Social class and envy among Chinese undergraduates: Victim justice sensitivity as a mediator
Authors: Hong You-Juan , Lin Rong-Mao , Lian Rong
Published: April 2020

We examined the relationship between social class and envy, and the role of victim justice sensitivity in this relationship among a group of 1,405 Chinese undergraduates. The students completed measures of subjective social class, victim justice sensitivity, and dispositional envy.
The results show that a lower social class was significantly and negatively related to envy and victim justice sensitivity, whereas victim justice sensitivity was significantly and positively related to envy. As predicted, a lower social class was very closely correlated with envy. In addition,
individuals with a lower (vs. higher) social class had a greater tendency toward victim justice sensitivity, which, in turn, increased their envy. Overall, our results advance scholarly research on the psychology of social hierarchy by clarifying the relationship between social class and the
negative emotion of envy.

Published: April 2020

The purpose of this study is to design a digital module based on mathematical communication skills. This a development research which is carried out to determine the use of poor learning media and students’ low comprehensive skills in understanding mathematical topics associated with relations and functions. One of the solutions used to overcome this problem is by designing a digital teaching module using media. The research and development method consisting of Analysis, Design, Development, implementation, and Evaluation (ADDIE), were used to carry out this study. The results showed that the digital module is highly valid with a total expert validation of 95.1% and in the very good category. Also, the students' response to the digital module is in the very good category, with a total response criterion of 89.8%. Therefore, the designed digital module has the ability to improve students' independence in learning because its use is not limited to classrooms.
“Talking the Talk”: A Case Study in Teaching about Jargon in an Undergraduate Writing-Intensive Anthropology Course
Authors: Brown Shan-Estelle
Published: April 2020

Jargon is frequently considered a “bad” word in the realm of professional writing. Most books on technical writing devote only a small section to explaining the use of technical language with a stern caveat discouraging its use. However, proper use of discipline-specific terms implies membership into a club of professionals who correctly “talk the talk” with each other in their writing. For novice student writers who are just beginning to hone their skills writing in a specific discipline, how can they learn to emulate the writing of professionals?In this paper, I argue that effective use of discipline-specific vocabulary is not discussed often enough pedagogically and that this skill is an important vehicle to professionalize students so that they become more confident writers of anthropology. This paper outlines techniques used in a writing-intensive introductory anthropology course and seeks to raise more dialogue about writing pedagogy in anthropology.
Challenging Fieldwork Researching Large-Scale Massacres in Algeria
Authors: Ghanem Yazbeck Dalia zina
Published: April 2020

This paper is based on my research experience in an area that was the scene of a massacre: Bentalha, a hamlet, 30 km away from the Algerian capital Algiers. This massacre took place on September 22-23, 1997 during the “black decade” (1991-2001), a period of the civil war during which 150,000 people were killed, 7,000[i] disappeared and 1 million internally displaced. After a background section on the history of this conflict, the paper describes the setting where my fieldwork took place. This article discusses my experience on the field as well as the emotions such as frustration, fear, anxiety and vicarious traumatization that I experienced in the process. It also addresses questions of self-reflexivity, positionality and the insider/outsider status. I am writing from the perspective of an Algerian sociologist trained in France, yet my experience in doing fieldwork “at home” can be useful to other scholars who do or plan to do fieldwork in dangerous places in their countries or societies.Notes[i]. It is very hard to obtain an accurate estimate of the total number of victims. However, the Algerian President, Abdelaziz Bouteflika declared during a press conference in Paris on June 2000 that the number of victims was 150,000.

Hegzaklorosiklohegzan (HCH): CaO kullanılarak Mekanokimyasal Parçalanma Prosesinin Optimizasyonu
Authors: PELİTLİ Volkan , KURT Uğur
Published: April 2020

