Increased protein concentration in synovial fluids of temporomandibular joints with joint effusion in patients with temporomandibular disorders [PDF]
MR画像で認められるjoint effusionの生物学的意義を検討するため, 顎関節症患者の関節滑液中の蛋白濃度を, Joint effusionの有無で比較検討した。対象としては, パンピングマニピュレーションを行った顎関節症患者のうち, MRIを撮像し得た27症例38関節である。コントロールとして, 顎関節に症状のない健常人女性, 5例6関節を用いた。Joint effusion像は矢状断でT2強調画像にて高信号域を示し, プロトン強調画像にてその信号が減弱するものとし, 0点から4点までの5段階(

Detection of Leg Diseases in Broiler Chickens Based on Improved YOLOv8 X-Ray Images
With the excessive selection for body weight (BW) and breast muscle weight (BMW) in broiler chickens, the incidence of leg diseases has gradually increased, which may lead to severe mortality, decreased productivity, and growth restrictions.

Yellow nail syndrome following multiple orthopedic surgeries: a case report
Background Yellow nail syndrome is a rare condition associated with a triad of symptoms: yellow nails, lung lesions, and lymphedema. We report a case of yellow nail syndrome caused by titanium exposure from multiple artificial joint replacements.

AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE EFFECTS OF A SIMULATED EFFUSION IN HEALTHY SUBJECTS ON KNEE KINEMATICS AND LOWER LIMB MUSCLE ACTIVITY DURING A SINGLE LEG DROP LANDING [PDF]
Arthrogenic muscle inhibition (AMI) is defined as an ongoing reflex inhibition of the musculature surrounding a joint following distension or damage to the structures of that joint [Hopkins and Ingersoll, 2000].

Fluctuation theorem for entropy production during effusion of an ideal gas with momentum transfer [PDF]
We derive an exact expression for entropy production during effusion of an ideal gas driven by momentum transfer in addition to energy and particle flux. Following the treatment in Phys. Rev. E Vol. 74, 021117 (2006), we construct a master equation formulation of the process and explicitly verify the thermodynamic fluctuation theorem, thereby directly ...

An Adaptable Dual Species Effusive Source and Zeeman Slower Design Demonstrated with Rb and Li [PDF]
We present a dual-species effusive source and Zeeman slower designed to produce slow atomic beams of two elements with a large mass difference and with very different oven temperature requirements. We demonstrate this design for the case of $^6$Li and $^{85}$Rb and achieve MOT loading rates equivalent to that reported in prior work on dual species (Rb ...
