objective:in this study, we assess long-term effects of vertical dome division (v.d.d) and suture techniques in patients with bulbous nose deformity and then compare the efficiency of these methods. material and methods: in this study 70 patients with bulbous nose deformity were divided into two equal groups of a and b in which group a with suture (transdomal and interdomal) technique and grou...

background: the technique of vertical dome division or tip defining, involves incising the lateral crura and vestibular skin at or lateral to the dome or tip defining point. the incision di-vides the lower lateral cartilage into a lateral segment and a medial segment, which are advanced anteriorly and sutured together to increase tip projection. the present study aimed at assessing a new vertic...

PURPOSE To test the hypothesis that there is a major genetic determinant of vertical disc diameter (VDD) and vertical cup-to-disc ratio (VCDR) in a large, population-based sample. METHODS Data were collected from 3654 individuals, 49 years of age or older, participating in the Blue Mountains Eye Study. VDD and VCDR were determined from stereo optic disc photographs. Commingling analyses in SK...

OBJECTIVES To discuss overprojected and broad nasal tips, to overview treatment options, and to relate our experience with the hockey-stick technique. DESIGN A retrospective review (1975-2005) was conducted. Patients were selected from a computerized rhinoplasty database of operative cases. The database was used to extract a subset population that had received the hockey-stick tip procedure a...

On-chip memories generally use higher supply (VDD) and higher threshold (Vth) voltages than those of logic parts to improve the static noise margin and to suppress the static energy consumption. However, the higher VDD increases the dynamic energy consumption. This paper proposes a hybrid memory architecture which consists of the following two regions; (1) a dynamic energy conscious region whic...

OBJECTIVE Validation of a bedside test to measure the monocular and binocular subjective visual vertical (SVV). METHODS Monocular and binocular measurements of the SVV were made in 30 healthy subjects (mean age 46.1 +/- 16.4 years) and 30 patients with acute peripheral or central vestibular lesions (mean age 51.3 +/- 17.1 years). The established method uses a hemispheric dome (adjustment of a...
