To evaluate the long-term surgical outcomes of inferior oblique muscle recession (IO Rec) for the treatment of superior oblique palsy (SOP). We retrospectively studied 18 consecutive patients who had undergone IO Rec for the treatment of SOP. A follow-up of at least five years after the operation was required to be included in the study. In results the preoperative vertical deviation was 10.6 ±...

The implications of flight-level instrument wetting error removal upon the mean thermodynamic structure across the eyewall, buoyancy of rainband vertical motions, and vertical energy fluxes near the top of the inflow layer are studied. Thermodynamic quantities across the mean eyewall are found to increase at all levels. As a result, maximum radial gradients of each quantity are shifted from the...

PURPOSE Nonhuman primates reared with daily alternating monocular occlusion (AMO) during their first few months of life develop large horizontal strabismus, A/V patterns and dissociated vertical deviation (DVD). In addition, these animals often alternate or switch the fixating eye during binocular viewing. The purpose of this study was to characterize the alternating fixation behavior of these ...

CURRENT SCIENCE, VOL. 93, NO. 10, 25 NOVEMBER 2007 1422 *For correspondence. (e-mail: [email protected]) vertical measurements. Also, the time taken by the different stochastic methods is compared. The longer data spans give reliable results as well as less standard deviation for residuals. Using the single-frequency receiver, the standard deviation of the residuals is the same for all three sto...

structural evolution of alborz has already been mentioned by many researchers all over the world. central alborz is located in the bending of the eastern and the western alborz. damavand volcano is situated in the bending part along the great and active faults such as mosha, north of baijan, ask, nava and ira. the nava and ira faults are in the eastern side of damavand volcano with a trend of e...

The objective of the present study was to investigate frontal morphological asymmetry in the mandibular molar region in terms of tooth axis and skeletal structures using vertical MPR sections in jaw deformity accompanied by facial asymmetry. Subjects consisted of 15 patients with jaw deformity accompanied by facial asymmetry aged 17.4 years to 37.8 years. There were four men and eleven women. B...

The long duration of the 2010 Eyjajallajökull eruption provided a unique opportunity to measure a widely dispersed volcanic ash cloud. Layers of volcanic ash were observed by the European Aerosol Research Lidar Network with a mean depth of 1.2 km and standard deviation of 0.9 km. In this paper we evaluate the ability of the Met Office’s Numerical Atmospheric-dispersion Modelling Environment (NA...

We analyze the differences between the horizontal and the vertical component of the simple random walk on the 2-dimensional comb. In particular we evaluate by combinatorial methods the asymptotic behaviour of the expected value of the distance from the origin, the maximal deviation and the maximal span in n steps, proving that for all these quantities the order is n for the horizontal projectio...
