The human shoulder is made up of three bones: the clavicle (collarbone), the scapula (shoulder blade), and the humerus (upper arm bone) as well as associated muscles, ligaments and tendons. The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and their tendons that act to stabilize the shoulder. The four muscles of the rotator cuff are over half of the seven scapulohumeral muscles. The four muscles are the supraspinatus muscle, the infraspinatus muscle, teres minor muscle, and the subscapularis muscle. The…
Colostomy, Adult A colostomy is a surgical procedure in which part of the colon is attached to the front of the abdomen (abdominal wall). The colon is the last part of the digestive tract. It is where water is absorbed from digested food to form stool (feces). A colostomy is done to redirect stool through an opening (stoma) in the abdominal wall. You may need this surgery if you have a medical condition that prevents stool from leaving your body through the usual opening (rectum). A bag will…
Muscle tissue is one of the four tissues types that exist in the human body. There are three different muscle tissues, skeletal, cardiac, and smooth. Skeletal muscle tissue cells are long, striated, and have many nuclei. Cardiac muscle tissue, just like the skeletal is also in striations. These cells are short and branched. Unlike, the skeletal muscle tissue these cells die single nucleated. They are connected by intercalated discs. Smooth muscle tissue is not striated. Its Cells are short and…
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION Fifty two patients with suspected disc prolapse were selected as per inclusion criteria. All patients were studied prospectively by meticulous clinical examination followed by plane X-ray and MRI. Clinical findings and investigations methods were then co related with surgical findings in order to evaluate the usefulness of these methods in the management of the disease. The following conclusions were drawn 1. Maximum incidence of disc herniation was in 4th and 5th…
Herpes simplex 2 virus (HSV-2) is a DNA virus that stems from the Herpesviridae family and belongs to Simplexvirus genus (Talaro, & Chess, 2015, p. 169). Herpesviridae consists of more than 100 herpesviruses that occur in animals; eight human heran pesviruses are known, with three subfamilies: Alphaherpesvirinae, Betaherpesvirinae, and Gammaherpesvirinae. Herpes simplex virus-2 is part of the Alphaherpesvirinae subfamily (Norberg, Bergström, Rekabdar, Lindh, & Liljeqvist, 2004). One of the…
The Aminata muscaria is a very toxic plant to dogs and cats. If ingested, dogs can result in acute gastrointestinal distress that precedes a potentially life-threatening central neurologic syndrome characterized by seizures, tremors, and somnolence (Rossmeisl, Jr.,Blodgett, Jones, Higgins, Ellis, 2006). In a case study three dogs were presented with the toxic mushroom Amanita muscaria that developed respiratory arrest. Of the three dogs, one was euthanized and the remaining two recovered fully…
A tendon is tissue that attaches muscle to over the counter bone. it's miles flexible, hard and fibrous and it can withstand tension. A ligament extends from bone to bone at a joint, whileover the counter a tendon extends from muscle to bone. Tendons and muscle mass work over the counter and exert a pulling force. Tendons and ligaments are tough and fibrous, however over-the-countery may be called tender tissue, due to overover the counter overover the counter smooth compared with bone. If…
abnormalities of the heart. These include defective heart valves, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (enlarged heart muscle), holes or abnormal openings in the walls of the heart (septal defects), aortic aneurysm, or other congenital heart disease. This causes blood flow into the heart to be really slow and does not allow the affected person to live a long healthy life. Treatment of heart murmurs If a septal defect is causing the heart murmurs, corrective surgery may be required. If heart valve…
1) Mount Elgon was created from a leftover shield volcano. 2) Mount Elgon is located on the border between Uganda and Kenya. It’s in an island of rain forest in the center of Africa and it is the widest mountain in Africa. 3) Because the author wanted to show Monet’s relationship with the environment around him. 4) Not very far, because once the hot virus is on the plane, it can infect everyone on the plane, and go anywhere else to infect those places. I think this is important, because that…
caused ischemic stroke. Description of Pathology: Ischemic strokes account for 87% of all stroke incidents, making this type of stroke the most common. Ischemic strokes occur as a result of a blood clot plugging or obstructing an artery carrying blood to the brain. This keeps oxygen and nutrient rich blood from flowing into the brain. If this blockage persists for more than a few minutes the brain cells may begin to die and serious damage can be done. Due to this, immediate medical treatment…
