Stephen G. Reich and Robert L. Ruff, Cleveland, OH retour vers les peintres What Pieter Brueghel the Elder had in mind in the mid-16th century, when he painted the face of a man showing the eyes tightly closed and the mouth widely open, may never be known. Historians of art contend that this painting depicts a huge yawn and have titled this work Yawning Man or De Gaper . Neurologists have offered alternative ideas; Marsden credited R.E. Kelly for noting the similarity of this painting to the syndrome of blepharospasm-oromandibular dystonia and suggested the eponym Brueghel's syndrome " (Marsden CD, J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry 1976;39:1204-9). Although Brueghel's works of art reveal that he had a fascination with human physiognomy, both normal and pathologic, Marsden's claim that Brueghel "clearly recognized the syndrome" may be an overinterpretation of this unsigned, undated, and untitled painting.

Extractions: Funded by the NIH - Developed at the University of Washington, Seattle Thanks to Deborah de Leon and Dr. Susan B. Bressman, for contributing this article to be featured on this website. SUMMARY Disease Characteristics: Early-onset primary dystonia (DYTI) typically presents before age 21 years with involuntary sustained muscle contractions that cause posturing of a foot, leg, or arm. The contractions frequently, but not invariably, generalize to other body regions. No other neurological abnormalities a re present, except for postural arm tremor. Disease severity varies considerably within the same family, and isolated writer's cramp may be the only sign. Diagnosis/Testing: DYT1 is, the most common cause of early-onset primary dystonia and is, diagnosed by a DNA-based test showing a 3 base pair GAG deletion in the torsin A gene (chromosomal locus 9q34). Genetic Counseling: DYT1 is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Offspring of an affected individual or an asymptomatic gene carrier have a 50% chance of inheriting the disease-causing mutation, but only a 30-40% chance of developing clinical findings. Prenatal testing is available.

Extractions: NSF Report - Facial Expression Understanding Title/Contents Exec Summary Overview Computer Vision ... Recommendations Benefits References VI. BENEFITS Beatrice Golomb and Terrence J. Sejnowski The potential benefits from efforts to understand the face using the technologies discussed in this report are varied and numerous. The preceeding sections have separately enumerated many benefits. This section summarizes these benefits and indicates additional areas where benefits could accrue that were not emphasized previously. Commercial Applications Finally, the specialized market for scientific instrumentation should not be overlooked. Packaged tools that analyze or synthesize facial information could be a profitable enterprise for researchers in fields that are discussed below. Computer Sciences The problem of understanding the face will enhance the computer sciences and technologies brought to bear on these issues. As the report from the Sensing and Processing Workgroup points out (page 43), the face has some ideal qualities for development of computer vision systems. The application of neural networks and innovative approaches to digital image processing is sure to be applied to other problems, such as analysis of planetary photos and particle decay images. The Modeling and Database Workgroup emphasized the need for a database of the face. There are parallels between the need to collect and maintain image databases for the analysis of facial expressions and the need to develop a database of utterances for speech recognition. The TIMIT database, a joint effort of Texas Instruments and MIT, provided the speech community with a research standard for speech records and a means for objectively comparing speech recognition systems. The proposed database of facial expressions could provide similar benefits for the vision community. As the Database Workgroup indicates, there are many challenges that the creation of such a huge multimedia database would bring to the investigators developing scientific databases.
LE SYNDROME DE MEIGE syndrome de brueghel du nom du peintre flamand qui est semble-t-il le premier à avoir décrit l affection, sur un tableau. Etiologie. http://maladiesrares.free.fr/syndrome_meige.htm
Extractions: Aidyston@wanadoo.fr LE SYNDROME DE MEIGE Pr. J.P. ADENIS Le syndrome de MEIGE est caractérisé par la présence de spasmes au niveau du muscle orbiculaire (blépharospasme) et au niveau de la partie basse de la face et des muscles du cou et de la mandibule. Il s'appelle aussi syndrome de BRUEGHEL du nom du peintre flamand qui est semble-t-il le premier à avoir décrit l'affection, sur un tableau. Etiologie 1) Dans la majorité des cas, l'étiologie de ce syndrome reste inconnue. Il s'agit là du syndrome de MEIGE primaire. 2) Il peut être secondaire à des affections intra-crâniennes d'étiologie connue. 3) Une prédisposition génétique existe dans certains cas de maladies familiales. 4) Certaines maladies immunologiques telle que la polyarthrite rhumatoïde, la myasthénie grave ou le syndrome de de Sjögren, ainsi que certaines anomalies thyroïdiennes peuvent prédisposer à la survenue de ce syndrome. Historique Le neurologiste français Henri MEIGE a décrit ce syndrome en détail en 1910, dans sa forme idiopathique sous le nom de spasme facial médian.
The Sense Of Hearing By BRUEGHEL, Jan The Elder In Jan brueghel s paintings, the part of purely passive reception or physical consumption goods and an emotional state of ecstasy are recognized as a syndrome. http://gallery.euroweb.hu/html/b/bruegel/jan_e/2/5sense1.html
Extractions: This piece, a characteristic product of the Rubens workshop, is one of the paintings in the series depicting the five senses. The allegorical content of these works was always obvious, and the pieces of the series did not become separated. The still-life details enumerating many traditional symbols were painted by Jan Brueghel. The amazing increase in the commercial and agricultural product range caused a complete restructuring of people's perception - a change which can be seen very clearly in the numerous paintings and series of paintings on the subject of the Five Senses. Jan Brueghel the Elder's famous variations on this motif - now in the Prado, Madrid - show a number of settings, each of which is associated with the five senses. The dramatic 'unity of character' has been divided into components of the senses, thus reflecting an increasing compartmentalization of the world into functional spheres - a world which is defined in terms of luxury goods. In Jan Brueghel's paintings, the part of purely passive reception or physical consumption is played by an allegorical female figure. Interestingly, by depicting her naked or semi-naked breasts and sometimes her entire body, the painter emphasizes an element of eroticism. In this way the consumption of luxury goods and an emotional state of ecstasy are recognized as a syndrome.

