Is the length of the calcarine sulcus associated with the size of the human visual cortex?
The size of area 17 cannot be estimated by the length of the calcarine sulcus in MR images. Depth and length of the calcarine sulcus grow independently in the human brain. Different degrees of folding may cause the variability of architectonic areas.
Our data support the concept that serum 25(OH)D concentrations are associated with risk and prognosis of melanoma. Whether normalizing serum 25(OH)D concentrations in these patients improves outcomes will require testing in future clinical trials.
