Hox patterning of the vertebrate rib cage [PDF]
Development, 2007 Unlike the rest of the axial skeleton, which develops solely from somitic mesoderm, patterning of the rib cage is complicated by its derivation from two distinct tissues. The thoracic skeleton is derived from both somitic mesoderm,which forms the vertebral bodies and ribs, and from lateral plate mesoderm,which forms the sternum.

Rib cage deformities alter respiratory muscle action and chest wall function in patients with severe osteogenesis imperfecta. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is an inherited connective tissue disorder characterized by bone fragility, multiple fractures and significant chest wall deformities.

Applied Sciences, 2020 The delineation of bone structures is a crucial step in Chest X-ray image analysis. In the case of lung field segmentation, the main approach after the localization of bone structures is either their individual analysis or their suppression.

Rib cage mechanics after median sternotomy. [PDF]
Thorax, 1990 A substantial reduction in lung volumes occurs after sternotomy, but the mechanism or mechanisms are unclear. Measurements were made of lung volumes and of chest wall motion with four pairs of magnetometers (two pairs for anteroposterior rib cage, one for lateral rib cage, and one for anteroposterior abdominal dimensions) in 16 men before and one week ...

Personalized 3D reconstruction of the rib cage for clinical assessment of trunk deformities [PDF]
, 2013 Scoliosis is a 3D deformity of the spine and rib cage. Extensive validation of 3D reconstruction methods of the spine from biplanar radiography has already been published.

Quantitative geometric analysis of rib, costal cartilage and sternum from childhood to teenagehood [PDF]
, 2013 Better understanding of the effects of growth on children’s bones and cartilage is necessary for clinical and biomechanical purposes. The aim of this study is to define the 3D geometry of children’s rib cages: including sternum, ribs and costal cartilage.

Association between ribs shape and pulmonary function in patients with Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Journal of Advanced Research, 2020 The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that ribs shape changes in patients with OI are more relevant for respiratory function than thoracic spine shape.

Expert consensus for respiratory physiotherapy management of mechanically ventilated adults with community-acquired pneumonia: A Delphi study [PDF]
, 2018 Rationale and aims: Patients with community‐acquired pneumonia (CAP) are frequently admitted to an intensive care unit. Physiotherapy may be provided to optimize respiratory function; however, there is significant variability in clinical practice and ...
