Magnetic resonance imaging of abnormal lumbar discs in 115 symptomatic patients (184 discs) and 63 symptom-free controls (78 have been compared. All were proven to discogneic pain at discography. Discs classified into patterns 1–6 reflecting the progressive changes nuclear degeneration as prevlously described. In patient, more degenerate disc likely it was responsible for (P < 0.001), but there no statistically significant difference distribution signal between two groups studied. A small...
The synthesis, structural, and photophysical properties of a novel family neutral fac-[Re(N∧N)(CO)3(L)] complexes, where N∧N is either 2,2′-bipyridine or 1,10-phenanthroline L para functionalized 5-aryltetrazolate [namely, 5-phenyltetrazolate (Tph−), 4-(tetrazolate-5-yl)benzaldehyde (Tbdz−), 5-(4-acetylphenyl)tetrazolate (Tacy−), methyl 4-(tetrazolate-5-yl)benzoate (Tmeb−)] are reported. complexes were prepared by direct addition the corresponding tetrazolate anion to acetonitrile solvated...
Neutral Re(<sc>i</sc>) tetrazolato complexes exhibit labeling of lipid droplets with high specificity.
Roentgenographic data on the maturing epiphysis of medial epicondyle humerus are prone to misinterpretation for following reasons. First, fractures may not be associated with joint effusion or metaphyseal avulsion fragments. Second, in center ossification, which lies posteromedial distal end and is last elbow epiphyses unite humerus, quite distant from humeral metaphysis, differentiation this normal characteristic minimum necessary. Also, multicentric although uncommon, will give a...
Abstract Reaction of GdCl 3 (H 2 O) 6 and 1,3‐bis(pyridin‐4‐yl)propane‐1,3‐dione in methanol with an excess triethylamine produced a monodimensional polymeric chain [Gd( p ‐dppd ) O)] ∞ , whereas treatment HoCl 1,3‐bis(pyridin‐2‐yl)propane‐1,3‐dione yielded trinuclear cluster [Ho ( o (μ ‐OH) 4 Cl ]Cl . The compounds were characterised by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy magnetism, their structures investigated X‐ray crystallography. 8.20‐μ B magnetic‐moment value the between 300 20 K,...
Seventy thoracolumbar spines from cadavers of individuals killed in motor vehicle accidents were examined pathologically and radiologically, particularly for the occurrence acute Schmorl's nodes.To document whether nodes occur acutely as a result trauma.Theories proposed to explain pathogenesis include developmental, degenerative, traumatic, disease influences. Few studies show direct causal relation between traumatic episode node formation.Thoracolumbar removed at autopsy, underwent...
The purpose of our study was to describe the sonographic appearance lesser metatarsal plantar plates in cadavers and correlate these findings with MRI histology.Six soft-embalmed cadaveric feet (74-92 years old; two male, one female) were imaged sonography MRI. Tear dimensions plate recorded long short axes. Orthopedic surgeons directly inspected before removing samples for histologic correlation. One young fresh cadaver assessment.The normal on a slightly echoic, homogeneous, curved...
Single-contrast arthrography was performed in six infants who had an injury to the elbow because exact nature of uncertain from interpretation plain radiographs and clinical findings. A correct diagnosis made all patients, it significantly altered treatment five. Four lesions were a Salter-Harris Type-I fracture two Type-II fracture. Three patients closed reduction, required no one open reduction. Child abuse confirmed, suspected another two.
Two synthetic approaches to the formation of bismuth(III) carboxylates have been explored and compared. Ph3Bi was reacted with a series carboxylic acids (RCO2H) varying pKa functionality (R = PhCHCH, o-MeOC6H4, m-MeOC6H4, o-H2NC6H,, o-O2NC6H4, p-O2NC6H4, 2-(C5H4N)) under reflux conditions in toluene solvent-free. The thermochemical profiles solvent-free reactions were also studied by DSC-TGA. All produced tri-substituted bismuth comparable yields purity exceptions picolinic acid...
The capitellum is the first epiphyseal center of elbow to ossify. Its normal position easily subject misinterpretation as a separation fracture because: (1) ossification for situated anteriorly, (2) it often tilted downward during development, and (3) its epiphysis tends be wider posteriorly than anteriorly. frequently fuses with trochlea lateral epicondyle before uniting humerus. We reviewed anatomical configuration elbow. Some useful methods evaluating normally minimally displaced distal...
Addition of water to the product formed when LaCl3 and 1H-5-(2-pyridyl)tetrazole (LH) were treated with an excess triethylamine in ethanol, resulted reversible formation a hydrogel, which further EtOH-iPrOH produced crystals [LaL3(H2O)3].(H2O)4, as determined by X-ray crystallography.
The maturing olecranon of the ulna is readily prone to misinterpretation because its normal radiographic characteristics may closely resemble those fractures, for following reasons: (1) just prior ossification epiphysis, a straight sclerotic edge develops in associated metaphysis on proximal part ulna; (2) begins two or more centers that commonly fuse with each other before fusing parent bone and be separated widely from early stages; (3) physis frequently migrates distally into joint...
The kicking action predominantly used in Australian Rules football is considered to be responsible for many lower limb injuries. aim of this study was describe a non-invasive method identifying the thigh muscles involved an football, using MRI. Both upper thighs 10 recreational footballers were examined 1.5-T General Electric MRI scanner before and immediately after carrying out set exercise protocol. signal intensity (SI) changes 14 individual investigated standardized region interest...
Abstract Introduction: Awareness of the risk spinal-cord damage in moving an unconscious person with a suspected neck injury into “lateral recovery position,” coupled even greater inadequate airway management if is not moved, has resulted suggested modification to lateral position for use this circumstance. Hypothesis: It proposed that reduces movement neck. In modification, one patient's arms raised above head (in full abduction) support and The called “HAINES modified position.” HAINES...
