  • Sexing of Human Hip Bones of Indian Origin by Discriminant Function Analysis

    Sexing of Human Hip Bones of Indian Origin by Discriminant Function Analysis

Dixit MD (Principal Investigator) *, S. Kakar MS (Guide), S. Agarwal MS (Co-Guide), R. Choudhry MS (Co-Guide) Department of Anatomy, Lady Hardinge Medical College & S.S.K. Hospital, New Delhi, India Received 5 September 2006; received in revised form 6 March 2007; accepted 23 March 2007 Available online 20 July 2007 Abstract The present study was carried out in terms of discriminant analysis and was conducted on 100 human hip bones (of unknown sex) of Indian origin. Based on morphological features, each of the hip bone was rated on a scale of 1–3 for sexing. Twelve measurements and five indices were recorded. The results of discriminant function analysis showed that the acetabular height (vertical diameter) and indices 1 (total pelvic height/acetabular height), 2 (midpubic width/acetabular height) and 3 (pubic length/acetabular height) were very good measures for discriminating sexes. Pelvic brim depth, minimum width of ischiopubic ramus and indices 4 (pelvic brim chord · pelvic brim depth) and 5 (pubic length · 100/ischial length) were also good discriminators of sex. The remaining parameters were not significant as they showed a lot of overlap between male and female categories. The results indicated that one exclusive criterion for sexing was index 3 (pubic length/acetabular height). In comparison with the morphological criteria, the abovementioned index caused 25% and 10.25% increase in the hip bones of female and male category, respectively.

  • Binocular Vision

    Binocular Vision

    BINOCULAR VISION Rahul Bhola, MD Pediatric Ophthalmology Fellow The University of Iowa Department of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences posted Jan. 18, 2006, updated Jan. 23, 2006 Binocular vision is one of the hallmarks of the human race that has bestowed on it the supremacy in the hierarchy of the animal kingdom. It is an asset with normal alignment of the two eyes, but becomes a liability when the alignment is lost. Binocular Single Vision may be defined as the state of simultaneous vision, which is achieved by the coordinated use of both eyes, so that separate and slightly dissimilar images arising in each eye are appreciated as a single image by the process of fusion. Thus binocular vision implies fusion, the blending of sight from the two eyes to form a single percept. Binocular Single Vision can be: 1. Normal – Binocular Single vision can be classified as normal when it is bifoveal and there is no manifest deviation. 2. Anomalous - Binocular Single vision is anomalous when the images of the fixated object are projected from the fovea of one eye and an extrafoveal area of the other eye i.e. when the visual direction of the retinal elements has changed. A small manifest strabismus is therefore always present in anomalous Binocular Single vision. Normal Binocular Single vision requires: 1. Clear Visual Axis leading to a reasonably clear vision in both eyes 2. The ability of the retino-cortical elements to function in association with each other to promote the fusion of two slightly dissimilar images i.e. Sensory fusion. 3. The precise co-ordination of the two eyes for all direction of gazes, so that corresponding retino-cortical element are placed in a position to deal with two images i.e.

ENOCH Department ofOphthalmology, University of Florida CoUege of Medicine, GainesviUe, Florida 32610 Young observers were challenged to induce a marked monocular accommodative response to a relatively weak accommodative stimulus by placing a-9 diopter contact lens on the eye. At first, observers could not produce the desired response, but with training, three of four subjects achieved criterion. Both a voluntary accommodative response and a response to an adequate accommodative stimulus were apparently involved. The voluntary component of the response could be demonstrated by having the observers repeat the task in total darkness. Accommodation is a change in the curvature and a monocularly presented stimulus pattern which consisted of two thickness ofthe crystalline lens which is made in order. horizontal rectangles of light (each measuring 2"12' x 1°SO' and to bring light from near objects into focus on the separated by 44' measured at the entrance pupil of the eye).

    The Role of Focus Cues in Stereopsis, and the Development of a Novel Volumetric Display

    The role of focus cues in stereopsis, and the development of a novel volumetric display by David Morris Hoffman A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Vision Science in the GRADUATE DIVISION of the UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY Committee in charge: Professor Martin S. Banks, Chair Professor Austin Roorda Professor John Canny Spring 2010 1 Abstract The role of focus cues in stereopsis, and the development of a novel volumetric display by David Morris Hoffman Doctor of Philosophy in Vision Science University of California, Berkeley Professor Martin S. Banks, Chair Typical stereoscopic displays produce a vivid impression of depth by presenting each eye with its own image on a flat display screen. This technique produces many depth signals (including disparity) that are consistent with a 3-dimensional (3d) scene; however, by using a flat display panel, focus information will be incorrect. The accommodation distance to the simulated objects will be at the screen distance, and blur will be inconsistent with the simulated depth. In this thesis I will described several studies investigating the importance of focus cues for binocular vision. These studies reveal that there are a number of benefits to presenting correct focus information in a stereoscopic display, such as making it easier to fuse a binocular image, reducing visual fatigue, mitigating disparity scaling errors, and helping to resolve the binocular correspondence problem. For each of these problems, I discuss the theory for how focus cues could be an important factor, and then present psychophysical data showing that indeed focus cues do make a difference.

    Forward and Inward Movement of the Ciliary Muscle Apex with Accommodation in Adults

    Forward and Inward Movement of the Ciliary Muscle Apex with Accommodation in Adults THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Trang Pham Prosak Graduate Program in Vision Science The Ohio State University 2014 Master's Examination Committee: Melissa D. Bailey, OD, PhD, Advisor Donald O. Mutti, OD, PhD Marjean Kulp, OD, PhD Copyright by Trang Pham Prosak 2014 Abstract Purpose: to study the inward and forward movement of the ciliary muscle during accommodation and to investigate the effects of one hour of reading on the ciliary muscle behavior in young adults. Methods: Subjects included 23 young adults with a mean age of 23.7 ± 1.9 years. Images of the temporal ciliary muscle of the right eye were obtained using the Visante™ Anterior Segment Ocular Coherence Tomography while accommodative response was monitored simultaneously by the Power-Refractor. Four images were taken at each accommodative response level (0, 4.0 and 6.0 D) before and after one hour of reading. Ciliary muscle thickness was measured at every 0.25 mm posterior to the scleral spur. SSMAX, which is the distance between scleral spur and the thickest point of the muscle (CMTMAX), was also measured. The change in the ciliary muscle thickness and SSMAX with accommodation from 0 to 4.0 D and 0 to 6.0 D was calculated. Paired t-tests were used to determine if the ciliary muscle thickness and SSMAX for the 4.0 and 6.0 diopters of accommodative response were different after one hour of reading.
