Surgical and nonsurgical treatments for proximal femur fractures: A narrative review
The number of proximal femoral fractures is increasing due to traumatic injuries, falls, and heavy exercises. In femoral neck fractures, a number of screws or a device called dynamic hip screw (DHS) are commonly used to fix the fractured hip.

Function-Orientated Structural Analysis of the Proximal Human Femur [PDF]
In his model of the biomechanics of the proximal human femur, Friedrich Pauwels assumes a resultant force acting on the femoral head that is created by the partial body weight and the force of the abductor muscles inserting at the greater trochanter ...

The expression of MYH7 gene in femur, humeral muscle and back muscle tissues of fattening lambs of the Kermani breed [PDF]
ObjectiveSkeletal muscles make up about 40% of body weight and are responsible for many functions, such as maintaining required energy, maintaining body condition, and protecting tissues. Normal growth of skeletal muscles is a prerequisite for animals to

Bone-to-bone and implant-to-bone impingement : a novel graphical representation for hip replacement planning [PDF]
Bone-to-bone impingement (BTBI) and implant-to-bone impingement (ITBI) risk assessment is generally performed intra-operatively by surgeons, which is entirely subjective and qualitative, and therefore, lead to sub-optimal results and recurrent ...

The treatment of subtrochanteric fractures [PDF]
Subtrochanteric fractures of the femur have a special place because of a significant number of complications following treatment. Powerful loading forces asymmetrically acting to this bone segment, as well as poor vascularization interfere with bone ...

Chemical composition of bone tissue in broiler chickens intended for slaughter
Selected parameters characterizing the chemical composition of bones were determined in 60 male and 60 female hybrid Ross 308 chickens aged 40 days at the end of the fattening period. The chickens received a complete feed mixture intended for pre-feeding

Collo-Diaphyseal Angle as an Optimal Anthropometric Criterion of Femur in Gender Determination [PDF]
Background: Gender determination is an important challenge in the identification of skeletal remnants and dismembered bodies. The femur bone is more likely to be preserved during accidents and over time; thus, it is one of the most useful bones in ...

The first Neanderthal remains from an open-air Middle Palaeolithic site in the Levant [PDF]
The late Middle Palaeolithic (MP) settlement patterns in the Levant included the repeated use of caves and open landscape sites. The fossil record shows that two types of hominins occupied the region during this period - Neandertals and Homo sapiens ...
