The mechanism of bitemporal hemianopia arising as a result of chiasmal compression is unknown.In this study,we combined an ex vivo experiment and finite element modelling(FEM)to investigate its potential mechanism.A c...
The French discourse model of human communication is largely an engagement of the problematic concept of enlightenment as a product of the ability to reason by thinking.The engagement as speaking and writing becomes t...
Optical coherence tomography(OCT)provides a non-invasive analysis of the retina in vivo.Lesions which compress the anterior visual pathway can cause anterograde and retrograde neuro-degeneration.Retrograde structural ...
This paper is an attempt to ascertain the role of the optical coherence tomography by measuring the retinal nerve fiber layer thickness and ganglion cell complex area to predict postoperative visual outcome after chia...
This paper seeks to examine a particular aspect of the communicological dynamic of play and boundaries. Working from an existential concept of play as creative, dialogic expression (and as the vehicle of new experien...
Gregory Bateson is famous for his description of the "double bind" that occurs when human (and animal) communication interaction becomes dysfunctional/-/is principal example is the "nip versus bite" opposition t...
Objective: By means of neuropsychologic tests, to further analyse a specific chiasmal monocular visual testing behaviour, here labelled temporal blocking because of the elective ignorance of optotypes on the temporal ...
Background: In a previous study, a specific visual behaviour was described in four chiasmal patients. It manifested as inattention/ignorance within the temporal visual space (“visual blocking”) at monocular visual a...
Objective: Describe the outcome of visual disorders after endonasal transsphenoidal (EET) surgery of pituitary macroadenomas with preoperative chiasmal compression. Patients and Methods: From 2009 to 2013, 225 patient...
Cognitive disturbances with neglect-like features have been reported occasionally in patients with chiasmal disorders, so far however with no obvious substrate by conventional brain imaging. Thus, there were no right ...
