In five normal men, we divided the rib cage into lung-apposed [pulmonary rib cage (RCp)] and diaphragm-apposed [abdominal rib cage (RCab)] compartments and calculated their absolute cross-sectional areas (Arc,p and Arc,ab) by anteroposterior and lateral dimensions measured by magnetometry.

Abstract The relaxed rib cage has been squeezed along the lateral diameter at different lung volumes with closed airways. The force applied, the decrease of the lateral diameter, the increase of the dorsoventral one, the esophageal and gastric pressures have been measured.

Rib cage deformities in scoliosis: Spine morphology, rib cage stiffness, and tomography imaging
Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1993AbstractA computer‐implemented biomechanical model of a thoracolumbar spine and deformable rib cage was used to investigate the influence of spine morphology and rib cage stiffness properties on the rib cage deformities that arise from scoliosis and to study the relationship of actual rib distortions with those seen on computed tomography (CT) scans ...

Rib cage asymmetry in idiopathic scoliosis
Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1989AbstractSeventy‐one patients attending a scoliosis clinic and 10 control subjects were studied by a stereoradiographic three‐dimensional reconstruction of the spine and rib cage. The symmetry of each rib pair (at each anatomic level) was described by measurements of rib arc length, chord length, enclosed area, maximum curvature, and frontal and lateral

The rib cage and thoracic spine are related intimately in viscerosomatic and somatoviscero responses of the body. The thoracic spine and rib cage area protects the primary vital organs for cardiopulmonary function, as well as highly integrating and protecting the sympathetic nervous system.

Rib cage shape and motion in microgravity
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1992We studied the effect of microgravity (0 Gz) on the anteroposterior diameters of the upper (URC-AP) and lower (LRC-AP) rib cage, the transverse diameter of the lower rib cage (LRC-TR), and the xiphipubic distance and on the electromyographic (EMG) activity of the scalene and parasternal intercostal muscles in five normal subjects breathing quietly in ...

Rib cage deformation during static inspiratory efforts
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1979Patterns of rib cage (RC) deformation were studied in six normal subjects during moderate static inspiratory efforts such that esophageal pressure (Pes) as an index of transthoracic pressure fell to between -30 and -60 cmH2O during each maneuver. At lung volumes below 50% inspiratory capacity (IC), static inspiratory efforts deformed RC to a more ...

Readmission Rates and Associated Factors Following Rib Cage Injury.
Journal of Trauma and Acute Care Surgery, 2019BACKGROUND There remains a lack of knowledge about readmission characteristics after sustaining rib fractures. We aimed to determine rates, characteristics, and predictive/protective factors associated with unexpected reevaluation and readmission after ...

Kinetics and Kinematics of Rib Cage
2021The biomechanics of rib cage is a very important segment as any alteration in the mechanics could lead to associated ventilatory dysfunction within the chest wall. In order to maintain proper ventilation, the mobility/kinematics of the rib cage is most important along with muscles that are responsible for driving ventilation.
