Implementation of Preparedness Efforts for Rip Current Hazard at Pangandaran Beach [PDF]

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences
Rip currents are powerful current that flow from the shore through the surf zone and out to deeper waters. These currents play a critical role in coastal dynamics but they are also of significant concern for beach safety, as they pose a threat to ...

Arthroscopic Bicortical Biceps Anchorage: An Arthroscopic‐Assisted Technique for Subpectoral Biceps Tenodesis

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Long head of the biceps tendon pathology is a frequent cause of anterior shoulder pain. Tenotomy is technically simple but may lead to cosmetic deformity and muscle cramping, whereas tenodesis better preserves the biceps contour but involves a more complex procedure. Multiple surgical techniques and fixation methods are available.

Supine‐Position Shoulder Arthroscopy Using the Anterior Portal as the Initial Approach

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Traditional shoulder arthroscopy mostly adopts the beach chair position or lateral decubitus position. Beach chair position is associated with the risk of cerebral hypoperfusion due to the vertical distance between the carotid artery and the heart, whereas lateral decubitus may induce brachial plexus palsy caused by excessive traction.

Rip Currents and Beach Safety Education [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Coastal Research, 2010
Rip currents are the most serious hazard that threatens bather safety on most of the world’s surf beaches. Due to unreliable and inconsistent data collection methods, the number of rip drownings in the U.S. and worldwide is not known. However in the U.S., it is estimated that between 100 and 150, mostly inexperienced bathers drown annually in rip ...

Ultrasound‐Assisted Arthroscopic Remplissage

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation, especially in cases with an engaging Hill–Sachs lesion, can lead to high recurrence rates following Bankart repair alone. Remplissage, an adjunct technique involving the infraspinatus and teres minor, enhances stability by converting the intra‐articular Hill–Sachs lesion into an extra‐articular defect ...

Mapping Heavy Metal Concentrations in Beach Sands Using GIS and Portable XRF Data

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
It is necessary to investigate the contamination of beach sands to ensure water safety, as they may contain potentially toxic trace elements. Tourists, oil spills, or replenishing sands can cause beach sand contamination.

How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...
