OBJECTIVE To determine whether magnetic resonance (MR) imaging can be used to predict the presence of elevated intracranial pressure. DESIGN Retrospective case series. PARTICIPANTS Twenty patients with pseudotumor cerebri and 20 control subjects. INTERVENTION Magnetic resonance imaging. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The presence or absence of the following six neuroimaging signs was measured: (...

Sarcoidosis is a systemic multiorgan disorder of unknown etiology characterized by a non-caseating granuloma reaction. Ocular involvement has been reported in 25-60% of the patients. Seven percent of the patients with sarcoidosis may first see an ophthalmologist due to ocular complaints. This report aims to present our diagnostic and treatment approach to a female patient with significant unila...

The key role of the orbital degree of freedom to understanding the magnetic properties of layered ruthenates is discussed based on the 3-orbital Hubbard model coupled to lattice distortions, using numerical and mean-field techniques. In the G-type antiferromagnetic phase of Ca(2)RuO(4), recent x-ray experiments reported 0.5 holes/site in the d(xy) orbital, while d(yz) and d(zx) orbitals contain...

Embedded mean-field theory (EMFT) provides a simple, flexible framework for describing subsystems at different levels of mean-field theory. Subsystems are defined by partitioning a one-particle basis set, with a natural choice being the atomic orbital (AO) basis. Although generally well behaved, EMFT with AO partitioning can exhibit unphysical collapse of the self-consistent solution. To avoid ...

The high facioselectivity in the epoxidation of 4-deoxypentenosides (4-DPs) by dimethyldioxirane (DMDO) correlates with a stereoelectronic bias in the 4-DPs' ground-state conformations, as elucidated by polarized-pi frontier molecular orbital (PPFMO) analysis.

We report the first experimental realization of classical hypercorrelation, correlated simultaneously in every degree of freedom (DOF), from observing a Bell-type inequality violation in each DOF: polarization and orbital angular momentum (OAM). Based on such a classical hypercorrelation, we have realized the analogy of quantum superdense coding in classical optics. Comparing it with quantum su...

Background and Objective: Inflammatory pseudotumor is a lesion composed of proliferating spindle cells with mixed inflammatory infiltrates. Some authors have proposed the name inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor as a proper descriptive term rather than the vague inflammatory pseudotumor. The aim of this study was to verify the myofibroblastic origin of spindle cells in idiopathic orbital inflamm...