Tarımsal amaçlı pestisit olarak hegzaklorosiklohegzan (HCH, C6H6Cl6) kullanımı, tehlikeli olması nedeniyle artık birçok ülkede yasaklanmış olmasına rağmen, günümüzde hala HCH stokları bulunmaktadır. Bu noktada mekanokimyasal parçalanma (MKP) yöntemi HCH izomerlerinin çevresel bertarafı için büyük bir potansiyele sahiptir. Ancak baskın HCH izomerlerinin (α, β-, γ- ve δ-HCH) bir arada tatmin edici şekilde parçalanmasını sağlamak, enerji tüketimini azaltmak ve deklorinasyon verimliliğini arttırmak için daha fazla araştırmaya ve daha iyi reaksiyon koşulları için optimize edilmesine ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Geçmiş çalışmalarda dönüş hızı, bilye boyutu ve kütle oranları gibi işletme koşullarının bireysel etkileri ortaya konsa da, genel parametreler arasındaki etkileşimler hala belirsizdir. Mevcut çalışmada, gezegen hareketli bilyalı değirmen kullanılarak ilk kez parametreler arasındaki ilişkiler, tepki yüzey modeli (TYM) ve Box-Behnken Dizayn (BBD) tasarımı istatistiksel yöntemi kullanılarak araştırılmış ve HCH izomerlerine elektron sağlayan kalsiyum oksit (CaO) varlığında MKP’nin parçalama verimi üzerinde etkili olan işletme parametre etkileşimleri optimize edilmiştir. Deneysel sonuçlar, en iyi parçalanma veriminin (%100) 480 dk.’da 1/20 (0,05) HCH/CaO şarj oranı ile 1/5 (0,2) karışım/bilye kütle oranı ve 700 devir/dakika dönüş hızında elde edildiğini göstermiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, işletme parametrelerinin optimizasyonu baskın HCH izomerlerinin bir arada parçalanmasının etkin ve hızlı bir şekilde gerçekleşmesini sağlamıştır. Bu yaklaşım, diğer kalıcı organik kirleticilerin (KOK) mekanokimyasal yöntemle alan dışında (ex situ) bertarafında da faydalı olacaktır.
Assessing the Value of the Arts
Authors: Oliver James , Walmsley Ben
Published: April 2020

This chapter presents a general introduction to the contemporary concern of public value in relation to the arts, and particularly how this relates to the concept of social impact — an issue that has dominated the public funding agenda for the arts in the UK and beyond since the 1990s. What follows is an analysis of how the public value of the arts has been framed and assessed in recent times, and how this reflects adaptations to changes in the political climate. This analysis will be illustrated through a brief historical and conceptual overview of attempts to capture public value, followed by a review and critical evaluation of some models and frameworks that have attempted to capture the benefits of the arts. The challenges of assessing and measuring value will then be further discussed through case study on the National Theatre of Scotland’s production, Black Watch, to demonstrate the reductive nature of traditional models and point towards the need for developing more nuanced and reflexive approaches to assessing value, informed (and preferably led) by the practice of the art in question. We can call this a ‘situational’ approach to research. The chapter therefore argues for approaches informed by these principles. Drawing parallels with themes from Performance Studies, it suggests that greater account needs to be given to context and the conditions of the context, including its social formation and relations, which requires reflexivity and ethnographic analysis. The chapter concludes by reflecting on the dialectical conditions of value (as both instrumental and intrinsic), particularly emphasising the spatial dimension of practice, which emphasises that the arts are not just situated in a temporal context of ideological shifts, but are active players in the making of value as a practice of cultural production. This spatial dimension is brought into being as a practice of social relations through articulations of inter-subjective values, thereby broadening the dialogue on the subject of public value and considering the productive value of the arts as a wider practice of living.

Water is one of the basic human needs for various daily needs. One source of water that is often used by the general public is river water. With proper utilization, river water can support the economic development of the surrounding community. The main priority for water use is for domestic use such as drinking water and household needs and also used for industrial, agricultural, plantation, livestock, fishery, and so on. Optimal use of rivers for irrigation areas must be supported by information related to river conditions and buildings in rivers. Therefore it is necessary to make a database related to river conditions and irrigation building conditions. One of the software used in making a river database in the Provincial Irrigation Authority on Timor Island is Quantum Geographic Information System (QGIS) because it is open-source software that does not require a license but provides ample room for users to add functions such as software other paid mapping.

