Adduction

Bone Types Long Bones: Long bones are hard, dense bones that provide strength and mobility. The thigh bone the femur is a long bone. Some bones in the fingers are classified as long bones, even though they are short in length. Short Bones: Their primary function is to provide support and stability with little to no movement. Examples of these bones include the tarsals in the foot and the carpals in the hand. Flat bones: These bones are expanded into broad, flat plates, as in the cranium, the…

cushion can be implemented to reduce forces where fat pad atrophy has occurred. Sagittal Plane theory: A study by Baliunas et al. (2002), discovered that subjects with OA had a tendency to have a greater than normal peak external knee adduction moment. Clearly this deviation of knee alignment in the sagittal plane has caused there to be extra stress on the medial compartment of the knee which can lead to knee osteoarthritis.…

Central pontine myelinolysis (CPM) is often a feared complication of overly aggressive correction of hyponatremia (defined as < 135 mEq/L).1 Current guidelines1,2,3 dictate a slow correction of sodium, generally not exceeding 8-10 mEq/24 hrs to prevent CPM.1 CPM is a non-inflammatory demyelinating disease characterized by the loss of myelin in the base of the pons and carries a poor prognosis, often times resulting in death. We present a case in which an elderly gentleman was admitted for…

Muscular skeletal system Flat bones = blue (There are flat bones in the skull and the pelvis. The function of flat bones is to protect internal organs such as the brain, heart, and pelvic organs. Flat bones are somewhat flattened, and can provide protection, like a shield; flat bones can also provide large areas of attachment for muscles.) [3] Long bones = red (The long bones, longer than they are wide, include the femur (the longest bone in the body) as well as relatively…
