Research, directly assessing sex-dependent differences in global versus local processing is sparse, but predominantly suggesting that men show a stronger global processing bias than women. Utilizing the Kimchi-Palmer task however, sex differences in the number of global choices can only be found in children, but not in adults. In the current study 52 men and 46 women completed a computerized ve...

BMJ Case Rep Published online: [please include Day Month Year] doi:10.1136/bcr-2015210902 DESCRIPTION A 30-year-old man born of a non-consanguineous marriage presented with asymptomatic peeling of skin throughout his body, sparing palms and soles, since birth. There was no preceding history of redness or fluid-filled lesions over the affected are...

The lower eyelid skin will retain its pigmentation and wrinkles after a routine lower blepharoplasty. Phenol peeling with croton oil combinations produces a complementary lightening of the skin and an improvement of the wrinkling. Deep peeling with phenol and croton oil has been controversial because of the hypo-pigmentation that generally results. This report explains the technique used by the...

An approach to reconstruct a quasi-phase-matching grating by using a discrete layer-peeling algorithm is presented. Experimentally measured output spectra of Šolc-type filters, based on uniform and chirped QPM structures, are used in the discrete layer-peeling algorithm. The reconstructed QPM structures are in agreement with the exact structures used in the experiment and the method is verified...

Glyphosate-resistant Palmer amaranth is the most troublesome pest in Arkansas cotton production. The prolific seed production, high germination rate, and rapid growth coupled with the lack of post emergence herbicide control options make this species a constant threat to cotton farmers. Sustainable control of Palmer amaranth requires careful management of seed in the soil seedbank. To emphasize...

Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) is known to be glyphosate-resistant and one of the most common and troublesome weeds in Arkansas cotton production. Glufosinate is known to provide good control of 1-4 inch Palmer amaranth, but control of larger weeds is erratic. The lack of control provided by glufosinate on large weeds may be caused by coverage issues. The objective of this study was to ev...

A simple model for the peeling process of pressure-sensitive adhesive tape is presented. The model consists of linear springs and dashpots and can be solved analytically. Based on the modeling, the curved profile of the peeling tape is spontaneously determined in terms of viscoelastic properties of adhesives. Using this model, two experimental results are discussed: critical peel rates in the p...

The peeling procedure is a valuable method for the aged skin, photo aging, acne scars and melasma. It should be performed by dermatologist. Pre peeling preparation of the skin is very important to prepare the skin for this procedure. It can be archived by applying the mask with acids twice a week. The caring of the skin after procedure is also very important for the success of the treatment. Sa...
