The effects of a specific hemispheric mode of functioning as indexed by lateralized seating preference was tested separately for male and female subjects in terms of their performance on the Harvard Group Scale of Hypnotid Susceptibility, Form A, the Creative Imagination Scale, and Betts' Questionnaire Upon Mental Imagery. Males, but not females, who preferred right-side seating scored higher on the Harvard scale but not on the Creative Imagination Scale or Betts' imagery questionnaire. Findings provide some support the notion that hypnotizability is associated with the right hemisphere for right-handed persons.

Autonomous driving technology has led to an increasing preference for rearward seating postures. However, current restraint systems exhibit significant shortcomings in protecting reclined occupants. In this paper, based on the existing restraint system components, various restraint strategies were configured to enhance the protection for reclined occupants.

Post-surgical rehabilitation advice after ankle fracture surgery, particularly regarding weight-bearing, varies significantly, leading to patient frustration and inconsistent recovery outcomes. This study aimed to establish a consensus for ankle fracture rehabilitation advice and identify content and implementation options for future interventions through consultation with healthcare professionals (HCPs). This study was part of the weight-bearing in ankle fractures (WAX) trial, a multicentre, randomised controlled trial.

Background: During electronic fetal monitoring, the positions provided to mothers by perinatal nurses and midwives are essential for ensuring maternal comfort, as well as maternal and fetal well-being. This study aimed to investigate the impact of various maternal positions during electronic fetal monitoring on maternal and fetal health.
Methods: This study was conducted in a randomized controlled trial design.
Positional lagophthalmos variability in facial nerve palsy with and without upper eyelid loading.

Department of Ophthalmology, Byers Eye Institute, Stanford University School of Medicine, Palo Alto, California, USA.
Purpose: Lagophthalmos from facial nerve palsy is traditionally measured with patients in an upright position and may fail to identify positional variability. This study aims to assess the effects of body position, surgical technique, implant material, and patient demographics on lagophthalmos.
Methods: A multicenter prospective study was performed to evaluate positional changes in paralytic lagophthalmos and the effects of various patient and surgical factors.

Brainstem cavernous malformations are relatively rare lesions with a higher tendency of hemorrhage than supratentorial cavernous malformations. Due to the compact arrangement of fiber tracts and nuclei of the region, any hemorrhagic event can cause severe neurological deficits. This eloquent architecture of the area also makes any surgical attempt challenging.
