Functional imaging of the pelvic floor

European Journal of Radiology, 2003
Pelvic floor dysfunction and associated pelvic organ prolapse represent a major problem in our present-day society, mostly afflicting parous women. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is assuming an increasingly important role in the more accurate delineation of the extent of the problem.

Sexual function and pelvic floor disorders

Best Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2005
Sexual wellbeing is an important aspect of women's health. Female sexual dysfunction is multifactorial and involves physical, social and psychological dimensions. Dysfunction may result from lack of sexual desire, sexual pain or arousal, and orgasmic problems.

Mucociliary Function During Maxillary Sinus Floor Elevation

Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2010
Maxillary sinus floor elevation carries the potential risk of compromising the sinus physiology. The aim of this study was to prospectively assess mucociliary function during maxillary sinus augmentation in patients without preoperative signs of maxillary sinusitis.

Pelvic floor: anatomy and function

Neurogastroenterology & Motility, 2006
Abstract  The pelvic floor is a dome‐shaped striated muscular sheet that encloses the bladder, uterus, and rectum, and, together with the anal sphincters, has an important role in regulating storage and evacuation of urine and stool. This article reviews the anatomy, nerve supply, pharmacology, and functions of the anal sphincters and the pelvic floor.

Linear Sums on the Floor Function and Three Arithmetic Functions

Mathematical Notes, 2022
In this paper, the author studies the sums \(\sum_{d|n}f(d)\) and \(\sum^\prime_{d\mid n}f(d)\), in terms of the floor function, where \(\sum^\prime\) means that the sum runs over the divisors of \(n\) such that \(n/d\) is odd. The author considers the cases \(f\) to be Jordan's totient function, the power function, and the Liouville function.
