Bilateral field advantage in visual crowding

Thirty randomly oriented T’s were presented in a circle around fixation at an eccentricity of 11° such that each T was crowded by its neighbors. Two locations within the same hemifield (unilateral condition) or one location in each hemifield (bilateral condition) were precued for subsequent probing. Observers were then asked to report the orientation of a target T at one of these locations. A bilateral field advantage was found: target identification was better when the two precued targets were in different hemifields than when they were within the same hemifield. This bilateral advantage was absent when only targets were presented, without any distracters. Further controls showed that this advantage could not be attributed to differences between horizontal and vertical target alignments or to visual field anisotropies. A similar bilateral advantage has been reported for multiple object tracking (Alvarez, G. A., & Cavanagh, P. (2005). Independent resources for attentional tracking in the left and right visual fields. Psychological Science 16(8), 637-643) and other attentional tasks. Our results suggest that crowding also demonstrates separate attentional resources in the left and right hemifields. There was a cost to attending to two targets presented unilaterally over attending to a single target. However, this cost was reduced when the two crowded targets were in separate hemifields.     

Pulmonary nodules 10 mm or less in diameter with ground-glass opacity component detected by high-resolution computed tomography have a high possibility of malignancy

OBJECTIVES: For the histological diagnosis of small lung cancers of 10 mm or less in diameter (< or =10), resection by video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) with computed tomography (CT)-guided marking is feasible. One problem is that a small number of these pulmonary nodules are malignant. We retrospectively analyzed CT images of pulmonary nodules to find better criteria to select candidates for resection among patients with small pulmonary nodules. METHODS: Ninety-four patients with indeterminate peripheral pulmonary nodules underwent wedge resection by VATS. High-resolution CT using a 1.25 mm slice included the area of lesions. Nodules were classified by size (< or =10, 11 to 20, >20 mm) and whether they had a ground-glass opacity (GGO) component. RESULTS: The histology of all 94 nodules showed 52 primary lung cancers, 6 metastatic tumors, 5 benign tumors, 8 intrapulmonary lymph nodes, and 23 inflammatory nodules. Ninety-three percent of nodules larger than 20 mm, 75% of nodules 10 to 20 mm, and 43% of nodules < or =10 mm were malignant. Introducing a classification according to GGO component to nodules, malignancy was detected in 88% of nodules with a GGO component and in 30% of nodules without a GGO component among nodules < or =10 mm. Nodules < or =10 mm with a GGO component showed a statistically significant (p < 0.01) correlation with malignancy. CONCLUSIONS: Pulmonary nodules < or =10 mm with GGO should be considered to have a high possibility of malignancy and to be candidates for resection by VATS.

Bilateral Mid-Diaphyseal Femoral Stress Fractures in the Elderly

Abstract Background: Osteoporosis is characterized by low bone density and poor bone mineralization. Mid-diaphyseal stress (insufficiency) fractures of the femur caused by osteoporosis are rare. The symptoms of these lesions are vague and confusing. The physician must be alert to the possibility of femoral shaft stress fractures when evaluating an elderly patient complaining of back, hip or leg pain. Case Study: A 72-year-old osteoporotic female patient with bilateral mid-diaphyseal stress fractures of the femur is reported. The diagnosis of femoral shaft stress fracture in the elderly is very difficult when based on physical findings and plain radiography only. A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan or nuclear scintigraphy is necessary for early diagnosis. In the described case, the patient had an excellent result after surgical treatment with intramedullary nails. Conclusion: MRI or nuclear scintigraphy must be obtained to exclude the possibility of femoral shaft stress fractures in the elderly. In the absence of contraindications, surgery is the best solution for this kind of lesion.     

青少年特发性胸椎侧凸后路凸侧胸廓成形术的并发症分析

目的:探讨青少年特发性胸椎侧凸患者后路凸侧胸廓成形术的并发症发生原因及预防措施。方法:自1999年1月～2006年9月,共有410例青少年特发性胸椎侧凸患者在我科施行脊柱侧凸后路矫形内固定术,同时行同一切口下的凸侧胸廓成形术,男86例,女324例。年龄11～18岁,平均14.7岁。术前剃刀背畸形15°～48°,平均32°。统计并发症发生情况。结果:凸侧胸廓成形的肋骨切除数平均4.2根,术后剃刀背畸形0°～14°,平均6°。无手术死亡病例。24例(5.8%)术中发生壁层胸膜穿孔,6例(1.5%)术后胸腔积液,3例(0.7%)术后气胸,1例(0.2%)术后呼吸困难需间歇性吸氧,34例(8.3%)术后有局部反常呼吸,17例(4.1%)术后诉不同程度的胸壁疼痛,9例(2.2%)诉局部皮肤麻木或感觉减退,3例(0.7%)早期手术的患者术后肋骨残端突出明显,1例(0.2%)皮下血肿,1例(0.2%)皮肤压疮。经相应处理后,患者大多恢复满意。319例平均随访28个月,仅4例仍残留有胸壁皮肤感觉减退。结论:凸侧胸廓成形术是一种安全、有效的改善"剃刀背"畸形的手段。提高手术技巧,术后积极处理,可以减少甚至避免相关并发症的发生。

Bilateral perioral sensory symptom after unilateral stroke: Does it have a localizing value?

Bilateral perioral sensory dysfunction due to unilateral cerebral lesion is rare, and has been thought to be caused by midline brainstem lesions. Six patients are described herewith, with bilateral perioral sensory symptoms due to unilateral strokes that do not involve the mid-brainstem region. Brain-computed tomographic scan and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated unilateral cerebral strokes in the thalamus, posterior limb of the internal capsule, basal ganglia, fronto-parietal cortex and the insular-frontal subcortical area. This observation suggests that bilateral perioral sensory symptoms do not have a localizing value. Possible pathogenetic mechanisms for this sign are discussed.