Incidencia del polen de Quercus en la atmósfera de Málaga y su relación con los parámetros meteorológicos
Authors: Recio Marta , Trigo M. Mar , Toro F. Javier , Cabezudo Baltasar
Published: April 2020

En este trabajo se presentan los resultados aerobiológicos obtenidos en Málaga para el tipopolínico Quercus, tras el muestreo realizado durante los años 1992-1998 por medio de un captador volumétrico de tipo Hirst. Se analizan los comportamientos estacionales e intradiarios que ha presentadocada año, así como su relación con los principales parámetros meteorológicos. Asimismo, se comparan estos resultados con los obtenidos en otras ciudades españolas y europeas. El polen de Quercus se detectaen la atmósfera de Málaga fundamentalmente durante los meses de Marzo, Abril y Mayo, registrándose las máximas concentraciones generalmente en Abril, con la excepción de 1997, en que se adelantó a Marzo. Se trata de un taxon que durante un buen número de días alcanza concentraciones de altas (50-100 granos/ m 3 ) a muy altas (>100 granos/ m 3), habiéndose llegado a obtener concentraciones medias diarias de hasta 1578granos/ m 3 durante 1997. Las cantidades totales de polen detectadas fueron muy variables de un año a otro, sin embargo, respecto al resto de los tipos polínicos que se registran en Málaga, el polen de Quercus casi siempre ocupa el tercer puesto en orden de abundancia anual, después del de olivo y del de cupresáceas. En cuanto a distribución intradiaria no presentan un comportamiento estable aunque, en general, ha mostrado una ligera tendencia a aumentar durante la noche y la madrugada. Las correlaciones obtenidas entre los valores diarios de concentración atmosférica de polen y diferentes parámetros meteorológicos demuestran que, en Málaga, la presencia de este tipo polínico siempre se asocia positivamente con parámetros indicadores de calor (insolación y temperatura), velocidad y dirección noroeste del viento y, negativamente, con la frecuencia de calma y del resto de las direcciones de vientos. Estas correlaciones obtenidas con viento parecen indicar que la mayoría de los pólenes de Quercus que se registran en Málaga proceden de las sierras del interior, donde se encuentran las mejores poblaciones de encinas, coscojas y Febrero-Marzo), que favorecieron la maduración y apertura de la mayoría de las yemas florales formadas.

Authors: Pérez Latorre Andrés V. , Galán de Mera Antonio , Navas Patricia , Navas David , Gil Yolanda , Cabezudo Baltasar
Published: April 2020

Se ha realizado un estudio de la flora, vegetación y paisaje vegetal del Parque Natural de Los Alcornocales, situado en las provincias de Cádiz y Málaga (SW de la Península Ibérica, Andalucía). La altitud máxima en el Parque es de 1091 m.; la litología dominante es a base de areniscas silíceas y arcillas salvo en el NW donde predominan las calizas. Las precipitaciones son muy abundantes (entre 800 y 1400 mm.) así como el régimen de nieblas causado por la cercanía al Estrecho de Gibraltar; se reconocen dos pisos bioclimáticos, termo y mesomediterráneo con oceanidad acusada. Como resultado se han catalogado unos 1300 taxones de plantas vasculares, destacándose en este trabajo las especies protegidas, endemismos o primeras citas para Andalucía Occidental, de entre ellas 9 son pteridófitos relícticos de gran valor fitogeográfico. Se han inventariado un total de 89 asociaciones y comunidades. Se realizan comentarios sobre sintaxones de rango superior a asociación. Se lectotipifica una subasociación y se neotipifica una asociación. Se describen como nuevos sintáxones un orden (Rhododendro pontici-Prunetalia lusitanicae), dos alianzas (Rhododendro pontici-Prunion lusitanicae y Salicion pedicellatae), 6 asociaciones, 4 subasociaciones y 6 combinaciones. Se reconocen 6 series climatófilas de las cuales es nueva una de quejigares sobre calizas (Oleo sylvestris-Querceto broteroi S), otras dos son de alcornocales sobre areniscas (Quereos suber), una de quejigares morunos en zonas más húmedas (Quereos canariensis), una de robledales en las cumbres (Quereos pyrenaica) y una de encinares sobre calizas en zonas basales (Quercus rotundifolia). Como serie mixta ligada a las condiciones de los vertisoles se desarrolla una serie de acebuchales (Oleo sylvestris). Como vegetación permanente sobre calizas aparecen algarrobales (Ceratonia siliqua), sobre areniscas aparecen enebrales (Juniperus oxycedrus), en cumbres azotadas por el viento reconocemos una comunidad con quejigueta (Quereos lusitanica) y una variante relictual edafoxerófila sobre areniscas con pino negral (Pinos pinaster). Como serie mixta ligada a las condiciones de humedad tanto ambiental como edáfica se desarrollan ojaranzales (Rhododendron ponticum) similares a las formaciones de laurisilva macaronésica. Las series edafohigrófilas del Parque son: las alisedas (Alnus glutinosa), las saucedas (Salix pedicellata), las choperas (Populus alba), las fresnedas (Fraxinus angusttfolia),los adelfares (Nerium oleander), los tarajales (Tamarix africana) y los brezales edafohidrófilos (Erica ciliaris). Existen así mismo mosaicos de comunidades ligadas a Corredores ecológicos, entornos humanos, rupícolas, epífitas, aerohalófilas, de medios acuáticos y salinos. Finalmente se presentan el esquema sintaxonómico comentado, las tablas fitosociológicas correspondientes a las novedades y un mapa de las series de vegetación del Parque.

