transmitter being dynamically modifiable as a function of the item of quality information.
It is advantageously possible to dynamically adjust the transmission power to the current conditions of a transmission channel. In this process, the actual attenuation of the transmitted signal is taken into consideration.
The item of quality information advantageously contains an item of information relating to the received signal strength. It is thus possible for a predetermined minimum level of the received signal to be aimed for at the receiver, which provides for high-quality further processing.
Alternatively or in addition, the item of quality information can contain an item of information relating to a bit error rate of the received signal. The quality of the transmission channel is thus actually measured by the reliability with which information can be transmitted.
It is particularly advantageous if the transmission power is modified to such an extent, i.e. reduced or increased, until the received signal has reached a predetermined minimum quality. In this way, the transmission power can be reduced to a minimum, which on the one hand still ensures acceptable transmission quality and on the other hand does not result in unnecessary power consumption.
The aforementioned object is also achieved by a transmission method for the inductive transmission in hearing devices and hearing device accessories by transmitting a signal from a transmitter to a receiver with a specific transmission power, by detection of an item of distance information through the transmitter relating to a distance of the receiver from the transmitter and dynamically modifying the transmission power as a function of the distance information.
Provision is also made here for a corresponding hearing device system with a transmitter for the inductive transmission of a signal to a receiver with a specific transmission power, with a sensor for detecting distance information relating to a distance of the transmitter from the receiver being connected to the transmitter and the transmission power of the transmitter being dynamically modifiable as a function of distance information.
The advantage of this dynamic transmission power adjustment of the wireless data transmission systems lies in the fact that no feedback from the receiver to the transmitter is necessary. Instead, a purely transmitter-side control of the transmission power takes place here.
The distance information can preferably be detected on the basis of a misalignment of a transmitting coil of the transmitter. The misalignment is an indirect item of information relating to a distance at which a receiver coil is located adjacent to the transmitting coil for instance. If the distance of both coils is very close, the resonant frequency of an oscillating circuit changes in the transmitter for instance.
The detection of distance information can however also be carried out on the basis of a radiated transmission power. A principle of the transponder technology is thus used, in which the presence of a transponder coil in a magnetic field can be detected on the basis of the radiated power.
The present invention is described in more detail with referenced to the appended drawings, in which;
FIG. 1 shows a basic circuit diagram of a hearing device according to the prior art;
FIG. 2 shows a circuit diagram of a data transmission system according to the invention with dynamic transmission power adjustment according to a first embodiment and
FIG. 3 shows a circuit diagram of a data transmission system with dynamic transmission power adjustment according to a second embodiment.
For overview purposes, the exemplary embodiment of an inventive hearing device system illustrated in FIG. 2 only shows the essential transmission system having a transmitting unit 10 and a receiving unit 20. Each of these units is either integrated in a hearing device or in a hearing device accessory, e.g. a remote controller or a microphone which is external to the hearing device.
Here the transmitting unit 10 includes a power amplifier 11, the output power of which can be controlled and/or regulated. The output signal of the power amplifier 11 is applied to a transmitting coil 13 by way of a switch 12. During transmission, the switch connects the output of the power amplifier 11 to the coil 13. The receiving unit 20 has a corresponding receiving coil 23, which is connected to an amplifier 21 with low noise by way of a switch 22. This amplifier 21 can be controlled and/or regulated. In the case of reception, the switch 22 connects the receiving coil 23 to the minimally noisy amplifier 21.
A measuring unit 24 is connected to the output of the minimally noisy amplifier 21, which measures the received signal strength or establishes a bit error rate. This bit error rate or signal strength is now to be transmitted to the transmitting unit 10 for dynamic transmission power adjustment purposes. To this end, the switch 22 of the receiving unit 20 is reversed at a suitable point in time such that it connects the output of the measuring unit 24 to the receiving coil 23. The receiving coil 23 is now used for transmission purposes. To be able to apply the corresponding transmission power, a suitable power amplifier is integrated into the measuring unit 24.
On the transmit side, the coil 13 is now used to receive signals and the switch 12 connects the coil 13 to the input of a controller 14. This receives the signal strength information from the receiver and controls the power amplifier 11 accordingly. Attempts are always made here to minimize the transmission power as far as possible, but to guarantee a required minimum signal strength on the receiver in this process. The adjustment of the transmission power can be carried out iteratively in a number of steps, with current signal strength data being transmitted back to the transmitter during intervals in transmission.
The dynamic transmission power adjustment according to the exemplary embodiment in FIG. 2 is based on a bidirectional connection. The receiver 20 is namely able to inform the transmitter 10 about the received signal strength or the bit error rate during signal reception or both. The transmitter 10 can then reduce the transmission power in the case of an excessively large signal strength or increase the transmission power in the case of an excessively large bit error rate.
