Countermanding an action is a fundamental form of cognitive control. In a saccade-countermanding task, subjects are instructed that, if a stop signal appears shortly after a target, they are to maintain fixation rather than to make a saccade to the target. In recent years, recordings in the frontal eye fields and superior colliculus of behaving non-human primates have found correlates of such c...

BACKGROUND Visual scanpath analyses provide important information about attention allocation and attention shifting during visual exploration of social situations. This study investigated whether patients with schizophrenia simply show restricted free visual exploration behavior reflected by reduced saccade frequency and increased fixation duration or whether patients use qualitatively differen...

Introduction Intertrochanteric fracture comprises nearly half of hip fractures occurring in elderly individuals with osteoporosis. Considering the age group of its population, they are often associated with multiple comorbidities which warrant optimum management with less surgical. Case Report This article reports the case of 56-year-old women with in tertrochanteric fracture associated with ...

Inguinal hernia is the oldest disease ever since known to mankind. Laparoscopic hernia repair is now a wellestablished way of treating inguinal hernias. Laparoscopically hernia can be repaired either by TAPP or TEP but later is preferred as it has advantages. But the role of fixation is still controversial. The proposed study was conducted in the Department of Surgery VMMC & Safdarjung hospital...

Intertrochanteric fractures are significantly increasing in older adults. Treatment choices for trochanteric include intramedullary nail and extra medullary fixation, even though the appropriate treatment such remain controversial. The present study was aimed to assess optimal option intertrochanteric determine which method i.e. proximal femoral nailing (PFN) dynamic hip screw fixation (DHS) gi...

OBJECTIVES Pilon fracture is a complex injury that is often associated with severe soft tissue damage and high rates of surgical site infection. The goal of this study was to analyze and identify independent risk factors for surgical site infection among patients undergoing surgical fixation of a pilon fracture. METHODS The medical records of all pilon fracture patients who underwent surgical...

AIM Insufficient attention for the Ki-67 immunohistochemistry has been given to the importance of tissue handling for surgical breast cancer specimens. We sought to investigate the effect of fixation status on the Ki-67. METHODS We examined the effect of fixative, time to and duration of fixation using surgical specimens, and finally, compared the paired Ki-67 index in the tumour between core...

DYOPTYKA’s innovative solution for the reduction of speckle noise in projection displays, using a phase randomizing deformable mirror, is shown to achieve good performance both within a single 1 μs pulse duration and through sequences of such pulses.
