PURPOSE To assess binocular detection grating acuity using the LEA GRATINGS test to establish age-related norms in healthy infants during their first 3 months of life. METHOD In this prospective, longitudinal study of healthy infants with clear red reflex at birth, responses to gratings were measured at 1, 2, and 3 months of age using LEA gratings at a distance of 28 cm. The results were reco...

The Ciidae genus Anoplocis was established by Makoto Kawanabe (1996) based on the type species Ennearthron poriae Nakane & Nobuki, 1955 from Japan. Additionally, he described the Japanese species Anoplocis ryukyuensis Kawanabe, 1996. However, the name Anoplocis was previously proposed by Arthur M. Lea (1913) for a genus of true weevils (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), with its type species Anoploci...

Consider a finite exchange economy first as a static, 1 period, economy and then as a repeated economy over T periods when the utility of each agent is the mean utility over T. A family of strategic games is defined via a set of six general properties the most distinct of which is the ability of agents to move commodities forward in time. Now consider Pareto optimal allocations in the T period ...

Shafer (Economelrica 48 (1980), 467476) proved that in a finite exchange economy value allocations exist, provided that each agent has convex, complete, transitive, compact and monotone preferences. However, if preferences are not convex, then value allocations may not exist. To remedy this difficulty we enlarge the set of value allocations by introducing the concept of approximate value alloca...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The endosaccular occlusion by using BPC has been useful in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms, but its limited durability remains a deep-seated drawback. The Matrix² coil, one of the bioactive-coated coils, had been developed to improve this limited durability. To evaluate durability of Matrix² coils after embolization of intracranial aneurysms, we retrospectively co...

OBJECTIVE To assess demographics, charges, and outcome measures by temporal and volume analysis in the treatment of vestibular schwannoma. DESIGN Cross-sectional analysis. SETTING, SUBJECTS, AND METHODS The California Hospital Inpatient Discharge Databases from 1996 to 2010. RESULTS A total of 6545 cases from 1996 to 2010 were identified. Of these, 86.2% occurred at high-volume centers (H...

BACKGROUND The cultivation of empathy for healthcare providers is an important issue in medical education. Narrative medicine (NM) has been shown to foster empathy. To our knowledge, there has been no research that examines whether a NM programme affects multi-professional healthcare providers' empathy. Our study aims to fill this gap by investigating whether a NM programme effects multi-profes...
