Internal Energy02:00

Internal Energy

36.7K
The total of all possible kinds of energy present in a substance is called the internal energy (U), sometimes symbolized as E. Suppose a system with initial internal energy, Uinitial, undergoes a change in energy (transfer of work or heat), and the final internal energy of the system is Ufinal. Change in internal energy equals the difference between Ufinal and Uinitial.

Internal Energy

The internal energy of a thermodynamic system is the sum of the kinetic and potential energies of all the molecules or entities in the system. The kinetic energy of an individual molecule includes contributions due to its rotation and vibration, as well as its translational energy. The potential energy is associated only with the interactions between one molecule and the other molecules of the system. Neither the system's location nor its motion is of any consequence as far as the internal...

Internal Receptors01:31

Internal Receptors

74.6K
Many cellular signals are hydrophilic and therefore cannot pass through the plasma membrane. However, small or hydrophobic signaling molecules can cross the hydrophobic core of the plasma membrane and bind to internal, or intracellular, receptors that reside within the cell. Many mammalian steroid hormones use this mechanism of cell signaling, as does nitric oxide (NO) gas.

International System of Units

5.1K
The International System of Units, known as the SI system, is a universally accepted measurement system recognized and used worldwide. The SI system is based on a set of three base units considered absolute, and their values do not change with location. These base units are meters, kilograms, and seconds.
Prefixes are used to define both larger and smaller quantities in the SI system. For example, milli, micro, and nano define smaller quantities, while kilo, mega, and giga are used to define...

Internal and External Forces01:12

Internal and External Forces

16.2K
Newton's first law states that a net external force causes a change in motion. External forces act on an object or system, originating outside of the object or system. In contrast, internal forces originate inside the system of interest and do not lead to any acceleration. In simpler words, internal forces are forces that act on one part of an object and are exerted by another part of the same object. External forces are forces that act on an object due to some other object. Therefore, when...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Sports medicine
  • Biomaterials in surgery

Background:

  • Patellar tendon ruptures are serious injuries requiring effective surgical repair.
  • Augmentation techniques aim to improve the strength and healing of tendon repairs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe and evaluate a surgical technique for patellar tendon ruptures using an internal brace suture tape.
  • To assess the efficacy and outcomes of this augmented repair method.

Main Methods:

  • A surgical technique involving a longitudinal anterior approach and transosseous tunnels in the patella and tibial tuberosity.
  • Utilizes FiberTapes in an "X" and "O" configuration to augment the patellar tendon repair.
  • Postoperative management includes progressive range of motion and weight-bearing exercises.

Main Results:

  • Over 10 years of clinical application show consistently positive results.
  • The technique is effective for both acute and chronic patellar tendon ruptures.
  • Outcomes align with findings reported in current scientific literature.

Conclusions:

  • The internal brace suture tape augmentation is a reliable surgical technique for patellar tendon ruptures.
  • This method offers a viable option for treating various patellar tendon injuries.
  • The technique demonstrates long-term efficacy and supports current orthopedic literature.
