OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare nostril height, width, collumelar length, interalar distance and nostril symetry between unilateral complete cleft lip/palate patients undergoing nasoalveolar moulding (NAM) and incomplete cleft lip patients/palate with no need of presurgical moulding before and after cheiloplasty with primary nasal correction. Our study group included 18 patients...

We calculate decays of a Standard Model Higgs boson to a virtual massive particle and discuss how this depends on the massive particle total width. If the partial width of Higgs to a virtual massive particle can be measured this gives a measurement of that massive particle’s width. We discuss how one would go about measuring these partial widths of a Higgs experimentally, and how this could lea...

Tracheal ultrasonography was performed to measure the width of the tracheal ring shadow and to assess the clinical relevance of these measurements for identifying tracheal collapse. The first tracheal ring width (FTRW) and thoracic inlet tracheal ring width (TITRW) were measured on both expiration and inspiration. The mean of the FTRW width (129 dogs) was greater in expiration (10.97 plusmn; 1....

BACKGROUND When an individual is trying to fit into a narrow aperture, the amplitude of shoulder rotations in the yaw dimension is well proportioned to the relative aperture width to body width (referred to as the critical ratio value). Based on this fact, it is generally considered that the central nervous system (CNS) determines the amplitudes of shoulder rotations in response to the ratio va...

BACKGROUND Appearance of the face is a great concern to everyone, as it is a significant part of self-image. The study analyzed the clinical crown dimensions of the maxillary anterior teeth with respect to their apparent mesiodistal widths, width-to-height ratio to determine whether golden proportion existed among the South Indian population. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 240 dentulous sub...

We prove that among all constant width bodies of revolution, the minimum of the ratio of the volume to the cubed width is attained by the constant width body obtained by rotation of the Reuleaux triangle about an axis of symmetry. 2000 MSC: 52A15 Introduction The width of a convex body B in n-dimensional Euclidean space in the direction ~u is the distance between the two supporting planes of B ...

abstract use of organic fertilizer in production of organic products is important. a field experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of different levels of poultry manure on some growth characteristics and crop yield of iranian melons. the design was split plot in a randomized complete block design with four replications. levels of poultry manure (pm) included: 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 tons...
