introduction: synkinesis and facial asymmetry due to facial nerve palsy are distressing conditions that affect quality of life. unfortunately, these sequelae of facial nerve palsy are unresolved. the aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of a combination of biofeedback therapy and botulinum toxin a (btx-a) injection for the management of synkinesis and asymmetry of facial muscles.  ...

The Asymmetry consists of two claims. (A) That a possible person’s life would be abjectly miserable – less than worth living – counts against bringing that person into existence. But (B) that a distinct possible person’s life would be worth living or even well worth living does not count in favour of bringing that person into existence. In recent years, the view that the two halves of the Asymm...

Genetic variations were studied for 13 accessions of Lolium multiflorum using cytogenetical traits. Karyotype was prepared for 5 metaphases cells of each accession and the traits of total length (TL), long arm (LA), short arm (SA), arm ratio (AR) and centromer index (CI) were determined by micromeasure software. Six accessions were diploid and seven accessions were tetraploid, the basic chromos...

the global environmental concerns have put the light weighting of structures on the fore front of the research in transportation industry. among other light weight alloys, the transportation industry is considering magnesium intensive light body-in-white structure in automotive applications. although the research in modeling technique areas is very active, a suitable practical model mimicking t...

aim and background: the behavioral inhibition system (bis) and the behavioral activation system (bas) are considered as factors to verify the effects of personality significance on cortical activity. the present study explored the effects of the bis and bas on frontal asymmetry in response to affect stimuli. methods and materials: this study included 36 individuals (18 with high bas sensitivity...
