Rib deformity in scoliosis [PDF]
Rib deformity in scoliosis is of interest because it may help in the diagnosis, and also, in some pronounced cases, it may need correction by costoplasty. There are, however, debates about its use in diagnosis, because some authors think that rib deformity is not closely related to either the magnitude or the extent of rotation of the curve.

Abstract Purpose Four‐dimensional cone‐beam CT (4D CBCT) incorporates oversampling of 3D data to reconstruct multi‐phase CBCT data sets representing distinct phases of the breathing cycle based on a diaphragmatic correlate of respiratory motion. Motion artifacts and blurring can be reduced relative to three‐dimensional cone‐beam (3D CBCT), allowing ...

Influence of Dystrophin Isoform Deficiency on Motor Development in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
ABSTRACT Objective In Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), lack of the shorter dystrophin isoforms Dp140 and Dp71 is associated with increased central nervous system (CNS) involvement. We aimed to investigate how CNS involvement affects motor development in young DMD boys.

Understanding Mechanisms of Whole Brain and Regional Grey Matter Atrophy in Children With MOGAD
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the mechanisms driving whole brain and regional grey matter (GM) volume changes along with their clinical correlates in paediatric myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody (MOG‐Ab)–associated disease (MOGAD). Methods One‐hundred‐nine paediatric MOGAD patients from two UK centres underwent MRI at attack nadir and ...

Radiographic characteristics of asthma
Objectives: A novel and interesting observation is that ribs go less sloped in asthma patients′ radiograph than non-asthmatics people. The aim of this study was to investigate whether a smaller horizontal curve of the ribs is a special trait on chest ...
