Background/Aim. A frequently reported phenomenon associated with impacted maxillary canines is root resorption (RR) of the adjacent teeth. The incidence RR also depends on radiographic imaging method used. aim study was to evaluate correlation between two methods: panoramic (orthopantomogram ? OPT) and cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), in diagnosing contact canine teeth existence their reso...

purpose: to measure the upper eyelid crease landmarks in an iranian population sample. methods: we studied 208 iranian subjects aged 30 to 50 years. upper eyelid crease height was measured in lateral, medial and central positions using calipers. levator function (lf) was also evaluated after exclusion of frontalis muscle function. results: mean age was 39.1±5.9 years and female to male ratio wa...

mechanoreceptors of foot sole likely contribute in the reflex regulations. stimulation of these receptors in the lateral aspect of the foot is corresponded to the lateral plantar division of the tibial nerve. therefore, it was hypothesized that repetitive low threshold afferents stimulation would have an inhibitory effect on the soleus h-reflexes. methods: sixteen normal subjects voluntarily pa...

Discrepancy between face word memory was measured with experimental continuous recognition tests and compared with right-left asymmetry of lateral ventricle size, measured with volumetric x-ray computed tomography, in 10 young and in 10 elderly subjects. All were right-handed and healthy. Old subjects differed significantly from young subjects on face but not word memory. Old subjects had signi...

An inverse source problem for the heat equation is considered. Extraction formulae for information about the time and location when and where the unknown source of the equation firstly appeared are given from a single lateral boundary measurement. New roles of the plane progressive wave solutions or their complex versions for the backward heat equation are given. AMS: 35R30, 80A23
