Abstract
The aims of this study were (A) to investigate whether the number of years of forensic experience affected the accuracy with which forensic experts (FEs) were able to age bruises and (B) to identify the properties and colours of a bruise that were utilized by FEs in their assessment of bruise age. Th...

Abstract
Three parameters significantly affected postoperative astigmatism: preoperative amount of corneal astigmatism, eccentricity of anterior cornea, and location of the main incision. The mean surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) was calculated to be: superior = 0.82 diopters (D), superior-nasal = 0.50 D,...

Abstract
This study aimed to introduce a technique using computer-assisted image analysis for measuring body segmental angles during a static strength element on parallel bars. Criterion validity and intra-rater reliability of measurements were evaluated using digital photography, skin markers and a gravity-r...

Abstract
Regular skin self-examination is suggested as a means to detect melanomas at an early stage and thus improve prognosis. Compliance, however, has seldom been assessed in a routine clinical setting and anonymously.

Motor Control (15)2 2011
Abstract
We assumed that stopping an arm did not eliminate the coupling but introduced a new constraint. Within the model, superposition of two factors, a command to stop the ongoing movement of one arm and the coupling between the two oscillators, has been able to account for the observed effects. The model...

Abstract
We describe a method for automatically detecting new vessels on the optic disc using retinal photography. Vessel-like candidate segments are first detected using a method based on watershed lines and ridge strength measurement. Fifteen feature parameters, associated with shape, position, orientation...

Abstract
The mean follow-up period was 48 months. Radiation retinopathy occurred in 107 patients (36%). Actuarial incidence of radiation retinopathy was 30% (CI 24%-36%) at 24 months post-treatment. In the multivariate model, the predictive factors were a younger age (hazard ratio [HR] 0.98, p...

Abstract
Instability of the second metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint is relatively common, and although the anatomy of the joint has been well described and plantar plate pathology has been identified, little has been written about its exposure and repair.

We present a novel Tensor-Spline-based framework for facial image analysis. We show that, using this framework, the facial apparent BRDF field can be accurately estimated while seamlessly accounting for cast shadows and specularities. Further, using local neighborhood information, the same framework...

Abstract
In monkey eyes with a temporary CRAO as a model for nonglaucomatous optic nerve damage, the lamina cribrosa is significantly thicker than in monkey eyes with experimental glaucomatous optic nerve damage. It may suggest that the loss of optic nerve fibres might not be the reason for the thinning o...

Abstract
We suggest that presence of a continuous middle trigonid crest at the dentine surface is primitive and the lack of any trigonid crest is derived. Genetic drift may explain the high frequency of trigonid crests in H.neanderthalensis. However, H. neanderthalensis still appears to be derived relative t...

In the almost 100 years since Wilson's description of the illness that now bears his name, tremendous advances have been made in our understanding of this disorder. The genetic basis for Wilson's disease - mutation within the ATP7B gene - has been identified. The pathophysiologic basis for the damage...
