Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View01:14

Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View

5.2K
The superior view of the cranium shows the frontal and paired parietal bones.
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Trait and State Self-Esteem

11.5K
The term self-esteem is often used generically, to refer to how people feel about themselves. However, according to research, there are three distinct constructs that should not be used interchangeably (Brown & Marshall, 2006).

Regression Toward the Mean01:52

Regression Toward the Mean

7.2K
Regression toward the mean (“RTM”) is a phenomenon in which extremely high or low values—for example, and individual’s blood pressure at a particular moment—appear closer to a group’s average upon remeasuring. Although this statistical peculiarity is the result of random error and chance, it has been problematic across various medical, scientific, financial and psychological applications. In particular, RTM, if not taken into account, can interfere when...

Self-Schemas

36.4K
In general, a schema is a mental construct consisting of a cluster or collection of related concepts (Bartlett, 1932). There are many different types of schemata, and they all have one thing in common: schemata are a method of organizing information that allows the brain to work more efficiently. When a schema is activated, the brain makes immediate assumptions about the person or object being observed.

Summary

Posterior tibial tendon injuries can cause significant athletic disability. Early diagnosis and individualized treatment are crucial for athletes to prevent long-term issues and return to sport.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Sports Medicine
  • Musculoskeletal Imaging

Background:

  • Posterior tibial tendon dysfunction is an uncommon cause of athletic disability.
  • Timely diagnosis and awareness are key to preventing prolonged athlete absence from sports.
  • Imaging plays a vital role in diagnosing posterior tibial tendon issues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the importance of recognizing posterior tibial tendon problems in athletes.
  • To differentiate tendon tears in younger athletes from those in older adults.
  • To emphasize individualized treatment strategies based on tear type and deformity.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on posterior tibial tendon injuries in athletes.
  • Analysis of diagnostic imaging modalities for posterior tibial tendon pathology.

  • Comparison of treatment approaches for different types of tendon tears and deformities.

    • Main Results:

    • Posterior tibial tendon tears in young athletes differ from those in middle-aged and older adults.
    • Individualized treatment is essential, considering tear characteristics and the degree of deformity.
    • Differential diagnosis should include conditions like posterior tibial tendon dislocation, accessory navicular, and exertional compartment syndrome.

    Conclusions:

    • Early identification and accurate diagnosis of posterior tibial tendon injuries are critical for athletes.
    • Tailored treatment plans improve outcomes and facilitate a quicker return to athletic activity.
    • Recognizing and differentiating from other conditions is vital for effective management.
