OBJECTIVES To investigate the effect of different induced head-neck-jaw postures on head-neck relocation error among healthy subjects. METHODS 30 healthy adult male subjects participated in this study. Cervicocephalic kinesthetic sense was measured while standing, habitual sitting, habitual sitting with clenched jaw and habitual sitting with forward head posture during right rotation, left ro...

Introduction: Simulations of RF coils loaded with human head and body models are seen in the literature [1-5]. Little research, however, focuses on the loading effects of human head or body dimension on the B1 field, signal to noise (SNR) and specific absorption ratio (SAR). Human head sizes can vary greatly [6] and this may seriously affect these NMR parameters, especially at higher fields. Th...

The optimal strategies for improving locomotor stability in people with vestibulopathy remain unclear. To help identify likely targets for intervention, we sought to determine whether vestibulopathic postural control impairment during locomotor activity was more localized to either the head or the whole body. We used high curvature analysis (HCA) to quantify the smoothness of head- and body-vel...

BACKGROUND Adolescents do present with somatization disorder which is often neglected by pediatricians. This could have serious consequences if not curbed early. OBJECTIVES This study is aimed at determining the pattern and types of Somatization disorder among adolescents attending secondary schools in south east Nigeria. METHODS Somatization disorder was investigated among 485 adolescents ...

We performed three maneuvers of the positional test in supine patients: (1) body maneuver, in which patients turned only the body to one side while keeping the head as still as possible; (2) head-only maneuver, in which patients turned only the head to one side while keeping the body still; and (3) head and body maneuver, in which patients turned the head and body together to one side. The nyst...

The lipochromic mosaic canary is a cage bird breed present with different coat colors, red, and yellow, this presents significant sexual dichromatism. Dichromatism in canaries explained by differential carotenoid degradation the integument, rather than sex-specific variation physiological functions such as pigment uptake or transport. Males have an intense color compared to females especially a...

Video materials contain huge amount of information. Their storage in databases and analysis by various algorithms is a constantly developing area. This paper presents the process of basketball game analysis by AdaBoost algorithm. This algorithm is mainly used for face and body parts recognition, and was not tested on player detection in basketball. It consists of a linear combination of weak cl...