FIG. 3 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a transmitting unit 30 and a receiving unit 40 of an inventive hearing device system. The transmitting unit 30 also has a controllable and/or regulatable power amplifier 31. Its output is permanently connected here to a transmitting coil 32.
The transmitting unit 40 has a corresponding transmitting coil 42, the receive signal of which is permanently fed into the input of a minimally noisy amplifier 41.
In order to adjust the transmission power, the transmitter 30 has a sensor 33, which detects a distance 34 from the transmitter 30 to the receiver 40. The distance 34 does not have to explicitly concern a distance specification. Instead, the distance 34 can also be an item of information which indirectly stands for the distance between the transmitter 30 and receiver 40. In particular, the distance 34 need also not represent the shortest distance between the transmitter 30 and the receiver 40. The distance 34 can thus also illustrate a detour for instance, which the signal takes during data transmission as a result of obstacles. By way of example the distance 34 does not represent the shortest distance between the hearing devices worn on the ears, in the case of a binaural hearing device supply, but instead the signal transmission path around the head, when the signals take this path.
The sensor 33 supplies the determined distance signal 34 to a control unit 35, which now controls the power amplifier 31 as a function of the distance 34.
The sensor 33 can also obtain an item of distance information, by establishing that the transmitting field through the receiver 40 has changed. The change can be used as a measure for the distance. This principle is also used with transponders. Alternatively, the transmission power can also be detected by the sensor 33, which likewise changes as a function of the distance of the receiver 40 from the transmitter 30. Furthermore, it is likewise possible in accordance with transponder technology to herewith establish the distance of the receiver 40, and to which extent the receiver 40 e.g. the oscillation amplitude of the transmitter 30 modulates due to its presence.
In each exemplary embodiment illustrated in conjunction with FIG. 3, only the distance between the transmitter 30 and receiver 40 is taken into consideration for the dynamic transmission power adjustment. This distance is determined by the transmitter 30 irrespective of the receiver 40 on the basis of sensor data. The method can thus also be applied to purely unidirectional transmitter-receiver systems.
It is common to all afore-described exemplary embodiments that the transmitter is able to dynamically adjust the transmission power to the distance and/or noise level, instead of permanently operating with maximum transmission power. Consequently, the energy consumption in the transmitter can be reduced by the reduced transmission power and in the receiver by avoiding overloads respectively. Reduced, non-linear distortions resulting herefrom enable the transmission even with very short distances. Furthermore, the reduced transmission power does not result in damages to the receiver.

“[Monica Youn is] one of the most consistently innovative poets working today. . . . Youn mines [open questions] with precise skill as she circles ideas of barrenness and fertility. . . . Youn's poems, luminous fictions, also capture the sheer force of imagining the self.”―Tess Taylor, NPR “All Things Considered”
“Youn reminds readers that poetry is essential because of how it says what can’t be expressed through prose.”―The Washington Post
"Each poem feels urgent thanks to the tension created by language that is austere yet unsparing, and rhetoric that is restrained yet deeply emotional. . . . [Youn’s] intelligence feels extensive and inviting. . . . Blackacre stands as a gorgeous and intellectually scintillating addition to this esoteric and necessary tradition.”―Chicago Tribune
“Youn is technically innovative, easily moving from unusual numbered one-line stanzas, to prose poems, to staggered lines, to lines in columns that defy traditional reading. . . . Youn makes us realize that our longings and disappointments are captured in the images of our lives―both the immediate and the recollected.”―Houston Chronicle
“Blackacre is a visit to an in-between, liminal world, with much to think about while we are there.”―American Poet
“[Blackacre] explores everything from racial identity to intfertility, and dives deep into experiences of both wanting and not-wanting. . . . It’s grim, bleak, and haunting writing, and also beautiful.”―Bustle
“Monica Youn sends into the world a Renaissance woman’s exhibition on the unnerving ways we absorb and resist the whiplash of want snapping in our bellies.”―The Critical Flame
“Blackacre is practically a handbook on poetics. . . . There are many standout poems in this dazzling collection. . . . In every generation there is a handful of poets who challenge the way we think about language and how it is used. . . . It is to this distinguished company that Youn now belongs.”―Hyperallergic
“The poems in Blackacre are utterly gorgeous. Monica Youn’s voice is nimble and vivid, with the poetic sensibility to fit a planet through a needle-eye. . . . The poems in this book contain a restless lyric energy, whilst maintaining cool narrative composure.”―Librairie Drawn & Quarterly
