Fifty-five patients with right-sided apoplectic brain lesions prospectively and consecutively collected, were analyzed as to the frequency of visual neglect. The syndrome was present in 18 patients, 10 of whom had left hemi- or quadrantanopia. In addition, two patients had anopia with Anton's syndrome. Only the visual neglect without field defects was closely related to denial of hemiparesis. The two components of the syndrome of visual neglect, defects in registering visual information from the left side and defective appreciation of own condition are described and analyzed. Psychological theories of the processes behind the syndrome of neglect have difficulties in joining the cardinal features of the syndrome satisfactorily. Theories on the specific role of the right hemisphere in connection with attention/arousal and complex gnostic functions are referred to in the discussion of the syndrome.

Retinal image registration is vital for diagnostic therapeutic applications within the field of ophthalmology. Existing public datasets, focusing on adult retinal pathologies with high-quality images, have limited number of image pairs and neglect clinical challenges. To address this gap, we introduce COph100, a novel and challenging dataset known as the Comprehensive Ophthalmology Retinal Image Registration dataset for infants with a wide range of image quality issues constituting the public "RIDIRP" database.

Tinidazole (TNZ), a common nitroimidazole antibiotic, is pervasive in aquatic ecosystems, posing potential threats to marine organisms. The environmental fate of TNZ, particularly under solar irradiation, and the associated secondary risks are not well characterized. Herein, the photochemical reactivity of TNZ and four other typical nitroimidazoles (i.

Background: Many signs of spatial dysgraphia and drawing errors after right hemispheric stroke (RHS) have been attributed to spatial neglect or impaired sensory feedback. Counterclockwise (contralesional) tilts of graphomotor productions remained to be explained.
Objective: To test whether graphomotor tilts stem from a tilted representation of verticality transposed to the top/bottom axis of the sheet of paper, using data from the DOBRAS cohort.

Introduction: Schistosomiasis (Bilharzia), a neglected tropical disease caused by parasites, afflicts over 240 million people globally, disproportionately impacting Sub-Saharan Africa. Current diagnostic tests, despite their utility, suffer from limitations like low sensitivity. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) remain the most common and sensitive nucleic acid amplification tests.

Background: The neglect of visual identity (VI) at the organizational level within higher education institutions (HEIs) has become a critical issue, while previous studies over the past decade has focused on HEI branding and reputation. This creates a potential gap in understanding HEI branding processes. Thus, this study aims to explore the relationship between VI and HEI reputation by integrating the Expressiveness Quotient (EQ) and experiential brand meaning at the organizational level.
