Objects in the visual world can be represented in both egocentric and allocentric coordinates. Previous studies have found that allocentric representation can affect the accuracy of spatial judgment relative to an egocentric frame, but not vice versa. Here we asked whether egocentric representation influenced the processing speed of allocentric perception. We measured the manual reaction time o...

Introduction: Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most frequently occurring intrusive soft tissue sarcoma in the pediatric age group. Orbit is the most common location for a pediatric rhabdomyosarcoma, but it can occur in the oral cavity, pharynx, face and neck in the descending order of incidence. Rhabdomyosarcoma in the ear is extremely rare.   Case Report: A 5-year-old girl prese...

Schwannoma is a rare benign neural neoplasm derived from Schwann cells of the peripheral nerve sheath. Schwannoma accounts for 25% to 48% of all neoplasm cases in the head and neck region. Oral Schwannoma is an uncommon soft tissue tumor comprising of 1% of all Schwannomas. Tongue is the most common location for oral schwannoma. Occurrence of gingival schwannoma is very rare and less than 10 ca...

Right hemisphere lesions often lead to severe disorders in spatial awareness and behavior, such as left hemispatial neglect. Neglect involves not only pathological biases in attention and exploration but also deficits in internal representations of space and spatial working memory. Here we designed a new paradigm to test whether one potential component may involve a failure to maintain an updat...

the right ventricle (rv) is a complex structure with abstruse function that reveals important differences when compared to the left ventricle (lv), so it cannot be described as a simple geometric form and achromatic physiology. as an inference from this fact, in the present review, we aim to describe rv structure including the embryology, anatomy, and physiology and present a functional, hemody...

Adding brief flashes of light to a train of auditory clicks [R. Hari, Illusory directional hearing in humans, Neurosci. Lett. 189 (1995) 29-30] can alter the sounds perceived location within the head. In an experimental procedure adopted from Hari [R. Hari, Illusory directional hearing in humans, Neurosci. Lett. 189 (1995) 29-30], 16 observers listened over headphones to 8 binaural clicks (i.e....

The mandibular foramen is an important anatomical land mark. For procedures like inferior alveolar nerve block, implant treatment and mandibular osteotomies, a thorough knowledge of the location of the mandibular foramen (MF) and accessory mandibular foramina (AMFs) is a prerequisite. There are few references in the literature regarding the exact anatomical location of the mandibular foramen. T...
