Crecimiento femorotibial en miembros inmovilizados de rata
1986
An experimental study has been carried out using rats stills in the growth stage, whose right hindlimbs have been immobilized. Weekly, during four weeks, the animals were destroyed and measurements taken of the tibias and femurs, establishing that the rate of tibialis growth was higher in the immobilized limb than in the free limb (p. o. 001). The femurs, however, showed a similarity of measurement in both limbs. Our findings show that immobilization of a limb in a functional position is in no way prejudicial to bone growth.
Glove perforation during oral surgical procedures
2006
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of glove perforation among undergraduates and residents performing maxillofacial surgery and identify procedures associated with the perforations. Study Design: For this purpose, 200 pairs of surgical gloves were used. For inspecting the perforations, the gloves were filled with water, at least 500 ml. Results: Sixteen gloves (8%) were perforated, 8 (4%) by residents and 8 (4%) by undergraduate students. Only the residents noticed that 2 gloves (1%) were perforated and identified the object causing the perforation. The left hand was the more affected with 9 perforations (4.5%). The finger pulp was the region most affected with …
Femoral kontroll blant idrettsaktive kvinner : testutvikling og sammenheng med skadehistorikk
2011
Masteroppgave i idrettsvitenskap- Universitetet i Agder 2011 Purpose: Non-contact knee injuries are often the topic of discussion in relation to injury prevention. The purpose of this study was to develop a standardized test and a standardized analysis method for quantifying changes in the femoral control in a simple but reliable way. We also wanted to quantify the relationship between femoral control and injury history in the sample. Method: Female athletes (n = 95, age = 18 ± 1 years old) who were active in various sports, conducted two weak links test and answered a questionnaire regarding their history of lower limb injury. Weak links were defined as inward rotation and / or abduction o…
Floor of the mouth hemorrhage subsequent to dental implant placement in the anterior mandible
2019
Abstract Complications in dental implant surgery are possible. Bleeding complications have been described that may be serious, particularly in the floor of the mouth. We present two cases of sublingual hematomas during dental implant osteotomies that impeded but did not close the airway. The clinical courses of these patient’s complications are reviewed. One patient had immediate hematoma formation while the other developed a hematoma overnight, presenting the next day. The treatment rendered was a precautionary in-hospital tracheotomy for the first patient and only compression control for the second. Bleeding complications during dental implant placement in the anterior mandible can be ser…
IAP proteins as targets for drug development in oncology
2013
Laurence Dubrez,1,2 Jean Berthelet,1,2 Valérie Glorian,1,21Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale (Inserm), Dijon, France; 2Université de Bourgogne, Dijon, FranceAbstract: The inhibitors of apoptosis (IAPs) constitute a family of proteins involved in the regulation of various cellular processes, including cell death, immune and inflammatory responses, cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell motility. There is accumulating evidence supporting IAP-targeting in tumors: IAPs regulate various cellular processes that contribute to tumor development, such as cell death, cell proliferation, and cell migration; their expressio…
Wie gut läßt sich der Wachstumstyp schätzen?
1990
The purpose of this study was to determine to what extent growth type can be predicted using different information. Correlations between estimated values and those measuring cephalometric growth indicators revealed that the growth type can be evaluated reasonably well by merely viewing the cephalogram. The viewer is guided by form which is represented by the Go2 angle according to Jarabak. Growth type can also be evaluated from a profile photography. The assessment can be improved if one uses a wooden spatula to determine the mandibular and occlusal planes.
Conformational investigation of αβ-dehydropeptides
2009
Solution conformations of three series of model peptides, homochiral Ac-Pro-L-Xaa-NHCH3 and heterochiral Ac-Pro-D-Xaa-NHCH3 (Xaa = Val, Phe, Leu, Abu, Ala) as well as alpha,beta-unsaturated Ac-Pro-delta Xaa-NHCH3 [delta Xaa = delta Val, (Z)-delta Phe, (Z)-delta Leu, (Z)-delta Abu] were investigated in CDCl3 and CH2Cl2 by 1H-, 13C-NMR, and FTIR spectroscopy. NH stretching absorption spectra, solvent shifts delta delta for NH (Xaa) and NHCH3 on going from CDCl3 to (CD3)2SO, diagnostic interresidue proton NOEs, and trans-cis isomer ratios were examined. These studies performed showed the essential difference in conformational propensities between homochiral peptides (L-Xaa) on the one hand and…

Muscle-Tendon Interaction During Human Dolphin-Kick Swimming
2019
Without high impact forces, it is not clear how humans can utilize tendon elasticity during low-impact activities. The purpose of the present study was to examine the muscle-tendon behavior together with the electromyographic (EMG) activities of the vastus lateralis (VL) muscle during the human dolphin-kicking. In a swimming pool, each subject (n = 11) swam the 25 m dolphin-kicking at two different speeds (NORMAL and FAST). Surface EMGs were recorded from the VL and biceps femoris (BF) muscles. Simultaneous recordings of the knee joint angle by electro-goniometer and of the VL fascicle length by ultrasonography were used to calculate the muscle-tendon unit and tendinous length of VL(L-MTU a…
Trunk and lower limb muscle activation in linear, circular and spin back kicks
2015
Background and Study Aim: As any martial art, taekwondo can be classified as a specialty that requires high technical skills, such as a fine motor control both in static and dynamic conditions. Practitioners predominantly use kicks with high amplitude in both combat and technique (poomse) modalities. The aim of this study was the knowledge about trunk and lower limb muscle activation according to the type of kick (circular, linear and spin back kick) in the taekwondo technique modality. Material and Methods: Twelve healthy and elite male taekwondo athletes voluntarily participated in this study. Surface electromyography (EMG) during maximal isometric voluntary contractions (MVC) and executi…
