Decreased pulse rate01:14

Decreased pulse rate

894
Bradycardia is a medical condition in which the heart rate is slower than normal. It occurs when the heart's natural pacemaker, the sinus node, generates slower electrical impulses than the standard rhythm. In adults, bradycardia is diagnosed when the pulse rate falls below 60 beats per minute, indicating a deviation from the normal heart rate range.
There are specific risk factors that can elevate the likelihood of developing bradycardia. Advanced age is a significant factor, with...

Decreasing Function01:27

Decreasing Function

267
A decreasing function describes a relationship where the output consistently declines as the input increases. This means that for any two input values, if one is greater than the other, the corresponding output is smaller. Mathematically, a function f is decreasing on an interval I if for every x1 < x2​ in I, f (x1) > f (x2). This type of behavior is visually identified on a graph that slopes downward from left to right.The nature of a function can be analyzed by calculating...

Decreased Body Temperature01:29

Decreased Body Temperature

1.0K
A decreased body temperature can occur in patients with hypothermia and frostbite. Heat loss with extended cold exposure overpowers the body's ability to create heat, resulting in hypothermia. Core temperature readings help classify hypothermia. Mild hypothermia is temperatures between 32 °C (89.6 °F) and 35°C (95 °F) and is caused by impaired thermoregulation. Moderate hypothermia is temperatures between 28 C (82.4 °F) and 32 °C (89.6 °F) caused by...

Accessory Structures of the Skin: Nails

3.3K
Nails are one of the important accessory structures of the skin. They are hard, protective structures that cover the dorsal surface of the distal phalanges of fingers and toes. Nails are composed of specialized keratinized cells and serve various functions, including protection, sensation, and manual dexterity.
The main components of a nail include the following.
Nail Plate: The nail plate is the visible portion of the nail that extends beyond the fingertips or toes. It is a hard, translucent...

What is Conservation Biology?

24.3K
Conservation biology is a scientific field that focuses on the preservation of biodiversity in order to protect ecosystems while meeting the needs of the human population. Humans require properly functioning ecosystems to maintain our supply of natural resources, including food, medicines, and building materials.

Reaction Rate02:53

Reaction Rate

62.7K
The rate of reaction is the change in the amount of a reactant or product per unit time. Reaction rates are therefore determined by measuring the time dependence of some property that can be related to reactant or product amounts. Rates of reactions that consume or produce gaseous substances, for example, are conveniently determined by measuring changes in volume or pressure.
The mathematical representation of the change in the concentration of reactants and products, over time, is the rate...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Extramedullary plate fixation and intramedullary nailing show similar outcomes for extremity sarcoma reconstruction. Intramedullary nailing may offer longer service life for biological reconstruction after sarcoma resection.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Oncology
  • Surgical Reconstruction
  • Sarcoma Treatment

Background:

  • Extremity sarcomas require complex surgical management, often involving tumor resection and subsequent reconstruction.
  • Biological reconstruction aims to restore function and minimize complications after sarcoma removal.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the outcomes of extramedullary plate fixation versus intramedullary nailing for biological reconstruction in patients with extremity sarcoma.
  • To evaluate union rates, mechanical complications, survival, and functional outcomes between the two fixation methods.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 58 patients with extremity sarcomas undergoing biological reconstruction between November 2003 and November 2015.
  • Patients were divided into two groups: plate fixation (n=40) and intramedullary nailing (IM group, n=18).
  • Analysis included outcomes, survival, local recurrence, function, and complications with a mean follow-up of 90.8 months.

Main Results:

  • No significant difference in overall prognosis or local recurrence rates between plate fixation and IM nailing.
  • Plate fixation showed a shorter time to diaphysis union (11.6 months) compared to IM nailing (14.7 months).
  • IM nailing tended towards a longer time to mechanical complications (38.1 months) versus plate fixation (15.7 months).

Conclusions:

  • Intramedullary nailing does not improve union rates or reduce mechanical complications compared to plate fixation in extremity sarcoma reconstruction.
  • Intramedullary nailing may offer potential advantages regarding the service life of biological reconstruction after extremity sarcoma resection.
