The aim of the present study was to establish the Tweed's norms for Nepalese people, compare the values between the Nepalese male and female samples as well as to compare with the Caucasians. One hundred lateral cephalogram was taken by the same x- ray technician and later traced by manually and all three angular parameters Frankfort Mandibular plane Angle (FMA), Frankfort Mandibular Incisal An...

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM Nasal breathing is the major pattern of air intake. Changes in breathing pattern alter the posture of the head, jaws and tongue that could change pressure on the jaw and teeth and affect their growth. PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the relationship between septal deviations (SD) per se and in combination with concha bullosa (CB) on maxilla; particularly the d...

The multiangular and off-track pointing capabilities of CHRIS/PROBA introduce a strong distortion on the geometry on the resulting images. In order to make full scientific use of the data some information about the geometry of acquisition is needed. In particular, the viewing azimuth and zenith angles must be known, and the images must be geometrically corrected to make possible multi-angular a...

This open-access collection of 11 selected articles covers a small but quite diverse and interesting part of the much wider range of scientific topics presented at the 16th International Conference on Small-Angle Scattering (SAS2015) in Berlin. The topics contained here describe the particular directions in which small-angle scattering is developing at the current moment and which will become i...

Objective: Anserine, which is abundant in avian species and in a wide range of fish such as bonito and tuna, is reported to have anti-fatigue effect. Although chicken soup and bonito soup is traditionally used to recover from physical fatigue, it is generally difficult to verify the effect in humans. This study was to directly demonstrate the anti-fatigue effect of oceanic anserine in humans. M...

Small-angle scattering (SAS) technique is applied to study the nano and microstructural properties of spatial patterns generated from chaos game representation (CGR). Using a simplified version of Debye formula, we calculate and analyze in momentum space, the monodisperse scattering structure factor from a system of randomly oriented and non-interacting 2D Sierpinski gaskets (SG). We show that ...

We present a previously unreported series of five cases of acute angle closure glaucoma associated with watching the Australia soap opera "Neighbours". Two cases were bilateral and associated with watching two episodes of "Neighbours" on the same day. The pathogenesis, and possible role of watching soap operas in the causation of primary angle closure glaucoma is discussed.

For orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning there are various ways to assess the jaw discrepencies. Using parameters such as ANB, Wit’s appraisal, Beta, Yen, W angles, with some limitations. To overcome these, MKG angle Tau were proposed.
 Aim objective: The present study assesses predictability of its correlation previous parameter. Materials methods: A total 105 lateral cephalograms...

Objective(s) The objective of this study was to document and explain bilateral differences in the Q angle. Materials and Methods Two hundred limbs of healthy adult Indian volunteers were studied. The Q angle was measured using a goniometric method with the subjects supine, quadriceps relaxed and lower limbs in neutral rotation. The relative lateral placement of the tibial tuberosity with res...
