The ability to co-ordinate the eyes and head when tracking moving objects is important for survival. Tracking with eyes alone is controlled by both visually dependent and extra-retinal mechanisms, the latter sustaining eye movement during target extinction. We investigated how the extra-retinal component develops at the beginning of randomised responses during head-free pursuit and how it inter...

background epstein barr virus (ebv) is one of the most common viral infections in human population. ebv has a significant role in pathogenesis of hodgkin's lymphoma, burkitt's lymphoma and nasopharyngeal carcinoma. the role of ebv in non-hodgkin’s lymphoma, diffuse large b cell (nhl - dlbl) in the head and neck is controversial. objectives the purpose of this study is to find out the ...

A veridical percept of ego-motion is normally derived from a combination of visual, vestibular, and proprioceptive signals. In a previous study, blindfolded subjects could accurately perceive passively travelled straight or curved trajectories provided that the orientation of the head remained constant along the trajectory. When they were turned (whole-body, head-fixed) relative to the trajecto...

Interest in dependency parsing increased because of its efficiency to represent languages with flexible word order. Many research have applied dependency-based syntactic analysis to different languages and results vary depending on the nature of the language. Languages with more flexible word order structure tend to have lower performances compared to more fixed word order languages. This work ...

carpal injuries are uncommon and are mainly seen in the younger age group. the incidence is unclear as many of the cases go undiagnosed. a 22-year-old male patient coming to the hospital after road traffic accident with head, face and left wrist injury. after immediate primary management the patient was taken up for a definitive procedure 4 days after the injury. scaphoid fracture was fixed wit...

The head direction (HD) system is composed of cells that represent the direction in which the animal's head is facing. Each HD cell responds optimally when the head is pointing in a particular, or preferred, direction. Although vestibular system input is necessary to generate the directional signal, motor/proprioceptive inputs can also influence HD cell responses. Previous studies comparing act...

OBJECTIVE The purpose was to examine differences between taekwondo kicks and boxing punches in resultant linear head acceleration (RLA), head injury criterion (HIC15), peak head velocity, and peak foot and fist velocities. Data from two existing publications on boxing punches and taekwondo kicks were compared. METHODS For taekwondo head impacts a Hybrid II Crash Dummy (Hybrid II) head was ins...
