2. How does practice improve the skills of medical students during consecutive training courses?
Abstract Purpose: To follow-up the development of medical students in taking a stitch using two different bench models, and to assess their performance with regards to gender, handedness, prior recreational activities and interest in surgery. Methods: The study was performed during the compulsory basic (n=152) and the consecutive elective course (n=27). St

3. Intermanual Transfer of Learning in a Fine Manual Skill Task
Abstract Intermanual Transfer of Learning (IMTL) is the ability to learn a certain skill in an easier way with one hand after that skill has been learnt by the opposite hand(1). This research aimed to investigate IMTL in a Fine Manual Dexterity (FMD) task in subjects presenting different Hand Preference (HP). The sample comprised 882 right and left-handers,

4. The Brief Kinesthesia test is feasible and sensitive: a study in stroke
BACKGROUND: Clinicians lack a quantitative measure of kinesthetic sense, an important contributor to sensorimotor control of the hand and arm. OBJECTIVES: The objective here was to determine the feasibility of administering the Brief Kinesthesia Test (BKT) and begin to validate it by 1) reporting BKT scores from persons with chronic stroke and a healthy

5. Interaction between affordance and handedness recognition: a chronometric study
The visualization of tools and manipulable objects activates motor-related areas in the cortex, facilitating possible actions toward them. This pattern of activity may underlie the phenomenon of object affordance. Some cortical motor neurons are also covertly activated during the recognition of body parts such as hands. One hypothesis is that different subpo

6. Dyslexia and hand preference in secondary school students
Research results with regard to handedness and dyslexia have been ambiguous. The present study investigated the relationship between handedness and dyslexia in secondary school students based on genetic (Right-Shift) and hormonal-developmental theories of handedness. A total of 135 students (45 dyslexics and 70 age- and sex-matched controls) participated in

7. Priming effect of figures that represent external objects or human body parts
A visual stimulus (e.g., a letter, word, or object) may have a lasting effect on the processing of subsequent stimuli. The present study verified the priming effect of a figure (i.e., five-petal daisy) on manual reaction time (MRT) to another equal or different five-petal daisy. Two distinct groups were tested. One group was instructed that the five-petal da

8. Relative growth in the fiddler crab Uca uruguayensis Nobili, 1901 (Brachyura, Ocypodidae) from Garças River mangrove, Guaratuba Bay, southern Brazil
A study on the relative growth was carried out in a population of the fiddler crab Uca uruguayensis from the mangrove of Garças River, Guaratuba Bay, Paraná State, southern Brazil. The dimensions analyzed were the length of the major chela (LMC) of males and width of the abdomen (AW) of females, because they are related to reproductive activities of waving

9. The correlation between lateralization of intracerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia and handedness
PURPOSE: To investigate the correlation between lateralization of cerebral basal ganglia hemorrhage and handedness. METHODS: Medical records and computed tomography (CT) scans for 84 patients with primary hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in basal ganglia were reviewed. Data of gender, age, handedness, and location of basal ganglia hematoma were st

10. Efeito da visibilidade dos braços sobre a preferência manual e controle motor na ação de alcançar em bebês / Effect of arms visibility on manual preference and motor control in infants reaching
This study aimed to evaluate the effect of visual occlusion of the preferred arm on its frequency of use and kinematics in spontaneous reaching of static objects in 5-month-old infants. Participated in this study 30 infants, with half of them submitted to visual occlusion of the preferred arm and the other half having full vision while reaching a toy. A poss

11. Correlação entre atrofia hipocampal e déficit de memória em pacientes com epilepsia de lobo temporal mesial / Correlation between hippocampal atrophy and memory deficits in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy
Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (MTLE) is the most common focal epilepsy in adults and is usually associated with hippocampal atrophy (HA) which is recognized by highresolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It consists of a syndrome that is often refractory to clinical treatment and patients may have memory deficits due to hippocampal system damage, howeve

12. CARACTERÍSTICAS AUDIOLÓGICAS DE INDIVÍDUOS NORMO-OUVINTES COM QUEIXAS DE ZUMBIDO E HIPERACUSIA / AUDIOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS IN NORMAL HEARING SUBJECTS WITH COMPLAINTS OF TINNITUS AND HYPERACUSIS
OBJETIVO: verificar a ocorrência e o efeito de supressão das emissões otoacústicas transientes (EOAT), a existência de associação entre: graus de zumbido e de hiperacusia, efeito supressor das EOAT e lateralidade, graus de zumbido e graus de hiperacusia, e analisar as características audiológicas de indivíduos normo-ouvintes com queixas de zumbido
