Incorporating Clinical Examination Skills Into a Preclinical Anatomy Course: A Method for Facilitating Engagement and Interest

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Anatomy instruction is enhanced when students are engaged and interested in course material, and the relevance of the subject matter to their academic success and professional careers is emphasized. We developed a learning activity for a pre‐clinical anatomy course using the clinical skills of inspection and palpation of a cadaver donor to ...

Rotator cuff injury: still a clinical controversy? [PDF]

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2009
The rotator cuff mechanism is the primary stabiliser of the gleno-humeral joint and is vulnerable to considerable morbidity because of its anatomy and function. Both intrinsic and extrinsic factors are responsible for rotator cuff pathology, which is a disease spectrum ranging from inflammation to full thickness tears.

Advances in Stem Cell Therapies for Rotator Cuff Injuries

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Rotator cuff injury is a common upper extremity musculoskeletal disease that may lead to persistent pain and functional impairment. Despite the clinical outcomes of the surgical procedures being satisfactory, the repair of the rotator cuff remains problematic, such as through failure of healing, adhesion formation, and fatty infiltration.

Shoulder ultrasonography performed by orthopedic surgeons increases efficiency in diagnosis of rotator cuff tears

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2017
Background Rotator cuff tears are very common and their incidence increases with age. Shoulder ultrasonography has recently gained popularity in detecting rotator cuff tears because of its efficiency, cost-effectiveness, time-saving, and real-time nature

Efficacy of Neuromuscular Ultrasound in Diagnosing and Treating a Mammogram‐Induced Brachial Plexus Injury—A Case Report

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of cutaneous nerve entrapment syndromes, often overlooked and misdiagnosed, especially without a clear inciting injury. Through the utilization of musculoskeletal ultrasound, peripheral neuropathies can be diagnosed and treated successfully. ABSTRACT A 40‐year‐old woman presented with chronic left anterior

New Mechanics of Spinal Injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The prediction and prevention of spinal injury is an important aspect of preventive health science. The spine, or vertebral column, represents a chain of 26 movable vertebral bodies, joint together by transversal viscoelastic intervertebral discs and longitudinal elastic tendons. This paper proposes a new locally-coupled loading-rate hypothesis}, which

Improved 2D Keypoint Detection in Out-of-Balance and Fall Situations -- combining input rotations and a kinematic model [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Injury analysis may be one of the most beneficial applications of deep learning based human pose estimation. To facilitate further research on this topic, we provide an injury specific 2D dataset for alpine skiing, covering in total 533 images. We further propose a post processing routine, that combines rotational information with a simple kinematic ...
