Abstract
Background Most research on early outcomes in infants with a family history (FH) of autism has focussed on categorically defined autism, although some have language and developmental delays. Less is known about outcomes in infants with a FH of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Methods Infants with and without a FH of autism and/or ADHD, due to a first-degree relative with either or both conditions, were recruited at 5 or 10 months. Three year outcomes were characterised using latent profile analysis (LPA) across measures of cognitive ability, adaptive functioning and autism, ADHD and anxiety traits (n = 131). We additionally ran an LPA using only autism and ADHD measures, and the broader LPA in an independent cohort (n = 139) and in both cohorts combined (n = 270). Results A Low Developmental Level + High Behavioural Concerns class had elevated autism, ADHD and anxiety scores, low cognitive and adaptive function, and included all but one child with autism. A Low Developmental Level + Typical Behaviour class had average cognitive ability and typical behaviour but low adaptive function. A Typical Developmental Level + Some Behavioural Concerns class had average cognitive and adaptive function but slightly elevated behaviour scores. A High Developmental Level + Typical Behaviour class had above average cognitive ability and typical behaviour. All four LPAs identified classes characterised by combinations of either, or both, Low Development Level and elevated behaviour scores, as well as a typically developing class. No classes had elevated autism or ADHD traits in isolation. Conclusions Some infants with a FH of autism or ADHD have atypical developmental and behavioural outcomes, but do not show strong autism or ADHD traits in isolation. The field needs to recalibrate aims and methods to embrace the broader transdiagnostic pattern of outcomes seen in these infants.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This paper reports the first-ever description of a clinical eating disorder population from Turkey. The aim of this study was to examine the socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of individuals with diagnosis of eating disorders (IDED) referred to a university psychiatry clinic in Istanbul between 2003 and 2009. METHOD The diagnoses and subtype of 111 IDEDs, the referral type to the hospital, setting of treatment, and state of involuntary hospitalization were evaluated by interview and semi-structured questionnaire. RESULTS The clinical sample included 64 individuals with anorexia nervosa (AN), 38 with bulimia nervosa (BN), and 9 with eating disorder not otherwise specified (EDNOS), including only one male. Younger individuals and those with a lower BMI were significantly more likely to be family referred and hospitalized involuntarily. DISCUSSION The overall socio-demographic features of the sample are generally consistent with data collected in other communities. However, aspects of the clinical features, referral types of eating disorders and subtypes exhibit some characteristics peculiar to our sample.

Abstract
Toothpastes are definitely one of the indispensable elements of oral health care. They are produced to serve multiple purposes and possess complex chemical structures. Slight abrasion, froth, sweetening, bleaching, prevention of plaque, calculus and decay are properties expected from an ideal toothpaste. In recent years, allergic reactions have started to appear more frequently in dental practice. The present case describes the progression of an allergic response to toothpastes, one of the basic agents of oral hygiene.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The pterion, the most commonly used neurosurgical landmark, is defined as the junction of frontal, parietal, and greater wing of the sphenoid and the squamous part of temporal bones. Our aim was to identify the variations of the pterion which may be a potential surgical pitfall. METHODS Both sides of 300 adult skulls were examined but 110 sides were eliminated since their pterion could not be identified owing to a damage. The shortest distance between the lateral orbital rim and the most anterior junction of the four bones forming the pterion was measured on all sides. RESULTS Out of 490 sides the pterion was found to contain epipteric bones in 44 (9 %), and in these skulls the most anterior junction of the bones may be as close as 16 mm to the lateral orbital rim. CONCLUSION In skulls with an epipteric bone variation, particularly the anterius and proprium types; the pterion can mistakenly be assessed to be at the most anterior junction of bones and a burr hole placed over there may cause inadvertent penetration into the orbit.

Abstract
This study investigated the polymerization shrinkage of restorative materials and microleakage in the proximal box of Class II restorations. Twenty caries free extracted human molars were prepared on the mesial and distal, making 40 slot cavities. Groups (n=10) were classified as: Group 1: Single bond/Filtek Z-250; Group 2: Single Bond/Filtek Flow/Filtek Z-250; Group 3: Admira Bond/Admira; Group 4: Ariston Liner/Ariston. Dentin bonding systems and resin composites were applied according to the manufacturer's instructions. The specimens were stored in distilled water for one week at 37 degrees C, thermocycled (5 degrees-55 degrees C x 2000), stained with 50% aqueous silver nitrate, immersed in a diluted developer solution (24 hours), rinsed and sectioned in two pieces with a low speed saw (Isomet). Dye penetration (Score 0-4) was determined separately at the occlusal enamel margin and cementoenamel junction. The volumetric polymerization shrinkage of materials was determined with the apparatus of Watts and Cash (Watts Cash, 1991) for 300 seconds. Polymerization shrinkage results were as follows: Filtek Flow (3.5% +/- 0.1) > Admira (2.1% +/- 0.1) = Ariston AT (2.3% +/- 0.1) > Filtek Z-250 (1.8% +/- 0.1) (One-way Anova, post hoc Bonferroni test at p = 0.05 level). No statistical difference was found at the enamel margins for any of the materials (Score 0-1). At the cemento-enamel junction, all test groups showed significantly higher microleakage when compared to the enamel margins (Kruskal-Wallis test, Mann-Whitney U). Dye penetration results at dentin were as follows: Filtek Flow + Filtek Z-250 = Admira < Ariston AT = Filtek Z-250. microleakage than the ion-releasing and hybrid composites lined only with bonding agent at the cementoenamel junction in Class II cavities.

