Work Done Over an Inclined Plane01:11

Work Done Over an Inclined Plane

4.0K
The center-of-mass framework helps to easily describe the work done on rigid bodies. Since the internal forces in a rigid body do no work, they can be ignored, and the external forces can be considered in the work-energy theorem.
The work done by gravity to move a rigid body, or the work done by an opposing force to move a rigid body against gravity, can be calculated using the center-of-mass framework. It is the line integral of the force of gravity over the path, considered positive if...

Body Planes01:06

Body Planes

32.4K
Body planes in anatomy are imaginary flat surfaces used as reference points to divide the body into sections for anatomical study. These planes are essential for understanding the orientation, relationships, and spatial organization of anatomical structures.
The sagittal plane is the plane that divides the body or an organ vertically into right and left sides. If this vertical plane runs directly down the middle of the body resulting in equal division, it is called the midsagittal or median...

Coordinate Plane01:21

Coordinate Plane

365
The Cartesian coordinate plane is a fundamental structure in mathematics that enables the visualization of relationships between numerical values in two dimensions. It is formed by two intersecting number lines: a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. These axes meet at the origin, the point where both values are zero. Their intersection divides the plane into four quadrants labeled in a counterclockwise direction starting from the upper right.An ordered pair of numbers represents every...

Plane Electromagnetic Waves I01:30

Plane Electromagnetic Waves I

5.1K
The existence of combined electric and magnetic fields that propagate through space as electromagnetic (EM) waves is the most significant prediction of Maxwell's equations. As Maxwell's equations hold in free space, the predicted electromagnetic waves do not require a medium for their propagation. An EM wave comprises an electric field, defined as the force per charge on a stationary charge, and a magnetic field, which is the force per charge on a moving charge.
The EM field is assumed to be a...

Plane Electromagnetic Waves II

4.1K
Consider a plane wavefront traveling in position x-direction with a constant speed. This wavefront can be utilized to obtain the relationship between electric and magnetic fields with the help of Faraday's law.

Transformation of Plane Stress01:18

Transformation of Plane Stress

753
Studying stress transformation is essential in understanding how stress components within a material, like a cube under plane stress, change with rotation. This change is analyzed by considering a prismatic element within the cube. As the element rotates, the stress components acting on it—both normal and shearing stresses—change in magnitude and orientation. This change is quantified using trigonometric functions of the rotation angle, relating the forces acting on the rotated element's...

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Aesthetic Surgery
  • Breast Augmentation Techniques

Background:

  • Dual-plane breast augmentation was the traditional standard.
  • Prepectoral placement was previously reserved for specific cases.
  • Advances in implant technology and clinical experience prompt reevaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To document the shift in breast augmentation practice from dual-plane to prepectoral placement.
  • To analyze trends using retrospective data and clinical insights.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of primary breast augmentations from 2009-2024.
  • Comparison of augmentation plane selection between two distinct periods (2009-2020 and 2021-2024).
  • Analysis of surgical rationale, patient demographics, and implant volumes.

Main Results:

  • Prepectoral (subglandular) placement increased significantly over time.
  • Usage rose from 3.25% (2009-2020) to 21.7% (2021-2022) and 42.2% (2023-2024).
  • This trend indicates growing surgeon confidence and patient preference for prepectoral augmentation.

Conclusions:

  • Implant plane selection requires individualization based on patient anatomy and goals.
  • The rise of prepectoral augmentation reflects evolving surgical strategies.
  • Appropriate prepectoral placement can achieve favorable outcomes without muscle manipulation.