DSL Synopsis: An undercover policewoman, Anna Manni, visits Florence's Uffizi Gallery and becomes disoriented by the disturbing beauty of the masterpieces on display. Soon thereafter, transfixed before Brueghel's "The Flight of Icarus," she faints and plunges into the painting's ocean. A handsome stranger helps her to her feet... But, in reality, this seemingly kind stranger is a serial rapist and murderer, the very one which she has been sent to apprehend. Once she recovers from her extreme amnesiatic reaction to the artworkidentified by a psychiatrist as "Stendhal Syndrome"she discovers, all too late, that she has made herself vulnerable to the enemy.

Extractions: Action for Dystonia, A .D.D.E.R Patron: Sir Tom Cowie Supported by: Denise Robertson Dr Miriam Stoppard Charity Registration No: 1077578 Definitions of Dystonia Introduction This paper has been published by A.D.D.E.R. to assist people who want to know what Dystonia is. It describes how the disease can affect people and how treatment may be provided. The information is based on the Epidemiological Survey of Dystonia (ESD), which arose from research carried out in North East England between 1993 and 1999. The database continues to be maintained and currently, there are over 1,600 people registered in the ESD. Definition Dystonia has been defined as a, previously little known, neurological disease of the bodys central nervous system and consists of a group of related movement disorders, characterised by involuntary and often painful, prolonged spasms of muscle contractions. It has also been classically defined as "a syndrome of sustained muscle contractions, frequently causing twisting and repetitive movements, or abnormal postures." It can affect a single part of the body, or the whole body, or any mid-way position between these two extremes. Despite this neurological disorder being named by Oppenheim in 1911, relatively little research had been undertaken until recently. The ESD was the first comprehensive and lengthy study of the disease, undertaken within a specified population, anywhere in the world.

The two most common classifications are: Primary or idiopathic (no known organic lesion) vs secondary (generally arises from some insult to the basal ganglia of the central nervous system such as: trauma, toxins, drugs, neoplasm, infarction, other organic causes) Classification based on the body region involved (see following) Onset age: typically children (especially in early teen years) Symptoms: abnormal foot inversion, awkward gait, contractions of many different muscle groups; may involve one or more limbs of the proximal or distal muscle groups