Naturalism and political science: adaptation to the non-classical world picture
Authors: Alekseeva T. A. , Mineyev A. P.
Published: April 2020

Introduction. One of the greatest achievements of the humanity is obviously the recognition of the systematic unity of the natural and social knowledge. However, this recognition was not constant. The emergence, development and history of political sciences reflected it rather evidently, tending to go from one extreme to another – from identifying its methods with those of positive science to pretending to be unique or even universal. All these questions acquired special importance in the new non-classical world, but the adaptation of political sciences to a new type of thinking meets considerable difficulties.

Methods of study. The main method of the study is comparative analysis of the variations to connect philosophical and substantive (ontological and epistemological) tools with political and applied ones of researching political and international political processes and phenomena. Moreover, the authors also used the interpretation approach.

Results. The analysis of the most significant approaches towards the political and international processes demonstrate that the acceptance of the new postulates of non-classical and post-nonclassical pictures of the world is quite complicated. Simultaneously with the preservation of the pure mechanistic, approach some of the elements of the new world pictures were taken from quantum physics, biology. The chance factor and the rejection of the casual relationships were also taken into consideration. Nevertheless, it is better to speak not about the transfer of the methods and approaches from natural to political sciences, but about the attempts to build “weak” theories or analogues of theories (for instance, quantum-like theories). Nevertheless, generally speaking, political as well as other social sciences tend to be developing capturing the zeitgeist.

Discussion and Conclusions. The adaptation of political sciences to new scientific pictures of the world is inevitable, but limited by definition: for all unity of knowledge as such, their methods and tools are very different and even undergo such significant changes and simplifications in the process of adaptation that they often retain only the names and imitations of the methodologies of other sciences. And yet, at least we have to go in parallel. But some caution here would not hurt at all.
International legal framework for energy cooperation between the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union
Authors: Glikman O. V. , Nazarova A. U.
Published: April 2020

Introduction. Energy cooperation of the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union plays a crucial role in the framework of the Eurasian economic integration. The EAEU members set as their goal the creation of common energy markets of the Union by 2025.The legal doctrine comprises different opinions regarding the legal nature of the EAEU and the EAEU law, which is important for the analysis of international legal aspects of the cooperation of the EAEU members in the energy sector, as well as for the formation of the EAEU energy law.The article analyzes the energy provisions of the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union, the role of national legislation and bilateral international treaties of the EAEU members in the energy sector.

Materials and methods. The EAEU legal acts, previous acts of the EurAsEC, the existing bilateral international treaties of the EAEU members in the energy sector, the works of prominent authors affecting Eurasian integration have been used. The research methodology was based on the following theoretical methods of cognition: analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, analogy, as well as special methods of cognition of legal phenomena and processes: comparative legal and formal legal.

Results. The study summarizes the legal acts of the EAEU in the field of energy of various legal nature, highlights the gaps and weaknesses of the energy provisions of the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union, identifies differences in the approaches of the EAEU and EurAsEC, analyzes the provisions of the Treaty regarding national legislation and bilateral international treaties of the EAEU members in the field of energy.

