autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder originating from early childhood; nevertheless, its diagnosis is in older ages. in addition to heredity, environmental factors are also of great significance in the etiology of the disease. dermatoglyphic patterns, albeit varied, remain stable for a lifetime and yield a large number of patterns upon examination. studies have shown a significant associatio...

An unresolved issue in behavioral studies of hemispheric asymmetry is why both left-handers and right-handers show a right ear advantage at the group level. In the present study we screened left-handers for left- versus right-hemisphere speech dominance with fMRI by comparing right versus left hemisphere frontal lobe activity (in Broca's area) in a silent word generation task. A left hemisphere...

We recently demonstrated that drowsiness, indexed using EEG, was associated with left-inattention in a group of 26 healthy right-handers. This has been linked to alertness-related modulation of spatial bias in left neglect patients and the greater persistence of left, compared with right, neglect following injury. Despite handedness being among the most overt aspects of human lateralization, st...

The aim of this paper is to study the behaviour of certain sequence of nonlinear Durrmeyer operators $ND_{n}f$ of the form $$(ND_{n}f)(x)=intlimits_{0}^{1}K_{n}left( x,t,fleft( tright) right) dt,,,0leq xleq 1,,,,,,nin mathbb{N}, $$ acting on bounded functions on an interval $left[ 0,1right] ,$ where $% K_{n}left( x,t,uright) $ satisfies some suitable assumptions. Here we estimate the rate...

IMPORTANCE Optimization of surgical outcomes after colectomy continues to be actively studied, but most studies group right-sided and left-sided colectomies together. OBJECTIVE To determine whether the complication rate differs between right-sided and left-sided colectomies for cancer. As a secondary analysis, we investigated hospital length of stay. DESIGN We identified patients who underw...

For the purpose of determining neurophysiological mechanism of math anxiety, we conducted an EEG measurement for 22 sixth grade elementary students including 11 students with high math anxiety (HMA group), and 11 students with low math anxiety (LMA group). We found that in HMA group, delta wave was significantly generated from the right frontal lobe, and in LMA group, four paths are clearly con...
