The aim of this study was to investigate how the other-race and baby schema effects interacted during face perception and recognition processes. 384 pictures representing Caucasian and non-Caucasian faces of infants and adults were shown to 24 Caucasian adult participants in an old/new recognition task. EEG/ERPs were recorded during face encoding and a successive memory session. ERP data showed a baby schema effect on N170, anterior N2 and P300 responses, which were larger to infant than adult faces, regardless of ethnicity. Conversely, an ORE was found, but only for adults faces, with N170 and N400 being larger to Caucasian than non-Caucasian adult faces. Consistently, reaction times were faster to unfamiliar faces of Caucasian than non-Caucasian adults, while no ORE was found for infants. SwLORETA, applied to the difference-waves (Caucasian - non Caucasian) elicited by adults faces (ORE), showed the strong activation of areas representing person-related information (i.e., inferior temporal gyrus), prejudice representation (i.e., the superior and middle frontal gyri), and theory of mind (i.e., the supramarginal gyrus and superior parietal lobe). The lack of ethnicity effect for infants faces is discussed in the light of their innate collative and attention capturing properties.

Objective: To test whether race/ethnicity affects stage or grade distribution at upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) diagnosis.
Methods: Within the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database 2004-2020, UTUC patients were identified. Multivariable logistic regression models tested for the association between race/ethnicity and stage as well as grade at diagnosis according to renal pelvis vs.

The number of non-Caucasian patients with nasal valve compromise seeking functional rhinoplasty is projected to increase in tandem with an increasingly diverse population in the United States. Gaining a deeper appreciation for the variances in nasal morphology amongst different ethnicities will help rhinoplasty surgeons perform accurate preoperative evaluations, optimize functional and esthetic outcomes, and maintain ethnic congruence with surgery.

Background: Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is a rare autoimmune disease most frequently characterized by a neuromyelitis optica (NMO) phenotype, comprising both simultaneous or sequential optic neuritis (ON) and longitudinally extensive transverse myelitis (LETM). Symptoms of brainstem, diencephalic and cerebral involvement may also occur. While most NMOSD patients test positive for serum aquaporin-4 (AQP4) antibodies, some seronegative patients test positive for oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-IgG (MOG-IgG).

Objectives: Survival from out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA) remains lower in rural areas. Longer Emergency Medical Services (EMS) response times suggests that rural OHCA survival may need to rely more on early bystander intervention. This study compares the rates of bystander Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) between rural and urban areas and examines societal factors associated with bystander CPR.
