fractures with an intact posteromedial buttress, have been successfully treated with a sliding hip screw or blade.1 However, unstable intertrochanteric fractures tend to collapse even after adequate reduction and fixation with plating, and thus intramedullary nailing is recommended.2 Unstable intertrochanteric fractures include fractures with posteromedial comminution, a reverse oblique configu...

this paper classifies the amount and mechanisms in which the quality and desirability of walking experience in the urban shopping malls and centres. thus, a literature review can classify the cases in 6 categories of social spatial factor, attraction, convenience and comfort, a sense of security, access and permeability, wayfinding and legibility and social interactions. collecting data was car...

BACKGROUND The simultaneous tracking and identification of multiple moving objects encountered in everyday life requires one to correctly bind identities to objects. In the present study, we investigated the role of spatial configuration made by multiple targets when observers are asked to track multiple moving objects with distinct identities. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS The overall spati...

The high demands placed on the upper extremity in sporting activities subject the competitive athlete to common injuries of the hand. Treatment options are based on the fracture configuration, associated extremity injuries, and status of the surrounding soft tissue. Metacarpal and phalangeal fractures may usually be treated by closed, nonoperative methods, and most athletes may quickly return t...

purpose: to determine the prevalence of intraocular injuries in patients with blow-out fracture and also to evaluate the etiologic mechanism of orbital blow-out fractures methods: this study is a consecutive case series analysis of 116 patients with orbital blow-out fractures. the patients were visited by an ophthalmologist within 24 hours of trauma. results: ninety-one men and twenty-five wome...

We propose a model of self-organization of synaptic connections in V1, emphasizing lateral interactions. Subject to Hebbian learning with decay, evolution of synaptic strengths proceeds to a stable state in which all synapses are either saturated, or have minimum pre/post-synaptic coincidence. The most stable configuration gives rise to anatomically realistic "local maps", each of macro-columna...
