Contrast sensitivity, the amount of contrast required to discriminate an object, depends on spatial frequency (SF). The contrast sensitivity function (CSF) peaks at intermediate SFs and drops at other SFs. The CSF varies from foveal to peripheral vision, but only a couple of studies have assessed how the CSF changes with polar angle of the visual field.

Contrast sensitivity (CS), which constrains human vision, decreases from fovea to periphery, from the horizontal to the vertical meridian, and from the lower vertical to the upper vertical meridian. It also depends on spatial frequency (SF), and the contrast sensitivity function (CSF) depicts this relation. To compensate for these visual constraints, we constantly make saccades and foveate on relevant objects in the scene.

Contrast sensitivity, the amount of contrast required to detect or discriminate an object, depends on spatial frequency (SF): The Contrast Sensitivity Function (CSF) peaks at intermediate SFs and drops at lower and higher SFs and is the basis of computational models of visual object recognition. The CSF varies from foveal to peripheral vision, but only a couple studies have assessed changes around polar angle of the visual field. Sensitivity is generally better along the horizontal than the vertical meridian, and better at the lower vertical than the upper vertical meridian, yielding polar angle asymmetries.

Background: Sex disparities have previously been identified in surgical academia. This study examines sex differences in the top-cited contemporary general surgery articles and compares Altimetric Attention Score (AAS) and other impact metrics between male and female corresponding authors (CAs).
Methods: We conducted a bibliometric analysis of the 100 most cited articles published between 2019 and 2021 in each of the top 10 general surgery journals based on the 2021 Journal Impact Factor.

Visual abilities tend to vary predictably across the visual field-for simple low-level stimuli, visibility is better along the horizontal vs. vertical meridian and in the lower vs. upper visual field.