“Blackacre is a marvel to read. . . . These poems are exceptional in their form and content as Youn shapes words into objects of clairvoyant beauty.”―The Journal (West Virginia)
“Monica Youn layers her poems with meaning as well as with references that span millennia: from Greek and Norse mythology, to poets like Francois Villon and John Milton, to films like The Passenger. Youn’s haunting poems rewrite and reanimate a landscape that is ultimately entirely her own.”―Fork & Page
“[Youn] tightly yet playfully interrogat[es] inheritance and legacy, real and fictional landscapes, and the particular bodily experience of a woman hoping to conceive. . . . Youn's lawyerly analyses―of life, of herself, her feelings, and of language―cut through the poetic to a place that lies between poetry, lyric memoir, and textual analysis.”―Publishers Weekly
“Every year it happens that I'm excited about too many new books. . . . National Book Award finalist Monica Youn brings out her third collection, Blackacre, which wrestles with the legal implications of places.”―Craig Teicher, NPR
“Monica Youn, quite simply, is one of the two or three most brilliant poets working in America today. In these revelatory poems, the reader encounters an exhilarating thinking-through of all that lyric form entails. No one can match her for impeccable distillation; we knew that before. But in Blackacre, we also encounter a more expansive, undefended version of the poet than any of her previous work had led us to expect. This book is a marvel; read it and read it again.”―Linda Gregerson
"Blackacre is virtuosic: poems so sharp and fine they cut deep past the body or the self or the mind―they're needles of rain carving out a canyon. Death is as close as birth, and as far. Youn dazzles with her enigmatic loopholes―the taut noose, the elusive umbilicus, the Möbius qualities of longing and lack and love―which shadow or shape who we are, and what can be called ours.”―Brenda Shaughnessy
“In Monica Youn's remarkable series of poems, words and objects are alike subjected to a probing intelligence that is at once philosophical and psychological. The precision of observation at every level is almost overwhelming. The reader cannot relax for an instant, nor does she want to because the unfolding thought, wire tight and tactile as well as conceptual, is so compelling and demanding of a complete attention that is more than rewarded.”―Stanley Fish

Iverson 'would like to forget about' this gameRecommend0
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (AP) -- Jerry Stackhouse and the Detroit
Pistons took full advantage of Allen Iverson's shooting problems.Jerry Stackhouse led the Pistons with a game-high 29 points.	Stackhouse scored 29 points, and Iverson missed his last 11
shots in the Pistons' 86-82 victory over the 76ers Tuesday night.	Iverson scored 26 points but finished 7-of-31. The Pistons took
over the game as Iverson went cold from the field after giving the
76ers a 62-54 lead with 3:24 left in the third quarter.	"When I leave here, I'm going to go looking for my shot because
it just left me tonight," Iverson said. "This is one of those
games in my six-year career that I would like to forget about.	"It happens and it's going to continue to happen as long as I'm
blessed to play this game."	Detroit won for the sixth time in the past seven games and ended
a six-game losing streak against Philadelphia, which had won 10 of
13.	Corliss Williamson scored eight of his 18 points over the final
few minutes of the period to help Detroit take a 64-62 lead, its
first since scoring the game's first basket.	The Pistons got an emotional lift at the beginning of their
comeback when Stackhouse barreled into Dikembe Mutombo after being
on the receiving end of one too many elbows. Mutumbo was called for
a foul.	"He's got to stop throwing the elbows around, I'm too old for
that foolishness," Stackhouse said. "I just told him, don't throw
those elbows anymore. He told me to 'Shut up,' and one thing led to
another.	"I'll take the 'W.' "	Philadelphia, which trailed by as much as seven in the final
quarter, pulled within two with 3:43 left, but couldn't get closer.	"This was a real big win for us, especially after being down so
much," Williamson said. "We set a goal to get 25 wins by the
All-Star break, but now we can get 26."	Detroit made just 39.5 percent of its shots, but held the 76ers
to 35.1 percent shooting.	"It was kind of a slugfest," Detroit coach Rick Carlisle said,
"but we're happy."	Philadelphia coach Larry Brown, who was without Derrick Coleman
and Aaron McKie, was relatively happy about the 76ers' effort.	"When Allen goes 7-for-31 and we have a chance to win, we're
doing a lot of things pretty good and that's the most important
thing," Brown said.	The 76ers led 23-20 after the first quarter, 45-39 at halftime
and by 11 points on two occasions in the third.	Mutombo had 17 points and 10 rebounds and Matt Harpring scored
14 for Philadelphia.	Cliff Robinson added 14 for Detroit, which ended a six-game
losing streak against the 76ers.Game notesColeman missed the game because of a swollen left knee. He
has missed 10 games because of injuries this season. ... McKie, who
is expected back next week, missed his sixth straight game with a
sprained left ankle and Achilles tendon. ... The 76ers picked
Stackhouse with the No. 3 pick in the 1995 draft, then traded him
during the 1997-98 season to Detroit with Eric Montross for McKie,
Theo Ratliff and a conditional first-round pick.
