Respiratory function of the rib cage muscles [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 1993
Elevation of the ribs and expansion of the rib cage result from the co-ordinated action of the rib cage muscles. We wished to review the action and interaction of the rib cage muscles during ventilation. The parasternal intercostal muscles appear to play a predominant role during quiet breathing, both in humans and in anaesthetized dogs. In humans, the

What are the kinematic characteristics of the world champion couple in competitive ballroom dance during the waltz's spin movement?

Frontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2022
To evaluate competitive ballroom dancing, one of the official events of the World Games, spin movements used by advanced dancers who ranked high in actual competition may be employed.

Breathing and Singing: Objective Characterization of Breathing Patterns in Classical Singers. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Singing involves distinct respiratory kinematics (i.e. movements of rib cage and abdomen) to quiet breathing because of different demands on the respiratory system.

Lung Field Segmentation in Chest X-rays: A Deformation-Tolerant Procedure Based on the Approximation of Rib Cage Seed Points

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.

Brachial Plexus Injury Associated with Median Sternotomy during Cardiac Surgery: Three Cases of C8 Radiculopathy Due to the Fracture of the First Rib

Diagnostics, 2021
In cardiac surgery, median sternotomy is often necessary during certain surgical processes and it can cause the rare complication of brachial plexus injury.
