Aesthetic dimensions and picture memory: a structural re-analysis.

Abstract

The data of Franken and Davis (1975) on the prediction of memory for pictures from aesthetic ratings were re-analyzed, employing smallest space analysis to explore the structural aspects of memory and the aesthetic dimensions. The major results of this re-analysis identified one relatively pervasive dimension, distinctiveness, which encompassed most of the memorial and aesthetic variables.

[Forum: dermopigmentation or medical tattooing. History of tattooing].

Tattooing has been performed all over the world since prehistoric times, as indicated by numerous ancient relics. The significance of tattoos has differed at times and in different civilisations (means of communication, social identification mark, religious origin). Today, it is performed by real artists who have inspired its medical applications. Medical dermopigmentation was initially used in the context of breast reconstruction (nipple areola complex) and, with subsequent refinements, its indications have been extended to the treatment of residual scars and to the permanent make-up.

[Forum: dermopigmentation or medical tattooing. Dermopigmentation and reconstruction of the nipple-areola].

The use of pigmented grafts for nipple-areola reconstruction of amputed breasts is disappointing because of frequent depigmentation. Dermopigmentation is an easy, quick and effective means to ensure restoration of the nipple-areolar complex. This technique is presented as a two-step reconstruction under local anesthesia, on an outpatient basis. The final nipple may be obtained, at the second stage, by silicone prosthesis implantation under the previously pigmented mammary skin.

[Miniforum: rhinoplasty by external approach. Technical aspects of rhinoplasty by external approach].

The authors present the principle techniques of external transcolumellar rhinoplasty and stress the excellent exposure it provides, allowing effective treatment under direct vision of the anatomical structures of the nose tip, nasal spine and septum. Based on a series of 186 operated cases with a follow-up of between one and more than six years, the advantages and indications of this technique are briefly defined. The best indications are difficult nose tips, whether rhinoplasty is primary or, more particularly, when it is secondary.