Abstract
During dissection of the right forearm of a 27-year-old female cadaver, variations in the form and insertion of the palmaris longus muscle were observed. The tendon of the palmaris longus muscle, which demonstrated a centrally placed belly, split into two tendons: one inserted into the palmar aponeurosis and the other into the proximal part of the flexor retinaculum. Additionally, we found an accessory muscle extending between the flexor retinaculum and the tendon of the abductor digiti minimi muscle. This accessory muscle was located deep to the ulnar artery but superficial to the superficial and deep branches of the ulnar nerve at the wrist. Finally, an aberrant branch of the ulnar nerve was identified in the forearm; it traveled distally alongside the ulnar artery and in the palm demonstrated communications with common palmar digital nerves from the ulnar and the median nerves. No variations were observed in the contralateral upper limb.

Abstract
The anatomy of the internal anal sphincter and surrounding structures was investigated in 24 cadavers using a surgical microscope (6-25 x magnification). An understanding of the anatomy of the internal anal sphincter is helpful in avoiding complications during surgical procedures in the anorectal region. The external anal sphincter was composed of three ellipsoid rings of skeletal muscle (subcutaneous, superficial, and deep) that encircle the anal canal; in contrast, we found that the internal anal sphincter was composed of flat rings of smooth muscle bundles stacked one on top of the other, like the slats of a Venetian blind. In each anal canal, the average number of ring-like slats observed was 26.33 +/- 2.93 (range = 20-30) and each was covered by its own fascia. The smooth muscle fibers and fascia coalesced at three equidistant points around the anal canal to form three columns that extended distally into the lumen and differed in form from the other anal columns. When viewed from an anterior position, the columns were located anteriorly at the observer's right (5 o'clock position), posteriorly at the right (1 o'clock position), and laterally at the left (9 o'clock position). This heretofore unreported anatomy of the internal anal sphincter may play an important role in closing off the lumen of the anal canal and maintaining bowel continence.

Abstract
The microsurgical anatomy of the jugular foramen was studied in 12 formalin preserved cadavers (24 foramina) and 40 dry-skulls (80 foramina). The jugular foramen was exposed by microsurgical dissection with drilling from a superior to inferior direction. Observations regarding dural architecture of the jugular foramen and relationships between neurovascular structures passing through the foramen were noted in cadavers. Normal bony construction of the foramen and its variational anatomy were examined in dry-skull specimens. Using photographs and drawings, the anatomy of the jugular foramen is presented and related terminology is discussed in the light of a literature review.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine and to standardize the certain anatomical relations, and the precise size, course, and location of the infraorbital foramen, canal, and groove for facilitating surgical and invasive procedures. STUDY DESIGN This anatomical study consisted of two main steps, namely, the examination of skulls and the cephalometric analysis of the skulls. Measurements of the skulls and of the radiograms were performed. METHODS Thirty-five adult bony heads (70 sides) were studied regarding the localization and dimensions of the infraorbital groove (IOG), infraorbital canal (IOC), and infraorbital foramen (IOF) as well as their relationships with different anatomical landmarks. The cephalometric analysis of the skulls was measured for evaluating the relationships of certain anatomical points and the distances of the skulls in the cephalometric analysis. For this purpose, 13 different distances and two angles were measured on anteroposterior and lateral craniographies. Differences between data of skull and cephalogram measurements were analyzed by the Student t test. The Pearson correlation test was used in the statistical analysis of the 15 values in the cephalogram. RESULTS Examination of the 70 sides of the 35 bony heads revealed that the shape of the IOF was oval in 34.3%, round in 38.6%, and semilunar in 27.1% of all skulls. The IOF was single in 94.3% and double in 5.7% of the cases. The average distance from the IOF to the infraorbital margin and to the lateral process of the canine tooth in vertical direction and to the lateral nasal border in horizontal direction were 7.19 +/- 1.39 mm, 33.94 +/- 3.15, and 17.23 +/- 2.64 mm, respectively. In cephalometric analysis, when S-N (the distance between the center of the sella turcica and the nasion) and N-ANS (the distance between the nasion and the anterior nasal spine) distances were used as independent parameters for the linear analysis, the correlation of the three values for both independent parameters were statistically significant. CONCLUSION While the IOF has no statistically significant changes with regard to the size of the skull, expressive changes take place in the course and the length of the IOG and IOC. Meticulous preoperative evaluation of the IOF and the route of the infraorbital nerve are necessary in patients who are candidates for maxillofacial surgery and regional block anesthesia. If these measurements are taken into account, there will be little surgical risk, and this will be helpful in identifying the extent of the operative field.

