Mechanical stress

2015
This chapter discusses mechanical stressors that are believed to be associated with work-related musculoskeletal disorders. It starts with an introduction to work-related musculoskeletal disorders (particularly those with high incidences in workplaces, such as disorders of low back, neck/shoulder, hand/wrist, elbow, and knee) in high-risk industries ...

Mechanisms of Stress (Takotsubo) Cardiomyopathy

Heart Failure Clinics, 2013
Stress cardiomyopathy is a form of reversible systolic dysfunction of the mid and apical left ventricle with pathologic changes of the electrocardiogram in the absence of an obstructive coronary artery disease. The prevalence of stress cardiomyopathy among patients with symptoms suggestive of myocardial infarction is 0.7% to 2.5%, and it is found ...

Mechanisms of stress (Takotsubo) cardiomyopathy

Nature Reviews Cardiology, 2010
Stress cardiomyopathy, also referred to as Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, transient apical ballooning or broken heart syndrome, is a disorder associated with transient left ventricular dysfunction. Symptoms include acute chest pain and dyspnea accompanied by electrocardiographic changes, such as ST-segment elevation and T-wave inversions, minimal elevation ...

Metabolic Mechanisms of Stress Hyperglycemia

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 2006
Stress hyperglycemia has gained the attention of virtually every physician who encounters critically ill patients, with the emergence of clinical data supporting tight glycemic control and intensive insulinization for optimal outcome. In order to effectively manage stress hyperglycemia, newer theories of critical illness and the interactions of the ...

Mechanical stress induced whiskers

2009 15th International Symposium for Design and Technology of Electronics Packages (SIITME), 2009
Electroplated tin surfaces grow whiskers easily and mechanical loads tend to accelerate this. Our aim was to define how the different kinds of mechanical loads induce the growth of tin whiskers. We have applied 3 types of mechanical loads on component leads covered by either electroplated tin or electroplated tin with silver underlayer.

Mechanics of Stresses

2013
We shall continue now the theoretical study of the preceding chapter, by putting in evidence the stresses which arise because of the deformation of a solid body; both vector and tensor aspects of the stress are thus emphasized.

Signal Transduction and Mechanical Stress

Science's STKE, 2004
Bone undergoes a constant process of remodeling in which mass is retained or lost in response to the relative activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Weight-bearing exercise—which is critical for retaining skeletal integrity—promotes osteoblast function, whereas a lack of mechanical stimulation, as seen during spaceflight or prolonged bed rest, can ...

Mechanics of Elastic Stress Transfer

2016
At the beginning of the loading regime—when the DFRC is subjected to low applied loads—the response of the DFRC to the applied load is regulated by the elastic stress transfer mechanism. As the load increases, eventually the DFRC undergoes a transition from the elastic stress transfer stage to the plastic stress transfer stage.

Mechanical Stress and Bone

2011
Bone has been known to adapt to mechanical stress (Amin 2010; Beier and Loeser 2010; Currey 2010; Temiyasathit and Jacobs 2010). The presence of mechanical stress increases bone mass and the absence of mechanical stress reduces bone mass. Bending of weight-bearing long bone increases pressure on the concave side and decreases it on the convex side ...
