Medium to long-term outcome of thoracoscapular arthrodesis with screw fixation for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Shoulder girdle muscle weakness is the most constant feature of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy and leads to scapular winging. Mechanical fixation of the scapula to the thoracic wall provides a stable fulcrum on which the deltoid ...

Real-time simulation of three-dimensional shoulder girdle and arm dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Electrical stimulation is a promising technology for the restoration of arm function in paralyzed individuals. Control of the paralyzed arm under electrical stimulation, however, is a challenging problem that requires advanced controllers and command ...

Ultrasonographic evaluation of normal scapula in the horse [PDF]

open access: yesBulgarian Journal of Veterinary Medicine, 2018
Scapular fracture is rare in horse, but if happen can cause severe lameness. Due to overlapping of the contralateral scapula and thorax on the scapula, usually radiography is not helpful in its evaluation except in small amount of distal part. This study

Fractures of the Scapula

open access: yesAdvances in Orthopedics, 2012
The scapula plays a critical role in the association between the upper extremity and the axial skeleton. Fractures of the scapula account for 0.4% to 1% of all fractures and have an annual incidence of approximately 10 per 100,000 inhabitants. Scapular fractures typically result from a high-energy blunt-force mechanism and are often associated with ...

The Role of the Scapula

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 1993
The scapular musculature is often neglected in designing a rehabilitation protocol for the shoulder. Weakness of the scapular stabilizers and resultant altered biomechanics could result in: 1) abnormal stresses to the anterior capsular structures of the shoulder, 2) increased possibility of rotator cuff compression, and 3) decreased performance.

GROSS AND MORPHOMETRICAL STUDIES ON SCAPULA OF STUMP-TAILED MACAQUE (MACACA ARCTOIDES) [PDF]

open access: yesExploratory Animal and Medical Research, 2020
The scapula was a flat triangular bone with three borders, three angles and two surfaces. Dorsal border was slightly convex and undulating whereas cranial border was much convex and thinner and ended up distally forming a distinct notch.

Digital dissection of the model organism Xenopus laevis using contrast-enhanced computed tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, is one of the most widely used model organisms in biological research. However, the most recent anatomical description of X. laevis was produced nearly a century ago.

Assessment of shoulder active range of motion in prone versus supine:A reliability and concurrent validity study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: As swimming and surfing are prone dominant sports, it would be more sport specific to assess shoulder active range of motion in this position.

Biomechanical evaluation of the push-up exercise of the upper extremities from various starting points [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The purpose of the present research was to evaluate the push-up exercise of the upper extremities in respect of biomechanics, to compare the muscle function, while changing the position of performance and to examine the torso's inclination during the ...
