The Thyroid Gland01:23

The Thyroid Gland

7.7K
The thyroid gland is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located in the neck and covers the anterior surface of the trachea. The gland has two lateral lobes connected by a thin tissue mass called the isthmus. Internally, each lobe comprises many small spherical structures known as thyroid follicles, surrounded by a network of blood vessels.
The follicles have a central cavity lined by simple cuboidal to squamous epithelial cells called follicular cells. These cells produce the glycoprotein...

Design Consideration01:22

Design Consideration

583
Designing a structure involves a series of considerations, primarily the material's ultimate strength, calculated through tests that measure changes under increased force until the material reaches its breaking point or limit. The ultimate load, where the material breaks, is divided by its original cross-sectional area, resulting in the ultimate normal stress or strength. The ultimate shearing stress is another significant factor taken into account.
The factor of safety is another key...

Anatomical Positions01:11

Anatomical Positions

20.5K
In anatomy, several standard anatomical positions are used as references for describing the position and orientation of different body parts. These positions help provide a common frame of reference when discussing anatomical structures. The anatomical position is the standard reference point for describing the body's position and orientation. In this position:
The body is upright, facing forward, and standing erect.
The feet are parallel and flat on the floor.
The arms are hanging by the...

Anatomical Terminology01:20

Anatomical Terminology

27.6K
Knowledge of anatomy is essential to understand human biology and medicine. Anatomists and health care professionals use standard terminology to describe the human body with more precision and no ambiguity. Anatomical terms have mostly Greek and Latin-derived roots. Because these languages are rarely used in conversation, the meaning of words remains the same. Each term is made up of a root in between the prefixes and suffixes. The root of a term often refers to an organ, tissue, or condition,...

Anatomical Movements00:51

Anatomical Movements

16.2K
Anatomical movements refer to the various actions or motions that can be performed by the body's joints and muscles. These movements are described using specific terms to provide a standardized way of discussing and understanding the range of motion at different joints.
Here are some common anatomical movements:
Flexion and extension motions are in the sagittal (anterior–posterior) plane of motion. These movements take place at the shoulder, hip, elbow, knee, wrist,...

Tensile Strength Considerations of Concrete01:16

Tensile Strength Considerations of Concrete

558
Considering the tensile strength of concrete involves recognizing that the theoretical strength of cement paste can be up to a thousand times higher than what is observed in practical applications. This significant discrepancy is largely attributed to the presence of microscopic cracks within the concrete. These cracks tend to amplify stress at their tips when a load is applied, a phenomenon explained by Griffith's theory of brittle fracture.
The dimensions and shape of a concrete specimen...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Endocrinology
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Thyroid eye disease (TED) is an autoimmune condition affecting the tissues around the eye.
  • Clinical manifestations of TED are diverse and linked to eyelid and orbital anatomy.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review and summarize clinical findings in TED.
  • To correlate these findings with the unique anatomical structures of the eyelids and orbit.

Main Methods:

  • PubMed search for studies on eyelid/orbital anatomy and TED clinical findings.
  • Review and synthesis of relevant literature.

Main Results:

  • TED affects both eyelids (retraction, edema, fat prolapse) and orbits (inflammation, fibrosis).
  • Findings stem from interactions between unique eyelid/orbital anatomy and immune processes.
  • Specific eyelid structures include Müller muscle and levator palpebrae superioris.

Conclusions:

  • Eyelid findings in TED are linked to Müller muscle, levator muscle, and conjunctival ligaments.
  • Orbital changes in Graves' disease involve extraocular muscles, orbital walls, sinuses, and orbital fat response.
