Reversible Bitemporal Hemihypokinetic Pupil Without Hemianopia: A New Chiasmal Sign by Jorge Alberto Martins Pentiado Junior (12602937)

“…In some patients, especially in those who have undergone neurosurgical procedures, visual field examination and neuroimaging may not completely reflect the classical pattern of chiasmal visual loss. We describe a novel semiological sign, reporting a patient in which a pupillary bitemporal hemihypokinesia was not accompanied by hemianopia, with the phenomenon being abolished by surgical resection of the causative pituitary macroadenoma. …”

Pollen as a component of the diet of Doru luteipes (Scudder, 1876) (Dermaptera: Forficulidade) by R. C. Marucci (5888594)

“…However, maize pollen plus earwigs in the diet provided the predator´s highest survival rate, whilst percentage of fertile females was double when fed on diets composed of S. frugiperda and R. maidis eggs. Development period decreased when D. luteipes nymphs consumed artificial diet plus pollen but there were high fecundity rates (number of laying/female and total egg/female) and a greater percentage of fertile females when they were fed on maize pollen.…”
