Background and Importance: Symptomatic Rathke’s cleft cyst is a rare lesion that often presents without any symptoms.  Case Presentation: We report a 40-year-old female with symptomatic Rathke’s cleft cyst located in the sellar and suprasellar region. She presented with visual disturbance, headache, weight gain, hypothyroidism and amenorrhea. The patient underwent surgery and ...

We present a method to classify movies on the basis of audio-visual cues present in the previews. A preview summarizes the main idea of a movie providing suitable amount of information to perform the genre classification. We perform the initial classification into action and non-action by computing the visual disturbance feature of every movie. Visual disturbance is defined as a measure of moti...

Cortical blindness is defined as bilateral visual loss due to disruption of the pathways beyond lateral geniculate body. Visual disturbance a result cortical lesion can manifest in different ways. Anton's syndrome one manifestations blindness, which presents denial vision associated with confabulation setting obvious loss. This case illustrates challenges diagnosing emergency setting.

Visual suppression of caloric nystagmus was studied in five patients with hereditary ataxia before and after administration of physostigmine. All patients had an initial abnormal ocular fixation index that improved after physostigmine was given. The data indicate that there is a partly reversible disturbance of visual-vestibular interaction in patients with hereditary ataxia, caused by an impai...

OBJECTIVE To examine the importance of platform motion to the transfer of performance in motion simulators. BACKGROUND The importance of platform motion in simulators for pilot training is strongly debated. We hypothesized that the type of motion (e.g., disturbance) contributes significantly to performance differences. METHODS Participants used a joystick to perform a target tracking task i...

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease is increasingly being reported in the last three decades as a result of increased awareness for the disease. Various studies have reported an annual incidence of 0.5-1.5 cases of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease per million of general population. However, in our country, like other developing countries, the disease is still under-reported. Herewith, we described our clinical ...

We report two cases of macular edema treated with the oral administration of furosemide. The first case presented here was a 78-year-old male patient with visual disturbance of the left eye. He had been taking an oral agent for diabetes and had chronic renal failure for 7 years. From 10 days prior to the visit, he had visual disturbance of the left eye accompanied by systemic edema. There were ...

RATIONALE Melanoma metastases to the pituitary adenoma (MMPA) are extremely rare, with only 1 reported case. To date, the melanoma metastasis to the existing prolactinoma has not been reported in literatures. PATIENT CONCERNS We report a case of 62-year-old woman presented with progressive visual disturbance and hyperprolactinemia. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated the presence of a rou...

THE ophthalmoscopic appearances of hereditary degenerative macular lesions vary greatly, as do the functional disturbances produced, the time of onset, the course, and the mode of inheritance. Behr (1920), finding the time of onset fairly constant in the members of one sibship, classified hereditary macular degeneration on this basis, starting with the congenital cases (Best, 1905), proceeding ...

In this paper, two multirate repetitive controllers are proposed, namely, repetitive intersample disturbance rejection (RIDR) and repetitive perfect tracking control (RPTC). First, in order to develop RIDR, multirate intersample disturbance rejection algorithm is reviewed which was proposed by authors for general digital control systems with restricted sampling frequency. Second, RPTC method is...
