Purpose: To detect the functional deficit of the visual cortex in anisometropic amblyopia children using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technique, and investigate the relationship between visual acuity and visual cortex function.Methods: Blood oxygenation level-dependent fMRI (BOLD-fMRI) was performed in ten monocular anisometropic am
Recently, IL/cosolvent systems have generated a lot of interest as cellulose-dissolving solvents and reaction media for various kinds of cellulose modification.In the present study, both 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (AmimCl)/dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and AmimCl/N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) systems were employed to synthesize cellulose acetat
This study aimed to Compression Sock establish baseline data for performance concerning the business planning function of agricultural small-, micro- and medium-sized enterprises (Agri-SMMEs) in the Eastern Cape Province, South Africa.It also endeavoured to investigate the extent to which Agri-SMMEs that had adopted total quality management (TQM) h
Pneumatic reduction Tray has a higher success rate and lower incidence of complications compared to barium enema and hydrostatic reductions.What is deterrent to its common use is the cumbersome technique.Our aim is to develop a simple technique that can be used in any hospital with locally available facilities.Methods: An intercostal drainage bottl
Despite well-established knowledge of the role of diet and the geographic effect on the gut microbiota of human populations, the temporal dynamics of the individual microbiota profile across changes associated with intercontinental short residence are still far from being understood.This pilot study Balboa L/S Shirt sought to provide insights into
