Fixation and Sectioning01:03

Fixation and Sectioning

4.7K
Two basic types of preparation are used to visualize specimens with a light microscope: wet mounts and fixed specimens.
The simplest type of preparation is the wet mount, in which the specimen is placed in a drop of liquid on the slide. A liquid specimen can be directly deposited on the slide using a dropper. Solid specimens, such as skin scraping, can be placed on the slide before adding a drop of liquid to prepare the wet mount. Sometimes the liquid is simply water, but stains are often added...

Deformation in a Circular Shaft01:10

Deformation in a Circular Shaft

418
One of the distinctive characteristics of circular shafts is their ability to maintain their cross-sectional integrity under torsion. In other words, each cross-section continues to exist as a flat, unaltered entity, simply rotating like a solid, rigid slab. To understand the distribution of shearing stress within such a shaft, consider a cylindrical section inside this circular shaft. This section has a length of L and a radius of R, with one end fixed. The radius of the cylindrical section is...

Rotational Motion about a Fixed Axis01:26

Rotational Motion about a Fixed Axis

657
A rigid body's rotation around a fixed axis makes every point within it trace a circular path around a specific line or point. The term given to this type of spinning is defined by the angular position, symbolized by the angle θ. This angle is gauged from a static reference line to the revolving object. From this angular position, any variation is referred to as angular displacement, denoted by dθ. The extent of this displacement can be calculated in degrees, radians, or...

Fascicle Arrangement in Skeletal Muscles01:25

Fascicle Arrangement in Skeletal Muscles

2.3K
Fascicles are bundles of muscle fibers in a skeletal muscle. Muscle fascicle arrangement is directly associated with the power and range of motion of various muscles. The configuration of these fascicles can vary, leading to different functional outcomes.
The four primary types of muscle based on fascicle arrangement are:

Mechanism of Ciliary Motion01:05

Mechanism of Ciliary Motion

3.8K
The ciliary structures were first seen in 1647 by Antonie Leeuwenhoek while observing the protozoans. In lower organisms, these appendages are responsible for cell movement, while in higher organisms, these appendages help in the movement of the extracellular fluids within the body cavities.
The cilia are made up of microtubules in a 9+2 arrangement, with nine microtubule doublet ring bundles, surrounding a pair of central singlet microtubule bundles. The doublet microtubule bundles are...

Chirality02:25

Chirality

24.9K
Chirality is a term that describes the lack of mirror symmetry in an object. In other words, chiral objects cannot be superposed on their mirror images. For example, our feet are chiral, as the mirror image of the left foot, the right foot, cannot be superposed on the left foot.
Chiral objects exhibit a sense of handedness when they interact with another chiral object. For example, our left foot can only fit in the left shoe and not in the right shoe. Achiral objects — objects that have...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Limb reconstruction
  • Foot and ankle reconstruction

Background:

  • Charcot foot and ankle deformities present complex challenges in treatment.
  • Effective management requires addressing bone deformities, ulcers, and soft tissue compromise.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the utility of static circular fixation in managing Charcot foot and ankle deformities.
  • To explore the applications of circular fixators as both primary and secondary devices.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing static circular fixation for dynamic adjustments and off-loading.
  • Employing circular fixators in primary scenarios for osteomyelitis or bone defects.
  • Using circular fixators as secondary devices to protect internal fixation or compromised soft tissues.

Main Results:

  • Circular fixators offer versatility for dynamic adjustments and off-loading of compromised tissues.
  • The device is effective as a primary fixation for osteomyelitis and bone lengthening.
  • It serves as a valuable secondary fixation to protect internal hardware or soft tissue.

Conclusions:

  • Static circular fixation is a highly adaptable and effective tool for complex Charcot foot and ankle conditions.
  • Its application spans primary management of infection/defects and secondary protection of surgical repairs.
