introduction: cephalometry is an efficient tool for anthropometric studies. this study sought to assess facial dimensions and types of adults residing in qazvin (iran) and dera ghazi (dg) khan (pakistan). methods: in this cross-sectional study, a total of 300 ethnic populations of qazvin and 365 ethnic populations of dg khan aged between 18-55 years were randomly selected and evaluated. the sub...

Facial nerve palsy (FNP) changes facial expression and leads to functional problems in facial movement and negative psychological effect on patients. Fortunately, some of FNP problems recover completely, but some others remain with some sequelae like asymmetry, muscle contracture, synkinesis, and hyperkinesias that need rehabilitation. This article aimed to investigate physiotherapy modalit...

TSUCHIDA, S., MORITA, T. and KONDO, S. A New in Vivo Method of Recording of the Electrical Activities of the Renal Pelvis. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1982, 136 (2), 233-234 A new method is described which enables in vivo recording of electromyogram from the pelvicalyceal border (PC border) of the canine renal pelvis. At the PC border slow rising-potentials with constant intervals are recorded through...

As advances in digital media technology continue to engage users in myriad ways, a critical question facing researchers of user experience is whether the human mind and body have evolved to meet such technological advancements? We answer this question in our lab by measuring users’ psychophysiological responses (ECG, EEG, EDA, EOG and FEMG) to specific structural features of media interfaces su...

We develop a forward model for uterine electromyogram (EMG) and magnetomyogram (MMG) contractions. Our model aims to describe the electrophysiological aspects of uterine contractions during pregnancy at both the cellular and organ levels. In particular, we apply a bidomain approach for modeling the propagation of the myometrium transmembrane potential on the uterus and use it to compute the act...

Introduction: Tessier facial cleft is among the rarest facial clefts reported in literatures and there are many issues arguing about its multidisciplinary repairing techniques. Tessier number 4 and 5 are extremely rare facial anomalies. There are few literatures describing these clefts and their surgical modalities. Number 5 Tessier cleft begins medial to oral commissure in the upper lip and ex...
