Current descriptions of the unilateral cleft lip and nasal deformity (uCLND) are based upon limited sample sets and subjective observations. While those descriptions are inconsistent and contradictory, theoretical models, including Hogan's "tilted tripod" and Fisher's "nasal arch forms", have never been tested. Given that favorable outcomes of trea...

Symmetry in the arrangement of body parts is a distinctive phylogenetic feature of animals. Cnidarians show both bilateral and radial symmetries in their internal organs, such as gastric pouches and muscles. However, how different symmetries appear during the developmental process remains unknown. Here, we report intraspecific variations in the sym...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to quantify the symmetry of the facial hard tissue structures using three-dimensional radiographic imaging modalities in a normal Caucasian population group. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Electronic literature search was conducted in the following databases: PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library up to Fe...

A probability distribution is regular if it does not assign probability zero to any possible event. Williamson (Analysis, 67, 173–180, 2007) argued that we should not require probabilities to be regular, for if we do, certain “isomorphic” physical events (infinite sequences of coin flip outcomes) must have different probabilities, which is implausi...

We investigate the sensitivity of symmetry quantification algorithms based on the profile R-factor (Rp) and the normalized cross-correlation (NCC) coefficient (γ). A DM (Digital Micrograph©) script embedded in the Gatan digital microscopy software is used to develop the symmetry quantification program. Using the Bloch method, a variety of CBED patt...

Radiology Case Reports
Few cases of pericallosal lipoma with several other lesions, including specific forms of calcification and brain malformations, have been reported. We present the case of an asymptomatic 83-year-old man with a pericallosallipoma with peculiar symmetrical morphology in the midline of the skull. We posit that the lesions began forming in the very ear...

The application of the anatomical parameters of the contralateral hip joint to guide the preoperative template of the affected side relies on the bilateral hip symmetry. We investigated the bilateral hip symmetry and range of anatomical variations by measurement and comparison of bilateral hip anatomical parameters. This study included 224 patients...

There has been an upsurge of interest lately in developing Wigner’s hypothesis that conscious observation causes collapse by exploring dynamical collapse models in which some purportedly quantifiable aspect(s) of consciousness resist superposition. Kremnizer–Ranchin, Chalmers–McQueen and Okon–Sebastián have explored the idea that collapse may be as...

The notion of time reversal has caused some recent controversy in philosophy of physics. The debate has mainly put the focus on how the concept of time reversal should be formally implemented across different physical theories and models, as if time reversal were a single, unified concept that physical theories should capture. In this paper, I shif...

Un projet de correction d’une asymétrie doit-il être fondé seulement sur la référence à une normalité ? L’asymétrie faciale est globalement la règle, tant sur le plan anatomique que fonctionnel. Les caractéristiques des asymétries doivent être abordées et traitées avec discernement. Lorsqu’il s’agit de pratiquer des interventions esthétiques, il es...