Abstract
AIM A comparative radiologico-anatomical study of the cochlear aqueduct (CA) was performed. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eight cadavers and 23 dry temporal bones were studied. High-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) was carried out on each cadaver before microdissection. Microdissection was carried out in a plane parallel to the HRCT sections. RESULTS The CA was found to be located an average of 7 mm inferior to the internal acoustic meatus and at the superior edge of the jugular foramen. The external aperture of the CA was triangular in shape in 18 bones (78.3%). The petrosal fossa was located just inferior to the external aperture and housed the glossopharyngeal nerve, which had an incomplete bony canal in four bones (17.4%) and a complete bony canal in three bones (13%). It was possible to demonstrate the petrosal portion of the CA on both coronal and axial HRCT. The otic capsule segment of the CA was impossible to demonstrate on coronal sections. CONCLUSION The CA cannot be visualized in only one section of the plane in HRCT. Both the otic capsule and petrosal segments can be demonstrated on axial HRCT.

Abstract
This study aims to determine the microscopic anatomy of the layers of the lateral wall of the cavernous sinus (CS) and, in particular, intends to examine the location and relations of the dural openings on the deep layer. Forty sides of 20 formalin-fixed and fresh cadavers were dissected and their CS examined. In 12 cases we found an opening on the deep dural layer; however, in four of them the inferolateral trunk of the internal carotid artery (ICA) was identified through these dural openings. We noticed the trochlear nerve making a curve (5% of cases) or lying close to the ophthalmic nerve (12.5%) on the lateral wall. In one case, the triangular area described by Parkinson could not be exposed surgically. Our findings indicate the importance of the heterogeneous courses of the cranial nerves lying on the lateral wall and point to the significance of the dural openings, which can influence the etiology of neoplastic invasions originating from the CS.

Abstract
With the increasing frequency of surgical operations to the cavernous sinus greater knowledge of the microanatomy of the cavernous sinus has become necessary. The most frequently seen complications during cavernous sinus surgery involve impairment of cranial nerves. This can occur due to direct damage or ischemia. For these reasons, it is important to know the arterial supplies to the cranial nerves in the cavernous sinus and the anatomy of these branches as well. 15 formaline fixed adult cadavers were used in this study. Before the dissections, the internal carotid artery and vertebral artery were filled with coloured latex on both sides. In this report, the intracavernous branches of internal carotid artery (I.I.C.A.) were identified based on the principles of Nomina Anatomica (1989) and compared with others. In our study we found that the segment of the abducens nerve which lies in Dorello's channel was supplied by the meningeal branch; from the point at which it pierces the cerebellar tentorium, the trochlear nerve is supplied by the tentorial cerebellar artery; the posterior cerebellar artery supplies the proximal segment of the oculomotor nerve that proceeds to the oculomotor triangle. Except for these, all the cranial nerves that were located on the lateral wall of the sinus cavernosus are supplied by the tentorial marginal branch and the branches of the lateral trunk.

Abstract
The data for this report were derived from 61 newborns and their mothers. Of the newborns 45.9 percent had one-minute Apgar scores of less than seven, and 54.1 percent had Apgar scores of seven or greater. The five-minute Apgar score was less than 7 in 6.6 percent of cases. While 23 percent of newborns had pH values of less than 7.20, 77 percent had pH of 7.20 or greater. Only 39.3 percent of the 28 newborns with one-minute Apgar score of less than 7 and 75 percent of the four newborns with five minute Apgar scores of less than 7 had pH values less than 7.20. Of 33 newborns, 9.1 percent who had Apgar scores of seven or more had pH of less than 7.20. We determined the sensitivity of the one minute Apgar score in acidemia to be 78 percent, the specificity to be 63 percent, the positive predictive value as 39 percent, and the negative predictive value as 90 percent. The one minute score is very poor for detecting acidosis when present but is rarely misleading when acidosis is absent. There was a positive correlation between the Apgar score and pH (p < 0.001). The best correlation with umbilical artery pH values was observed with base excess (-BE) values (p < 0.001). Severe acidosis (pH < 7.11) was detected in eight cases. As delta pH increases, pH, pO2 and HCO3 decrease and pCO2 increases. Of 11 infants with delta pH > or = 0.20, 63.6 percent were sick infants and only one (9%) had normal Apgar scores.

Abstract
Endoscopic surgical treatment of paranasal sinus infections is currently being applied in many Otorhinolaryngology Clinics. Although high rates of success are reported with this treatment method, life threatening complications sometimes do occur due to disorientation, especially when angled telescopes are used. In order to avoid such complications, we evaluated the distances from the anterior nasal spine to various important anatomic structures encountered during endoscopic surgery. The measurements obtained by a morphometric anatomic study of cadavers are presented in this study. We believe that if surgery is carried beyond the measured distances, serious complications may ensue during endoscopic surgery.
