Reverse engineering applied to a lumbar vertebra [PDF]

, 2007
Bone studies can be made in vivo or in vitro. However, disadvantages of both traditional techniques call for a compromise between the two. Reverse engineering allows in vitro bone samples to be simulated and analysed in a virtual in vivo environment thus

Expanding the Clinical Spectrum of Cousin Syndrome: A Novel Biallelic Missense Variant in TBX15 Causing a Milder Phenotype

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cousin syndrome is a rare skeletal dysplasia characterized by distinctive facial features, humeroradial synostosis, and hypoplasia of the ilia and scapula. Since the original description of the phenotype in two cases by Cousin in 1982, only three additional cases have been published.

Experimentally based numerical models and numerical simulation with parameter identification of human lumbar FSUs in traction [PDF]

, 2004
Numerical simulation of the behaviour of human lumbar spine segments, moreover, parameter-identification of the component organs of human lumbar FSUs are presented in traction therapies, by using FEM analysis. First, a simple 2D model, than a refined 2D

Sacroiliac Joint Involvement: An Underreported Complication of NF1

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT NF1‐related bone dysplasia in children and young adults with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) involving the sacroiliac joint has been rarely described. We report four participants who underwent whole‐body magnetic resonance imaging (WB‐MRI) as part of a longitudinal imaging and plexiform neurofibroma (PN) biomarker study (NCT05238909) at Ann ...

The Head Circumference Height Index (HCH‐I) to Quantify Relative Macrocephaly and Aid Identification of Hypochondroplasia in Children

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypochondroplasia (HCH) is a rare skeletal dysplasia caused by pathogenic variants in the FGFR3 gene. We hypothesized that the relative disproportion between head circumference and height in HCH might be diagnostically informative and generated a simple index of head‐stature disproportion to help pediatricians diagnose HCH.

Comparison of thoracic and lumbar erector spinae muscle activation before and after a golf practice session [PDF]

, 2017
Lower back pain is commonly associated with golfers. The study aimed: to determine whether thoracic- and lumbar-erector-spinae muscle display signs of muscular fatigue after completing a golf practice session, and to examine the effect of the completed ...

A Confirmatory Case of Severe Spondylocostal Dysostosis Caused by Biallelic Loss‐of‐Function of DMRT2

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spondylocostal dysostosis (SCDO) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by abnormal development of the axial skeleton, resulting in malformations of the vertebrae and ribs that often impair lung development and lead to significant respiratory morbidity.
