When conflicting syllables are presented in the auditory and visual modalities, two kinds of illusions have been reported by McGurk and MacDonald (1976): combinations (cluster responses) and fusions (fused responses). In the present experiment, we examined the lateralization issue of these illusions. In one half of the session the center of the TV screen was displaced 5° to the right of straigh...

Aligning a displaced maxillary canine into the dental arch is one of the most complicated problems in orthodontics. In cases of extremely high displacement, the tooth is frequently removed surgically. Because of the upper canines' significance to dental esthetics and functional occlusion, such a decision is a very serious one. The purpose of this report is to illustrate an interdisciplinary app...

We investigated whether left-hemisphere arachnoid cysts lead to reorganization of the language function using PET. A group analysis demonstrated that patients showed no more right-hemisphere activation than a matched control group. Several patients had clear language localizations in the left hemisphere during language comprehension; none of the patients showed right-hemisphere activation. We c...

A 30-year-old female had an acute myocardial infarction complicated by congestive heart failure. Angiography demonstrated an aneurysm in the area of the left aortic sinus. The aneurysm compressed and displaced the main trunk of the left coronary artery and the proximal portion of the left anterior descending artery. This aneurysm was considered to be the cause of the infarction. Aortic valve re...

Four lactating Holstein cows producing about 21 kg milk/day were fed complete rations containing 0, 5, 15, and 25% whole cottonseed in a 4 X 4 Latin square design. Diets were fed ad libitum. Periods were 21 days in length with total collections of feces and urine during the last 7 days of each period. Digestibilities o nitrogen, lipid, and energy increased with increasing cottonseed in the diet...

Migration of dental implants into the maxillary sinus is uncommon. However, poor bone quality and quantity in the posterior maxilla can increase the potential for this complication to arise during implant placement procedures. The aim of this report is to present a dental implant that migrated into the maxillary sinus and disappeared. A 53-year-old male patient was referred to us by his dentist...

1. A low-magnesium diet was fed to four sheep, each of which had been surgically prepared with a rumen fistula, a tube into the cranial one-third of the omasum, a tube to the cranial one-third of the abomasum and a re-entrant duodenal cannula. Mg, as gluconate or acate or acetate, was continuously infused for 12-14 d in turn into (1) the caudal duodenal cannula, (2) the abomasum, (3) the omasum...
