The definition of the axis of orientation of the synlophe is modified for the Heligmosomoidea so that one or two axes may be recognized. When two axes are present, their inclinations to the sagittal axis are different on the right and left sides, and we propose to name them right axis and left axis, respectively. During the course of evolution, starting from a single oblique axis (plesiomorphic...

The anatomy of the posterior cricoid cartilage region was examined to obtain a better quantitative understanding of this region. The mean height and width of the posterior cricoid cartilage in the midline measured 24.5 mm and 25 mm respectively. The mean distance between the fibres for the left and right posterior cricoarytenoid muscles was 5 mm at the midpoint of the posterior cricoid cartilag...

Previous studies demonstrated an aftereffect of walking on a rotating treadmill, involving inadvertent circular navigation with eyes closed [podokinetic after-rotation (PKAR)]. We compared PKAR following unilateral and bilateral podokinetic (PK) stimulation to determine whether the left and right legs could be independently adapted. Each subject performed two sessions of PK stimulation, steppin...

We consider functions de ned by ground convergent left linear rewrite systems By restricting the depth of left sides and disallow ing de ned symbols at the top of right sides we obtain an algorithm for function inversion

Allometric growth pattern and body shape changes of the Green terror (Andinoacara rivulatus)(Cichlidae) were studied using landmark-based geometric morphometric (GM) and traditional methods, from hatching up to 1266 Hours Post Hatching (HPH) under culture conditions. The left side of specimens were photographed using digital camera and morphometric characters, including total length, head lengt...

introduction: correct interpretation of kidney images requires the knowledge of its normal size. this study aimed to establish normal values for kidney length and parenchymal thickness and identify the potential related factors in a group of iranian adults. methods: renal dimensions, including length and parenchymal thickness were measured by sonography in 103 individuals with no renal disease....

When we use the entropy method to get the tail bounds, typically the left tail bounds are not good comparing with the right ones. Up to now this asymmetry has been observed many times. Surprisingly we find an entropy method for the left tail that works in the resembling way that it works for the right tail. This new method does not work in all the cases. We provide a meaningful example.

Quantitative measurements of renal echogenicity using a graphic program show close correlation with renal histology in adult patients, but this has neither been applied in pediatric patients nor correlated with glomerular filtration rate (GFR). To determine the direct relationship between echogenicity and GFR, we retrospectively analyzed 91 patients with a solitary functioning kidney under the ...
