introduction: spinal malalignment is a common problem in the present societies and forward head posture is one of the most common dysfunction in cervical region. the purpose of the present study is to evaluate effect of stabilization exercises in improving of forward head posture. materials and methods: twenty six female students with forward head posture in age range of 20-27 years old partici...

The vestibular receptors in the labyrinth receive innervation from centrifugally projecting efferent fibers. The influence of these efferents on information processing by vestibular afferents in primates has not been determined. One commonly held notion is that efferent activation during large-amplitude, active head movements would result in an increase in the resting discharge rate and in a re...

We have reviewed 70 patients with bilateral simultaneous total hip arthroplasties to determine the rate of failure and to compare polyethylene wear and osteolysis between an implant with a cobalt-chrome head and Hylamer liner with that of a zirconia head and Hylamer liner. The mean thickness of the polyethylene liner was 11.0 mm (8.8 to 12.2) in the hip with a zirconia head and 10.7 mm (8.8 to ...

Six major and seven minor diagnostic criteria have been developed by the Japanese Investigation Committee for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). We have carried out a multicentre study to clarify these. We studied prospectively 277 hips in 222 patients, from six hospitals, who had ONFH and other hip pathology and from whom histological material was available. We identified five criteria ...

good perception of relation-sheep among plant morphological traits and resistance to fusarium head blight of wheat is quite effective to make a good success in plant breeding project. in this experiment this relation has been checked out. the morphological traits were included plant height, peduncle length and spike density. we used 28 spring wheat genotypes and 2 durum genotypes. there was sig...
