The results demonstrate the marked differences in measured size that occur as the scale and subject distances vary.

But consider the importance of sound in the typical ‘talking head’ lecture, or the issue of how streaming audio helps or hinders those with visual or hearing disabilities. Developers and producers need to know how to maintain high fidelity, how to integrate media players with screen readers, and how streaming audio can help solve accessibility problems. Eventually, broadband accessibility and improvements in coding techniques should minimize the loss of quality when converting prerecorded media such as CDs and DVDs to the Internet. In the meantime, the Internet is still an excellent way to disseminate sound, so it is worthwhile to focus on creating the best possible representation of the original recording.","PeriodicalId":76645,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of audiovisual media in medicine","volume":"27 2","pages":"76-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/0140511042000224617","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"24588667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The common name ‘pinworm’ derives from the appearance of its tail, which is long, thin and pointed. Unlike most other nematodes, Enterobius organisms are more common in temperate countries than in the tropics. Enterobius Vermicularis infests more than 400 million people worldwide and is found predominately in temperate or colder climates. 1,2 Although serious clinical disease is extremely rare, pinworm infection carries with it much unwarranted social stigma. 3 Enterobiasis is a familial or institutional infection that has no preference for socio-economic status. This female worm was presented alive in water on a microscopic slide. The worm was visible to the naked eye and was laying eggs; female worms typically measure 8–13mm whereas male counterparts measure approximately 2–5mm. Gravid females emerge from the anus of the host at night, lay about 20,000 eggs on the perianal skin, and then die. The eggs, which embryonate within four hours of exposure to air, cause anal pruritus that leads to scratching and to the deposition of eggs under the fingernails of the already parasitized host. 3 The lifespan of","PeriodicalId":76645,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of audiovisual media in medicine","volume":"27 1","pages":"35-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/01405110310001659175","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"24572177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This has proved a difficult task, and, if I am honest, I do not have a definitive response to the latter: the only way it is possible to give any thoughts on the matter is to base it on my own personal background of forty-six years in the profession. Also, because there have been several good papers in this Journal recently about the changing role of medical illustration, I am simply looking at our profession from a different viewpoint. The areas relevant to our discussions are medical illustration, medicine and technology. The combination of these is having, and will continue to have, a profound effect on our future. So the equation is somewhat complicated, and it could be argued that aspects of our future are out of our control, which is slightly worrying, as I will return to later.","PeriodicalId":76645,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of audiovisual media in medicine","volume":"27 1","pages":"20-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/01405110410001661775","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"24572175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"The Value of the Arts to Medicine and Well BeingI forgot the needle because I was staring at the bunny on the wall. 8‐year‐old patient, Mt. Sinai.","authors":"","doi":"10.1080/01405110310001659643","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/01405110310001659643","url":null,"abstract":"The importance of incorporating art into medicine was recognized by early physicians such as Hippocrates and Galen. They understood the benefits of uplifting their patients’ spirits by exposing them to visually-stimulating environments such as an outdoor marketplace, where contact with the sights and sounds of daily life enhanced the healing process. More recently, research has demonstrated that patients who can view nature through their windows have shorter post-operative hospital stays, make negative comments less often, need fewer doses of narcotics, and have fewer post-surgical complications. During the past twelve years there has been a dramatic growth in the use of the arts in medicine. This growth has taken place in hospitals, hospices, medical schools, healing centres, and it is now emerging on the Internet. One of the leaders in this movement is a website created for the ColoradoCouncil on the Arts,Arts as a Force of Healing, Building, & Empowerment (www.artslynx.org/heal/), with funding from the United States National Endowment for the Arts as a gift to the world community. Over 600 keyword/search engine searches were conducted, in addition to examining the listings available at the most comprehensive meta-sites already developed. From these searches, over 1200 sites were studied. Sites were chosen based on the organization and amount of resources available, inclusion of online galleries, and inclusion of a library of links to other sites, among other factors. The result is a very user-friendly interface of hundreds of independent artists and associations working toward advancing the use of art in medicine. Sites are organized alphabetically and by subject, and discussion forums are available on a variety of healing arts topics. A similar gateway site is the Society for the Arts in Healthcare (www.societyartshealthcare.org/), which encourages the use of arts in healing and provides links to specific artistic programs such as ‘The Difference Music Makes’ (www.starmightfoundation.org/differencemusicmakes.html). This is a musical community service project created to support the musical needs of young hospital patients receiving treatments for life-threatening childhood diseases. The Arts and Healing Network (www.artheals.org/) is yet another comprehensive and content-rich website which includes many examples of successful projects throughout the world. Traditional medical education is also beginning to explore the value of creativity and art. The Right Brain – A Creative Outlet for the Health Professions (www. therightbrain.co.uk/) is a site which showcases creative works gathered from members of the healthcare professions. There are galleries of images, poetry, short stories and music. The authors, a pair of junior doctors from the University of Birmingham, believe that students can learn to ‘see the whole picture’ of a diagnosis, by developing right brain skills. Professional associations have also been formed to promote art in healing.
