The presentation of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is sometimes unusual and can mimic other disorders. There are a number of rare and varied manifestations of this disorder, reported in literature. The case reported here, presented with a hitherto unreported symptom; a dance-like compulsion in a case of OCD. This symptom is notable for the influence of cultural environment, on the content of symptom manifestation, in a psychiatric disorder. When one symptom in a disorder presents itself very prominently, the other symptoms, which are less prominent become masked; and need to be elicited by detailed assessment.
Telemedicine is an emerging technology in the area of remote medical services. It involves real-time communication between patients and healthcare providers through electronic equipment for diagnosing diseases. Biomedical signal processing is the process of measurement and analysis to deliver required information for doctors to make decisions. The identification of diseases is made upon collecting the biomedical signals from the patient’s body. Telemedicine concepts can be employed for this method. For remote diagnosis purposes, as the biomedical signal needs to transmitted through wireless media there is a need for efficiently coding them. In this paper, turbo coding is used and is transmitted through the AWGN channel. The performance of BER for different turbo decoding algorithms are compared to obtain error free transmission.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