Discussion and conclusions. The acts of the EAEU law in the field of energy are considered as the EAEU energy law which, as well as the European Union energy law, is a part of the international energy law.The identified gaps and weaknesses in the energy provisions of the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union can be used to improve the EAEU energy law.Despite the development of multilateral regulation of energy cooperation through the EAEU legal acts aimed at the formation of common EAEU energy markets the national legislation of the EAEU members remains important in the field of energy and a lot of work will be required to harmonize and unify it. In addition the bilateral international treaties of the EAEU members governing energy cooperation are of great importance.
The philosophical and methodological issues of Mongolia’s civilization in the multi-polar world
Authors: Gelegpil Chuluunbaatar , Oidov Khatanbold , Zhelezniakov A. S.
Published: April 2020

Introduction. The article is devoted to the evaluation of topical ideas of Inner Asia civilization in the multi-polar world. Without doubt, in contemporary global world it is essential for each country to creatively explore ideas and scientific civilizational theories to define its place in modern global community. Today the Mongols actively explore these theories and doctrines which have linkage to Western origin, but the research deserves a creative approach and does not fit properly the national reality and specifics.

Material and methods. To define the specific features of Mongolian civilization the authors study philosophical doctrines of existence in harmony, doctrine of duality, time, Buddism – all the ideas that influenced the Mongolian views on “nation” and “democracy”, historical lessons and geopolitics.

Results. At present Mongolia has a tough choice in pursuing foreign policy. Three main world development centers- the USA, China and Russia- have emerged and the threat of a potential conflict between them have increased. It is apparent that this process in the future will strongly influence the present and further development of each region and country in the world. Thus the fundamental issues concerning the methodological approach in development philosophy as well as in civilizational philosophy appeared alongside the changes in world situation. The issue of national identity should not be excluded from the political agenda as well as historical and development issues from policy analysis.

Discussion and Conclusions. Mongolia in respect to its geographical location belongs to the Asia-Pacific region. In the civilizational aspect Mongols are nomadic nation. These two factors are fundamental conditions for the shaping of national identity. In context of civilizational affinity and national identity Mongols are more close to the Central Asian space. In this area such regional organizations as the Shanghai Cooperation Organization and APEC operate. However, Mongolia is not a member of these organizations and cannot efficiently participate in big regional and world projects and programs having the status of observer. Hence the membership in these regional organizations and the significant economic growth are strategically important for Mongolia.

Published: April 2020

Although the mountain is a popular tourist destination, research regarding mountain tourism is still limited. Over the years, researches on tourist satisfaction covered a more general context of tourism, without specifically analyzing mountain tourism. Therefore, this research aims to investigates factors influencing tourists’ satisfaction on mountain tourism, with Mount Papandayan, Garut Regency, West Java, Indonesia, as a case. Eleven variables regarding tourist satisfaction were derived from several interviews with Mount Papandayan’s management staff and 30 tourists that were hiking and camping on Mount Papandayan. A sample of 100 respondents, who were the Mount Papandayan’s tourists that had been hiking and camping, completed questionnaires. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to analyze the data. The results show that there are three factors that affect tourist’s satisfaction in mountain tourism, which are ‘infrastructure and facilities’, ‘natural resources’, and ‘mountain area’s atmosphere’, while CFA validated the model fit. The results also indicated a significant relationship between the three factors. This research provides an opportunity for broader research opportunities in mountain tourism, especially in tropical countries.

Packing density and long-term occlusion after transcatheter vessel embolization with soft, bare-platinum detachable coils
Authors: Vogler IV James , Gemender Mark , Samoilov Dmitri
Published: April 2020

Objective:

The objective of this study was to examine packing density and long-term recanalization rates after embolization with soft, bare-platinum ruby coils in the gastroduodenal artery (GDA).

Materials and Methods:

Retrospective case review of patients with hepatic malignancy who underwent coil occlusion of the GDA for radioembolization or hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy between November 2013 and July 2018. Data on patient demographics, GDA diameter, length of coil pack, and distance between GDA origin and most proximal coil were collected. Packing density was calculated as the ratio between the volume of inserted coils and the volume of the vessel area that were filled with coil. The primary outcome was the rate of GDA recanalization, determined by review of hepatic arteriograms at follow-up.

