Muscles of the Shoulder01:23

Muscles of the Shoulder

9.6K
The muscles surrounding the shoulder girdle, including the clavicle and scapula, primarily stabilize the scapula. This stable base allows other muscles to move the humerus effectively. Scapular movements often mirror those of the humerus and extend its range of motion. For instance, raising the arm above the head would not be feasible without simultaneous upward rotation of the scapula.

Muscles of the Anterior Neck01:26

Muscles of the Anterior Neck

5.4K
The anterior neck muscles are the group of muscles covering the front part of the neck. These muscles are classified into three subgroups. The first one is the superficial muscles, the most visible muscles in the front of the neck. It includes the platysma and sternocleidomastoid. The second group is the suprahyoid muscles, located above the hyoid bone. This group comprises the digastric, mylohyoid, geniohyoid, and stylohyoid. Lastly, the infrahyoid muscles are found below the hyoid bone and...

Muscles that Move the Head01:19

Muscles that Move the Head

6.7K
The muscles that move the head are a dynamic and complex group of structures that work together to facilitate a wide range of head movements, including rotation, flexion, extension, and lateral bending.
The bilateral sternocleidomastoid, or SCM, and the suprahyoid and infrahyoid muscles are significant head flexors. The SCM muscles originate at the sternum and clavicle and attach to the mastoid process of the temporal bone. The SCM contracts bilaterally to bend the head forward, whereas...

Fatigue01:21

Fatigue

978
Fatigue occurs when materials rupture under repeated or fluctuating loads, even at stress levels far below their static breaking strength. It typically results in brittle failure, even for ductile materials. It is a critical consideration in designing machines and structural components subjected to repetitive or varying loads. The nature of these loadings can range from fluctuating loads like unbalanced pump impellers causing vibrations to repeatedly bending a thin steel rod wire back and forth...

Stresses under Combined Loadings01:23

Stresses under Combined Loadings

523
When analyzing a bent tube with a circular cross-section subjected to multiple forces, it is crucial to determine the stress distribution in order to maintain structural integrity under varied load conditions.
The process begins by slicing the tube at critical points and analyzing the internal forces and stress components at these sections, focusing on the centroid. Normal stresses, generated by axial forces and bending moments, are either compressive or tensile and vary across the section from...

Stress on an Oblique Plane01:16

Stress on an Oblique Plane

1.2K
Understanding stress on an oblique plane under axial loading is pivotal in material mechanics. This analysis offers insight into a material's durability and strength, which is crucial for civil engineering and structural design. Axial loading refers to force application along the material's central axis, causing compression or elongation and leading to normal stress. Normal stress occurs when a force acts perpendicularly to the material's area, resulting in compressive or tensile...

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Orthopedics
    • Sports Medicine
    • Sports Injury

    Background:

    • Little League shoulder is a common overuse injury affecting young athletes participating in overhead activities.
    • It specifically impacts the proximal humeral physis, the growth plate in the upper arm bone.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To summarize the key aspects of Little League shoulder, including its cause, diagnosis, and treatment.
    • To highlight the pathognomonic radiographic finding associated with this condition.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of clinical presentation and common symptoms in young pitchers and swimmers.
    • Emphasis on physical examination findings, often limited.
    • Identification of characteristic radiographic evidence: widening of the proximal humeral physis.

    Main Results:

    • Little League shoulder results from repetitive overhead motion, not acute trauma.
    • The hallmark diagnostic sign is widening of the proximal humeral physis on imaging.
    • Pain is typically exacerbated by continued athletic activity.

    Conclusions:

    • Little League shoulder is an overuse injury of the proximal humeral physis in young overhead athletes.
    • Radiographic widening of the physis is the definitive diagnostic finding.
    • Rest is the cornerstone of effective treatment for this condition.
