Ethnicity, native and/or foreign language knowledge, as well as the learned writing systems potentially influence the development of an individual's handwriting. The unique education system consisting of National schools, Chinese-medium vernacular schools, Tamil-medium vernacular schools, and Islamic religious schools in Malaysia may have established specific characteristic handwritten allographic features that deserve investigation within the intelligence context. This study was aimed to explore handwritten allographic features of handwriting samples from 120 subjects (30 writers from four different educational backgrounds mentioned above). Characteristic features which could be attributed to the study groups were statistically analyzed and identified. In this study, thirteen allographic features, including letters "A", "B", "D", "H", "p", "T", "t", "w", "X" and "x", were found to be discriminative. Such information could serve to indicate the primary education system undergone by a writer; enabling the comparison of different handwriting profiles and allowing characterization of writers to a specific group of people.

We report a patient with behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia who developed agraphia, irritability, perseverative and stereotyped behavior, and dietary changes. MRI revealed bilateral frontal convexity atrophy. Neuropsychological examination showed fluent aphasia with perseverative allographic agraphia, mild semantic impairment, and dysexecutive syndrome.

: The gold-standard treatment for end-stage heart failure is heart transplantation, but the lack of organ donors remains an important limitation in this field. An accurate selection of marginal hearts is fundamental to increase organ availability. : In our study we analyzed if recipients receiving marginal donor (MD) hearts, selected by dipyridamole stress echocardiography according to the ADOHERS national protocol, had different outcomes compared to recipients with acceptable donor (AD) hearts.

The repair of orthopedic and maxillofacial defects in modern medicine currently relies heavily on the use of autograft, allograft, void fillers, or other structural material composites. This study examines the in vitro osteo regenerative potential of polycaprolactone (PCL) tissue scaffolding, fabricated via a three-dimensional (3D) additive manufacturing technology, i.e.

Language performance requires support from central cognitive/linguistic abilities as well as the more peripheral sensorimotor skills to plan and implement spoken and written communication. Both output modalities are vulnerable to impairment following damage to the language-dominant hemisphere, but much of the research to date has focused exclusively on spoken language. In this study we aimed to examine an integrated model of language processing that includes the common cognitive processes that support spoken and written language, as well as modality-specific skills.
