Dysphagia Precipitated by Cervical Lordosis in the Aged [PDF]
Ear, Nose & Throat Journal, 2020 A lordotic curve of the cervical spine in the aged is a physiological curvature of the cervical spine. The swallowing disorder precipitated by lordosis of the cervical spine in the aged, the swallowing function and intervention were reported on. An 86-year-old woman complained of swallowing difficulty for a few months.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...

The Spine: A Strong, Stable, and Flexible Structure with Biomimetics Potential
Biomimetics, 2019 From its first appearance in early vertebrates, the spine evolved the function of protecting the spinal cord, avoiding excessive straining during body motion.

The fossil record stays silent: Confusions and conundrums for hominin pelvis evolution
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The evolution of the hominin pelvis is commonly modeled as a series of stages driven largely by the requirements of bipedal locomotion, reproduction, thermoregulation, and pelvic floor muscular support. These patterns are complicated by variation in canal dimensions in relationship with different changes in overall pelvic breadths. To quantify

Lumbar lordosis of extinct hominins
American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2011 AbstractThe lordotic curvature of the lumbar spine (lumbar lordosis) in humans is a critical component in the ability to achieve upright posture and bipedal gait. Only general estimates of the lordotic angle (LA) of extinct hominins are currently available, most of which are based on the wedging of the vertebral bodies.

Human evolution and the obstetrical dilemma: The pelvic floor hypothesis
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Human childbirth is mechanically difficult because a large‐headed, broad‐shouldered fetus must pass through a comparatively narrow, twisted bony birth canal. Traditional explanations of this “obstetrical dilemma” emphasize the role of bipedal locomotion in inhibiting the evolution of a wider, more spacious pelvis.

Diagnosis of Spinal Column Abnormalities by Image processing of Reflective Markers Set on Spinus Process [PDF]
Sport Sciences and Health Research, 2010 The aim of the present study was to introduce a non-invasive method (image processing) to measure lumbar lordosis and thoracic kyphosis. The advantages of this method are fast measurement and no direct contact with the subjects. For this purpose, 40 male

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.This study investigated how radiographers assess radiographic image quality using the think‐aloud technique. It reveals that image quality assessment is shaped by both technical standards and subjective, contextual factors, including patient condition and interprofessional dynamics. This highlights the importance of balancing standardised criteria with
