The ability to resolve complex fiber populations in muscular tissues is important for relating tissue structure with mechanical function. To address this issue in the case of tongue, we employed diffusion spectrum imaging (DSI), an MRI method for determining three-dimensional myoarchitecture where myofiber populations are variably aligned. By specifically varying gradient field strength, molecu...

The purpose of the description this study is to create a just and democratic safe society; security, justice democracy can be achieved by diagnosing conflict as sublimation for differences in language culture society. So that multicultural, multilingual education at least minimizes local, national global community noise overcoming vertical-horizontal conflicts. This uses methods techniques anal...

At NTCIR-9, we participated in the cross-lingual link discovery (Crosslink) task. In this paper we describe our approaches to discovering Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK) cross-lingual links for English documents in Wikipedia. Our experimental results show that a link mining approach that mines the existing link structure for anchor probabilities and relies on the “translation” using cross-l...

The lingual nerve is a terminal branch of the mandibular nerve. It is varied in its course and in its relationship to the mandibular alveolar crest, submandibular duct and also the related muscles in the floor of the mouth. This study aims to understand the course of the lingual nerve from the molar area until its insertion into the tongue muscle. This cadaveric research involved the study of 1...

OBJECTIVE To examine the ultimate accuracy of bracket placement in labial vs lingual systems and in direct vs indirect bonding techniques. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty pretreatment dental casts of 20 subjects were selected. For each dental cast, four types of bracket placement were compared: labial direct (LbD), labial indirect (LbI), lingual direct (LgD), and lingual indirect (LgI). Direct bo...

Lingual orthodontics, among both young and adult patients, increased in popularity during last years. The purposes of the present investigation were to evaluate the shear bond strength (SBS) values and Adhesive Remnant Index (ARI) scores of different lingual brackets compared with a vestibular control bracket. One hundred bovine teeth were extracted and embedded in resin blocks. Four different ...

anatomy Mr. Wyatt Wingrave has been responsible, the text being freely illustrated by a series of excellent reproductions from his microscopical sections. On several questions the author's views widely differ from those of the majority of experienced laryngologists. Thus, for instance, he dwells at some length on the subject of varix of the tongue and hypertrophy of the lingual tonsil, and stat...

Abstract. This paper describes the participation of RICOH in the monolingual and cross-lingual information retrieval tasks on German Indexing and Retrieval Testdatabase (GIRT) in the Cross-Language Evaluation Forum (CLEF) 2004. We used a morphological analyzer for word decompounding and parallel corpora for cross-lingual information retrieval. The performance of cross-lingual information retrie...

BACKGROUND Some studies have been performed on assessing the anatomical variations of lingual foramen and its bony canals, in many different countries but no study has been performed in Iran yet. The purpose of this study is to assess the anatomical variations of lingual foramen and its bony canals with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) imaging in Isfahan. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a ...
