The central compensation of vestibular tonus imbalance due to unilateral peripheral vestibular lesions has been repeatedly documented. Little is known, however, about the central compensation of vestibular tonus imbalance due to central lesions. Dorsolateral medullary infarctions (Wallenberg's syndrome) typically cause a central vestibular tonus imbalance in the roll plane with deviations of pe...

One of the main challenges of geostatistics in reservoir characterization is to populate a portion of 3-D earth model with its petrophysical properties. This operation must be carried out while still honoring the information available along well logs: in our jargon, we say that it must be conditional. No restriction is required on this conditioning information, either in number or in its geomet...

CT of the neck revealed a 5.1 by 4.0 by 5.5 cm well defined soft tissue mass medial to the right SCM. The mass was splaying the carotid artery and internal jugular vein. The right internal jugular vein was deviated and compressed along the anterior lateral aspect of the mass. An enhancing vessel was noted within the posterior aspect of this mass. There was a mild low density along the posterior...

Children and adults were tested on a forced-choice face recognition task in which the direction of eye gaze was manipulated over the course of the initial presentation and subsequent test phase of the experiment. To establish the effects of gaze direction on the encoding process, participants were presented with to-be-studied faces displaying either direct or deviated gaze (i.e. encoding manipu...

OBJECTIVES To find if the presence of epistaxis after nasal trauma can be used to predict post-traumatic external nasal deformity or a symptomatic deviated nasal septum. METHODS Retrospective analysis of all patients seen in the fractured nose clinic by the first author between 17 October 2003 and 27 February 2004. Presence of epistaxis, newly developed external nasal deformity, and the prese...
