Examples of median eminence in the following topics:
-
- Median
eminence: Allows for the transport of neurohormones between the CSF and the
peripheral blood supply.
-
- These
include the circumventricular organs such as the area postrema, median eminence
of the hypothalamus, pineal gland, and
the posterior pituitary.
- The
median eminence is not covered by BBB because the pituitary secretions collect
in this area before release into circulation.
-
- Neuroendocrine neurons in the hypothalamus project axons to the median eminence, at the base of the brain.
-
- Carpal tunnel syndrome is an entrapment median neuropathy of the median nerve due to its compression at the wrist in the carpal tunnel.
- Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is an entrapment median neuropathy, causing paresthesia, pain, numbness, and other symptoms in the distribution of the median nerve due to its compression at the wrist in the carpal tunnel .
- The pathophysiology is not completely understood but can be attributed to the compression of the median nerve traveling through the carpal tunnel.
- Long-standing CTS leads to permanent nerve damage with constant numbness, atrophy of some of the muscles of the thenar eminence, and weakness of palmar abduction.
- Carpal tunnel syndrome can be associated with any condition that causes pressure on the median nerve at the wrist.
-
- State whether it is the mean or median that minimizes the mean absolute
- State whether it is the mean or median that minimizes the mean squared deviation
- The mean and median are both 5.
- Absolute and squared deviations from the median of 4 and the mean of 6.8
- The distribution balances at the mean of 6.8 and not at the median of 4.0
-
- The median is the middle value in distribution when the values are arranged in ascending or descending order.
- There are three main measures of central tendency: the mode, the median and the mean .
- The median divides the distribution in half (there are 50% of observations on either side of the median value).
- In a distribution with an odd number of observations, the median value is the middle value.
- Comparison of mean, median and mode of two log-normal distributions with different skewness.
-
- The mean, the median, and the mode are each 7 for these data.
- In a perfectly symmetrical distribution, the mean and the median are the same.
- The mean is 6.3, the median is 6.5, and the mode is 7.
- The mean and the median both reflect the skewing but the mean more so.
- The mean is 7.7, the median is 7.5, and the mode is 7.
-
- They reported the mean household income and the median age of theatergoers.
- What might have guided their choice of the mean or median?
- Therefore the mean is probably higher than the median, which results in higher income and lower age than if the median household income and mean age had been presented.
-
- (a) Which is more affected by extreme observations, the mean or median?
- The median and IQR are called robust estimates because extreme observations have little effect on their values.
- The median and IQR do not change much under the three scenarios in Table 1.27.
- The median and IQR are only sensitive to numbers near Q1, the median, and Q3.
- 1.35: Buyers of a "regular car" should be concerned about the median price.
-
- The median of a finite list of numbers can be found by arranging all the observations from lowest value to highest value and picking the middle one (e.g., the median of $\{3, 5, 9, \}$ is 5).
- The median of a finite list of numbers can be found by arranging all the observations from lowest value to highest value and picking the middle one (e.g., the median of $\{3,5, 9\}$ is 5).
- The mean is 2.5, as is the median.
- In this case, the arithmetic mean is 6.2 and the median is 4.
- Unlike mean and median, the concept of mode also makes sense for "nominal data" (i.e., not consisting of numerical values in the case of mean, or even of ordered values in the case of median).
