A study of the development of the eye in the cinnamon mouse, homozygous for the gene for microphthalmia (mi), has shown that the microphthalmia is due to failure of secondary vitreous formation associated with a coloboma. The retina is dystrophic but there is a residual population of large ganglion cells and the optic nerve also contains ganglion cells. All these ganglion cells have cytoplasm s...

non‑recurrent laryngeal nerve (nrln) is a rare anomaly which is reported in 0.3%‑0.8% of people on the right side and in 0.004% (extremely rare) on the left side. damage to this nerve during the surgical procedure may lead to severe iatrogenic morbidity and should therefore be prevented from being damaged. the best way to avoid this damage to the nerve is to identify the nerve with a systematic...

background :in addition to diagnosing the acute myocardial infarction (mi), stratifying high-risk patients and proper treatment strategies are important issues in managing patients complaining of chest pain and suspecting mi. many studies have been conducted to predict the occlusion site by interpreting the st segment deviations in electrocardiogram (ecg).additional posterior and right precordi...

With regard to the traditional MGM (1, m) model having jumping error in solving process, an direct prediction (denoted as DMGM model) is proposed and its solution method put forward at first. Second, considering inherent time development trend of system behavior sequence ignored model, optimized by introducing a polynomial term, can be abbreviated TPDMGM m, <math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/M...

Although the visual system rapidly categorizes objects seen under optimal viewing conditions, the categorization of objects seen under impoverished viewing conditions not only requires more time but may also depend more on top-down processing, as hypothesized by object model verification theory. Two studies, one with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and one behavioral with the same ...

Background and Purpose—There are limited data on the prognosis of patients with angiographically proved symptomatic stenosis of the intracranial vertebral artery or basilar artery. Methods—We studied 68 patients with 50% to 99% stenosis of one of the following arteries: intracranial vertebral (n531), basilar (n528), posterior cerebral (PCA) (n56), or posterior inferior cerebellar (PICA) (n53). ...

Factors contributing to the sex difference of in-hospital mortality after acute myocardial infarction (MI) are still unknown. We compared the clinical characteristics on admission and in-hospital outcome of consecutive 1,354 patients with acute MI between the 2 sexes. Age on admission was about 7 years older in women than in men. In-hospital death was significantly more frequent in women. Pulmo...
