background: considering differences in head size and shape of different equine breeds, biometric parameters can be an attribute to a particular race. objectives: the purpose of the present paper is to give a numerical definition of morphological characteristics of head region of the darehshori horse. methods: twenty mature darehshori horses were studied biometrically. the ear length, ears dista...

in this study, hydraulic properties of low pressure drip irrigation systems were studied under laboratory conditions and using of the pipes that exist in iran. therefore, effect of various heads from 0.45 to 1.8m was evaluated for lateral pipe with outside diameter 32mm and length of 16, 30, 60 and also the lateral pipe with length 16 and outside diameter of 16, 20, 25 and 32mm, on hydraulic ch...

This study was conducted to examine morphometric and meristic characteristics alongside pigmentation patterns of bream larvae, Abramis brama orientalis, in four stages of larval development. Morphological characters including total length (TL), standard length (SL), notochord length (NL), head length (HL), head depth (HD), eye diameter (ED) and mouth width (MW) were examined from hatching time ...

A new species of anthiine fish, Plectranthias alcocki n. sp. is described and illustrated based on two specimens, (63.7-72.5 mm SL), recently collected from deep-waters of the Arabian Sea, off Kollam, Kerala, India. The following combination of characters distinguishes it from all other congeners: Dorsal-fin rays X, 15; anal-fin rays III, 7; pectoral-fin rays 14, all unbranched; pelvic-fin rays...

purpose: controversy has recently risen about the presence of compensatory ocular countertorsion (coct) after head tilt. this study was performed to define the functional range of this phenomenon. methods: cycloplegic autorefraction was performed on 80 eyes with regular astigmatism 2d. objective autorefraction was performed in normal position, right and left head tilt positions of 5º, 10º, 15º,...

background orientation of the stylohyoid complex (shc) may be important for evaluation of the patient with orofacial pain or dysphagia. objectives our purpose was to assess the length and angulations of shc using cone beam computed tomography (cbct). patients and methods in this study, 3d images provided by cbct of 69 patients (36 females, 33 males, age range 15-77 years) were retrospectively e...

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare head and neck alignment in children with visual and hearing impairments and its relation with anthropometrical parameters. Methods: The study was a descriptive, correlational analysis within which the relations between dependent and independent variables have been studied. Thirty children with poor vision, 30 children with hearing loss and fina...

Astyanax douradilho, new species, is described from the rio Tramandaí system, coastal drainage of Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil. The new species is distinguished from its congeners by possessing 37-39 perforated scales along the lateral line, 3-5 maxillary tricuspid teeth, 22-24 branched anal-fin rays, absence of a conspicuous dark stripe from humeral region to caudal peduncle, two vertically...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this anatomical study was to determine if a needle is able to reach the lateral pterygoid muscle during the application of dry needling technique. METHODS A dry needling approach using 2 needles of 50 to 60 mm in length, one inserted over the zygomatic process posterior at the obituary arch (for the superior head) and other inserted below the zygomatic process between the...
