With the introduction of each new generation of combat aircraft it has become popular to assume that they will be operated in a more conservative manner than previously and that less attention, therefore, need be paid to their spinning characteristics. Current experience, however, shows that inadvertent spins will continue to occur, and must be allowed for, if these aircraft are to be operated effectively and to the limit of their capability.In this connection the Hunter provides an interesting case history, since it has been put to widescale use in a variety of roles and its erect and inverted spinning characteristics have been thoroughly investigated. These characteristics will be described both for their own sake and because of the applicability which they have to current high performance aircraft.

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is a rare tumor of intermediate malignancy. We report a case of intracranial and intraorbitar EHE. A 3-year-old girl presented with a 3-month history of progressive left exophthalmia. Neuroradiologic imaging (CT scan and MRI) showed an intraorbitar process with an intense enhancement extending to temporal fossa, ethmoidal bone, nasal fossa, maxillary sinus, and cavernous sinus. The angiogram was normal. The tumor was operated through subfrontal approach but only a partial resection was performed. The histological diagnosis was epithelioid hemangioendothelioma. The patient was neurologically intact 2 months after surgery without exophtalmia. However 4 months after surgery he displayed a fall of the right eye vision with intense headache. Control CT scan showed persistence of important tumoral residue. Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a hemorrhagic tumor. Total removal must be possible. Otherwise, we recommend a complementary chemoradiotherapy and close followup. We propose this interesting case history of a tragical evolution of EHE in contradiction with what has already been reported.

Hinds et al.’s paper is an interesting case history describing the acquisition and interpretive processing of VSP data and presenting an integrated interpretation of well log, surface seismic, and vertical seismic profile data. However, a question of principle arises. What is an integrated interpretation?

Purpose Misophonia is a sound tolerance disorder condition in certain sounds that trigger intense emotional or physiological responses. While some persons may experience misophonia, a few patients suffer from misophonia. However, there is a dearth of literature on audiological assessment and management of persons with misophonia. The purpose of this report is to discuss the assessment of misophonia and highlight the management option that helped a patient with misophonia. Method A case study of a 26-year-old woman with the complaint of decreased tolerance to specific sounds affecting quality of life is reported. Audiological assessment differentiated misophonia from hyperacusis. Management included retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy based on the principles described by P. J. Jastreboff and Jastreboff (2014). A misophonia questionnaire was administered at regular intervals to monitor the effectiveness of therapy. Results A detailed case history and audiological evaluations including pure-tone audiogram and Johnson Hyperacusis Index revealed the presence of misophonia. The patient benefitted from intervention, and the scores of the misophonia questionnaire indicated a decrease in the severity of the problem. Conclusions It is important to differentially diagnose misophonia and hyperacusis in persons with sound tolerance disorders. Retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy can help patients who suffer from misophonia.

Purpose The purpose of this article is to present a client-centered model of counseling that integrates information and personal adjustment counseling. Research has indicated that audiologists are more comfortable with counseling that is information based than with personal adjustment counseling. The prevailing model of diagnosis appears to be the medical model in which, first, a case history is taken, then testing and, finally, counseling. This model lends itself to audiologist as expert and the counseling as a separate entity based on information and advice. Further research has indicated parents retain little of the information provided in the initial examination because of their heightened emotions. This article presents a client-centered model of diagnosis in which information is provided within an emotionally safe context, enabling the parents to express their feelings and have the ability to control the flow of information. The ultimate purpose of a client-centered model is to empower parents by making them active participants in the diagnostic process rather than passive recipients. Conclusion The client-centered model has wide implications for the diagnostic process as well as for the training of students.