Results:

Long-term occlusion free of recanalization was observed in 97.8% (88/90) of patients over a median follow-up time of 13.4 ± 11.3 months. Median vessel packing density was 55% (interquartile range 41–71) and procedural technical success was achieved in 100% (90/90) of patients. Of the 90 patients (72 men; mean age 63.8 ± 7.5 years), mean GDA diameter was 4.0 ± 0.8 mm and the proximal coil distance from GDA origin was 8.6 ± 3.0 mm. Mean coil pack length was 21.2 ± 7.6 mm. Recanalization occurred in 2.2% (2/90) of patients. No increase in recanalization rates with distal coil placement was observed.

Conclusions:

The study demonstrates high levels of technical success and low rates of recanalization (2.2%) when high packing densities (55%) are achieved using soft, bare-platinum ruby coils. The rate of recanalization at follow-up compares favorably to previously reported literature.
A biphasic tumor in posterior cranial fossa and the pineal region in young adult
Authors: Almahariq Fadi , Raguz Marina , Romic Dominik , Dlaka Domagoj , Oreskovic Darko , Sesar Patricija , Chudy Darko
Published: April 2020

Background:

Biphasic tumors of the central nervous system are rarely described and mainly consisted out of the glial and mesenchymal component. The tumor originated out of both astrocytes and pinealocytes, best to our knowledge, has not been described. We present a case of a brain tumor consisted out of pilocytic astrocytoma (PA) and pineocytoma as components situated in the pineal region and posterior cranial fossa in young adult.

Case Description:

We present a 21-year-old patient with a history of intermittent headache, followed by nausea and vomiting, double vision, and dextropulsion. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an extensive cystic-solid expansive formation in the posterior cranial fossa with a solid part in the area of the pineal gland. The patient underwent surgical resection. The pathohistological analysis showed two types of tumor cells; the major part of tumor showed features of PA, while minor part corresponded to pineocytoma.

Conclusion:

PA accounts for 5% of all gliomas and is most common in children and young adults. It usually occurs in the cerebellum, the optic pathway, third ventricular region, etc. Pineocytomas are rare, accounting up to 1% of all intracranial tumors. Since tumors origin is different, there must be complex molecular events or mutations that can lead to cell rearrangements and generation of two histologically different tissues in the same tumor mass. The course of treatment options is different for PA and pineocytoma; therefore, the case of brain mass consisted out of two different tissues can be helpful when deciding about the treatment of tumors in posterior cranial fossa and pineal region.
Magnetic resonance angiography with ultrashort echo time evaluates cerebral aneurysm with clip

Published: April 2020

Contrast-enhanced computed tomography angiography is usually valuable for the evaluation of clipped cerebral aneurysm, but it has side effects of contrast medium. Time-of-flight magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is a non-invasive and fast method. However, clip-induced artifact limits assessment of the artery in the vicinity of a clip. MRA with ultrashort echo time (TE) reduces metal artifact. We use MAGNETOM Aera 1.5T (SIEMENS, München, Germany) and perform pointwise encoding time reduction with radial acquisition (PETRA)-MRA using ultrashort TE for the assessment of the cerebral aneurysm after clipping. We, herein, presented two representative cases with a clipped aneurysm which could be evaluated by PETRA- MRA. Especially in one of them, the neck remnant was revealed by PETRA-MRA. PETRA-MRA can reduce the time and the invasiveness and may be helpful for the usual follow-up of the clipped aneurysm with the development of MRA technology in the future.
Rare dorsal thoracic arachnoid web mimics spinal cord herniation on imaging
Authors: Aljuboori Zaid , Boakye Maxwell
Published: April 2020

Background:

Dorsal arachnoid webs (DAWs) are rare clinical entities that can mimic other conditions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Here, we present a case of DAW that was misdiagnosed on MR as a ventral cord herniation.

Case Description:

A 35-year-old female presented with a 1-year history of lower extremity weakness and numbness. The MRI of the thoracic spine showed ventral cord displacement with syringomyelia. The computed tomography myelogram demonstrated ventral cord herniation. Intraoperatively, the patient had a dorsal thoracic web in the absence of cord herniation. Within 8 postoperative weeks, the patient had improved, and the follow-up MI showed a significant reduction in the syrinx size.

Conclusion:

On MR scans, DAWs may look like ventral cord herniation. However, the positive “scalpel sign” and syrinx, the absence of an arachnoid cyst on myelography, and the findings on cine MR help differentiate DAWs from ventral cord herniation.
