Muscle force is determined also by muscle relative position: isolated effects [PDF]
Effects on force of changes of the position of extensor digitorum longus muscle (EDL) relative to surrounding tissues were investigated in rat. Connective tissue at the muscle bellies of tibialis anterior (TA), extensor hallucis longus (EHL) and EDL was ...

Background. The methods of “lengthening over the nail” (LON) and the sequential use of the external fixation and nailing in the option “lengthening and then the nail” (LATN) are characterized by ignoring non-observance of the formulated by G.A.

Limb lengthening in pediatric patients with ollier's disease
Background: Ollier's disease is a non-hereditary skeletal disorder. Orthopedic management of limb length discrepancy could be complex given the nature of bone pathology, the significant amount of length discrepancy and the difficulty to predict it.

Emerging roles of telomeric chromatin alterations in cancer [PDF]
Telomeres, the nucleoprotein structures that cap the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, play important and multiple roles in tumorigenesis. Functional telomeres need the establishment of a protective chromatin structure based on the interplay between the ...

Simultaneous Bilateral Femoral and Tibial Lengthening in Achondroplasia
Previous studies on lengthening for achondroplasia have reported bilateral extensive femoral lengthening followed by bilateral extensive tibial lengthening. To decrease trauma on soft tissues and joints, we propose bilateral simultaneous moderate femoral

Motorized Internal Lengthening of Long Bones: Residual Limb Lengthening
Distraction osteogenesis can be performed for transfemoral amputees using a motorized intramedullary limb lengthening nail (LLN) such as the 14×130 mm NuVasive Freedom nail. Despite being the shortest commercially available LLN, some patients have even shorter residual femurs, making it impossible to link the bone to the nail by the standard technique ...
