cause, which may be trauma infection, hemarthrosis, osteocrosis or some other condition. Osteoarthritis is present worldwide as a heterogenous group of conditions that lead to slow progression of the joint structures with integrity of articular cartilage and underlying bone. Osteoarthritis can lead to deformity and loss of function the underlying problem in this case is osteoarthritis, even though the diagnosis only says that the osteoarthritis is in the sacrum region of the spine both…

Cantu Syndrome is a rare condition that excesses the growth of hair, exclusive facial oestrogen. As well as other anomaly this disorder conflict against affected individuals, abnormal development of bones enlarges heart and cartilage. People with Cantu Syndrome are very hairy people as well as the most affected abnormal people. It starts affecting shortly after birth in babies with PDA “abnormal buildup of fluid around the heart and high blood pressure in the blood vessels that carry blood from…

disease, which results from mechanical and biological events that destabilize the normal processes of degradation and synthesis of articular cartilage chondrocytes, extracellular matrix, and subchondral bone. These changes include increased water content, decreased proteoglycan content, and altered collagen matrix, all leading to the deterioration of articular cartilage. Osteoarthritis can be classified into primary and secondary types Primary osteoarthritis generally is a polyarticular…

trait is sexually dimorphic because for males the voice pitch has the tendency to be lower and this because the ‘adam’s apple’ is a thicker layer of cartilage that influence the vocal cords in males along with higher testosterone levels predict low voice men.. For females, the voice pitch tends to be lower because without this extra layers of cartilage makes the vocal cords have a higher pitch and also with higher estrogen levels enables a higher pitch voice. Sexual selection is the dominant…

It is a systemic disease which not only damages the joints but may also affect other vital organs like the heart and lungs. Osteoarthritis (OA) – This type of arthritis is caused by damage on the cartilage that lines the joints. This results to frictional damage on the joint tissues which in manifests as stiffness, inflammation, swelling, and joint pain. It is most commonly seen as a result of overuse of the joints like those involve in sports and…

felt an intense pop in their knee before the intense pain hit them. The knee will swell and she will not be able to put weight on that leg. Other parts of the knee, including the menisci and the articular cartilage may also be damaged. Even in young people, doctors say the articular cartilage can’t heal, and orthopedic experts say this leads to the arthritis of the knee, often 10-15 years after the injury. Females are not only more likely to develop osteoarthritis after an ACL injury; they…

Often, when on the subject of whether or not animals should be used in animal research, it generally sparks up a debate. Some argue that animal testing does not work and the practice is cruel to animals while others argue that the use of animal research has produced tremendous medical breakthroughs and should not be stopped. Yes, animal testing has resulted in great medical discoveries and could be used to potentially discover more, however, new technological advances in medicine such as the 3D…

Muscles bone and joints As we age so does our bodies, changes in the body is a result of changes muscles bone and joints. Our muscles will weaken, joins will ache and our bones will become brittle. Although this is a natural part of aging, how we treat our bodies now will affect how our body function in the future. Things like having a physically activate lifestyle, not doing a lot of physically activities, how we eat. What we eat will affect how well your body function when you age.…

This is known as a genetic disease that usually occurs in 1 out of 10000. This disease is known to affect the growing ends of bones. This disease will prevent ossification which is a process in which bones elongate because of the deposition of cartilage. This disease is also known by the name Fairbank’s disease. Introduction During the whole course of the report we will see all the major causes of Fairbanks disease. We will explore how the disease actually works in the body and look into all…

constructing a part of a protein group called bone morphogenetic protein. This protein is found in many tissues, as well as muscles and cartilage. ACVR1 helps control the development and growth of the bones and muscles. Researchers believe that a mutation may change the shape of the receptor, disturbing the mechanisms that control the activity, causing overgrowth of bone and cartilage. The formation causes loss of mobility in the joints. You are unable to walk, stand, or move any ligaments. You…
